Small/medium firms serve local/regional markets; majors have national distribution. Barriers to entry are moderate (capital, NAFDAC certification, distribution).
The business is viable given market size, growth trajectory, and manageable production complexity. Success hinges on quality control, branding, distribution efficiency, and regulatory compliance.
