Nasandanz.

First off you need to do an in depth,online search of whichever country you are interested in setting up your business.

You need to find out how to go about getting set up, government requirements for visa,permits, banking,taxes,minimum investment funds etc etc.Some countries require you to have a local partner.

For cost living numbeo.com this site will give you information on many countries and places in the world.

Hi,

I know that this post is a little bit old.

In general the situation in Mozambique / Tanzania / Kenya. However, Is that the need for any services is so large and the growth so rapid that almost any small business is thriving.

As it is needed to be thoughtful, it is better to actually learn by doing. Unless you are investing large amounts to get started.
