Proposed Increase of Import Duties on Human Hair is not helping

The Finance Act, 2019 is published on the Special Gazette of the United Republic of Tanzania. To increase Government spending a new Harmonized System Code or HS code was introduced. These codes are used to classify traded goods. The new HS code 0501.00.00 Human hair, unworked whether or not washed or scoured; waste of human hair and has an Excise Rate of :

10 percent if locally manufactured or

25 percent if imported.

At the time of writing this post, September 2019 The Finance Act, 2019 was still in the phase of first reading and not yet implemented.

Proposed tax will not stop women of buying hair extensions and wigs in Tanzania

The proposed increase of tax on human hair is of course not helping to start a business with the Best Beauty Products in Tanzania. This attempt to keep hold of traditional values will perhaps delay the change in the Tanzanian Society, but never stop. Many women already wear wigs and hair extensions because they feel it makes them feel and look good.

The business environment in Tanzania remains challenging but offers opportunities

The World Bank sees it is still rather difficult to do business in Tanzania. The biggest struggle for businesses are in the areas of:
– trading across borders,
– starting a business and
– paying taxes.

To import goods into Tanzania it is well known the complicated documentation requirements are a main hurdle. Regarding taxes, start ups sometimes have to pay taxes based upon estimated revenues, even before commencing operations.

The goal of the government is to become a middle-income country by 2025. This goal requires reforms. One of the most important reform is on the increase of the role of women in the economy. Reduce child marriage and early childbearing plus more education for girls will help the country to reduce the poverty and increase the average income.

Start Your Beauty Store now

With the aim of the Government to become a middle-income country, and the planned reforms for girls, this is the time to prepare the launch of your hair business. You should not wait until everybody has discovered the attractive and growing hair business. This is the time to grab your place on the market. So do not wait.

Start with obtaining the right education, both on language (English) and business skills.

And invest time to find the best hair wholesale company.

With the best hair and the right education you will become financially independent. And have a fun business with the girls of Tanzania talking hair all day, with or without the higher tax on human hair.

“5 Reasons Why Ethiopian Women Shouldn’t Wear Weave” was the title of a blogpost that draw my attention last night. There is a growing number of women buying hair extensions in Ethiopia. It seems a many buy the hair extensions on Alibaba. If you love hair and want to make money, time for you to start selling hair extensions in Ethiopia.

First analyze the market needs and opportunities in Ethiopia

You can start selling synthetic hair or try to aim at the high-end market and offer high grade human hair extensions. It is important to define your clients and their spending power. Do not buy expensive human hair in an area with clients who are only able to buy lower priced hair.

A lot of hair brought into Ethiopia comes with people from traveling abroad. This is not a stable source if you have a growing hair business. If you want to start a successful hair business in Ethiopia, you need to set up a reliable supply chain. Find reliable hair suppliers abroad to ensure a constant flow of hair. If your hair business is growing, you can not afford to wait for your uncle to arrive back from the Middle East to bring some hair with him.

  • Do ask for the struggle they face when buying hair extensions,
  • where do they search for the hair and
  • what is their opinion about the hair extensions other hair stores offer.

Make sure you have the contact details, phonenumber, email or social media, of everybody you spoke to about the hair extensions. They can become your first clients when you are ready to sell extensions.

There are a couple of online stores you can visit to learn more about your business opportunities in Ethiopia.

You can enjoy from this growth, if you are in Addis Ababa, Gondar or Adama lor your own town. In Addis Ababa you can even imagine having plenty of opportunities to start selling hair extensions.

Find Reliable Hair Suppliers Negotiate a discount for your next order

When you negotiate with the hair extensions suppliers about your trial order, try to get a discount for your first wholesale order. Show them you are serious about selling hair extensions and will only get back if the hair and the conditions are good.

Check if you will have to pay custom duties if you import hair extensions into Ethiopia. This avoids unpleasant surprises if you agreed a price with your clients for the extensions and you must pay a 20 or 30 percent to the government. Especially if you did not include this charge in your selling price.

The Kickoff of your Hair Extensions Business

I recommend organizing a hair extensions party as a kick off. If you are one of the first to organize a hair extensions party in your area, you will get a lot of attention.

You do not need much money to organize the party and people will buy your hair at the party and you can see what they like and what not.

Grow your hair business

If you managed to sell your first wholesale order you can invest in a next but bigger order. If you go step by step you will not risk anything and only benefit from a growing number of people buying and talking about your hair extensions.

Good luck selling hair extensions in Ethiopia.

Answer: Good to read you already bought the hair, I would advice to first perform a market survey, find out what your clients are looking for. Go to a place (mall, market, the town center), where your can find your target clients. Make sure you look great with your own hair and start to ask them: if they buy hair extensions, the type of hair, if they buy online or in salons, what they like in the service of other shops find out the name of the shops they like and what they do not like. We have a form that goes with our eBook with more questions. The goal is to find out what your potential clients like, so you can focus on that type of hair and for example the service and price level.

Before you order wholesale hair, check the shops analyse how they offer the hair and what you can do different, more in line with the needs of your target group.

Now you know who your target group is and where they normally go to buy hair, also on the internet, and build your marketing presence around this.

Make sure you collect the email address, and use an email program to start communicating with your potential clients, make sure they already start to get interested in your offer. By doing so, the day your shop will officially open it´s doors, you will have more clients then you could ever imagine!
