What is this sesame self?

Sesame seed is also called benniseed, or "ridi" in Hausa. It is an oily seed with many food and industrial uses. A collaboration between MARKETS (an agribusiness oriented NGO) and OLAM Nigeria Ltd (a multi-billion dollar commodity buying company) has ensured that sesame farmers in Nasarawa state get a guaranteed market for their product by supplying same to OLAM. I personally want to go into it next year as the return on investment approaches 65% with good agric practices.

I just dey gather some kind money to hit this business on a commercial scale.

dav8id: Before the Nairaland data loss i have wrote a small post regarding this business EGUSI STORAGE BUSINESS.

Its nothing but its just a kind of business were you buy egusi at cheap price during the harvest time (now ) at farm gate price directly from farmers through local purchase agent , then store the egusi for 2 to 3 months or more months for reselling at 100 to 300% profit.
The longer your store the higher the profit. Last year we invest in this business by buying size 29 bag of egusi at 12k and then resell at 28k by november same year while some sell same size of bag at 48k around march this year.

Current price of size 29 bag of egusi is now is 13k .Note agro produce price are not stable and egusi price might likely increase or decrease as the case maybe.

Why egusi storage business?
You dont need marketing. Yes buyers are always around to buy from you whenever you want to sell it.the demand is morethan the supply.
You buy at the egusi market, you store it at same market, buyer come to same market from different state and buy from you in same market.

You buy directly from local purchase agent whom charge you commission per bag. You will be incharge of your money.you will be there when the agent is making the purchase for you but its more profitable if you can release money to the agent to go into the remote area and make the purchase for at a very killer price .thats is my style.

You make the purchase, you store the egusi in the store and pay for the store fee, you walk away, when the price increase the agent wil alert you and you give order for the resel simple.

Location Lafia in Nasarawa state.

I will be updating this thread with the latest news of the market.

All question should be drop here.

Others commodities like maize.soya beans are yet to be in the market.

Life entirely is risk. You dont need marketing to resell it. Thats why i said you need someone in the market to monitor the price movement for you.
You already store it in the public store in the market or you rent a room and store. When the price raise, your price monitor or agent whatever will alert you and you do what you think is the best to resell your storage.
Every month go done the price increase .eg we are in august now and the price is cheaper now.once we enter september the price increase. Note you have to becareful when buying cuz you might endup buying undry egusi whice its not good for storage but if you can have a means of drying it then buying undry egusi is the more profitable but you will redry it for just two days after buying.
The local agents have a means of detecting dry and undry egusi.

Customers from different state visit the market in large numbers for purchase. You can resell your product whenever you want but the longer you store the higher the profit percentage.
A visit to lafia will give you more insight.

Re: Long Awaited Egusi {Melon} Storage Business Season Is On Now by dav8id(m): 11:08am On Aug 11, 2014
@Op pls stick to the cash and carry style for now until you finally win the agent trust before you may think of buying from remote areas.
As for now no local agent wil even accept the idea of traveling to the remote area,cuz the road network is not even good as most of the bridges are covered by water .geting access wil be very difficult.

Make all your purchase in the market..

I want to salute all the silent follower thats also make a move and invest while some are still planning to..

August is the best time..

Current price is 18k....

Recommended market is Tuesday market called Ashangba market
And thursday market called KASUWA ALAMIS is located in heart of lafia and the name of the area is called Tudun gwandara grin .
