Aluminium and glass work is a trade where a signboard only carries you so far. Contractors, estate developers and banks often want to see paperwork before they deal with you, and putting your business under a registered name is the first formal piece of it. If you fabricate windows and doors, cut and fit glass, or supply aluminium profiles anywhere in Oyo State, Onelove Business Ventures can take the CAC registration off your hands. We are an accredited CAC agent, and we run the name search, the filing and the certificate whether your workshop is in Ibadan, Ogbomosho, Oyo town, Saki or Iseyin. Message us your business name on WhatsApp, and the checking, filing and chasing of that certificate become our job, not yours.

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company
| 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 | Owner-run fabrication shops, glass fitters and profile dealers | Contractors bidding for larger projects, or workshops with partners or investors |
A Business Name fits most owner-run workshops: you need a legal name for your invoices, your quotations and a bank account, and you want it done without fuss. The company route starts to make sense when you take on bigger glazing contracts, share ownership with a partner, or bring in outside money, since a company stands apart from your personal assets. Many fabricators begin with a Business Name and move up when the work calls for it.
Before You Reach Out
- Two business names you’d like, in order of preference
- A valid ID: NIN, international passport or driver’s license
- One passport photograph
- Your business address in Oyo State, with the LGA it falls under
- A phone number and email address
- What the business does, in plain words, for example “aluminium windows, doors and glass works”
- If you’re going the Limited Liability Company route: the names, IDs and details of the directors and shareholders
From Message to Certificate
- Name check: we search CAC’s public portal for availability.
- Reservation: once a name clears, we reserve it.
- Application: we complete the form with your business, owner and Oyo State address details.
- ID and photo upload: a clear phone picture works.
- Payment: you pay the ₦35,500 once, covering everything listed above.
- Delivery: your Certificate of Registration, TIN and Status Report arrive, usually within 5–7 working days.
Your part is the details you send and the one payment you make; the rest of the work stays on our side.
Why Oyo State’s Planning Rules Matter to Glass and Aluminium Trades
Windows, doors, partitions and curtain walls are fitted into buildings, so aluminium and glass contractors work close to the state’s planning rules. Oyo State enforces building approvals under its Physical Planning and Urban Development Law of 2012, and state officials have publicly stated that approvals are meant to come from the state’s planning authority and its zonal offices, not from other sources. The state has also announced plans for a digital system for building and survey plan approvals, so the exact procedure is worth confirming with the Ministry of Lands, Housing and Urban Development before you apply for anything.
The building plan itself is normally the property owner’s or developer’s responsibility, not the fabricator’s. Still, if you are building or altering your own workshop or showroom, that approval may apply to you too, and a registered business name is the usual starting point for any application made in the business’s name. Contractors and developers on larger sites also often ask who they are dealing with before they award work, and a CAC certificate answers that question. It does not secure the contract, and it does not replace any planning approval. It simply gives your business a legal name to apply and quote under.
Registering Aluminium and Glass Businesses Across Oyo State
The cost, requirements and turnaround stay the same wherever your workshop or shop sits. Here is how the state’s council areas and towns break down.
Ibadan and the metropolitan council areas. We register fabricators and glass dealers in Ibadan North, Ibadan North-East, Ibadan North-West, Ibadan South-East and Ibadan South-West, as well as across the surrounding council areas of Akinyele, Egbeda, Ido, Lagelu and Oluyole.
Oyo town and its neighbours. Workshops in Oyo East, Oyo West, Atiba and Afijio are covered, along with Fiditi.
Ogbomosho and the central towns. We handle registration in Ogbomosho North, Ogbomosho South, Ogo Oluwa, Surulere and Ori Ire.
The Ibarapa towns. Ibarapa Central, Ibarapa East and Ibarapa North are covered, together with Igbo-Ora and Orita-Eruwa.
Oke-Ogun. From Saki East and Saki West to Iseyin, Igboho, Kisi, Igbeti and Okeho, and across Itesiwaju, Iwajowa, Kajola, Atisbo, Irepo, Olorunsogo and Orelope, an aluminium or glass business there can register on the same terms.
Other towns across the state. Ago-Are, Alapa and Lalupon are covered too.
If your business is anywhere in Oyo State, you’re covered.
Measure Twice, Cut Once; Registration Shouldn’t Need Either
You know how a job goes: a customer wants a quote by Friday, a delivery of aluminium sections arrives half a day late, a sheet of glass has to be cut to a tolerance of a few millimetres, and the sliding track on the last installation still needs adjusting. The registration should not be one more thing competing for the same hour. Hand it to us, and your workshop gets a recognised business name that can go on quotations, delivery notes, invoices and bank paperwork, while you stay at the saw and the site.
Is This Right for Your Business?
Different business owners want different things from an agent — this is who we serve best:
- You’re on a site in the middle of a measurement, or waiting on a glass delivery, and CAC’s portal is the last thing you want open on your phone — you want the registration done while the work carries on.
- You’re aiming past one-off house windows — toward regular supply to contractors, estate developers, shopfront jobs or curtain wall packages, and you want a registered name to bid and invoice under.
- You prefer being told what you actually need — if the Business Name does the job today, we’ll leave the company route for when it’s worth it.
- You’d rather not chase anyone — one message starts it, and the price you’re quoted is the price you pay.
If this describes you, we’d be glad to take the paperwork off your hands.
Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CAC registration cost for an aluminium and glass works business in Oyo State? A Business Name is ₦35,500, all-inclusive, and the figure is the same in every part of the state. A Limited Liability Company is ₦65,500, also all-inclusive.
What do I receive for the ₦35,500? The name search and reservation, the completed CAC filing, CAC’s government fee, your Certificate of Registration as a soft copy, a TIN and a CAC Status Report.
Is a Business Name enough for a fabrication workshop or glass shop? For most owner-run workshops, yes. It gives you a registered legal name to trade, quote and invoice under. Other approvals, such as planning approval for premises, are separate.
Can I register aluminium, glass and roofing work under a single name? Yes. Describe the nature of the business broadly, for example windows, doors, glass fitting and roofing, and one registration covers the business as a whole.
Is the TIN included? Yes. The Tax Identification Number comes with the ₦35,500.
How long does registration take? Usually 5–7 working days from the point your details and payment are in.
My workshop is outside Ibadan. Can you still register me? Yes. We register businesses in all the council areas and towns of Oyo State, from Ogbomosho and Oyo to Saki, Iseyin and Igbo-Ora, at the same price and turnaround.
Do I need planning approval for my workshop or showroom? It may apply if you are putting up or altering a structure. In Oyo State that falls under the state’s physical planning rules, and it is handled separately from CAC. Check the current process with the state’s planning authorities.
Does CAC registration cover product-standard requirements for the materials I use? No. Standards for aluminium profiles, glass and fittings, such as those of the Standards Organisation of Nigeria, are a different matter from registering a business name. Check what applies to what you make or import.
Will contractors and developers accept my certificate? Many ask for proof that a business is registered before awarding work, so it is a useful document to hold. It does not guarantee any contract.
What if I operate from a rented shed or a stall at the moment? You need a business address in Oyo State and its LGA for the application. If you are still arranging a place, send the address you plan to use.
What if my first-choice business name isn’t available? Send a backup and we’ll check it straight away. Having two or three ready keeps things moving.
Can I register more than one branch under a single name? One registration covers your business as a whole. Any premises-level approvals are separate, so confirm them for each location you run.
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 I need to file anything with CAC in later years? Registered businesses have annual returns to file. It is a small, separate step, and we can help when the time comes.
Can I move from a Business Name to a Limited Liability Company later? Yes. Plenty of fabricators start with a Business Name and convert as their jobs and team grow. We can help with the conversion.
When does it make sense to start with a Limited Liability Company? If you are chasing larger glazing or curtain wall contracts, sharing ownership with partners, or an investor requires a company structure, the Limited Liability Company route is worth considering from the start.
How will I receive my certificate, and do I need to print it? We send a soft copy via WhatsApp. If you want a physical copy, print it at any local business centre.
