I have some ideas/questions that I would like to share:
 
- I guess you should aim at having all your production in countries with low salaries and low tax rate (Africa... le fric, c'est chic...)
Are you affected by population average level of education for production (for qualification of the workers)?
 

- Should you develop your original business (increase number of workers / machines) like in production or building other things?

Hi. Yes If you build a factory in a developing country, you will need to train the workers non-stop in case you want to upgrade to higher technology levels. Because if you don't train them, you will pay a lot more salaries for high qualification workers there than workers in educated area. That is why a lot of black belts (companies with assets >10b) choose to set up the manufacturing base in Turkey and UK, to pay less salaries to HQ workers.
 
I don't have big factories (for e.g. 2500 workers) as many black belts do, so I don't know how training costs scale for big factories. There must be a good reason they prefer Turkey/UK as a production base, but for my smaller factories I found it's much cheaper to pay for training than running them in a high tax high wage area.
 
The uncle's gifts are good to give you a head start. Once you are financially stable, you should investigate on the markets to determine how profitable your products are compared to others, and make your decision. Yes

Despite the difficulty of finding supply you still think that this is where there is the best opportunities?

Its much easier to have a trading company - ie. buying finished goods and selling in your stores, but as you grow you will run out of goods eventually, and have to start to produce your own goods.
 
So as Light said, stick with sales, but if you have spare capacity then produce as much as you can.
