CAC Business Name Registration for Fashion Design and Tailoring Businesses in Borno State

If you run a fashion design or tailoring business anywhere in Borno State — a tailoring and fashion design business, a bespoke and custom-made clothing business, a native wear and traditional attire business, a uniform and corporate wear business, an embroidery and design business, a fashion accessories and bag-making business, or an aso-ebi and event wear 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 sewing machine or shop. 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 rich culture, weddings, festivals, and everyday clothing needs keep the fashion design and tailoring trade thriving 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 fashion design and tailoring 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.

What’s Included in the ₦35,500

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

What’s Not Usually Included

• Physical/printed copies of your certificate (delivered as soft copy; you print locally whenever convenient)
• Tax Identification Number (TIN) registration for Business Names (included automatically for Limited Liability Companies at ₦65,500)
• Fashion or trade association membership registration, where applicable (handled separately, whenever you’re ready for it)
• Trademark registration for your fashion label or brand name, where applicable (handled separately, whenever you’re ready for it)
• Import documentation for businesses importing fabrics, embellishments, or sewing equipment, where applicable (a separate step we can also help with)
• Annual returns filing in future years — a small, separate step we can also help with when the time comes

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost

Most independent tailors and solo fashion designers just starting out find the Business Name option is more than enough to get properly registered without any extra complexity. Businesses planning to build a fashion label, run a larger workshop with staff, or bid for corporate and school uniform contracts often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure.

A Good Fashion Design or Tailoring Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It

You already know your work — the measuring, the cutting, the sewing, the day-to-day running of the shop or workshop. 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 tailors and fashion designers 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 client, an event planner, or a corporate buyer asks, “are you registered?” — and lets you answer with a quiet yes.
