CosmeticChemist:
Interesting !.. What is the production capacity in kg ? how many grams of bar soap can it produce ?.

depending on the size and shape of the eyelet/orifice/die, it plods soap that can give 13k to 15k tablet between 6 to 8 hours of operation. It uses a 15HP electric motor

CosmeticChemist:
Locally fabricated plodder ?

yes, and I fabricated it myself...

yes, I use plodder and other machines...

CosmeticChemist:
great bar of soap ! you used a plodder ?

I use machines and its hot process. I use hot caustic...

smallblow:
@ iHart, are these soap made with machine or it is also a cold process ?

Buchika:
@ihart, those bar soaps in picture is it your product, looks good. wish I can be able to do such.

yes

...in securing our profession, that is where ICCON have failed!!! In pharmaceutical companies, NAFDAC insist that the person in charge of production must be a pharmacy (a production pharmacist) whereas that is the job of an industrial chemist. If you come down to quality control, we are battling it with Biochemists. When the industrial process becomes large and cumbersome, the Chemical engineer takes it all. Advances in technology is worsening the case. For instance, microelectronic and embedded systems have led to cheap, simple and easy-to-use technologies that can do several real time, in-process and on-the-spot analyses that could have only been done by a chemist in a conventional lab. But today any person that lays hand on any of those kits can run hundreds of analyses on the go. The big problem in Nigeria is that we are not following the world trend in education. Here, industrial chemistry training begins and ends in "titration". Our curriculum need to be upgraded to include areas like computing, design, embedded systems, automation, instrumentation etc. Our regulatory bodies (CSN and ICCON) should really do something to keep this profession relevant. Industrial chemistry is still relevant!

CosmeticChemist:
Thank you very much.. you have really contributed to this thread..

I hope you will contribute to mine when I start it and tell my story?... *wink*

kejibabe:
yes, I thought as much but people are already demanding for wholesale. I live in a typical rural area .the lowest price for soap here is #60 @retail price and that's what they go for. although mine is abit bigger than the 60 Naira own.
what do u advice

if yours is bigger, reduce the size. try using weight to compare soaps in the matket

kejibabe:
yeah, I made soap. the materials I used cost me 2450 and after cutting it @ 50 per one, I still get 2450....how do I make profit

sell at 60 per one,.. :-) nice and beautiful soap. keep it up...

hahaha, funny people

its a pity. RIP

good news...

cheikishfarms:
Ok, i get it...the 0% risk ok 0.9% risk.

leave all these your % risk, that business has its own risk. How do you even measure this risk?

cheikishfarms:
We have species of palm oil that can never deteriorates fast.

but they deteriorates na!!! so its not 0% risk

cheikishfarms:
Come and buy over all our products palm oil, store and make sure 50% increased profit. Or we can store for you too and sell on agreed cost together. It's 0% risk investment. Contact my signature lets discuss more

storing oil is 0% risk? what about rancidity?

hmnnnmmmm

pls I need help writing a business plan for bar soap anybody! somebody! Help

are you willing to pay for it?

[quote author=damoore10 post=55822845][/quote]I can't really tell because I don't know the actual distance between UDI, the place and Awka.

damoore10:
I need a small quantity of PKO, between 20-50 liters. please does anyone know where I can get it in Awka.

There is place they crush palm kernel around Oji river. When you get to Oji through old road, ask and you will get direction but what I don't know is if they sell anything less than a drum...

ewen:
pls how much is a drum of PKO?

divide 320k by 5...

Ike4God:
Yah thank you very much Bro, but I've been to Ehi road at Aba behind ckc as you describe but the price I got there was not encouraging, 250/4lits that's the same price I get on the street of pH. only #10 difference if am buying like 1k quantity, but I believe a company will do cheaper if am doing the same quantity or more. meanwhile its going to be a long term deal for like 50yrs contract and they gonna produce 150ml, 300ml, 500ml, 1lit and 3lits all in thousands.

then you don't need to go far. there in PH, look for a big bottle water producing firm. most of then blow their own PET,... Get in contact with them and strike a deal. one bottle water factory in my village does that as side business, so I believe those in town will be glad to do it as well. Or look for a pharmaceutical firm around, mount surveillance and wait to catch companies supplying PET to them... Or take out time and visit osisioma in Aba, there are many plastic companies there. Ask questions, move around and trek well well, get contacts... If you need a special design, you will have to arrange a mold...

Enter Aba, find your way to school road behind CKC, aba. You will see a lot of plastic dealers, then make your choice. At this stage of your business no company will be able to make customised container for you. or rather you may not have the financial strength to make a "minimum order". Good luck
