Meat		#5 Posted : Friday, February 24, 2012 10:22:38 AM
Rank: Hello Joined: 2/24/2012 Posts: 3		I am selling one of my meats shops. It’s equipped with modern meat handling equipment and could turn out a rewarding business venture for you. The average walk-in customers for the business is 1,500 people per month. If the business does not grow further the projected annual turnover this year is around KES.6.6 Million. The gross margin is 15 – 30% depending on products and seasons. The main business assets include; • Trustworthy & competent staff who I’ve trained in prime-meat cut sales & shop management. • Refrigerated display counter (2Mtrs) • Bone-cutting machine - Italian • Commercial meat mincing machine - Italian • Intelligent digital weighing scale that can produce receipts & summary reports making it easy for you to manage stocks even when you are not physically at the shop. • Heavy-duty spring weighing scale (the clock-faced type) • Deep freezer • Fixtures which include an office for the owner with internet connection, a green grocery section within the meat shop, and work-top counters. • Networking with reliable suppliers – including KMC, poultry farmers, goat farmers and fish wholesalers. • Measuring systems for cash-flow management, stock management and profit tracking. The business is located in Eastlands, off Outering road. The ideal buyer would be an investment club or individual with adequate cash-flow stamina to take-up both walk-in & corporate customers. The place is secure and the business has grown and has a lot of potential to grow – especially in the direction of corporate customers. The selling price for the business is KES. 1.25 million. I would be available to make clearer issues that you would probably need clarified for you to make an informed purchase decision. Sincerely, Eric 0712 621139

Rank: Hello Joined: 2/24/2012 Posts: 3		I'm planning to relocate to a place that would make it rather expensive logistically to manage the business. I understand your fears. Yes, the business is good but not perfect.I'm available to share the good and the ugly side of the business with potential buyers. You can relax - you won't be conned. Anyone who makes the purchase will do so with a clear picture of the business.

Rank: Hello Joined: 2/24/2012 Posts: 3		Hi Luttz? I've sent you more information as requested. Sasa Chemos? Yes, people eat a lot in Eastlands. A square kilometer in Eastlands could potentially have a stronger purchasing power for FMCG than a square kilometer up-market. The bottom of the pyramid opportunity!I have compared my outlet to others around Ngong road and it's true in Mashariki we eat. Obviously you will do more bulk-breaking in Hon. Waititu's turf than a butcher shop in Westlands but there are still so many comparative advantages of starting a meat shop in Mashariki than along James Gichuru road. While up-market shoppers will generally make their purchases once in a month (or something close to that), quite a number of Eastlanders make purchases almost every other day. Some even come to my shop twice a day - for lunch supplies and then in the evening for dinner supplies. This are just realities of hand to mouth livelihoods. In Eastlands you can reasonably predict what number of customers will come to your shop and stock-up adequately in anticipation of them. Up-market meat shops will generally go through lot's of surprises. You will run-out of stocks on one day when so many people show-up to buy their monthly supplies and throw away decomposing stocks on another day when customers don't show-up. Just my two cents...

Rank: User Joined: 9/6/2013 Posts: 1,446 Location: In a house		What are the pros and cons of this business? I have been thinking of starting one around my area(not anywhere close to Nairobi) and I project selling 40-50kgs of meat(goat, beef and chicken) everyday. I'd also add grocery to the business. I'd also like to know the capital(itemized) required to start a small butchery.
