Kaduna’s Long Run in Aluminium

Kaduna’s aluminium and glass sector isn’t a recent trend — it has a genuine industrial track record behind it. General Metal Products Limited, headquartered at Kakuri, Kaduna, has spent more than four decades designing and manufacturing aluminium and steel doors, windows, curtain walls, roof lights, shelves and security doors, running a full manufacturing plant with regional offices across northern, eastern and western Nigeria. That kind of sustained local production sits alongside Kaduna’s broader identity as one of Northern Nigeria’s oldest heavy-industry centres, with aluminium products long grouped among its core manufactured goods. Whatever the size of your own fabrication or glass business, Kaduna has decades of manufacturing history in this exact trade — a properly registered business is how you formally take part in it.

What’s Included in the ₦35,500

We handle the full Business Name registration for aluminium and glass works businesses in Kaduna State for ₦35,500 all-inclusive, covering the government filing fee and our service fee together — the option that fits most independent fabricators, glass installers and small aluminium traders starting out, giving you a properly registered business without the extra structure many don’t yet need (a Limited Liability Company registration is also available at ₦65,500 all-inclusive, worth considering once you’re handling large commercial projects, supplying contractors directly, or bringing in business partners).

• Business name availability search
• Business name reservation
• Completion and submission of the CAC Business Name application
• CAC government filing/processing fee
• Your Certificate of Registration (soft copy)
• Tax Identification Number (TIN)
• A CAC Status Report confirming your business is active on the public register

It really is this simple: send us your business name on WhatsApp, and we’ll handle everything else.

Want the Limited Liability Company instead? For ₦65,500 all-inclusive you get everything above plus your Memorandum and Articles of Association (Memart) and personal liability protection — worth it once you’re operating at commercial scale or bringing on partners. See the comparison below.

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost

For most aluminium and glass works businesses in Kaduna, a Business Name covers what’s needed to trade with homeowners, contractors and developers under a properly registered name. Once you’re handling large commercial projects, supplying materials across LGAs, or bringing on investors, the Limited Liability Company structure tends to fit better — it separates your personal assets from the business. You can start with a Business Name and convert later.

Requirements for CAC Registration in Kaduna

You most likely already have these ready:

1. Two proposed business names, ranked by preference
2. A valid means of ID — National ID (NIN), international passport, or driver’s license
3. A passport photograph
4. Your business address in Kaduna State — indicating the LGA
5. Phone number and email address
6. Nature of business — described simply, e.g. “aluminium fabrication” or “glass and curtain wall installation”
7. If you choose Limited Liability Company instead: names, ID and details of directors and shareholders

Nothing here needs advance preparation. Send it across on WhatsApp whenever convenient, and we’ll match it to CAC’s requirements.

Step-by-Step: How Little This Actually Takes

1. Check name availability on CAC’s public search portal — handled on our end.
2. Reserve the name once availability is confirmed.
3. Complete the application with your business, director and Kaduna address details.
4. Upload your ID and passport photograph — a phone photo is fine.
5. Pay the ₦35,500 filing fee, a one-time payment covering everything.
6. Receive your Certificate of Registration, TIN and Status Report, usually within 5–7 working days.

Beyond that first message and a single payment, there’s nothing left for you to chase up.

What’s Not Usually Included

• Physical/printed copies of your certificate (delivered as soft copy; you print locally whenever convenient)
• Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) compliance for aluminium and glass product quality standards
• Import documentation for aluminium profiles, glass panels or hardware sourced from abroad
• NESREA compliance for scrap metal and glass waste handling at fabrication sites
• Site safety compliance for installation work on commercial and residential buildings
• Business bank account opening, done with your chosen bank once your certificate is in hand
• Annual returns filing in future years — a small, separate step we can also help with when the time comes

Fabricating and installing aluminium and glass work well comes down to things a certificate can’t teach — precise measurements, reliable material suppliers, and installations that hold up over time. CAC registration is the comparatively simple part by comparison, and it’s worth getting settled early, since it’s the document that lets you open supplier and contractor accounts formally, under a properly recognised business name, rather than trading informally indefinitely.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does CAC registration cost for an aluminium or glass works business in Kaduna State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive, the same across all 23 LGAs. A Limited Liability Company registration is also available for ₦65,500 all-inclusive.

What do I actually get for the ₦35,500? Your name search and reservation, the completed CAC filing, the government processing fee, your Certificate of Registration, a Tax Identification Number, and a CAC Status Report confirming you’re active on the public register.

Is a Business Name enough to run an aluminium fabrication business? Yes — for most independent fabricators and installers, a Business Name establishes your legal business name and is the main registration you need to start.

Should I register as a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company? A Business Name suits most independent fabricators and glass installers starting out. If you’re handling large commercial contracts or bringing on partners, the Limited Liability Company route is worth considering.

When should I upgrade to a Limited Liability Company? Usually once you’re supplying contractors or developers directly, scaling up production, or an investor specifically requires it.

Can I register aluminium fabrication and glass installation under one business name? Yes — a single registration covers your business as a whole. You can describe your nature of business broadly enough to include both.

I fabricate aluminium products from a small workshop — can I still register? Yes — small and large aluminium businesses register the same way. You just need a business address in Kaduna State, which can be your workshop or shop location.

Do I need SON approval for the aluminium or glass products I make or sell? It can apply depending on your products — Standards Organisation of Nigeria compliance is separate from CAC registration and worth checking as your operation grows.

Do I need import documentation for aluminium profiles or glass sourced abroad? Yes — importing raw materials or finished products requires separate customs documentation, which is not part of CAC registration.

Will this certificate help me open supplier or contractor accounts? Many material suppliers and contractors ask for proof of business registration before setting up a formal account, so a CAC certificate is often the first document that opens that door.

Can I open a business bank account with the certificate? Yes — a CAC certificate is one of the main documents banks ask for when opening a business account, alongside your ID and other details.

Do you register businesses outside Kaduna metropolis? Yes — we register aluminium and glass works businesses in all 23 Kaduna LGAs, at the same price and turnaround time.

What if my proposed business name isn’t available? Just send a backup name and we’ll check it right away. Having two or three ready in advance keeps things moving smoothly.

Can I convert my Business Name registration to a Limited Liability Company later? Yes — many aluminium and glass businesses start with a Business Name and convert once volumes or partnerships grow; we can assist with that conversion when the time comes.

Do I need environmental approval for scrap or waste from fabrication work? It can apply depending on the scale of your workshop — NESREA compliance for scrap metal and glass waste is separate from CAC registration and worth checking as you grow.

Is aluminium fabrication different from welding and metal works registration? They’re related but distinct — if your business also covers general welding or iron works beyond aluminium and glass, let us know so your nature of business reflects both accurately.
