Hello Omicpet,
Really glad to hear of ur nafdac hurdles been sorted out.
Please we are just starting the processing, can you give me the contact of the consultant you used and his fees.
Also, how did you go abt d plant layout, will appreciate it if you can send a draft
Tanks

omicpet:
Actually it took quite longer than the 5 months.


Processing started late November 2015.
My consultant did things rather at a slower pace than bubu BUHARI . That's just the kinda person he his but am glad I had him as a consultant. He his worth is onions. So the discuss first I didn't get the trademark approved not till mid February . A company trademark is compulsory for the commencement of your processing.
PS don't let any body fool u into believing otherwise . The NaFdac team came to inspect the factory on the 13th of April that's a month after we got our trademark issue sorted . and water samples for both sachet and PET were collected that day .

It takes a minimum of 2weeks at best for any result to be forwarded from the NaFdac lab to the NaFdac departmental office .

And den came the strike .

NaFdac officers also had partook in their own strike after the nationwide strike . All in all and after all d bureaucracy and all I finally got ma digits on the 8th of August . Although the letter of notification I received was dated
On the 14th of July

@abikun please I need ur assistance. kindly contact me on whatsapp. 08068716430. Thank you.

Bottled water is more profitable based on this calculation
CALCULATION ON SACHET WATER
1. 1kg of nylon N1200
2. 1kg produces 26-28 bags (take 26 for reference)
3. 77 kg produces 2000 bags
4. Cost of 77kg 93,400
5. Cost of packing bag N4.50 x 2000 N9000
6. A machine produces 110bags per hour x2
7. 2 Machines produces average of 2200 bags in 10hours
8. Cost of Labour to produce 2200 per 10hours 155,000 per month
26 = N6000 per day
9. Total cost of production material and labour, per day
= 77kg of printed nylon N92,400
2000 packing nylon N9000
Labour N6000

TOTAL COST OF PRODUCTION N107,400

A bag of water N120
2000 bags 120 x 2000 N240,000
Profit = 240,000 -107,400 N132,600

Unforeseen Expenses 10% of Total Profit N13, 260
i.e Electricity, Fueling & Transportation e.t.c
Net Profit = 119, 340

 

BOTTLE LINE
Full Auto 2000 cartons per day.
i. A preform cost N12.50
ii. 12 Preform N150 / carton
iii. A cap N2 cost N24 / carton
iv. Label N2 cost N24 / carton
v. Shrink nylon 1100/kg :- 20 N55 / carton
N 265.5/Carton
vi. Labour / day on Full Auto N3000


A machine produces:-
Full Auto 2000 cartons in 10hours


COST OF PRODUCTION AND LABOUR FOR FULL AUTO
Full Auto 265.5 X 2000 = N531000 + 3000= 534,000


PROFIT ON SALES
A carton is sold for N450
Full Auto N450 x 2000 cartons N900, 000 - 534,000 = 366,000

INVESTMENT AND MONEY MAKING OPPORTUNITIES IN CASSAVA
Cassava is important food (consumer) and industrial crop, It also serve as source of income to the farmers, the brokers, companies as well as nations or countries. Nigeria is currently the largest producer of cassava in the world with an annual production of over 54 million metric tons (54,000,000MT).
Cassava is largely consumed in many processed forms in Nigeria. It is used in the industry and livestock feed, particularly as import substitution becomes prominent in the industrial sector of the economy. Unlike other crops, cassava has diverse industrial uses like starch, cassava chips, ethanol etc. hence its demand is HIGH. The root can be made into various products which include flour, chips, ethanol, glucose syrup and bread to name a few. Such products are in high demand within Nigeria and have a potential within the export arena.
With the current economic crisis, the price of the common food like beans, rice, etc are on the increase, so anyone venturing into cassava farming is sure of smiling to the bank, Cassava farming poses little threat when it comes to risks factors like drought and disease as we have varieties that are resistant to both. Unlike other crops that are tedious and hectic to maintain. So any investor investing in cassava is sure of his/her investment with interest
As a food crop, cassava has some inherent characteristics which make it attractive, especially to the small scale farmers in Nigeria. First, it is rich in carbohydrates especially starch.
Secondly, it is available all year round, making it preferable to other, more seasonal crops such as grains, peas and beans and other crops for food security. Compared to grains, cassava is more tolerant to low soil fertility and more resistant to drought, pests and diseases. Furthermore, its roots are storable in the ground for months after they mature.
Industrial demand for cassava, there is a potential market for cassava products in animal feed, flour and starch industries, the main challenge of these industries is inadequate supply of cassava products, a weak link between industrial processors and producers of cassava products and therefore a preference for imported starch becomes an alternative.
Government has seen that cassava can be used to produce different things like flour and sugar. For example, we are great consumers in Nigeria, we consume bread, garri, fufu etc so the government is pushing for cassava bread.
The confectionaries import glucose which we can get from cassava. Other confectionaries can make use of cassava starch to make their products. Even in pharmaceutical it’s useful. It can be used to make ethanol. There are new projects aimed at increasing and improving the production of cassava and developing new ways to use the crop. Our government hopes to use agriculture as well mineral resources as a way to diversify the economy away from Brent crude.
The government exports cassava chips also, this conversation started in the Olusegun Obasanjo regime. A significant produce of cassava is consumed in Nigeria. Cassava is perishable, from production you have 48 hours to dry it up completely if not it becomes completely useless and losses its value. From the farmers’ perspective, they will rather not harvest if they don’t have a buyer,” he added.
This also makes farmers get processors that are closest to them so that the processor can dry the cassava a bit and they can continue with what they want to use it for so they don’t lose their produce and at the same time money invested in transporting.”
Nigeria wants to focus on making use of cassava also as flour. This process requires availability of good processing plants which is not yet readily available. Steps are being taken to make these plants available for this process.
To convert cassava to flour, not a lot of processing plants do that in Nigeria so government is trying to encourage people to set up plants to convert them to flour and also to starch. Some years back Nigeria had a few starch processing plants and I think almost all of them folded up for one reason or the other. It was either due to a lack of produce because of the distance the product had to be transported to get there and in the process a lot of produce is destroyed before it gets to them.”The challenge of industrialization within the cassava industry lies with the reducing costs of production and transformation. This will allow for the supply of cheaper processed products to desired quality and standards to markets.
Government is working hard to making breweries and confectionaries to start introducing cassava products into their processes. The government is also working on getting better cassava seedlings.
The seedling we have in Nigeria produce about 12-15 tons per hectare. Whereas smaller countries like Thailand are obtaining over 40-50 tons per hectare. With high yield cassava stem being distributed to the farmers all across the Country Nigerians farmers are now producing 30 tons per hectare. You can get this high yield cassava stem at IITA Ibadan. The government also introduce new fertilizers to boast cassava farming and production in Nigeria.
Dear reader, why not Seize opportunities in cassava farming and business, let me sight an example When telecommunication companies came to Nigeria, I mean MTN, ECONET, some smart Nigerians took advantage and went into partnership with them way back then, today these people are still growing strong and enjoying the industry simply because they took advantage of the opportunities.
There are divers business opportunities in cassava farming, production and processing. In life opportunities come in circles, when one miss them he or she has to wait until the circle is completed, that is why some opportunities come after some years. Not that they won't come but will certainly take a while for anyone to see such an opportunity again, opportunities acted upon at the right time equal to SUCCESS, we always say all we need is TIME, yes we are right, all we NEED is TIME so also all we HAVE is TIME, the universal currency is TIME, God has even everyone 24hrs/day, the same hours give to a person in America are the same hours given to you in Nigeria. Also the big difference between the RICH and the POOR is TIME. The rich act on opportunities at the right TIME but the poor act on opportunities at the wrong TIME and still expect result.
Dear reader one idea acted upon is better than 20billion ideas not acted upon, Act on the opportunities available to you, there are so many income opportunities in agriculture that one can tap into and he or she will be making consistent if not weekly income. Remember, WHAT YOU DONT START DOES NOT GROW, see u @ d TOP

Hello

I have read through the all the post with keen interest, kindly furnish me with the necessary manual or ebook, with necessary contact

will so much appreciate. gosayuki@gmail.com

Hi all, apologies , I've been quite very busy.. No be beans .. Small loan and bank dey ask for granny birth certificate and all just UNTOP say I wan do RO. Any ways the Lord has been good . Am gonna upload pictures later . For those who are considering reverse osmosis the assembled one as an option . Please go with NOVA pump. Get the CVF5-16.( that's a 3hp single face . Cost price as at today was 183000. ). U can choose to get lesser horse power model and probably a 3 phase model but naija light and connection headaches( u should get ma point)
A stainless casing(I.e membrane cup) for the membrane cost 26000 as at today and the membrane goes for 48000 each( that's considering the number f membranes u wanna use ). Pls note all these prices stated here are today's prices for each item tomorrow fit dey different o .( am sure some RO technicians go wan kill me here make una no vex ..

@ hadukey here is mr salako's number 08094441605. Sorry it took so long haven't been online .. I highly recommend him

@ jamiu0 I hope my lil Expose has helped.

Will upload images later.

@omicpet,

I can't wait to see the pictures. I also want to assemble my reverse Osmosis.

Hello guys! I jammed into this thread 5 days ago and I was able to read all the post from 2010 till date, I was amazed to see ow the thread as been kept alive ! Kudos to everyone in the house.

However I intend going to pure water production next year January and I av been doing my survey, I intend using a 2 bedroom flat to start with, and av gone to some existing water factory for more survey on the business and I av come to realize the business needs more critical thinking for it to survive expecially when considering the current economy ressecion.

Nevertheless, if i must be frank I av learn enough from this post and I still wish to learn and contribute my own quota to the development of the post. I also look towards seeing pictures of various factories own by members of this post in other to enhance newcomers going into d business a deep insight on ow to arrange or set up a factory .. thanks and God bless. #peacenation.

N/B I also don't mind aving a copy of the E-book to broading my scope of knowledge abt the business. My contact info are ^ email (adegokeolatunde@yahoo.com ) phone no 07038448164.

Stay bless.

Why us this forum too quiet! Pls guys pour some heat !

Will upload individual items before assmbling later on. Ba power supply , slow network ..

Been too busy to push updates , will do a comprehensive write up , images included a this Sunday ...

@Omicpet,

What is the quality of the water produced by this your reverse osmosis compare to the imported reverse osmosis?

Dear all,

What is the best method/chemical/equipment for treating raw water with the following features:

Iron. - 1.28mg/l
Chloride. - 60mg/l
Hardness- 112mg/l

Waiting for reply.

Hardness- 112mg/l

Waiting for reply.

For Choice of Method for water treatment .consider these options :

1. Time
2. Quantity of water to be treated
3. Cost
4. And lastly Control.

Time and quantity of water to be treated are in relation to the o the other . Am sure u know all about cost and den what I meant by control is the ability for the chosen treatment process to be manage into getting same results with minimal efforts. @ jamiuO am sorry am not much for writing but am sure if we could have a talk and if you're in Lagos I would be very glad to have you around my factory and explain things to you and give some key points too about the business . Am also a learner though but having a degree in food science and having workd at a bottling company am sure I could patiently answer all your questions on water treatment and give one or more hints on how to o go about your factory ., and yes the reverse osmosis works well. It follows same principles as the importance d one . The membranes are the major point of an RO system . Cheers .
