This post is basically for the following category of people.
- People who genuinely need a job and are not ashamed of the dignity in labor
- People who have access to fund of 100,000 NGN below and need a soft business idea
- Fish farmers who are not happy with off-takers pricing and need other channels for value addition.
This been said, let’s get to business.
CATFISH BARBEQUE GRILLING BUSINESS WITH 60,000NGN CAPITAL
| ITEM | COST (NGN) |
| GRILL | 15000 |
| SAUCE, IRISH POTATOES & CONDIMENTS | 4000 |
| CATFISH (10KG) | 9000 |
| FOIL PAPER | 500 |
| CUTLERY, FRY PANS | 7000 |
| COAL & OIL | 25000 |
| TABLE & CANOPY | 20000 |
| MISCELLANEOUS | 2000 |
| TOTAL | 60000 |
What to do
- Find a busy spot with heavy mobile and pedestrian traffic
- Draw and mesmerize your audience with music, while you add fish fat/oil to the fire and grill for aroma.
- Ensure you use the hybrid fish aka Heteroclarias
- Be prompt and punctual
- Cut a 2.2kg catfish into 7 parts and prepare
- Marinate fish for about 2 hours for deep absorption of spice

SELLING PRICE
- For 2.2kg, Each part costs N500 while head costs N700
- For 3-4kg fish, head costs N1500 while body parts cost N700 to N1000 especially in great locations
PROFITABILITY
On your worst days, you make at least N1000 profit per fish and that is like N5000 on a 10kg order daily. 5000×30 days = 150,000 (how much is your friend’s salary again?)

Good evening Ma. I plan to start the business. Just thinking if I can acess a grill that uses electric or gas? Or is it better to use charcoal? Thank you Ma
Hi, Gimbiya
Any of both is fine, as long as your target customers are not taste-specific.
To be safe, you can do a small survey to better understand the market demand in your locality.
