It is widely agreed that one of the most basic needs of man is shelter and in time past man has experienced with different material in order to meet with his housing needs. In modern day history, the use of cement along with sand and gravel as come to be accepted as one of the best construction raw material because they provide durability, firmness and can withstand harsh weather conditions though other materials like steel and glass are also used.

The ever increasing deficit in housing supply in Nigeria which is estimated at over sixteen million {16,000,000} units and the need for the construction of other important infrastructure if the country is to meet up with the vision 20:2020 project of becoming amongst the top 20 economies in the world by 2020 continues to drive the need to cement, an essential construction raw material.

Cement is a binder, a substance that sets and hardens as the cement dries and also reacts with carbon dioxide in the air dependently, and can bind other materials together.Cement is the best known binding material. Over the period of time, different varieties of Cement have been prepared to accommodate all needs.

Nigeria cement production capacity is between an estimated 26 million tons and 28 million tons per annum and the industry has witnessed 95.6 per cent growth in the span of 8 years, beginning 2005 to 2012.

Cement are usually packaged in 50KG and minimum purchase of one trailer load that is 600 bags monthly is allowed.Ex factory price for the product differs from one producer to the other.

As dealer, your return on investment is a function of where and whom you decide to sell to. The average ex-factory price of cement in Nigeria is N1,000/ Bag and since one trailer load  is 600 of 50kg bags each, the total investment required is N600,000 { Not inclusive of transportation}. Retailing at N 1,600, your grood profit will be N 600 x 600 bags = N360,000 . Selling to retailers at the cost of N1,350 would earn you N 350 x 600 bags = N210,000.
