If you run a welding workshop, a metal fabrication shop, or an iron and scrap metal trading business in Anambra, 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 take a day off work. All it takes is a short WhatsApp message with your preferred business name, and we take it from there.
Anambra’s welders, fabricators, and scrap dealers across Awka, Onitsha, and Nnewi have built real skill and real businesses — a CAC certificate simply puts that on paper, the way it should be.

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.

A Skilled Tradesman Deserves a Registered Business Behind Him
You already know your trade — the welding, the fabrication, the sourcing and sorting of scrap. That expertise is the hard part, and you’ve handled it for years. Making it official with CAC is the easy part, and it’s the kind of small, sensible step that experienced tradesmen 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 bank, or a partner asks, “are you registered?” — and lets you answer with a quiet yes.

Frequently Asked Questions
How much does CAC business name registration cost for a welding, metal works, or iron scraps business in Anambra? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, ₦65,500 for a Limited Liability Company — the same national pricing whether you run a welding workshop, a fabrication shop, or a scrap metal trading business.
Can I register a scrap metal trading business specifically? Yes — you’ll simply state your specific line of business, such as iron and scrap metal trading or scrap metal export and bulk supply, and it will be reflected on your certificate and CAC’s public register.
Do I need an environmental or export permit in addition to CAC registration? Not for CAC registration itself — that just establishes your legal business name. Environmental/waste handling permits, export documentation, or state industrial permits are separate steps you can look into whenever they become relevant to your business, and we’re happy to point you in the right direction when that time comes.
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.

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.
