A Sample LPG Cooking Gas Plant Business Plan Template
1. Industry Overview
A cooking gas plant is a place where both individual and small businesses that also retail cooking gas go to refill their cooking gas cylinder. It is usually more organized and bigger than the average small scale gas shops that you can find around street corners.
In essence businesses in this industry retail cooking gas to individuals and small businesses. The Cooking Gas Plants industry over the years has experienced a modest amount of volatility. As a matter of fact, as more Nigerians switch from kerosene stoves to gas cookers, the demand for cooking gas also increase.
So also, as per capita disposable income continued to increase, some household, even people in a smaller apartment would choose to go for gas cooker even if it is camp gas as against settling for the not too pleasant coal stove or kerosene gas. Besides, in Nigeria of today it is not more economical to make use of
Just like other industry, the cooking gas plants industry has also experienced its fair share of ups and downs over the last five years. As a result of restiveness in the Niger Delta area of Nigeria and also the recent fall in global oil and gas prices.
The Cooking Gas Plants industry is indeed a very large industry and pretty much thriving in all the parts of the world especially in countries in Africa. In Nigeria alone, there are loads of cooking gas station scattered all around metropolitan cities such as Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Ibadan, Kaduna and Calabar et al.
The industry is known to employ several thousands of people. There are no cooking gas plant companies that can boast of having the lion share in the Nigeria market; the industry is pretty much open for competitions.
Although the cooking gas plants industry can be said to be a competitive industry, but it does not in any way stop entrepreneurs who are creative and financially capable to still make headway in the industry. It is indeed a profitable industry especially when the business is well located.
No doubt residential estates and busy cities with growing population is highly suitable for cooking gas plants. The catch is that if there are households that make use of gas cookers in any city, then the city would have need for a cooking gas plant.

6. SWOT Analysis
No doubt starting a cooking gas plant is indeed capital intensive especially for aspiring entrepreneurs who may not have huge sum of money saved up in a bank.
We are aware that it will require loads of cash to set up a standard cooking gas plant in Akoka – Lagos State which is why we decided to do all that is required to build a profitable business; we don’t intend to invest our hard earn money in a business that we know we are not truly cut out for.
One of the tools that are required to position us in building a successful cooking gas plant business is SWOT Analysis. We hired the services of a HR and Business consultant who is based in Lagos – Nigeria to help us conduct SWOT analysis for our company and he did a pretty good job for us.
Here is a of the result we got from the SWOT analysis that was conducted on behalf of Blessed Cooking Gas Plant, Akoka – Lagos;
- Strength:
Blessed Cooking Gas Plant is centrally located along one of the busiest area in Akoka – Lagos State; our location is in fact one of our major strength. Aside from the basic service that we offer, we also offer complimentary services that most of our competitors are not offering.
So also the vast experience of our management team, we have people on board who are highly experienced and understands how to grow business from the scratch to becoming a national phenomenon and our attendants are well groomed to handle various classes of customers; our excellent customer service culture will definitely count as a strong strength for the business.
- Weakness:
Our perceived weakness could be the fact it is a new cooking gas plant business which is owned by an individual (a small family), and we may not have the financial capacity to sustain the kind of publicity that can give us leverage and start operating chains of gas plants in various cities in the Nigeria as planned.
- Opportunities:
We are centrally located in one of the busiest communities in Akoka – Lagos State and we are open to all the available opportunities that the city has to offer.
Our business concept also positioned us to attract people who like service and repair their gas cookers, purchase gas cookers, gas cylinder and accessories. Akoka is one of the densely populated communities in Lagos State with a handful of higher institutions, and indeed populations translate to opportunities.
- Threat:
One of the major threats that confront businesses all over the world is economic downturn; when the economy is bad it affects consumers spending which in turn impacts businesses negatively. Another threat that we are likely going to face to confront us is the emergence of a new cooking gas plant, small gas shop or even a filling station that retail gas within the same location where ours is located.

Generating Funding/Startup Capital for Blessed Cooking Gas Plant
No matter how fantastic your business idea might be, if you don’t have the required money to finance the business, the business might not become a reality. Finance is a very important factor when it comes to starting a business such as kerosene retailing business.
No doubt raising start – up capital for a business might not come cheap, but it is a task that an entrepreneur must go through. Blessed Cooking Gas Plant is a family business that is owned and financed by Mr. Linus Uchenna and his immediate family members.
We do not intend to welcome any external business partners, which is why we have decided to restrict the sourcing of the start – up capital to 3 major sources. These are the areas we intend generating our start – up capital;
- Generate part of the start – up capital from personal savings and sell of stocks
- Source for soft loans from family members and friends
- Apply for loan from my Bank
N.B: We have been able to generate about N1 million (Personal savings N800,000 and soft loan from family members N200,000) and we are at the final stages of obtaining a loan facility of N1.5 million from our bank. All the papers and document have been signed and submitted, the loan has been approved and any moment from now our account will be credited with the amount.
14. Sustainability and Expansion Strategy
The future of a business lies in the numbers of loyal customers that they have, the capacity and competence of the employees, their investment strategy and the business structure. If all of these factors are missing from a business (company), then it won’t be too long before the business close shop.
One of our major goals of starting Blessed Cooking Gas Plant is to build a business that will survive off its own cash flow without the need for injecting finance from external sources once the business is officially running.
We know that one of the ways of gaining approval and winning customers over is to retail our cooking gas and other products and services a little bit cheaper than what is obtainable in the market and we are well prepared to survive on lower profit margin for a while.
Blessed Cooking Gas Plant will make sure that the right foundation, structures and processes are put in place to ensure that our staff welfare are well taken of. Our company’s corporate culture is designed to drive our business to greater heights and training and re – training of our workforce is at the top burner.
As a matter of fact, profit-sharing arrangement will be made available to all our management staff and it will be based on their performance for a period of three years or more. We know that if that is put in place, we will be able to successfully hire and retain the best hands we can get in the industry; they will be more committed to help us build the business of our dreams.
