Styrofoam, Single-Use Plastics and Oyo State’s 2024 Ban

The plastics trade in Oyo State has a recent rule to keep in mind. On 11 March 2024, the state government announced a ban on the use of styrofoam for food service, storage and related purposes. The announcement was made by the Commissioner for Health at a food safety stakeholders’ forum in Agodi, Ibadan, where a food safety compliance enforcement task force was also inaugurated. News reports at the time described the ban as covering styrofoam and other single-use plastics, while the News Agency of Nigeria reported it as a ban on styrofoam for food packaging, storage and other uses. It followed a call by the Oyo State House of Assembly, and Lagos had announced a similar ban earlier that year.

If you manufacture, import or sell disposable food containers, the practical step is to confirm with the relevant state authorities exactly which products are covered before you stock or produce them. NAN also found styrofoam still on open sale in Ibadan markets some weeks later, which suggests awareness was uneven, so enforcement may well tighten. A registered business name will not change what you are allowed to make or sell. It does give regulators, buyers and banks a clear record of who is trading, and it is the starting point for the product and environmental approvals your type of plastics business may need.

Separate From This Registration

Plastics businesses answer to several authorities beyond CAC. These are dealt with on their own:

• Printed copies of your certificate, which we deliver as a soft copy for you to print locally
• Product standards from the Standards Organisation of Nigeria (SON) for items such as pipes, tanks and moulded goods
• NAFDAC requirements for packaging that touches food or drink, such as containers, bottles and sachet film
• Compliance with the Oyo State food safety rules, including the 2024 styrofoam ban, overseen through the state Ministry of Health’s food and laboratory services
• Environmental requirements from the National Environmental Standards and Regulations Enforcement Agency (NESREA) and from the Oyo State Ministry of Environment and Natural Resources
• Waste handling arrangements with the Oyo State Solid Waste Management Authority, which also applies to production scrap and rejects
• Planning and building approvals for a factory, warehouse or recycling yard
• Customs duties and import documentation if you bring in resin, machinery or finished goods
• Machinery safety, fire precautions and any insurance on your equipment and stock
• State and federal tax obligations, plus any local government levies on your premises
• Opening a business bank account, done with your bank once the certificate is in hand
• Annual returns in later years, a small separate step we can help with when it falls due

The Full Breakdown of Your ₦35,500

You pay once. CAC’s filing fee and our service fee both sit inside the ₦35,500, so nothing gets added afterwards. If you would rather start as a company, a Limited Liability Company is ₦65,500, also all-inclusive.

• A search to confirm your chosen business name is available
• Reservation of that name
• Preparation and submission of your CAC Business Name application
• CAC’s government filing and processing fee
• Your Certificate of Registration, as a soft copy
• A Tax Identification Number (TIN)
• A CAC Status Report showing the business as active on the public register

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company

A Business Name is generally enough while you are a one-owner operation, selling to market traders, retailers and neighbours, or collecting and supplying scrap. It gives you a name for invoices, supplier accounts and a bank account. A company structure becomes the better fit once you invest in machinery with other people, bring in investors, or begin supplying distributors and factories in volume. Many plastics businesses begin as a Business Name and convert as they grow.

Resin, Rollers and Rush Orders

Your day starts with the machine. Resin has to arrive, the generator needs diesel, a mould has to be swapped for the next order, and a truck is waiting to load buckets or nylon rolls. If you work on the collecting side, you are sorting sacks of bottles and haggling over weight before a recycler’s van turns up. Credit to market traders, a late delivery and a shortfall in raw material can all land in the same week. Registering the business is a task you can hand over completely. When a distributor, supplier or bank asks for proof that your business exists, the certificate is already in your WhatsApp.

A Good Match If…

Before you decide, here’s an honest look at who gets the most from our service:

• You’re loading a truck of buckets or nylon rolls, or waiting on a resin delivery while the machine sits idle, and chasing CAC online is the last thing the day allows.
• You’re moving from selling to market traders and neighbours towards supplying distributors, factories and bulk buyers, or from collecting scrap towards recycling it into flakes and pellets.
• You want a recommendation that fits your size — not the biggest package by default.
• You want things kept simple — your details, one payment, your certificate.

If that sounds like you, send your business name and we’ll get started.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does CAC registration cost for a plastic or polythene business in Oyo State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, wherever in Oyo State you operate. A Limited Liability Company is ₦65,500, also all-inclusive.

What do I get for the ₦35,500? The name search and reservation, the filing of your application, CAC’s government fee, a soft-copy Certificate of Registration, a TIN and a CAC Status Report.

How long does it take? Usually 5–7 working days once your details and payment are in.

Is a Business Name enough for a plastics business? For most one-owner workshops, distributors and scrap collectors, yes. Factories with expensive machinery, partners or investors may prefer a Limited Liability Company.

Does CAC registration give me a manufacturing licence or product approval? No. It registers your business name. SON, NAFDAC, environmental and premises approvals are separate and depend on what you make or sell.

Can polythene bags, moulded goods and recycled plastic all go under one name? Yes. Describe your business broadly, such as “plastic and polythene products, recycling and distribution”, and one registration covers the business as a whole.

I collect scrap plastic. Can I register? Yes. Collectors, aggregators and recyclers can register as businesses in the same way as producers and sellers.

I make sachet film, bottles or food containers. What else do I need? Packaging that touches food or drink generally involves NAFDAC and SON requirements, and the Oyo State food safety rules apply to some products. These are handled outside CAC registration, so check them for your product.

Does the 2024 styrofoam ban affect me? If you make, import or sell disposable food containers, it may. Confirm with the relevant Oyo State authorities which products are covered. CAC registration neither adds to nor removes any restriction.

I don’t have a factory yet. What address do I use? You need a business address in Oyo State, with the LGA. Use the workshop, shop, yard or office you operate from, or the place you plan to use, and send it with your names.

Do you register businesses outside Ibadan? Yes. We register plastics businesses across Oyo State, from Oyo town, Ogbomoso and Saki to Iseyin and Ibarapa, at the same price and turnaround.

Will the certificate help me supply distributors and larger buyers? Distributors, factories and institutions often ask for proof of registration before they order in bulk or on credit. A certificate is a useful document to hold, but it does not guarantee any order.

Does registration help if I import resin or machines? You will still deal with Customs, SON and other import requirements separately. A registered business name gives you the identity those processes expect, but it does not replace their paperwork.

Can I open a business bank account with the certificate? Yes. It is one of the main documents banks request, together with your ID and other details.

Is the TIN included? Yes. A Tax Identification Number is part of what you receive for the ₦35,500.

What if my first-choice name is taken? Send another and we will check it straight away. Having two or three options ready keeps things moving.

How do I receive my certificate? As a soft copy on WhatsApp. Print it locally whenever you need a hard copy.

When does a Limited Liability Company make sense for a plastics business? If you are setting up a factory with partners, an investor expects a company structure, or you plan to supply large buyers in volume, a company may be worth considering from day one.

Can I upgrade from a Business Name to a Limited Liability Company later? Yes. Many plastics businesses begin with a Business Name and convert as they scale. We can assist with the conversion.

Do I need to file anything with CAC after registration? Registered businesses file annual returns each year. It is a small, separate step, and we can handle it for you when it falls due.
