if you have 25mil; which of these business will you invest in. which one is more recurative. Please advise.

chibikee: if you have 25mil; which of these business will you invest in. which one is more recurative. Please advise.

First, you need to ask: Is 25 million naira capable of starting any of the 3 businesses you mentioned?

I can only answer to the best of knowledge, which is for Bottled Water Packaging business, but I recommend that you carry out a market survey for the remaining two.
You need a feasibility study to have a view of what expect when starting your business. The feasibility study will be your hands-on guide, just like a quantity surveyor is in civil/building construction.

Although a feasibility study is not a crystal ball, it helps you know the project cost, which includes all things from fixed assets (like Land, building, equipment/machines, fixtures/furniture, etc) working capital/operating expenses, manpower requirements/cost and raw materials requirement, source and cost. A feasibility study will also give you an overview of monthly financial projections for the first year and annual records for another 2 or 4 years. This helps especially in determining what production level you need to stay above break-even point and post a net profit. With knowledge of this you can also create marketing plan that will achieve the sales required to produce this result.

I have the water packaging feasibility study, which I personally created with accompanying spreadsheet for all the financial tables. You could have it if you so desire, but it costs you though. My advice is that you take the time to find a good feasibility study for the other two businesses.

That way, you can screen the three and see clearly which one looks more promising. I hope this helped. Good luck!

@henrimax, thanks for the commendation. I have sent you a mail with the details you requested.

Are you looking at other business? I may have some ideas to share with you.

OP,

A petrol station without a doubt is the way to go.

You do not need to go looking for customers; customers will locate you, and that for me is the best kind of business. I have the feasibility report already done.

N25m will not build you a station in the township however, due to the cost of land. It can build you a rural one.

There is only one filling station in my state, built in the 80s, and I can tell you that it makes money for the owners.

[color=#006600][/color]@Stagger i appreciate the fact that you have done your feasibliity study on Petrol stations. yes cusatomers do go to petrol stations but not all petol stations, although they are even located within cities,where they should enjoy better patronage. Most times you barely find 2 to 3 cars in such stations, not cos they r selling at higher pump prices but they just dont enjoy enough patronage. The only period they experience much activity are during unusual situations like scarcity. I keep wondering how long it takes for them to exhaust what products they have and make profits. These days petrol attendants are really less busy, some even sleep beside the pumps, LOL. So i ask you, is a Petrol station the way to go?
Moreso these days that we can at least boast of some level of stability of supply.
Maybe you might have a better explanation for that.
