If you run a welding, metal works, or iron scraps business anywhere in Benue State — a welding and fabrication workshop, a metal gate and burglary-proof works business, an aluminum and window works business, a scrap metal buying and recycling business, an iron rod and metal materials supply business, a blacksmithing and tools-making business, or a mechanical and structural steel works 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 yard. 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 constant demand for building materials, fabrication work, and scrap trading keep the welding and metal works 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 welding, metal works, and iron scraps 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.

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 welders, roadside fabricators, and small scrap dealers | Larger fabrication companies, metal supply firms, or businesses seeking contracts or investment |
Most independent welders, roadside fabricators, and small scrap dealers just starting out find the Business Name option is more than enough to get properly registered without any extra complexity. Businesses planning to supply materials at scale, bid for construction or government contracts, or run a full workshop with staff often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure.
A Good Welding or Metal Works Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It
You already know your work — the fabrication, the welding, the cutting and bending, the day-to-day running of the workshop or the yard. 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 fabricators and metal traders 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 contractor, or a supplier asks, “are you registered?” — and lets you answer with a quiet yes.
