How To Set Up A Mini Kerosene Depot And Make Money by dguvnur(m): 2:27pm On Oct 17, 2012
This article will show you how to set up a mini kerosene depot business and start raking in big cash on a regular basis.

Dual purpose kerosene (DPK) probably has the highest market demand per liter profit of the three commonly used petroleum products; PMS, AGO and DPK. It is used in cooking and in other household domestic purposes.

Kerosene storage and sales business is one of the easiest and cheapest oil and gas business you can invest in. Kerosene business is a very lucrative business but it is as well volatile. You have to constantly watch the market. Profit can be from N30 to N40 per liter, sometimes you get it from the depot at N130, but on retail it would be about N150 to N250.In a normal situation where there is no scarcity, you can make between N10 to N35 per liter on kerosene. Kerosene business is therefore highly lucrative if done properly.

Starting a Mini-Kerosene Sales business

If you are starting with below 10, 000 liters of kerosene, the law excludes you from obligation to obtain a license to venture into the kerosene storage and sales business because it is regarded as a small scale business. Basically to start a kerosene business, some people decide to build storage tanks but it isnt necessary. Depending on the size of the tank, it could be between N150, 000 to N200, 000 liters. But to reduce your capital, you could get drums of 200 liters. They cost about N3, 000 to N3, 500 depending on where you are buying them from. Starting with 1, 000 liters, you need just five drums. In this case you only need to get buckets and measuring cans.

Also, you need to know someone or a petrol station that has constant supply of kerosene. A trader in oil and gas that can supply you regularly and you are in business. You can store up to 10, 000 liters in your residential house.

Kerosene: N140 per liter x 1, 000 = N140, 000

Transportation: N5 per liter x 1, 000 liters = N5, 000

Drums: N3, 500 x 5 = N17, 500

Funnels, Jerry-cans, hoses etc = N5, 000.

So, roughly with N200, 000, you can start kerosene business on a small scale.

Profitability

You would have observed that the selling price of kerosene varies from time to time and place to place. The forces of demand and supply determine the price of kerosene and the profit potential. The profit potential is usually estimated per liter. Today, kerosene profits range from N10 to N35 per liter or even more depending on availability. You can make between N10 to N35 per liter. If you get it at N140 per liter for example, you simply add an extra charge of N5 per litter to get it to your location. Let’s assume you bought 1, 000 at N140 per liter (price is subject to change reflecting the oil prices at the current time); N140 x 1, 000 liters = N140, 000 plus N5 per liter transport cost on 1, 000 liters which is N5, 000 making a total of N145, 000.You can add N20 on each liter, though depending on the area you are situated. In all, you would have made a profit of N20, 000. Depending on your location, you can sell 1, 000 liters in a day.

NAIJAFUND..THE FIRST NIGERIAN CROWDFUNDING PLATFORM DEBUTS

For some of us, we know but for many other people, do not know what crowd funding is all about. It is a concept where a project/idea is funded by a number of people who believes in such an idea whether for profit or not.
This is a new concept being embraced in the world right now to fund businesses. It is a concept which will really help many people in Nigeria. Talents abound, ideas abound but the complaints most times is that there are no funds to finance such ideas. In a country where the percentage of youths that are unemployed is skyrocketing every year, it is imperative for such platforms to exist where coordinated attempt as to raising money is available.
Unlike other developed Nations where the level of trust is high with the users, we have a level of trust too in this Nigerian crowdfunding but protection of investors or funders are of utmost importance which is one of the most important factors taken into consideration. As an investor, you are to an extent very safe in commiting your funds for a venture either profit or non-profit.
The site is administered by seasoned business consultants and business developers as well as Non-Governmental personnels who can screen NGO projects submitted at the site while the former screens the profit making ventures/projects/ideas submitted to the platform. I am also a member of the admin and my large following on my thread speaks volume coupled with my experience as a business developer and an author of a sought after business ebook through nairaland, linkedin and so on.

I therefore welcome you to www.naijafund.com. Sign up today, start posting your projects, start funding businesses and start making your dreams and other people's dreams to come true.

Who knows you might be funding the next Bill Gates or funding the next facebook.

You are free to ask questions please....Have a nice day!
