The United Kingdom (UK) and Canada are two of the greatest destinations for Nigerians to visit for career prospects and other lucrative side hustles. As these advanced nations provide different visa programmes with blue-collar occupations for people to relocate, Nigerians engage in side hustles or skill sets to supplement their income.
Below is a list:
Photography
It is a lucrative job in Canada, as people seek to capture moments for themselves and their loved ones. This particular side hustle can earn these professionals up to CA$200 in 30 minutes without interfering with their main duties. This skill can be used anywhere in Canada.
“The number one skill set would be photography. It pays higher than a conventional job. You could make CA$200 in 30 minutes while earning the same amount in a typical 9-to-5 job. It’s really lucrative. And it could be anyplace in Canada. It is determined by your level of experience in photography. “I’ve seen quotes from CA$200 to CA$1000 for a one-hour shoot,” the insider claimed.
Catering and Hairdressing
Catering and hairdressing are side hustles that generate cash for Nigerian women living in Canada. These two abilities can earn you up to CA$100 per service, and the best part is that you can use them in any province in Canada.
The Canadian source went on to say, “Some women work in hairdressing or catering. Also, anywhere in Canada. Not confined by location. Patrons for all of these can be of any race. Catering and hairdressing can start at CA$100.
Food delivery
Side hustle
According to the Canadian source, meal delivery pays well in Canada, as do product sales and importation. The majority of males work in food delivery, which can pay them at least CA$20 an hour.”There are more, but these are the most common that I’ve encountered. However, this is subjective. Some also sell items, import from Nigeria, and sell meals. Then there’s food delivery. That’s about number one for guys. The average hourly wage is $20. “You choose your hours and when you work based on how many deliveries you can make in an hour plus tips,” the insider explained.
