If you run a fashion design or tailoring business anywhere in Delta State — a fashion design studio, a tailoring and dressmaking shop, a bridal and aso ebi outfit business, an embroidery and beading business, a school and corporate uniform maker, a ready-to-wear clothing brand, or a fabric and textile store — 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 machines, your studio or your clients. All it takes is a short WhatsApp message with your preferred business name, and we take it from there.
Whether your business is in Aniocha North, Aniocha South, Bomadi, Burutu, Ethiope East, Ethiope West, Ika North East, Ika South, Isoko North, Isoko South, Ndokwa East, Ndokwa West, Okpe, Oshimili North, Oshimili South, Patani, Sapele, Udu, Ughelli North, Ughelli South, Ukwuani, Uvwie, Warri North, Warri South, or Warri South West Local Government Area, the process and pricing are exactly the same.

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 tailors, fashion designers, seamstresses and small fashion brands just starting out | Larger fashion houses, uniform and bulk production businesses, fabric importers, or brands seeking retail partnerships, corporate contracts or investors |
Most independent tailors, fashion designers and small fashion brand owners 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 large fashion house, produce uniforms and garments in bulk, import fabrics, or bring in investors, retail partners and corporate clients often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure, especially since bulk orders, deposits and delivery deadlines raise the stakes. A CAC certificate is one part of running a fashion design or tailoring business — trademark protection for your brand, import documentation, insurance and premises permits are separate steps we’re happy to point you toward once your business name is in place.
A Good Fashion Design or Tailoring Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It
You already know your craft — the fit that makes a client stand taller, the design that turns heads at a wedding, the order delivered on time when the event is only days away. 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 designers and tailors 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. Clients, event planners, schools, companies and banks often ask, “are you registered?” — and this lets you answer with a quiet yes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CAC business name registration cost for a fashion design or tailoring business in Delta? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, ₦65,500 for a Limited Liability Company — the same pricing across all 25 LGAs in Delta State.
Is CAC registration enough to start a tailoring or fashion design business? CAC registration establishes your legal business name, and for designing, sewing and selling clothes it’s usually the main registration you need. Shops and studios may also have local government and premises permits, where applicable. These are separate from CAC registration, and we’re happy to point you in the right direction once your CAC registration is done.
Does CAC registration protect my fashion brand name and logo? CAC registration establishes your legal business name on the public register, but it isn’t the same as trademark registration. If you’re building a fashion label and want to protect your brand name, logo and label, trademark registration is a separate step, where applicable, and worth considering once your business is registered.
I want to run a fashion school or train apprentices. Is CAC registration enough? CAC registration is the starting point. Businesses offering formal training and certification may also need approvals for training programmes, where applicable. These are separate from CAC registration, and it’s worth confirming with the relevant authorities what applies to the kind of training you offer.
I want to supply uniforms to schools, churches and companies. Is CAC registration enough? CAC registration is the starting point, since schools, corporate offices and institutions generally deal with registered businesses. Some institutions also have their own vendor registration and approval processes, where applicable. These are separate from CAC registration.
I import fabrics, lace or sewing materials. Is CAC registration enough? CAC registration is the starting point, since importers generally need a registered business to work with. Importing also involves further registrations and customs documentation, where applicable. These are separate from CAC registration.
Should I register as a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company? A Business Name is enough for many tailors, fashion designers and fabric sellers just starting out. If you plan to run a large fashion house, produce in bulk, import fabrics, or work with investors, retail partners, schools, companies or government agencies, the Limited Liability Company route is often preferred for the added protection and structure. Some clients set their own requirements, so it helps to know what your target clients expect.
Can I register a tailoring business and a fabric store 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, for example fashion design, tailoring and sale of fabrics.
I work from home or a small shop. Can I still register? Yes — home-based designers, seamstresses and small shop owners register the same way. You’ll just need a business address in Delta State, which can be your shop, your studio or the address you operate from.
I sell my designs online through Instagram and WhatsApp. Can I still register? Yes — online fashion sellers register the same way. You’ll just need a business address in Delta State, which can be your studio, your home or the address you operate from.
Will I be able to open a business bank account with the certificate? A CAC certificate is one of the main documents banks ask for when opening a business account, alongside your ID and other details. Each bank sets its own requirements, so it’s worth confirming with your chosen bank. A business account also makes it easier to receive client deposits, order payments and pay suppliers.
Can a registered business get better terms from suppliers and clients? Many fabric suppliers, wholesalers, event planners and corporate clients prefer to deal with registered businesses, especially for larger orders, credit arrangements or bulk supply, though terms vary from partner to partner. A CAC certificate gives you something to show when they ask.
Do you register businesses outside Asaba and Warri? Yes — we register fashion design and tailoring businesses in all 25 Delta LGAs, at the same price and turnaround time.
How long does registration take? Typically 5–7 working days, and there’s nothing further required from you once you’ve sent your details.
What if my proposed business name isn’t available? No trouble at all — just send a backup name and we’ll check it right away. Having two or three ready in advance keeps things moving smoothly.
Do I need an accredited agent to register? It certainly makes things easier — we handle every detail so you don’t have to learn CAC’s process yourself. We’re a CAC-accredited agent, and we take care of your entire registration from name search through certificate delivery, so all you do is send a message and wait for good news.
