Oluhills007:
Happy easter to us all.. Been a while let me drop the other 2 ways one can participate in the haulage and logistics sector.

Also another way to be in the logistics sector is through fleet management

actually entering into fleet management is actually way cheaper and you don't need much money to start except money for registration of the fleet company and other related expenses. However being a fleet manager is more time consuming and stressful.

Fleet management involves helping people manage their trucks and paying them a commission per month.
People will bring in their trucks to your company, register it with you, while you go out and look for the deals. And you pay them per month. Its just like they buy shares into your company by means of buying tricks and handing it over to you

You need some people skills, you need to be able to reach out to a lot of people and flow with them easily. Also you need to be able to secure deals and secure people who have trucks but can't manage it themselves. there are lots of people out there who have trucks and don't know how to manage it also there are other people out there who have the money to invest but don't know what to invest in. Encouraging people to invest in your business is no small deal we all know that. With scammers all around the place. However you can Still make a head way.

you will be in charge of the trucks securing deals and maintaining the trucks. so you are more like a broker fleet management is also more like a broker however a broker is different from a fleet manager. A broker dosent need to register a company. All he needs to do is look for the deals, look for truck owners and connect them together for a commission. A fleet manager is also more organised

Another part of the haulage and logistic which people benefit from is the services sector.

if you are a mechanic or a mechanical engineering graduate without a job or being underpaid, a very good place to enter into logistics is actually through services and consulting. this includes servicing of trucks, repairing the trucks and consultancy services on the type and brand of trucks to buy for a particular purpose

However you need to be trained so you can speak authoritatively when you speak to people about trucks to buy or what to do about their trucks. in nigeria most truck mechanics do their work is just trial and error. Why don't you go out there and make a difference.

you have any personal questions you want to ask or you intend to get into any if the sectors.. You can reach me on Oluadewale007@gmail.com. even though I'm usually busy I will try and reply you on time.

Note* I'm not a writer I just want to pass a message of opportunities across to Nigerian youths

Aside from these cheap ways of going into haulage and logistics business, are there no other cheaper way like registering a business name and getting trucks for clients since am in good rapore with truck managers.
