As an entrepreneur… We all know their are some things we have to look into before venturing into any business. With this, we are going to start by talking about

The following are the steps we are going to discuss..

Business location

Startup tips

Know about roofing sheets cutting and storage

Own a warehouse (either large or semi large)

Technology

In every business we do.. The business location is a key thing. But in the aspect of roofing sheet business, there are some strategic location that really moves the business

: Number one in the location is (new sites)

: Secondly (developing areas)

: And semi developed areas

: These three locations I mentioned are best among the best to establish this roofing sheet business and I can confidently tell you that your profit will rise beyond your expectations

• Business Location

It is best to be located where you can be easily accessible, located and called upon when there is an emergency. Location boosts your business progress, so a choice of location and how the environmental condition would affect the business should be deliberated before choosing a particular location .

• Startup Tips

To get started, first and foremost is to have a business plan. Secure a good location that will favour your business, certify and license your business, choose a niche, know the total cost needed, know the area you want to apply your business. Know your customer in and out.

• Know About Roofing sheets cutting and storage:

Also choose a niche you want to focus on. It could be the production of roofing sheets or roofing contract. Aluminum Roofing sheets contract focuses or specializes in either industrial building or residential jobs.

• .own a warehouse (either large or semi large) The warehouse should have space for storage of equipment, administrative block, and loading dock. The length, volume, and size of the sheets require ample space for molding.



• Technology There are machines, equipment needed when venturing into this line of business. Before embarking on the sales, there are heavy machines that are used to produce aluminum roofing sheets.

Some of the machines are long-span roof corrugated machine, high-speed roll former machine and corrugated machine with advance mental roll, curving machine, colour coating machine (which is the metal processing equipment).

……After having your laid down strategies from the above steps

The following are the next face inorder to have a high level of profit maximisation

As we all know that the primary aim of every business is profit maximisation

* Let's talk about

1.finance needed

2.certification and licence

3. Management

4.staffing (because you can't do it all alone)

5. Marketing

6.Advertising strategy

1. Finance needed:You need a lot of money to start the business. You can acquire money through business loans (thank God we now have interest free loan)

The loan can be asset based on collateral and recommended on your present account balance. There are other ways of sorting funds to start your business.

2.Registration involves company registration as a limited liability company including shareholders and company structure.

Certification makes your business transaction legal, it covers permits to operate your roofing business and other environmental concerns.

The certification may include safety protocol, profession membership in related groups and staff training, quality of raw materials used, local Government requirements etc.

3. Management : this is an important aspect to take into consideration is the management of the business. It is very crucial and vital because it determines the longevity and reputation of your business firm.

Hierarchy is of utmost importance so that there can be orderliness and order. An order is passed from the managing director and passes through different ranking officials before it gets to the least ranked worker .

4. Staffing: You need a good working team that is innovative, creative and committed to the task. Hence the need to employ capable workers who can promote the business to the next level.

The individuals you employ determines the success or downfall of your business, it should be treated with caution and care.

5. Marketing: One basic thing to bear in mind is that the quality of your product and services is the best marketing tool you have. Now how do you go about marketing your business? You can use referrals, warranties, and discount to get the customer on board, you can come up with special promotion packages.

And lastly

6. Advertising strategies: You need a good marketing strategy and list of actions. The list of action should have objectives within the time frame. In order to succeed you need to know your customer base and meet their need.

The marketing strategy should cover sales, referrals, budget. You need to know the actual strength and weakness of your business or product to align it with expectations of your customers.

• Now to the last phase of the lecture

And believe me it's actually the place that explains the profitability of the business

1. The Demand Analysis, Competition, And Opportunities.

Just like I said from the beginning that virtually everyone wants to have a house of his own and as we all know people tend to change the roof of their house after some years due to rust,weakness or change of the roofing sheet.



Property always appreciates with time giving the investor good returns for his money. Construction and refurbishing of work on new and existing buildings are always ongoing.

This is because roofs are constantly repaired and replaced in buildings. Thus the high demand for roofs makes roofing sheets a lucrative business as earlier stated.

The profitability: No reasonable investor would like to invest in a project that will not yield profits. if an investor wants to invest, the first thing that comes to the mind should be in what way is the investment going to be profitable to him.

Investing in roofing sheets business in Nigeria is going to yield a great profit if it is successful.

• In conclusion, with all I've talked about here tonight, I'm glad to tell us that roofing sheet business is a very lucrative business in Nigeria with high level of return on investment

Thank you all for your time and opportunity to deliver this lecture.*Seminar Recap On The Treasured Entrepreneurship Association TEA Hall Of Wealth General Active Group Page 1 & 2 Held On Thursday 21st Of February 2019*

👉🏼THEME:

❤ *COOKING GAS BUSINESS*

💚 *HOW TO GET STARTED*

🎤SPEAKER/FACILITATOR/DISCUSSANT

🗣MR ASUNI ADESHOLA

A BUSINESS COACH,A SOCIAL ENTREPRENEUR,A WRITER,AN AUTHOR AND A PUBLISHER….

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen…..

You are all welcome for tonight seminar

It is indeed a privilege for me to take you through tonight seminar

It is Good News that more Nigerians are beginning to use cooking gas for various domestic cooking purposes

This will help decrease the problem of deforestation and help to conserve our natural forest and prevent potential disaster that us inherent with desert encroachment such as erosion apart from the environment benefits

The increase number of people especially in urban areas who are using cooking gas has created good business opportunity for smart entrepreneurs

Who can now trade in cooking and cooking gas equipments to make good profits…

Cooking Gas Business is very very profitable and you don't have to break the bank before you can start

With just #600 000 you will get your business set up and ready to go with almost everything necessary in place…

And this is a big business that any one who is into it can be proud of

*HOW EXACTLY CAN ONE START COOKING GAS BUSINESS IN NIGERIA*

Before we go into the details let us take a look at the profit potential in this business as well as the risk involved…

*HOW PROFITABLE IS COOKING GAS BUSINESS IN NIGERIA*

Lets take the 12.5kg cylinder as a case study…

The Average Profit you make from 12.5kg cylinder of cooking Gas is #900
You buy an unit cost of empty cylinder at #8500–#8600

And sell for between #9500 to #9600

If you sell ten cylinders in a day at the average profit of #900

You will be making #900 in a day,in a month you will be making #900×300 cylinders for 30 days = #270 000

Isn't this Amazing???

This is relatively the lowest profit you can make in cooking gas business if you are in a respectable position where you can get a good patronage…

Most people make much more than what I calculated here…

So it's not in anyway by exaggeration for a business you started with #600 000

#270 000 profit in a month is a super profit by all standards…

Imagine if you invest more resources and take it higher by selling other accessories of cooking gas…

Your profit margin will be much more mouth watering…

Gas companies,both the suppliers and retailers are making good money as they are smiling to the bank in this business….

You too can become one of them today if you act now…..

*THE POTENTIAL RISK INVOLVED IN COOKING GAS BUSINESS*

Every business has its peculiar setbacks and the biggest risk in cooking gas business is fire explosion which is very common due to the high inflammable nature of liquified natural gas…

That isn't much a problem though since it can be mitigated or even avoided,to be able to curtail this,you need to be alert at all times to detect when there is leakage in those cylinders…

As leakages is one of the major cause of fire and explosion

You also need to buy a good fire extinguishers that can be very handy in time of minor fire outbreak…

Another risk in this business is government regulations…

Should government decide to increase the price of LPG today..

Some customers may find it difficult to take and have to go back to using kerosene,charcoal, or firewood…

If that happens you loose some patronage and customers and your sales will drop…

However Government is always trying to reduce the price of cooking gas in other to encourage the usage and discourage deforestation….

Now that you are aware of the risk involved in the business and you think it is what you can handle????

How do you get to start the business and what are the things you need to have or put in place???

Lets Proceed to answer these questions…….

*WHAT YOU NEED TO START COOKING GAS BUSINESS*

(1) *START UP CAPITAL*

According to experts(people who are already in the business) you can start conveniently with #600 000 and be able to buy more than 20cylinders,get a shop and buy the initial products…

The cost of shop in this regard depend on the location, if you decide to locate your business in a highbrow area

You will spend much more money to get a shop but the cost will be well worth it….

(2) *GET A TRAINING*

You must get attached to any experience retailer or even depot for about 4 days to learn all the major important rudiments you need to learn on how to refill the cylinder,how transfer,how to change valve and everything necessary that you might know about the business from mechanical to electrical parts of the business….

You equally need to know where and how to buy cylinders as well as the practical safety measures in this busines….

If you are interested in this business,you can join up with *SEA* 4 day outdoor training on cooking gas business in Nigeria

(3) *RENT A SHOP*

After your training is completed and you now have the required knowledge

The next step is to get a shop…

The class of people that use cylinder gas cooker are more in urban areas…

Almost every part of Lagos is good for business but some places are better than others

(4) *MARKETING*

When your business is up and running you need to employ every marketing strategy you can muster to increase your profitability and stay afloat

*IN CONCLUSION*

As it was stated earlier

You need less than #600 000 to start

The profit margin per sale of 12.5kg cylinder is about #900 which means you have to be in an area where the threshold…

That the population can afford you to do a good volume of sales per day/week

A delivery vehicle from the point of purchase plant to your intended location will be an added advantage and of great value to the business…

Another way you can increase sales is a reduction of your sale price Instead of making #900 you can decide to make #600 or #700

That will increase your turnover fast..

Marketing on a door to door basis and home delivery is also not a bad strategy to employ

But remember that new businesses always come with challenges and patience is the key…

With all things set up according to plan

You are in good business…

A business that is capable of giving you all the money you want

I have a friend who is doing this gas business and he is doing fantastically well as you too can do even better….

I wish you success

I hereby rest my case……*RECAP OF TODAY’S SEMINAR(17TH SEPTEMBER 2017)ON THE TREASURED ENTREPRENEURS ASSOCIATION TEA HALL OF WEALTH WHATSAPP GROUP PAGE*

SNAIL BREEDS/SPECIES IN SNAIL FARMING IN NIGERIA

When it comes to snail farming in Nigeria, there are 3 popular types of snail species/breeds common for snail breeding in Nigeria. There are often 3 major types of snails used for snail breeding in Nigeria and Africa in general this is due to their commercial viability.

1. Archachatina Marginata (AM)
2. Achatina Achatina (AA)
3. Achatina Fulica (AF)

(1) Archachatina Marginata (AM)

The Archachatina Marginata AM is peculiar to West Africa and it’s popularly known as the giant African snail. It is the largest of all the snail specie . They can grow up to 20cm long in size and can produce up to 5 to 12 eggs in a single clutch and they can produce 2 to 3 clutches in a year and can live up to 10 years. It usually takes between 21 to 32 days for the Archachatina Marginata (AM) eggs to hatch, The AM eggs is harder and bigger compared to other species of snails. Archachatina Marginata (AM) takes about 8 to 9 months before it starts the laying of eggs. It is usually prized high because of its large size.

(2) Achatina Achatina (AA)
Achatina Achatina (AA) is d 2nd largest in the world and the second most popular breed in Nigeria and other countries and can lay up to 200 to 500 eggs in a single clutch and can lay up to 3 to 4 clutches in a year, it also takes 21 to 32 days for the Achatina Achatina (AA) eggs to hatch. It takes between 6 to 7 months before the Achatina Achatina (AA) starts laying of eggs.

(3). Achatina Fulica (AF)
Achatina Fulica (AF): The AF is the 3rd largest and can lay up to 200 to 500 eggs in a clutch and can produce up to 3 to 4 clutches a year. It is the smallest of the breeding type of snail. It is also the third specie used in snail breeding in Nigeria.

PROCESSES INVOLVED IN SNAIL FARMING IN NIGERIA – HELICULTURE

1. Education: This is where many farmers fail because they hardly know much about the business they are venturing into. So first of all, get all the knowledge about the business, understand the business idea, breed type, problem you might face, disease, feeds, plants and vegetable, do’s and don’ts, marketing, viablity and the different challenges that may arise in the process of running the business. Once you gatherer enough knowledge about snail farming in Nigeria you are good to go.You can also visit other snail farms to get an idea of operating a snail farm or let an experienced person guide you.After this then move on to the next stage.

2. Physical Environment of the Farm: One of the most important factors in snail farming is the physical environment of your snail farm. Your snail farm must be properly chosen and selected and situated in an environment that is free from predators, diseases and bacteria that may be harmful to your snail farm. Make sure there are plants or tress to shield the snails from direct sunlight and winds.

3. The Soil Type and texture: The soil plays a major role in the life cycle of the snail, because the snail derives the calcium and other nutrients needed for the formation of its shell from the soil and also the soil plays a major role in the hatching of the snail eggs. Because snails bury their eggs inside the soil for hatching. So therefore the best soil used for snail breeding is the type that has low water retention capacity that is, it doesn’t retain too much water. A perfect soil type for snail breeding is sandy-loamy soil.

4. The pen for snail: When building a pen for snail farming, you need to ask yourself the type of snail farming you intend to practice, are you looking at an intensive or extensive farm system. Are you looking at a very big farm, a commercial farm, free range or a caged system?You must ask of these before you construct your housing unit.Moreso,how many snails you are looking at breeding determines the dimension of the housing unit.

5. Sourcing for snails: Snails can easily be sourced either from reputable snail farms around you. Make sure they are very active and they haven’t been exposed to too much sunlight to avoid stress which might affect their survival and breeding capability. The best time to source for snails for breeding is during the raining season. Snails are known to be more active in the night and morning when it rains.

6. Building the Snail House (Snailery) – : Snail houses can vary depending on the type of snail breeding practices you intend to practice and the amount of available space at your disposal. It could vary from a little cupboard space at the back of your house to a room size pen to a full plot of land or more depending on your capacity.
When constructing a pen , you should avoid over population and give enough room for the snails to move around. Also make sure the spaces are well guarded to prevent them from attacks from rodents, ants and snakes and also to prevent the snails from escaping.
Make sure the pens are surrounded with plants that can serve as a cover crop because snails love cool and dark places.

7. Snail Foods and Feeding – Snails mostly feed on vegetables, plants and fruits. In modern farming, there are formulated feeds rich in calcium that has been specially prepared for snails which makes them grow faster.Some of these feed have been sold to many in our forum. Snails feeds on a variety natural feed crops like pawpaw leaves, cabbage and lettuce, okra leave, water leave, water melon, pawpaw, cucumber, banana and the list goes on.

8. Breeding the snail for market: Snails takes averagely between 6 to 12 months to get to marketable size when breeding with natural feed like fruits and vegetables.However with special formulated feed the growth is boosted.

9. Marketing of your snail in Nigeria: Currently the demand for snail outweighs the supply. So the market is wide and readily available as the snail farmers are not currently meeting demands. Your target markets are the market women in the markets, snail farmers, pepper soup joints, restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and snail lovers who cook them for special delicacies.

SIMPLE ANALYSIS FOR SNAIL FARMING IN NIGERIA

If you start a snail farm with 1,000 matured snails and they lay say 100 eggs each in a year. Remember that snails can go 3 clusters in a year.
Equals to 100 x 3 = 300 each (that is 300 snails each in a year) but for the purpose of this let’s put it at 150 snails per year.
Cost of 1,000 snails for breeding = 1,000 x 350 = 350,000 (Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira)
For 150 snails for 1,000 foundation stock = 150,000 snails in a year.
If after 1 year you decide to sell 100,000 snails out of the 150,000 snails, you have a total of 100,000 x 100 Naira per snail (Highly reduced price) N10,000,000 (that is ten million naira) Is that amazing?
This is a rough projection which is obtainable in a good management practices.I think with this little summary snail breeding is profitable.*Seminar Recap On The Treasured Entrepreneurs Association TEA Hall Of Wealth General Active Group Page 1 & 2*

SNAIL BREEDS/SPECIES IN SNAIL FARMING IN NIGERIA

When it comes to snail farming in Nigeria, there are 3 popular types of snail species/breeds common for snail breeding in Nigeria. There are often 3 major types of snails used for snail breeding in Nigeria and Africa in general this is due to their commercial viability.

1. Archachatina Marginata (AM)
2. Achatina Achatina (AA)
3. Achatina Fulica (AF)

(1) Archachatina Marginata (AM)

The Archachatina Marginata AM is peculiar to West Africa and it’s popularly known as the giant African snail. It is the largest of all the snail specie . They can grow up to 20cm long in size and can produce up to 5 to 12 eggs in a single clutch and they can produce 2 to 3 clutches in a year and can live up to 10 years. It usually takes between 21 to 32 days for the Archachatina Marginata (AM) eggs to hatch, The AM eggs is harder and bigger compared to other species of snails. Archachatina Marginata (AM) takes about 8 to 9 months before it starts the laying of eggs. It is usually prized high because of its large size.

(2) Achatina Achatina (AA)
Achatina Achatina (AA) is d 2nd largest in the world and the second most popular breed in Nigeria and other countries and can lay up to 200 to 500 eggs in a single clutch and can lay up to 3 to 4 clutches in a year, it also takes 21 to 32 days for the Achatina Achatina (AA) eggs to hatch. It takes between 6 to 7 months before the Achatina Achatina (AA) starts laying of eggs.

(3). Achatina Fulica (AF)
Achatina Fulica (AF): The AF is the 3rd largest and can lay up to 200 to 500 eggs in a clutch and can produce up to 3 to 4 clutches a year. It is the smallest of the breeding type of snail. It is also the third specie used in snail breeding in Nigeria.

PROCESSES INVOLVED IN SNAIL FARMING IN NIGERIA – HELICULTURE

1. Education: This is where many farmers fail because they hardly know much about the business they are venturing into. So first of all, get all the knowledge about the business, understand the business idea, breed type, problem you might face, disease, feeds, plants and vegetable, do’s and don’ts, marketing, viablity and the different challenges that may arise in the process of running the business. Once you gatherer enough knowledge about snail farming in Nigeria you are good to go.You can also visit other snail farms to get an idea of operating a snail farm or let an experienced person guide you.After this then move on to the next stage.

2. Physical Environment of the Farm: One of the most important factors in snail farming is the physical environment of your snail farm. Your snail farm must be properly chosen and selected and situated in an environment that is free from predators, diseases and bacteria that may be harmful to your snail farm. Make sure there are plants or tress to shield the snails from direct sunlight and winds.

3. The Soil Type and texture: The soil plays a major role in the life cycle of the snail, because the snail derives the calcium and other nutrients needed for the formation of its shell from the soil and also the soil plays a major role in the hatching of the snail eggs. Because snails bury their eggs inside the soil for hatching. So therefore the best soil used for snail breeding is the type that has low water retention capacity that is, it doesn’t retain too much water. A perfect soil type for snail breeding is sandy-loamy soil.

4. The pen for snail: When building a pen for snail farming, you need to ask yourself the type of snail farming you intend to practice, are you looking at an intensive or extensive farm system. Are you looking at a very big farm, a commercial farm, free range or a caged system?You must ask of these before you construct your housing unit.Moreso,how many snails you are looking at breeding determines the dimension of the housing unit.

5. Sourcing for snails: Snails can easily be sourced either from reputable snail farms around you. Make sure they are very active and they haven’t been exposed to too much sunlight to avoid stress which might affect their survival and breeding capability. The best time to source for snails for breeding is during the raining season. Snails are known to be more active in the night and morning when it rains.

6. Building the Snail House (Snailery) – : Snail houses can vary depending on the type of snail breeding practices you intend to practice and the amount of available space at your disposal. It could vary from a little cupboard space at the back of your house to a room size pen to a full plot of land or more depending on your capacity.
When constructing a pen , you should avoid over population and give enough room for the snails to move around. Also make sure the spaces are well guarded to prevent them from attacks from rodents, ants and snakes and also to prevent the snails from escaping.
Make sure the pens are surrounded with plants that can serve as a cover crop because snails love cool and dark places.

7. Snail Foods and Feeding – Snails mostly feed on vegetables, plants and fruits. In modern farming, there are formulated feeds rich in calcium that has been specially prepared for snails which makes them grow faster.Some of these feed have been sold to many in our forum. Snails feeds on a variety natural feed crops like pawpaw leaves, cabbage and lettuce, okra leave, water leave, water melon, pawpaw, cucumber, banana and the list goes on.

8. Breeding the snail for market: Snails takes averagely between 6 to 12 months to get to marketable size when breeding with natural feed like fruits and vegetables.However with special formulated feed the growth is boosted.

9. Marketing of your snail in Nigeria: Currently the demand for snail outweighs the supply. So the market is wide and readily available as the snail farmers are not currently meeting demands. Your target markets are the market women in the markets, snail farmers, pepper soup joints, restaurants, hotels, supermarkets and snail lovers who cook them for special delicacies.

SIMPLE ANALYSIS FOR SNAIL FARMING IN NIGERIA

If you start a snail farm with 1,000 matured snails and they lay say 100 eggs each in a year. Remember that snails can go 3 clusters in a year.
Equals to 100 x 3 = 300 each (that is 300 snails each in a year) but for the purpose of this let’s put it at 150 snails per year.
Cost of 1,000 snails for breeding = 1,000 x 350 = 350,000 (Three Hundred and Fifty Thousand Naira)
For 150 snails for 1,000 foundation stock = 150,000 snails in a year.
If after 1 year you decide to sell 100,000 snails out of the 150,000 snails, you have a total of 100,000 x 100 Naira per snail (Highly reduced price) N10,000,000 (that is ten million naira) Is that amazing?
This is a rough projection which is obtainable in a good management practices.I think with this little summary snail breeding is profitable.

*HOW TO SET UP A MINI SACHET AND BOTTLED WATER COMPANY IN NIGERIA*

WHAT IS WATER?

Water as we all know that our life depends on it.

Water is the most widespread mineral substance on the earth surface. It covers nearly 70% of the earth crust and it is estimated that about 330million m^3 of it is available on earth.

Water forms the earth’s hydrosphere, appearing mostly in oceans and polar ice caps. It is also present in clouds, rain water, rivers, lakes, springs, freshwater aquifers, etc.

Water in these bodies perpetually moves through a constant cycle of evaporation, precipitation, condensation and run off to the sea in what is known as the WATER CYCLE.

ANALYSIS TO MAKE IN SETTING UP A BUSINESS

Before embarking on any business, be it large or small scale, some analysis must be put forward and these are known as SWOT analysis.

You might be wondering what SWOT analysis is, I will explain;
👉S – Strength of the area
👉W – Weakness of the area
👉O – Opportunities of the area
👉T – Threats of the area, you are setting up your business. If all these are well looked into then you are fine to go.

CONDITIONS USED IN SELECTING WATER SOURCE

1. Topography of the area
2. Population targeted
3. Velocity of the water
4. Dump sites and
5.Industrial areas.

Dump sites and industrial areas are the most paramount things to watch out for, because of the health hazards associated to these areas.

PROCESSING AND PACKAGING OF BOTTLED/SACHET WATER

I tell you some people are into poverty today because they are still unsure of which profitable business to do, even though they have enough capital unlike those who are certain of a business idea but do not have capital.

Whichever category you fall on, this business guide will benefit both categories.

Nigeria is indeed a blessed country which has a high open market demands for the production of goods and service which are highly required and consumed by her citizens. One of the prominent required commodities which it company products are highly consumed by Nigerians is “Bottled water/ Pure water production business” in Nigeria.

And this is because man as part of a living creature can’t do without water, so therefore needs water to survive.

With the high population of Nigeria’s citizen there is a massive high demand for this. So even though there are many bottled water/ pure water companies in Nigeria, your business can still be very profitable.

In some way, I don’t think a lot of people know that this business is a very good business opportunity that has the capability of feeding you and your family ‘healthy’, providing for their needs and also have some extra cash to save for future needs.

Why most people do usually ignore this business opportunity is because the purchasing cost of bottled water/pure water in Nigeria is low (#100 per bottle and #150 per bag representatively).

So they feel no need of setting up this business because they feel they won’t be making much money from it. But that is where they got it all wrong; you see most commodities which are sold in little/few prices tends to move faster than most commodity which has high prices.

Have you ever had about this theory which states “The lower the price, the higher the amount of purchase”?

This theory is not just a mere quoting theory, but a practical one for that matter.

Am not here to prove or argue on any economic theories or so, all am trying to do is to show you the high possibility of setting up a bottled water/pure water production business in Nigeria and making an income from it; that is, a feasibility study on bottled water/pure water production business in Nigeria.

For some of us who might have interest solely on how to start pure water business in Nigeria or how to start a bottled water business in Nigeria solely should worry less because this guide covers the two business setup because it’s interwoven.

Estimated cost for setting up a Bottled water/Pure water production company in Nigeria

One of the problems that one might encounter when one wants to set up bottled water/pure water Production business in Nigeria is the costs. The analyzed cost of running a bottled water/pure water business in Nigeria cannot be determined because it varies and can be influenced by set out plans; most people start up small while others people start up big.

In this guide, I will list out and explain the steps, facilities, and equipment from there, you can personal estimate your business startup cost.

How to get capital for starting your bottled water/pure water Production business in Nigeria

Like I stated earlier, some people who intend to start this business may have capital while others do not. If you happen to fall at the latter, here are few places where you can seek for loan or funds to set up your business.

The government; government have set up organizations which do assist individuals with funds to set up meaningful business provided you have a good business proposal.

After laying down your plans and developing your research, it is now time to find a good site layout or land for your bottled water/pure water business in Nigeria.

Depending on the capital, some people might want to buy a land then build a four or five bungalow with toilet in it. While others might choose to lent it.

Why go far, a standard room and parlour self contain is enough to start.

But whichever one you choose, you must need a bungalow, because you will need rooms for many activities like;
👉A big finished
product room for storage
👉Spacious production room directly in front of (1) above.
👉A raw material store
👉A mini laboratory room
👉Production Manager Office/quality control room
👉A waste material room which should be separately built.
👉A waiting room for visitors
👉Director’s office.
👉Clock room; where your workers can change their clothes.
👉And finally a toilet and bathroom (do not overlook this because it part of the requirements of NAFDAC for approval in bottled water/pure water production business in Nigeria).

As you can see, my listing is up to ten, which shows, its left for you to manage your resources according to your standard.

Also, the house should be well ventilated and also make provision of a stand-by electricity provision; it could PHCN, Solar or diesel generator. It all depends on your choice.

When choosing the land or site which is suitable for setting up your bottled water/pure water business in Nigeria; you should get an area which is not near a cemetery, waste dumps, sewage deposit, petrol, chemicals or anything that can contaminate your water source. In this business, aside seeking for NAFDAC approval, you need to be extremely neat, remember you are feeding a lot of people; and you don’t want to spread typhoid cholera or diarrhea as earlier said.

These are;

1. Industrial water filters and distiller

These are high custom designed equipment’s which can provide you high quality water treatments and equipment to handle high water volumes under extreme conditions.

Like I said earlier, this equipment is a must have and will provide your bottled water/pure water company a high clean water.

The one mistake most bottled water/pure water company owners make is trying to install this equipment’s by themselves.
If you are absolute sure of how to install them, then you are good to go but if you are new to it, then its highly advisable to seek the help of an expert in this.

There are companies whose work is to provide installation service of this and getting paid. Do not try to experiment with this equipment’s, because doing it wrong can attract, money wastage, contamination of your water, queries from NAFDAC officials.

And most especially, you are dealing with people’s life so you should handle this with care.

❤ *FISH FARMING BUSINESS IN NIGERIA*

💚 *HOW TO MAKE/EARN MONEY THROUGH FISH FARMING*

Good Evening Ladies and Gentlemen

Fish Business is a very lucrative business especially now that our government is turning to Agro business…

Fish Farming have 2 major subdivision

It could either be operated separately or as an integrated process…

The two subdivisions are Nursery and Grow out pond operation..

The Nursery Operation stand as the basics for the grow out operation..

The Nursery involve the inducement of the female fish to lay eggs which are later fertilize and hatched into fishes which are known as fries….

These are then nurtured for 3 to 4 weeks into fingerlings..

These sizes are suitable for use in the grow out operation.

Nurturing of these fingerlings to 3-4 weeks could grow into post fingerlings and juvenile…

For the purpose of this seminar we shall only discuss about the grow out stage…

The grow out stage popularly known as table size fish are suitable for sales and consumption….

The fingerlings and juvenile when matured for 4 or 5 months grow into table size or grow out stage…

Types of pond that can be use for grow out are:

Recirculatory system,concrete/plastic/wooden pond and earthen pond…

Materials needed are:

Land with good drainage system,water supply,which must be borehole, tank for water reserve,standby generator and record book….

The most common cat fish found in Nigeria are Clarias,gariepinus, and heterobranches…

FEED?

The most important factor for fish farming is the operating cost (feed)…

The types of feed been use at any particular time is the function of size of the fish been fed…

What you feed is what you get when it comes to feeding…

Another thing to be considered is the size and type of pond used..

Nigerians involved in catfish farming use conctete ponds or plastic tanks..both methods have their strength and weakness and it is wise for the would be catfish farmer to explore these perspectives before making a decision on which to adopt while using concrete pond seems to be more natural to cultivating catfish,plastic tanks can come handy where availability of space is a constraint…using ponds also gives the farmer the leverage of cultivating a relatively larger number of fishes as ponds design can be tailored from the outset to match intended fish density…

Cultivating tanks are however limited in sizes and fixed..thus limiting the cat fish farmer to stocking tanks with a restricted number of fishes for best result..

African catfish usually takes an average of 5months to reach table size…

At this stage they usually have attained an average weight of 1kg..the weight attained by catfish after 5months however varies depending on a number of factors that may include…

Quality of fingerlings used,quality of feeds,water management, quality of and absence of disease,stocking of density among others…

It is not uncommon to have fish weight up to 1.5kg after 5 month…

Aim of every fish farmer is to breed fish to 1kg body weight more in the shortest possible time,usually between 4 to 5 months if properly done…

Unit prices for table size fishes are between #650 and #700 per kg at the farm gate…

One gets more profit if one operates a market outlet to cut off shylock middlemen..

The cost unit price for table size are btwn #380 to #400..

Feeding catfish:

This constitute the bulk of the cost of rearing catfish,usually 60% and above in most places in Nigeria,
Available catfish feeds are imported and cost an average of #5500/1kg per bag, A 15kg bag can take 700 two month old fishes just 10 days to finish the 15kg bag…

While you are in a hurry to start reaping the profit from catfish cultivation,be prepared beforehand for the challenge of feeding the fishes…

Catfish can be fed once or twice in a day.
Excessive feeding of fingerlings increases the cost of rearing catfish and thus results in wastage as this may only result in marginal growth increase…

Feeds are also a primary source of pond water pollution and excessive feeding could constitute water management challenge..

Thus the catfish farmer needs to strike a balance between feeding and water management..

There are several subjective formular used to determine an appropriate feeding programme for fish..

One is to provide as much feeds that fishes can finish in 5-10 minutes.This can then be used as the quantity of Feed needed for "Satiation"

Using this formula, catfish can be fed for just once in a day…

With respect to feeding catfish an alternative for Nigerian farmers is the use of locally made feeds.. unlike the imported counterpart,local feeds cost an average of #4000/15kg bag without considerable growth implications..

A challenge however would be to access sources of such local feeds as most parts of Nigeria are filled with the expensive imported feeds…

I believe that with all these explanations made so far a business oriented personal would have gained useful lessons from this seminar…

In a nutshell I would advice my fellow brothers and sisters should embark on this fantastic money making venture for the betterment of our country……

Thanks for your indulgence….
