crate of egg can cost N650 or less from farm depending on the size you
choose to buy, any balance left will be incurred on fueling your vehicle and

wholesaler, but if you sell as a retailer, you gain N300 on a crate. In a

Great article…i've bn in the poultry business for a while now in jos..the problem I have is the market is very inconsistent sometimes I sell well sometimes I dont and incur losses
But Adam Garba,
I really want to do something meaning this year. Is this business really profitable to you? When did you start? I currently have 160K, will you advice me to start with that? I await ur reply
I ve bn in it for 5 yrs nw..to be honest its not my main source of income and I ll advice any1 to have something else doing..160 is more than enough…my advice to you is test your market 1st just get a few crates and find your customers if you sell in due time and its demanded then you can try expanding if not find your customers first
Thanks for your wonderful reply. I'll reconsider my options.
