CAC Business Name Registration for Furniture and Carpentry Businesses in Benue State

If you run an upholstery, furniture, or carpentry business anywhere in Benue State — a furniture making and carpentry workshop, an upholstery and sofa-making business, a furniture sales and showroom business, a wood and timber supply business, an interior fittings and cabinetry business, a office and school furniture supply business, or a furniture repair and reupholstery 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 showroom. All it takes is a short WhatsApp message with your preferred business name, and we take it from there.

Whether your business is in Ado, Agatu, Apa, Buruku, Gboko, Guma, Gwer East, Gwer West, Katsina-Ala, Konshisha, Kwande, Logo, Makurdi, Obi, Ogbadibo, Ohimini, Oju, Okpokwu, Oturkpo, Tarka, Ukum, Ushongo, or Vandeikya Local Government Area, the process and pricing are exactly the same. Benue’s growing towns and steady demand for furniture, fittings, and household woodwork keep the upholstery, furniture, and carpentry trade thriving across all 23 LGAs. A CAC certificate simply puts your existing business on paper, the way it should be. We handle the full registration for upholstery, furniture, and carpentry businesses in Benue 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)
• SON (Standards Organisation of Nigeria) certification for manufactured furniture products, where applicable (handled separately, whenever you’re ready for it)
• Forestry/timber movement permits for wood and timber supply operations, where applicable (handled separately, whenever you’re ready for it)
• Local government workshop or trade permits where required for your premises (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 carpenters, solo upholsterers, and small workshop owners just starting out find the Business Name option is more than enough to get properly registered without any extra complexity. Businesses planning to supply offices and schools at scale, run a full showroom, or bid for institutional furniture contracts often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure.

A Good Upholstery, Furniture, or Carpentry Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It

You already know your work — the measuring, the cutting, the stitching, the day-to-day running of the workshop or showroom. 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 carpenters and furniture makers 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, a school, or an office manager asks, “are you registered?” — and lets you answer with a quiet yes.
