Executive Summary

Agro Business Piggery Farm Ltd is a startup pig farm that rear healthy pig and process high quality pork meat to meet an unsatiated need for quality pork meat in Lagos. Agro Business Piggery Farm has been in business for two years now and has grown in popularity. What was once a business targeting solely the Lagos community has grown into a business that has far broader appeal and customer base in Lagos and neighbouring states. 

Our business is production and sales of pork and live pigs. Our major aim is to establish a large farm that will produce these pigs in commercial quantities and sell to my numerous customers. 

We want to feed Nigeria with healthy meat and export to other countries. We will ensure that we sell the highest number of pigs for pork in Lagos and increase production every year in order to satisfy our customers. 

The most important thing in my business is hygiene and best practices in animal production. 

Our most important company strengths are measurement of life pigs weight, processing and packaging of pork, none of our products are exposed for contamination, and best possible hygienic measures are taken.
