Hello Nairalanders, i have an uncle who works abroad and he is thinking of setting up a filling station in Nigeria, but he is not sure of how much it will cost him.

Bang DE DE deng!!!

I'd like to know too.

I'd advice him to wait till 2019 because I doubt if any business investment will flourish before then. My 2 cents

He wants yo start a business and he seems completely naive about it....


Well, he needs to come down and mingle with the oil tycoons.... Any answer that you'll get ere will be nothing but a spec!

He needs guidelines and not just the premium!

Let him consult an existing filling station owner of the cost of operation as it's more than the structure.

From my gathering, outside purchase of land - it could cost him (estimate) I5 - 500m naira. The given cost depends on the following
I. Number of pumps
ii. The type of building or structure he may desire
iii. Other business to be considered right inside the station e.g. gas , car wash etc


The list is endless

If you don't have the heart of an agbero you better forget it. Is not about building a filling station with pumps, radio and decorating to attract; is about getting the product without being naive of the excessive meagre charges of those mad men at the depot.

A friend who had a station never knew his neighbor who does the same business within same location with him always pay those boys at the depot to make you he never or loads after he's done selling four trucks.

He sells every four tankers before my friend can be loaded. Use your brain. This country is too rough for business.
