2) I HAVE A FULL TIME JOB SO HOW DO I MANAGE MY BUSINESS?

There are companies that help with managing your cooking gas business. After reaching an agreement, they help you run your day to day activities but it is advisable to have a relative or trust worthy friend assisting especially with the accounts. Managing a cooking gas business is really not that stressful but could be dangerous in the hands of an untrained individual or group of individuals. When placed in the wrong hands, there could be a fire outbreak, loss of lives, loss of property, etc. The main advantage of partnering with a management team is experience. A good management team will ensure smooth running of the business. There are organizations that will not only help you manage or run your business but also help you drive sales BUT be careful not to entrust your business in the wrong hands.

One essential factor is the "Location" of the business

The Location of your cooking gas business is one of the deciding factors of making profit or loss so it always advisable to put into great consideration the location of your business. It is wise to consider highly populated residential areas, this is because many consumers would prefer buying gas in their locality therefore locate your business in a place not too far from residential areas but do not forget that your product is highly flammable, hence do not build your gas plant close to a residential building. Remember your location can earn you 50,000 naira a month or 500,000 naira a month.

Another ideal location will be an area with high traffic such as a busy road, street or street junction close to a market place, restaurants and hotels. Sometimes setting up your gas plants where competitive companies are located is good. You may also catch the overflow from an existing business. Remember your location is very important when starting your cooking gas business. It determines to a great extent the number of sales per day. It is nearly impossible to have your gas plant in Ikorodu and expect customers from Ikeja or Surulere.

Another thing to know is "where do you buy cooking gas from?". If you plan to go into the cooking gas business, it is important to know where to get cooking gas from but before bothering about where you need to understand the supply chain of cooking gas and know what section of the supply chain you belong to then you can proceed with who or where to buy from.

The supply chain of cooking gas is simply the process which cooking gas goes through before getting to the end users.

From the PRODUCERS to the WHOLESALERS to the DISTRIBUTORS to the RETAILERS and then the CONSUMERS.

NNLG is the major producer of cooking gas in Nigeria because it produces over 80% of annual cooking gas consumption in Nigeria. NAVGAS and NIPCO are the major wholesalers of cooking gas in Nigeria, both located somewhere around Apapa, Lagos State. Distributors are the companies in between the wholesalers and the retailers, they do not sell in wholesale prices but they do not deliver directly to the consumers, they sell to retailers instead, the retailers are the people or companies that sell cooking gas directly to the consumers, they sometimes do home refill for the consumers and the consumers or end users or customers are the people willing to buy cooking gas.

So for a retailer, you are more concerned with buying from the best distributor and selling to as many consumers as possible.

There are two ways to refill a customer's gas cylinder, the PNEUMATIC and the AUTOMATIC dispensing system.

For the pneumatic dispensing system, the cylinder is place on a digital scale and the scale is adjusted to its zero limit so as to get the exact amount of gas already in the cylinder and the exact amount of gas needed to refill. Then the nozzle of the filling system is fitted to the valve of the cylinder and the system is stopped as soon as the pre-determined amount of gas is reached.

For the automatic dispensing system, the exact amount or quantity of kg or litres is pressed on the dispenser while the refilling nozzle is already inserted in the cylinder. In this way, the system automatically stops dispensing once the pre-determined amount of gas is reached.

How well do people use cooking gas in Nigeria?

Nigeria is the world's sixth largest producer of Liquefied Petroleum Gas also known as Cooking Gas but has the lowest utilization of LPG in sub-Saharan Africa with a potential to produce 5 million metric tonnes of cooking gas yearly and a national usage of merely 350,000 tonnes.

Mrs Nkechi Obi (Executive Vice-Chair of Techno Oil Ltd) said "LPG or cooking gas users find it extremely difficult to refill their cylinders. Sometimes, they travel as far as 200km before they can access facilities to refill their cylinders". She added "Our desire is for government to provide incentives for investors to build refilling plants and terminals and DPR to incorporate LPG plants in all mega stations within reach of communities, so that people can refill their cylinders with ease and at an affordable cost"

Mr Dayo Adesina (President of NLPGA) said with a population of over 160 million people, Nigeria ought to consume 5,000,000 tonnes of LPG/cooking gas every year rather than a 350,000 tonnes. He maintained that the gas that would be processed into cooking gas was abundant in Nigeria as the country has more gas than oil, adding however that consumption could only rise to 5,000,000 tonnes per annum if firewood and other dirty and poisonous fuels were discouraged.
