MEET ONE OF OUR SCHOOL BUSINESSES

This group of enterprising students from Nigeria used the
business guides to set up their own mini-mart called 'Greeny-G'.
With the support of their teacher they carried out fun business
activities such as market research and competitor analysis and
gained key life skills such as teamwork and critical thinking in the
process. They even made over $200 in profit!
