What I have observed so far It's a lucrative business(I haven't done the math though) It is stressful (still dont understand the stressful part though, since im only working on specific times) I have a BIG bet9ja shop not far from me, and have many beer parlors around(but there's still no visible "viewing center for many football lovers here, if there's one I'd be there everytime... I coudnt watch Nigerias match 2 days ago, the guy no open, and I just be like chai).... |

twentyk:actualy, I bought mine from someone using it before and need cash to travel. I pay 18k monthly for 3 dstv decoders. Since I ain't there myself, I agreed on a monthly payment. If you have your space already, u will need to construct, do chair, buy TV at least 2, buy Generator, standing fan, UPS. If you don't have already constructed place to start, budget 300k upwards depending on your taste and capability |

twentyk: Give me one good reason why I should pay 100 Naira to watch a match in your viewing center when I can buy 100 Naira water and watch it in a bar. I think that is the problem viewing centers have now |

my hubby invested in it... 3 big flat screen tvs at 40k each bug generator 45k two big standing fan 18k dstv decoder, dish and insatllation 65k wiring & workmanship 20k 40 benches 28k land 1k per month planks for building cement and sand for plastering. misscelleneous we spent more than 400k then sha....but the turn out is poor because of betshops, Hotels, Beer parlors and shops showing games for free...worst of it all...startimes is now showing most of the games and you can subscribe as low as 100h to watch a match. 5 Likes 3 Shares |

adisabarber:i gave 100 bucks to the barman here for water so I could catch a match, he declined said unless I buy malt which is 150..... To your question, I'd take a viewing center over a bar, there's a different feeling in a viewing center compare to a bar on ucl night..... That feeling alone I have greatly missed here, it's lacking and I intend to supply it...im sure there are a lot of people like me 6 Likes |

agarawu23:i don't have an alresdy constructed place, but I have a piece of land to do the job, I have a big Gen, TV would be produced, fan also.... I intend to do "free text run on the Nation's cup, I'm new in the area and just want to text waters.... I have envisioned a large turnout expecially when Nigeria is playing and the location is quite a bomb,as it's directly in front of the junction, infact all roads leads to the front of my house... That's d last junction to wherever you coming from and where you get to board another.... My aim is to take advantage of the lack of VC in that area, my believe is if one could supply one there, then you'd be patronized....

op I think from all the comments here you should know what to do, ensure you have a contingency plan especially wen season ends or stdnts go on break. viewing center are not lucrative anymore unlike before. nobody wants to squeeze himself in a crowded area with children even insulting to adjust body, they will prefer watching with a beer at hand in a bar. Go tv even shows smaller matches now not to talk of betting shops every where. Be very guided you might end up frustrated. I have not even talked about the stress, fueling and employment of a helping assistant |

twentyk: Good evening, from the replies above, I can see you don't have the answers you need yet. I currently run a viewing center, so I think I should be able to help. 1. It's a lucrative business if you are in a good location. 2. Don't make it your main hustle . 3. Go to the nearest DSTV office and get a compact plus with an extra view.. you will be paying 12800 per month. It will give you access to SS2 to SS10. 3. anticipate challenges like hotels and betting shops that shows free games. 4.. Like every other business, it won't start paying immediately, infact, it might take 3 months before you can break even. 5. You will need to find a way to pull crowd down there. People won't just come. 6!! Make sure your gadgets are working fine! you won't want your Gen to go off during a major match. If you mess up one day! it might take you weeks to get their loyalty back. 7 ! Don't take side as the owner.. it's works for me. All the best . 6 Likes 1 Share |

Location is very important. I even run mine with a bet shop, game center and they dont mind paying because i use two 32 inches tv screens and one woofer plus dstv. Now tell me why dem no go pay. I want to switch to ctl because they show all the tournaments. Dstv does not show europa and carling cup 2 Likes |
