We have decided to Open a thread for interested partners who are interested in investing in he Haulage biz to meet here so we can discuss openly and this avenue will make it easier for ideas and opinions to be vetted and scrutinized in the best interest of the biz.

The Vision
To be a renown support partner in offering logistic and haulage solutions to construction companies in the country. To have a fleet of Trucks and Machinery to deliver quality support in quality time.

How we hope to achieve our goal

We are inviting investors to come together, to pool our resources and expertise together and grow to an enviable height within the shortest possible time.

What We Need

For a start we are looking to acquiring a minimum of 3 trucks of 30 tons to take care of existing contracts on ground. I am convincingly sure that within the short time, we shall grow to a height everyone will want to reckon with.

We have about 4 interested people already and we decide to make our discussion here open for everyone to be able to join in and make contribution or constructive criticism.

Pls feel free to contribute here and let's work this out.

Breakdown of How It will Work.
There will be 2 options.

(1) PARTNERS
(2) INVESTORS

PARTNERS
The profit is shared in % of how much was invested.

If Investor A invests #1,000,000, investor B invests #500,000 and investor C invests #100,000. Total = #1,600,000. So #1,600,000 divided by 100 = #16,000

This means that Investor A's investment is 62.5% of the total investment, Investor B's investment is 31.25% of the total investment while investor C's investment is 6.25%.

20% of the profit is set aside for maintenance, Tax and other expenditure.

For Example,

If the profit for the month is #1,000,000.
#200,000 is set aside for Maintenance, Tax etc making #800,000 available to shared amongst Partners.

So
Investor A will get #500,000.
Investor B will get #250,000
Investor C will get #50,000

INVESTOR

The Investor is given an agreed fixed % of invested funds as ROI (Return on Investment) monthly. This investor is also free to withdraw the principal fund invested over an agreed period of time.

Example

If the agreed ROI is 5% monthly of invested funds, and the principal refunded after 10 months.

If #500,00 was invested, then the investor gets #25,000 monthly and #525,000 at the end of the 10th month.

This is just my own Opinion. Feel free to contribute.

OPTION 1
The profit is shared in % of how much was invested.
Example;

If investor A invests 1,000,000, investor B invests 500,000 and investor C invests 100,000. Total = 1,600,000. So 1,600,000 divided by 100 = 16,000

This means that Investor A's investment is 62.5% of the total investment, Investor B's investment is 31.25% of the total investment while investor C's investment is 6.25%.

10% of the profit is set aside for maintenance and other expenditure.
If the profit for the month is 1,000,000.
100,000 is set aside making 900,000 available to shared.

So
Investor A will get 562,000.
Investor B will get 281,250
Investor C will get 56,250

OPTION 2

The investor is given an agreed fixed % of invested funds as ROI (Return on Investment) monthly. This investor is also free to withdraw the principal fund invested over an agreed period of time.

Example if the agreed amount is 10 % of invested funds, and the principal refunded after 10 months.

If 500,00 was invested, then the investor gets 50,000 monthly and 550,000 at the end of 10 months.

This is just my own Opinion. Feel free to contribute.

Good! Are you thinking of an offline meeting as well cos its very neccesary.
2. Who are the managers? What are they promissing? Can they meet up with their promise? If they can, how? We need to know!
Also, informations like the cost of truck, min/max amount that can be maid per time with it, etc will give a better understanding and allow the house to know wether or not the plans is realisable!

Ok. I believe there should be 2 experienced managers. I will be one of the managers, by this it doesn't mean I have access to funds at my beck and call cos there must be at least 2 other signatory for funds to be released. We will also have an office rep.

As a manager, I will be responsible for the coordination of the trucks and human resources and will also be saddled with the responsibility of getting the most profitable jobs for our trucks (which by God's grace is always available), estimate repairs and maintenance of the trucks etc.

For the cost of the trucks, A good truck should go for about 3.5m - 4m for Mack 25 - 30 ton trucks.

For the jobs. There are different offers on ground now but let me use what can be earned on the least.
the max that be made can be put at say 45k - 50k

The least that can be earned by a sound truck daily is 25,000. So for a week we should have 150,000, for a month it will be 600,000.

Did I answer your question?

am Alex from Rivers am interested in what offering. plz hit me up wit uniqueboyy2k@yahoo.com or 08083726882 so we can talk more.

Gud idea, what is the minimum investment that u expect from an investor?

@Alex, @oloyedayo

There is no minimum amount to be invested. That is why I explained that the profit is to be shared in percentage. Or if you choose the second option of having a fixed % of return on investment.
Its a win win situation.

Welcome on board.

What will happen if the truck damage for high repair bills?

@godelo. If you read the first post, I mentioned that 10% of the earnings are set aside for maintenance and other unforeseen occurrences. So whether the trucks break down or not, the money must be set aside.

Did I answer your question?

Yes you did to an extent!
But Understand something, option 1 is a sort of partnership business (company) and option 2 Is a kind of mutual investment with a fixed ROI. My adviced is a combination of both options. Most investors will like to go with option 2 cos if or not there is profit, they will still get their ROI and also becouse it provides room for exit! But might not be encourage to invest if there is none already existing asset and that is where option 1 comes into play!
So you have to look for those investors that believe most in your dream/plan, have a chat with them online and offline. Apart from management and mentainance of the trucks, this ones will be helpful in areas you might not be too conversant with or other aspect that will be too much for you alone to handle ie:legals, financials administrations etc.

Both Options are available. The choice is up to the investor.

I hav interest hook me up on 08068614773. BB 281B9C79

I am interested. I also work in a logistics company. I am ready to make valuable impact. Reach me †*************

This is indeed a great idea...kudos to whoever brought up the idea because I had been clamouring for this...I even suggested a nairaland investor group, which I suggested to Seun but a member discouraged it...kudos to the initiators once again...

Now, as someone with much experience in haulage/transport/logistics business in Nigeria, I think I can be of help to you guys in certain areas.

First, if you guys want to be hauling for Total Oil here in Lagos, I can help you guys to get through. And remember, if you guys want to be hauling for total oil, you need a sound tractor or truck head as laymen call it. And a tanker back...

You must be ready to abide strictly by total speed limit, else, your truck will be banned and u won't be lifting for them again cos they are very conscious of safety and life.

Remember, most Nigerian truck drivers love overspeeding, so you guys would need a special device which I can provide for you through my nigeria/uk partner company...and you will also need tracking installed on your trucks and networked with total database for monitoring. If your drivers tamper the tracking, they won't be allowed to load any day they did...

My company also deal on tyre...and if you guys wants to start Lagos cosmopolitan transport service known as BRT and u can secure the license, I can also help u to get TATA coach, the type used by BRT on lease agreement or what we know as hire purchase agreement.

Hit me up if you have interest in any of the things I said above.

Once again, kudos to you guys, I love this so very much. Wish you guys the best of success and breakthrough.

Lyk the idea, pls email details(biz plan) to nkemomede@yahoo.com.

The process is quite simple and has been sumarised at the beginning of the thread. You can choose any of the options.

Guys, I'm thinking we should meet over this. when and where do you guys think we should meet. Most of us are in Lagos right? We need to do a lot of meeting to get things right you know.

In the meantime your contributions will be greatly appreciated here.

I av 2truck, 10tyres (20tons) at my disposal, but i can get more.

This will depend on if work is not going to halt, and the amount to be returned daily.
Thanks

I can only guarantee you hauling of diesel, petrol and kero...if you are still interested, then let me know. For your other question abt hire purchase of trucks, my answer is no. Only TATA coach is available for hire purchase...no truck for now, maybe in future if all things goes well as projected, thanks.
