Bakery or poultry (layer/broiler)?

Please move to fb for broad advice
Look at the factors of production and use them to make your choice... You need more capital for Bakery than poultry, that is if you're going for modernized Bakery. For poultry you need more land outside a residential area than a bakery you can situate in d neighborhood. A modern Bakery requires electricity, you know how that goes in Naija. A local Bakery will frustrate you. In short I will most likely advice you to go the poultry way in a farm area where you can even use the poultry waste as manure. It's far batter than Bakery I think

That's why Ill like to lay emphasis on Capital...that's for the starting...bliv me...the profit is much... except something went wrong

Egbon,Bro,Bros maybe you are still mathing it on paper hence why it looks attractive, seen millionaires go into this business and when you ask them how far they exclaim and be like "Omo".


I no go talk beyond that.

Don't also forget to factor in when they get sick for no reasons and they have a sudden drop in prodcution.

Most bakeries have shut down due to cost of production and too much operational expenses.
Go for poultry business, you not spend much to make profit.
same thing with poultry too. Poultry farmers are lamenting of high cost of birds feeds.

Why not both? Build a poultry and use the eggs for your bakery. Think about it. You can later expand to include cows and goats; now you can have eggs, cheese, butter and magarine for your bakery. Saves you a ton of money and also increases your revenue. Good luck.
Great advice!!
Re: Bakery Or Poultry: Which Of These Two Businesses Should I Go For? by Sezi4Christ: 7:42pm On May 07, 2022
The best decision depends on your personal factors. Prices of baking products have been increasing since the pandemic plus the rising cost of diesel which you would need to power your bakery appliances. To start a bakery, I would advice that you learn how to bake. That way, you don't have to spend much on paying bakers who are often times unreliable.

I think bakery is OK as people must eat bread

But you see that poultry, you need to understand the Nitty Gritty of running poultry else the birds will reduce from 100 to 25 birds

You will just see them dying any how

Bakery is more friendly than poultry
Re: Bakery Or Poultry: Which Of These Two Businesses Should I Go For? by Cousin9999: 7:51pm On May 07, 2022
I'd say it depends on your background, where you intend to do business, what you expect from it, how much time you can devote to it, and what you have to invest. Baking is one of the cheapest things you can do. And you can do it out of your own house. However, there's more to consider.

Some pros and cons for poultry:
Pros - fairly easy to sell, high demand, can do it almost anywhere, can sell byproducts, may be easy to add good companion products (certain crops or animals)

Cons - can be expensive to set up and run, high risk if you lack expertise, margins may not be good, you may not learn something you can use elsewhere, dirty and smelly, output may be limited by finance or expertise

For bakery:
Pros - easy, cheap to do, high margins, can do it without a proper shop, high demand, easy to diversify product

Cons - low barrier to entry means lots of competition, may struggle to compete with large suppliers, may struggle to appeal to taste preferences, easy but requires skill, good staffing could be expensive, equipment for a proper operation could be expensive, days can be long

Some are saying poultry is expensive while others are equally saying bakary is expensive. Lol.
Just go out there and verify the prices of items you're going to need for whichever you decide to go into. Itemise what you are going to need, know their prices and compare with your budget first.

I'm a livestock farmer (poultry,fish and pig) since 2001 till date, please don't go near poultry for now. The problems are much, I won't say more and my candid advise for you.
Re: Bakery Or Poultry: Which Of These Two Businesses Should I Go For? by Internet22: 8:36pm On May 07, 2022
Both businesses are not good right now, don't venture into any of them unless you're ready to loose your money.
Re: Bakery Or Poultry: Which Of These Two Businesses Should I Go For? by Carparts888(m): 8:43pm On May 07, 2022
Trust me bakery is worst. The cost of production is on a triple digit and lots have shut down operations in Lagos here I have personally witnessed.
Poultry too is experiencing this inflations too but not as bad as bakery and I believe there can be alternative feeds that can be given to the birds and sourced for locally at a cheaper rate.

This advise is just for you. Livestock business in nigeria is a gamble you might break even and might get depressed after irreplaceable loss. I am a consultant in the field and I am talking from experience. There are lesser risks in bakery business, bakers are even making whatever they like and believe me people buy it like dat. But if your birds starts dying as a resultof carelessness you can't trace, no one will hear your story. Nuff said
Thylord:
If you are not strong hearted like buuhari,pls don't go for poultry,if vaccine fail and those birds begin DIE my dearest sister,you fit get high BP. Especially if fowl cholerae come visiting.poultry business is meant for strong hearted people like buuhari.
Am ditching out this advice from me to you because have been there series of times.
Forget the nonsense advice that some of those poultry health practitional will be giving to you.

If you have solid capital pls and pls go for bakery.

At least you can retrieve a greater portion of your investment and even sell off machines. Viral infection dey strike like pestilence. They're not to be compared.

I hate to be the harbinger of bad news but poultry business is for the strong hearted.

In the past 4 months, I've been actively taking care of birds. From feeding to medication to water to cleaning to monitoring them. If one of them catches a disease, start immediately with aggressive treatment, if not, you'll be so so devastated.

Bakery....Baking has more consumers per daily sales.


Very Lucrative

I have a client whom I helped create a thousand buyers of her coconut bread.


@Seniorwriter
I've done both

As a poultry attendant/fish/pigs and also as a Baker/mixer


Only 40 crates of eggs for a day just from a single pen will give you over twice what a Baker will get for two days

But I wouldn't advice anyone to just venture into poultry without at least 360° experience though

Poultry pays more than bakery on the long run, but I'll advice the op to go for baking if she is not strong hearted (yes I used that statement)
