1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Table Egg production via the process of raising poultry layer birds from Point Of Lay (POL)  for the purpose of producing table eggs and birds using battery cage. 2,400 POL birds, feeding and medication of the birds and sales of eggs and spent layers produced from them in the first one and half year after construction, increasing the number thereafter 5,000 Birds in the second year utilising Day Old Chicks, 10,000 capacity in the third, and 20,000 in the fifth.
In the first year, at peak production, the farm should produce about 60 crates (30 eggs/crates) per day and generate N1.1million in revenue and about grossly N0.4million as gross profit after deduction of cost of feed on monthly basis. Spent layers would be sold at the end of one year of lay and utilised in the purchase of replacement birds. Annual revenue could be up to 16 million naira and profit grossly could be up to 4.5 million in the first year. At full capacity, the project, housing 20,000 laying birds would generate upto 70 million naira in revenue and about N17.0 million on net profit every year.

1.1 Business Overview
Egg production is the most popular form of of poultry farming because egg consumption cut across wide divide. Poultry production come in different forms ranging from parent stock breeder meat (broiler/production), egg production, Quail production, turkey production, ostrich farming, duck farming, Geese farming and ornamental bird rearing among other.  The business could also come in specialisation such as brooding, Point of Lay production, liquid egg package, egg trading, cold room marketing, day old chicks, feed milling, birds transportation or egg deport business.  Because of the vastness of this industry, entrepreneurs focus will be on an aspect and with time add other aspect either for vertical or horizontal integration in Nigeria, this industry is still grossly untapped and any part of the industrial possess great potential.  Specialisation and continuous improvement on skills is always paramount.
Poultry industry is a multi billion naira industry:  The major hindrances to the growth of the industry in Nigeria ranges from absence of credit, high interest rate, high cost of maize, unavailable electricity which is important for cold rooms, incubators and operation of automated cages.  Because of the fallow nature of the industry in Nigeria, the prospect is high.  Right now the demand for egg, broiler meat, day old chicks, day old poult etc remain overwhelmingly high.

1.2 Description of Business
Mr Poultry's plan to participate in chicken egg production.  The business entails keeping of chicken from (Day old to)  fourteen weeks when the growers will be transfer to cages.  The caged birds at the  age of 19 - 22 weeks start to lay eggs.  The eggs are packed in crates  of 30 packs, transported to the city where they are distributed to  customers.  The laying birds by the age of 60 to 75 weeks of laying, are sold out as  spent layers for meat.

1.3 Vision and Mission

-  To produce nutritious eggs,  generate employment, and create wealth for investor.

Mission: 
-Build a mechanised poultry that is efficient. And rewarding .
1.4 Value Proposition

Poultry Production for wealth creation.
1.5 Critical Success factors of the business

A. Finance:  Fund must be available as when needed according to  plan to avoid creating stress factors which would cost so much in revenue loss

B. Expertise:  The poultry industry is knowledge based home employment of expertise is imperative.  Consultancy is paramount.  Training and retraining of staff is sacrosanct no mather how small the level and acquisition of knowledge of modern trend is a factor to growth.

C. Housing: Proper ventilation and spacing is a critical success  factor.  Position your house to give the birds maximum ventilation  and reduce heat.
D. Biosecurity:  Disease entrance and spread are as a result of any  form of breach in biosecurity.  Foot bath, car bath, prohibition of  un authorized persons etc.
E. Water:  Watering and water source is of great importance.  Foul  water source or water getting contaminated in poultry house  signifies that the farm will fail.  Water should be managed to  ensure that clear and clean water is available for bird ad libitum.
F. Nutrient: Most farm fail because they wanted to reduce cost of  feed  by compounding farms should only venture into self  compounding on  ground with available experiment.  All nutrients  must be readily  available in the market to prevent malnutrition.
G. Sales:  Egg produced must be sold.  Proper marketing with  vigorous advertisement will ensure the product is made available  to the target market.
H. Management:  Pilfering shrinkages, indulgence, misappropriation  are few of the several epidemic that constantly plaque poultry in Nigeria.  Workers steal eggs, birds, feed, money and even drugs if  they are not properly monitored.  Sales agents and drivers could  sell at different prices and report differently. Effective  management of this ends are critical factor.
I. Administration: . At full capacity,Management is separated from administration,  when the owner is not directly involved in day to day management.  Absentee farming is hazardous.  Someone with stake in the  venture should give quality time to it to survive.
