African Entrepreneurs Embracing the China Opportunity

African Entrepreneurs Embracing the China Opportunity: "The number of African entrepreneurs living in China has been growing in recent years thanks to the flourishing relationship between China and Africa.

With trade among China and African countries continuing to rise, a good number of Africans are embracing what they see as opportunities in China to sell products produced in their home countries.

Julias Bob Kibua is a Kenyan entrepreneur.

"I came to China sometime in 2007, and my business is coffee and tea."

Kibua, who has lived in China for 4-years, says while the opportunities are out there, estabilishing his business hasn't come without challenges.

"Basically, it is like we are training the Chinese people because they still don't know much about coffee and especially the old generation. But the young generation, these days are even dating for coffee in the coffee shops, meaning our coffee product is just getting a mileage in China. About tea, they still worship their green tea. However there are some of them who really enjoy our black tea from home.""
