Would the moluee co-operative, likely tolerate a competition in their midst? I doubt so  Except you want to invest into moluees or express? |
|

perhaps buying one of those{express}and leasing to operators, intra state or interstate

Well yes you can develop a beautiful model with that. An orgranised express renting company . Atleast you would create lots of jobs opportunities. You can have your own arranged mechanics etc. Surely this could be profitable . |

thats the main thing about Nigeria, alot of people have the ideas talent to do this, but with the whole organization and its policy its hard to fulfil this dream. The transport is a very good idea but to tap into the market is not easy.

There's nothing special about this business. Buy a luxury bus and take it to the garage. Operate it with a greater amount of respect for passengers and charge more. This will bring naira into your pocket.  |

@ Seun And the moluee gang would be happy with him? Getting your car vandalised or your drivers attacked, wont be funny brother That is Lagos for show  |

Why won't they be happy if you settle them very well? Giving of 'gifts' to stakeholders is allowed!

Give people security on your buses, and do not overcrowd, that should make you unique and make your pockets grow.

Tell whoever is in charge of the business not to carry overload _ policy and try carrying passengers only no SACKS OF GARRI, DRUMS OF PALM OIL, u can focus on specific routes like students, office workers, this will reduce your maintance cost and will be safer in the long run make sure it has seat belts for everyone nice padded chairs uniform for the drivers n conductors have a logo if you have more than 1 bus |

Long distance travel is good. I saw astudy some years ago about using a luxury bus costing N23m to transport people from east to west of Nigeria. Average daily return is about N100k ie without considering operational cost.
Pay back is less 2 years. That is why ABC is doing very well.
Actually I hope to start a haulage/courier biz later. It is even more profiatble. I will do the goods delivery much better than ABC with the use of modern ICT .

@ Seun How viable is this transportation business. Would our model in the US work ie scheduled departure time, clean buses, assigned sitting etc.
BTW I am a fellow ogun state man looking to move back home after a looooooooooong time away and looking for all kinds of business ideas. Also do u know of any really nice night clubs in Abeokuta.

Buy a couple of danfo, put it on the road. My favourite spot/state for transportation business is Lagos. Then comes the challenge:- You need LOYAL & FAITHFUL drivers, You need to settle the area boyz/omo-oniles, if you really prosper you would definately get other registered agencies extorting money from you. |
