Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost
| Business Name | Limited Liability Company | |
|---|---|---|
| All-inclusive cost | ₦35,500 | ₦65,500 |
| Personal liability protection | No | Yes |
| Documents received | Certificate + Status Report + TIN | Certificate + Status Report + Memart + TIN |
| Best for | Individual fabricators, fitters and small glass shops | Workshops with partners, bigger contract work or larger supply arrangements |
Most aluminium and glass workers start with a Business Name, and it handles what a small workshop usually needs: a registered name on your quotes, invoices and signboard. If you later move into contract work for larger clients, or bring in a business partner, you can move up to a Limited Liability Company. Many businesses do.

How the Process Runs
- Check name availability on CAC’s public search portal. We handle this.
- Reserve the name as soon as it’s confirmed free.

From Bauxite in the Ground to Frames on the Shelf
Kebbi has been in the news for what lies under its soil. In early 2025, the state government announced five additional solid mineral discoveries, taking the number of identified deposits above 30. The new finds include bauxite in Suru and Dandi, kaolin across several LGAs and limestone in Jega, alongside quartz already on the state’s list. Bauxite is the ore aluminium is made from, and quartz is a form of silica, the main raw material in glass. It’s a good headline for anyone in this trade. But a deposit in the ground is a long way from aluminium profiles and sheet glass on a shop floor in Birnin Kebbi. Local fabricators today work with materials that are bought in and cut to size. If processing and manufacturing eventually grow around these minerals, the businesses that are already registered, with a certificate, a TIN and a status report, will be easier for suppliers and larger buyers to deal with. That’s worth settling now, while the work is steady.
This Might Be a Great Fit If…
We aren’t the right choice for everybody, so here’s who tends to be happiest with us:
- Your hands are on the work all day and you’d like someone else to deal with CAC’s portal.
- You quote jobs to homeowners, shops and offices and want a registered name and certificate behind your quotations.
- You prefer a straight answer. If a Business Name is all your workshop needs, we’ll say so rather than push you to the larger package.
- You want a fixed price with no extra charges turning up after you’ve started.
If that sounds like you, we’ll probably work well together.

- Birnin Kebbi, Kalgo, Gwandu and Aleiro — the capital area, where construction, renovation and shop-fitting work concentrate
- Jega, Argungu, Augie, Bunza, Maiyama and Koko/Besse — growing towns with steady demand for doors, windows and shop fronts
- Suru, Dandi, Arewa Dandi and Bagudo — the northwestern LGAs, including the two named in the state’s bauxite announcement

If your workshop or shop is in any of Kebbi’s 21 Local Government Areas, you’re covered.
You Already Know the Cut, the Fit and the Finish
Good aluminium and glass work is measured to the millimetre. You know how a frame has to sit square, why a pane cut a little short ruins a job, and which sealant still holds up in the Kebbi heat. None of that comes from a form, and registering your business doesn’t change it. What registration does is let a client, a supplier or a bank deal with your workshop as an established business instead of just a name on a signboard. It’s the easy part of the trade, and it’s worth settling before a bigger job asks you for the certificate.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CAC registration cost for an aluminium or glass works business in Kebbi State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, the same across all 21 LGAs. A Limited Liability Company is ₦65,500 all-inclusive.
What does the ₦35,500 include? The name search and reservation, the completed CAC filing, the government filing 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 for an aluminium or glass workshop? For most individual fabricators, glass cutters and fitters, yes. It gives you a registered legal name, which is what most clients and suppliers ask for first.
Should I register a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company? A Business Name suits most workshops starting out. A Limited Liability Company is worth considering if you have partners, take on large contracts or want personal liability protection.
When should I move up to a Limited Liability Company? Usually when you’re bidding for bigger projects, working with partners, or a client asks for a company on the other side of the contract.
Can I register fabrication and glass supply under one name? Yes. You describe your nature of business broadly, for example aluminium and glass fabrication, supply and installation, and one registration covers the business as a whole.
I work from a small roadside workshop. Can I still register? Yes. Small and large workshops register the same way. You only need a business address in Kebbi State, which can be your workshop, shop or storage space.
Does CAC registration cover SON or other product standards? No. Standards for profiles, glass and fittings are separate from CAC registration.
If I import profiles or sheet glass, does this cover customs? No. Import clearance and customs documentation are separate, and are handled with the relevant agencies.
Do I need workshop or premises approval? Possibly, depending on where you operate. Local approvals from the Kebbi State and local government authorities are separate from CAC.
Will the certificate help with contracts and supplier accounts? Many clients, contractors and suppliers ask for proof of registration before awarding work or offering credit terms, so the 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, alongside your ID and other details.
Do you register workshops outside Birnin Kebbi? Yes. We register businesses in all 21 Kebbi LGAs at the same price and turnaround time.
