The Bamileke in the Cameroon Grasslands constitute one of the most dynamic social migrant groups distinguished for space occupation, business creation, expansion and a characteristic phenomenon of breaking new economic grounds. This paper seeks to examine the economic implantation of the Bamileke in the Bamenda Grasslands. It argues that coming from a background of business inventiveness, the Bamileke were shrewd entrepreneurs with flexible agencies who smartly identified, explored and exploited grey areas of economic opportunities in their host communities. In order to achieve this goal, the people to a large extent benefited from an accommodating environment, a tradition of solidarity network mediated through, but not reduced to a scheme of collective financial pooling which was mutually beneficial to all those who nursed interest in business activities. The article further contends that the Bamileke economic miracle was a product of humble beginnings in petty trading, modesty in winning confidence, chanced situations, foresight for prospective gains and entrepreneurial spirit in taking and cushioning risk through multiple tactics of diversification. The paper made appeal to some selected primary and secondary sources and the conclusions were drawn after a qualitative historical analysis.
