Introduction

In Nigeria, recycling of plastic waste is one area anybody can easily venture into. The raw materials are easily found everywhere. Processing companies are looking for more suppliers to meet their needs.

Plastic waste that can be recycled includes PET bottles, Nylon bags, sachet-water nylon, PET-bottle caps, plastic containers, Nylon bags, etc.

Plastic recycling business is so vast that fortunately or unfortunately as the case may be, only few people are doing it.

Value-Chain in Plastic Recycling Business

Plastic waste collection/ Sorting / Storage – Stage 1

Baling – Stage 2

Shredding (Plastics) or Agglomeration (Nylon) – Stage 3

Pelletizing – Stage 4

From the value chain above you can enter into the business of plastic recycling in any stage depending on your financial capacity.

Plastic Waste collection/ Sorting/Storage – Stage 1

This stage is the simplest of the value chain. It is mostly dominated by our brothers from the North with high/tight trading network. However you can get your supply from other source e,g manufacturing companies waste, schools, hotels, supermarkets, etc.

Supplier/Collection/Sorting – scale – storage – sell

Equipment Needed: (1) Weighing Scale (2) Packing Bags (Optional)

Baling – stage 2

One thing about plastic recycling business is that the more you move down the value chain, the more money you make. You will make more money if you bale/sell than selling directly. Plastic recycling companies pay higher per kilo for baled products.

Baling is very important especially when transportation/distance are considered. It is better to compact (bale) plastic waste for easy handling and size reduction to save cost during transportation.

Note: Before Baling, plastic waste should be cleaned and sorted.

Supplier – Scale – Bale – Stack – Sell

Equipment Needed: (1) Scale (2) Baling Machine

Shredding or Agglomeration – stage 3

If you want to go into plastic recycling business through this stage, you need a plastic shredding machine (Machine for cutting of plastics into pieces [flakes]) or an Agglomerator (Machine for grinding Nylon into powdery form [Agglomerates])

Having these machines you can operate in two or either ways

Hello fellow Nlander in Agriculture section, I greet you bosses I believe I can meet lots of farmers in this section. Been contemplating going into farming with focus on pepper. Any idea, cost and experience would help.

But just some weeks ago, 2,000 tractors plus 8,000 farming equipments was commissioned by president Tinubu. It should have been distributed to the states to boost food security

This is the kind of narrative we need to amplify. Nigerian tech professionals are not just surviving abroad, they are leading, building, and bridging innovation between nations. It’s inspiring to see how talent from one of Africa’s youngest and fastest-growing ecosystems is influencing major sectors in the UK, while also giving back to Nigeria through networks, capital, and mentorship.

The idea that migration is purely brain drain is outdated, this is brain circulation. We’re witnessing a strategic diaspora that understands both worlds and is leveraging that duality to create real global impact. If supported further, this wave could be one of Nigeria’s most valuable exports.

It all depends on your location...

I prefer short let business though... except you've got a good location to situate your boutique.

Why do you prefer shortlet, have you experience in the business? It it possible I can rent it out 200 or even 150 days in a year ?

I have been thinking of how to invest small money in my hand and wondering if shortlet apartments or going into clothing ?

Anyone into or have incite in these businesses can you enlighten me the pros and cons.

My aim is daily/weekly income

I’m thinking of going into crayfish business, buying in quantity from sources and selling in local market to those women who sell food stuffs. Does anyone know much about this business.

Thinking of investing very well into this.

Does anyone know how to become a clearing and forwarding agent in Nigeria?

I'm thinking of buying used Keke from listings on Jiji, but I’m always skeptical about used items — especially the fear that they might be stolen. I don’t want a situation where someone shows up one day claiming the tricycle is theirs.

That said, I’m actually planning to go full-time into buying fairly used Keke and reselling them. But if you're always scared, how will you ever do business?

How can I do this safely?

The popular Nigerian Keke Napep is imported from which country ?

What’s should I ask for when I get to food/vegetable market?

I’m confused because I couldn’t tell and the women don’t seem to know either.

Enjoy 😂

You want to earn 100k daily with 5m?
That's 1m in just 10 days??
No sustainable business can provide such return.

I said 50 - 100k, why remove the 50k ?

Don’t tell me no such business exist, toy simply don’t have the information. I just don’t like going into transportation but running shuttle bus on my own will give me 50k daily after expenses.

If you have 5 million what business can you go into to be earning 50 - 100k daily ?

Share your idea

I’m planning on going into cement business. Business a trailer load and selling to locals.

Anyone has any idea or advice before venturing into it is appreciated

Nn

Wisdom is to appear weak to those in power so they can feel themselves very well and let those f00ls up there keep saying it’s cowardice. One day it will sup and you’ll know all these while Igbos are not stupid.

A day of reckoning will come and all you enjoying closeness with Igbo without respecting us will answer for killing over 2 million Igbos and destroying everything we worked for.

Look at us today, those you destroyed their region, businesses and human recourse yet we came out to the top again on individual struggles no government assist whatsoever, yet you rejoice at our pain simply because we demanded regional government so that wicked and selfish leaders don’t keep exploiting ordinary man like you who isn’t even benefiting anything but marred with wretchedness and poverty in your stupid tribalism.

It is nature and how it will happen none of us can tell but even as you were told that Igbos should never rule Nigeria know it’s not possible that Igbos will not rule Nigeria someday. When that time come I hope history you don’t forget.

Keep rejoicing at we being cowards to the power you hold today. Nonse!
