What amount would be enough to start the business?

Truth be told. The advent of smart mobile devices have partially shut down Cyber Cafe business esp couple with increase expenses due to high cost of fuel.
NO GO AREA for me

What attracts and makes a Cafe unique for patronage is your ability to render almost all services needed in a strategic location. I know a friend of mine doing well in this business. Almost no time for himself.

Machines for DI printing, photocopy, laminating machine, ID Card printing machine, passport photograph machine, spiral binder and all sorts will keep alot of people running to your business Centre. Also, sell stuffs in bulk like A4 Paper, jotters, binding paper, concord paper and the rest. The mistake people make in the business is focusing on internet services alone which people can largely do with their smartphones except for specialized registrations that requires biometric thumprint such as NYSC, WAEC, NECO and the likes.

make sure your shop is located close to a tertiary institution

hmmm not too bad. online ebiz and payment processing has put a spike to the biz

Oh, great.
You're right.

Initially, I was planning to go into photocopying and online registration only. But judging by what you've posted now, I'm so much convinced.

The capital is just the main thing.

Thanks for this.

Try to add computer training to your business.

You'll need like additional 2 desktop for that so that when business is dull you'll still be busy and you can delegate work to one of ur students when you're in peak period.
