Furniture, Upholstery and Carpentry Businesses We Register Most in Enugu

• Furniture manufacturing and workshops — registered businesses making chairs, tables, beds and cabinets to order.
• Upholstery and soft furnishing — registered businesses upholstering sofas, chairs and other seating.
• Carpentry and joinery services — registered businesses handling doors, wardrobes, ceilings and fitted woodwork.
• Furniture retail and showrooms — registered businesses selling finished furniture to households and offices.
• Timber and wood supply — registered businesses supplying wood and materials to furniture makers and carpenters.

An Industrial Base Built Partly on Furniture and Wood

Enugu’s furniture and carpentry trade isn’t operating in isolation — it sits alongside a long-standing manufacturing base in the state. The Emene industrial estate on the edge of Enugu city, established decades ago, has long housed furniture and pottery factories alongside a sawmill, a railway workshop and a vehicle assembly plant, part of the wider cluster of industrial activity that also produces steel rods and cement products. For furniture makers, upholsterers and carpenters registering today, that history matters less than the fact it created: Enugu already has an established supply chain and skilled workforce for wood-based manufacturing, which independent workshops and retailers can plug into and build on.

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company Cost

The Full Breakdown of Your ₦35,500

We handle the full Business Name registration for furniture, upholstery and carpentry businesses in Enugu for ₦35,500 all-inclusive, covering the government filing fee and our service fee together — the option that fits most independent workshops and small furniture retailers starting out, giving you a properly registered business without the extra structure many don’t yet need (a Limited Liability Company registration is also available at ₦65,500 all-inclusive, worth considering once you’re supplying bulk or institutional orders, or bringing in business partners).

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

Want the Limited Liability Company instead? For ₦65,500 all-inclusive you get everything above plus your Memorandum and Articles of Association (Memart) and personal liability protection — worth it once you’re supplying at larger scale or with partners.

Separate From This Registration

• Physical/printed copies of your certificate (delivered as soft copy; you print locally whenever convenient)
• Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) compliance for imported furniture materials, fittings and finishes
• Nigeria Customs documentation for importing timber, fabric or hardware from abroad
• Fire safety compliance for workshops using flammable finishes and materials
• Occupational safety compliance for staff operating carpentry machinery
• Business bank account opening, done with your chosen bank once your certificate is in hand
• Annual returns filing in future years — a small, separate step we can also help with when the time comes

What to Have on Hand

You most likely already have these ready:

1. Two proposed business names, ranked by preference
2. A valid means of ID — National ID (NIN), international passport, or driver’s license
3. A passport photograph
4. Your business address in Enugu — indicating the LGA
5. Phone number and email address
6. Nature of business — described simply, e.g. “furniture manufacturing,” “upholstery services,” or “carpentry and joinery”
7. If you choose Limited Liability Company instead: names, ID and details of directors and shareholders

Nothing here needs advance preparation. Send it across on WhatsApp whenever convenient, and we’ll match it to CAC’s requirements.

3. Complete the application with your business, director and Enugu address details.

You Build What People Live With — Let a Registered Name Back the Business

Making furniture or carpentry work that lasts takes real skill, and clients placing bulk or custom orders want a business name they can trust and reach again. CAC registration is the comparatively simple part, and it’s worth getting settled early: it’s the document that lets you open supplier accounts and take on larger fit-out or institutional orders formally, under a properly recognised business name. That’s genuinely the whole process from your side: one message, one payment, one certificate.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does CAC registration cost for a furniture or carpentry business in Enugu? ₦35,500 all-inclusive, the same across all 17 LGAs. A Limited Liability Company registration is also available for ₦65,500 all-inclusive.

What do I actually get for the ₦35,500? Your name search and reservation, the completed CAC filing, the government processing fee, your Certificate of Registration, a Tax Identification Number, and a CAC Status Report confirming you’re active on the public register.

Should I register as a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company? A Business Name suits most independent furniture makers, upholsterers and carpenters starting out. If you’re supplying bulk or institutional orders, or bringing on partners, the Limited Liability Company route is worth considering.

Can I register furniture making, upholstery and carpentry 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 several, for example furniture manufacturing and carpentry services.

Will this certificate help me supply offices, hotels and institutions? Many organisations ask for proof of business registration before placing bulk furniture orders, so a CAC certificate is often the first document that opens that door.

Do I need SON compliance for imported materials? Yes — Standards Organisation of Nigeria compliance for imported furniture materials and fittings is separate from CAC registration.

Do you register businesses outside Enugu city? Yes — we register furniture and carpentry businesses in all 17 Enugu LGAs, at the same price and turnaround time.

From that point forward, it’s on us — you’ll next hear from us with your certificate ready.
