If you run an automobile mechanic or towing business anywhere in Borno State — a vehicle repair and mechanic workshop, an auto electrical and diagnostics business, a towing and vehicle recovery business, a spare parts sales business, a car wash and detailing business, a tyre and vulcanizing business, or a motorcycle and tricycle repair business — registering it with CAC is one of the easiest things you’ll do all year. We at Onelove Business Ventures are an accredited agent, and we handle the entire process for you — search, filing, certificate — from wherever you are. You don’t need to visit an office, stand in a queue, or step away from your workshop or garage. All it takes is a short WhatsApp message with your preferred business name, and we take it from there.
Whether your business is in Abadam, Askira/Uba, Bama, Bayo, Biu, Chibok, Damboa, Dikwa, Gubio, Guzamala, Gwoza, Hawul, Jere, Kaga, Kala/Balge, Konduga, Kukawa, Kwaya Kusar, Mafa, Magumeri, Maiduguri, Marte, Mobbar, Monguno, Ngala, Nganzai, or Shani Local Government Area, the process and pricing are exactly the same. Borno’s busy roads and constant vehicle traffic keep the automobile mechanic and towing trade in demand across all 27 LGAs. A CAC certificate simply puts your existing business on paper, the way it should be. We handle the full registration for automobile mechanic and towing businesses in Borno State for ₦35,500 all-inclusive, covering the government filing fee and our service fee together (a Limited Liability Company registration is ₦65,500 all-inclusive). The whole process runs online, and most clients have their certificate in about a week — with almost nothing required of you beyond that first message.
It really is this simple: send us your business name on WhatsApp, and we’ll handle everything else.

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 | Certificate + Status Report + Memart + TIN |
| Best for | Independent mechanics, small workshop owners, and solo tow operators just starting out | Larger garages, fleet service providers, or businesses seeking contracts or investment |
Most independent mechanics, workshop owners, and solo tow operators just starting out find the Business Name option is more than enough to get properly registered without any extra complexity. Businesses planning to run a full-service garage, manage a fleet of tow trucks, or bid for corporate and government vehicle-service contracts often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure.
A Good Automobile Mechanic or Towing Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It
You already know your work — the diagnostics, the repairs, the roadside recoveries, the day-to-day running of the workshop or truck. That’s the hard part, and you’ve handled it well. Making it official with CAC is the easy part, and it’s the kind of small, sensible step that experienced mechanics and tow operators take in their stride — not because they’re worried about losing out, but because it’s simply the right box to tick once a business is real. It gives you something to point to when a customer, an insurance company, or a fleet manager asks, “are you registered?” — and lets you answer with a quiet yes.
