Rebuke:
I have this strong desire for a bakery business and I am looking forward to starting one soon.

I was told by a member here that one could start a bakery business with 600k or even less. I need people who are into this business to please come in here and share their experiences and any helpful information for intending bakery owners here.


Please, I want this thread to be solely for those who have anything meaningful to contribute to the subject and not some unnecessary adverts and noise. Thank yhu all in advance.

Sir, if you want to make premium bread that stands out, then you must be concerned about the kind of equipment you use.

babyfaceafrica:
who told you Lebanese are not spiritually strong sir?...you are very funny!!....the only part I agree in your post is Jesus has all the powers..hit please don't be naive,even people selling borehole water 10 naira and 20 naira know what they are facing

khatea:

Bakery is now every where. Every minimart and super market in my vicinity at Lekki has their own bakery. I kid you not. I do not see why people should buy bread when you can bake it for consumption right from your home oven that comes with the stove.

It is just butter, flour, baking powder, nutmeg, sugar or sacarine and some other additives in a pan and at the right temperature.

Such a simple stuff or buy the rotary electric oven around a few millions and start making all sort of wheat products.

Gamble to loose but win eventually with a crack team of salesmen

Ah, I almost forgot o. I have been hearing alot about butterfield and happy chief(Big treat)

I was told their d best in Naija. I have eaten quite a lot of bread already, both inclusive bt I don't want to b the judge.


Please, I want yhur opinion on the taste.

Butterfield all the way for me....I buy it at least 5 days in a week.




Will you prefer a bread that taste more like the above mentioned or something even better.


I will list more brand later and I will b glad if we all pls drop our opinion.


Though I have my own recipe alrdy, it's a foreign based brand and mine is going to taste so much like it.

Rebuke:
Ok, today I was to meet one of the bakery owner and he later cancelled the appointment due an emergency, according to him.

Well, I won't stop till I gather reasonable infor and enough knowledge.


Somehow, this thread is becoming my own diary. Hmmmm.


I didn't create this thread for myself o. If this continues, wll leave the thread but I promise to share pix of my bakery once its opened.

Hope say una go patronise me wella sha. Watch out for me.

Visenya:
First of all, what type of bakery do you intend on opening. Is it just bread, small chops, cakes etc. I suggest you start small. I run a home bakery here in the North and for now, I only make cakes because I'm very good at it. Took me 50k to get all my starter baking equipment from Yola. I got an oven of 80k and Generator of 90k. To be honest when I entered cake house in Jimeta Market, I was confused. I had so much to buy with so little money, I almost cried. But I had to prioritize.
I went for hand mixer 8k instead of the smallest standing mixer there 19k. I got 4 pans, nozzle set, fondant equipment and much more. To be very honest with you I make nothing less than 70k on a very good week and 30 - 45k on a very bad week. I have a lot of customers and I deliver my best.

Now, you have way much capital than me when I started, you can do better. Work with what you have, work within your budget. Anyone telling you, you need mixer or oven of 500k to 1m is not good at giving advice. You can start at home, share flyers along your street and beyond. You will definitely get customers and as time goes on and you expand because you definitely will, you can now start buying sophisticated equipment one at a time.
God bless your hustle

uwelaa:
nice to have guyz here. pls I am a profesional Baker Am avaliable if any vacancy. Thank you.

uwelaa:
first and formost, pls I want to ask are u in lagos? I am a cook, chef, and a baker.I am avaliable for any vacancy. For buttterfield bread if you ask me, my opinion and answer is No they are not best as far as bread production is concern. bread deepened on the mixture, the mixer and the oven. a baker must master this three things to get a complete result. e.g continually using your oven togather with your mixer pluse perfect mixing will give you a satisfactory result.

AreaFada2:

Actually many diaspora people do lots in absentia. Building houses, running hotels, processing plants, farms, pure water factories, etc.

The idea is to come visit Nigeria regularly.
Time was when people were a bit more honest. If you left abroad over 20 years ago, you might not realise how things have changed.
