Punching Blades

There is printing component that will enable you print designs on this bags. You can buy this component or ignore it, you can sub-contract printing of designs to another company and pay them, printing in Balogun market Lagos early this year, went for 100 naira per print.

If you plan on making small nylon bags without designs, then you don’t need this component at all. However, if you can afford the cost of buying a fully automatic machine, I will advice you get that one since its more effective and faster.

3. Acquire Capital

The machines maybe a bit large so emphasize to your real estate agent about space, you don’t want a cramped up working environment.

It is always a bonus to get a physical shop near or inside a local market, this means you are closer to your customers and,transportation is easier.

5. Do Some Research/Develop a Business Plan

Do not be a victim of ignorance and lack of proper knowledge or maintenance. Do your research on how to make this product, it is far from enough to purchase the machines stated above, you must learn how to use them or face the risk of having spoilt machines all over the place. Furthermore, develop a business plan on which you can manage your business.

Experts have discovered that the reason why 60% of businesses fail in Nigeria, is because the lack a proper business plan. Some people delve into businesses without even been able to differentiate capital from profit.

Develop a business plan and follow it with a all commitment, set a goal and objective and do not stop till you attain it.

6. Start Making Nylons

Polythene bags are made by heating and cutting rolls of film. Rolls of sheeting or tubing are fed through the machine.

The Device then draws out the rolls into segments of specified length, cycles to place a seal on each segment, and cuts off each segment to make an individual bag.

This process might seen rudimentary in nature, but trust me, it becomes a part of you in no time, like putting on your cloths in the morning.

7. Sell Your Products

However, this stores may require that you, print certain brand designs on the polythene  bags and they prefer to buy in bundles. Once you get four of this kind of customers, you can be raking in 100,000 naira every month for the first six months.
