A brief profile of profitability:

Assume to crush 25 metric tonnes per day,

Prices at Enugu as at 26th of JUNE 2017,

Palm Kernel Nuts (PKN) = N140,000 per tonne
Palm Kernel Oil (PKO) = N400,000 per tonne
Palm kernel Cake (PKC)= N40,000 per tonne
Palm kernel Sludge(PKSl)=N100,000 per tonne

YIELD:

At normal yield of 40%
When input 2.5 tons of PKN (kernel nuts) into our expeller you will get one ton of oil (PKO), 1.25 tons Cake (PKC) and about 0.35 tons of Sludge (PKSL)

25 tonnes of PKN costing 140,000 x 25= 3,500,000 would yield thus;
10 tonnes of PKO =400,000 x 10= 4,000,000
12.5 tonnes of PKC=40,000 x 12.5= 500,000
1.25 tonnes of PKSL=100,000 x 3.5= 350,000
Total 4,850,000

Gross Margin 4,850,000 less 3,500,000 = 1,350,000 per day
Assume 50% charge as operation and other expenses
1,350,000 divide by 2 =675,000
In six working days 675,000 x 6 =N4,050,000
In four weeks 4,050,000 x 4 = 16,200,000

All things being equal and you work consistently daily without break You could take home a net profit of 16,200, 000 per month

NOTE: Factory can be operated on 24 hrs bases using electric generating plant that uses converted condesate or (black-oil) fuel at about 100 naira per litre instead of 180 naira per litre of pure diesel using the system called 'decarbonizing plant system' thereby cutting costs by half and increasing profits.

What is the cost of the uncracked palm kernel per ton in Enugu environs. From my observations, it is sold in cement bags @#700 per bag.

Nice job you did with the survey.

Let's put aside the theoretical aspect which you seem to understand well,my question is:- Do you have hands-on experience in this business?

Kobicove, this is my 28th years in the industry apart from the fact that I entered the industry as a professional accountant with an MBA degree.

The boom season for PKO business is around the corner

I'm interested in the palm kernel processing business but I need someone who is actively involved in it as a partner/technical adviser.

Can you please provide a brief profile/rundown of your experience in a palm kernel processing factory?

Thank you

If you have accommodation, any thing from N3 million can start you up

Temporary factory houses like this could even be used in the case of limited start capital

Folks the boom season is just around the corner

The boom season is around the corner so interested investors are invited to make inquiries
