CAC Business Name Registration for Poultry Farm in Katsina State

If you keep layers, broilers, goats, sheep, cattle or any other livestock in Katsina State, a CAC Business Name gives your farm an officially registered identity to buy, sell and invoice under. Onelove Business Ventures is a CAC-accredited agent, and we handle the full registration remotely, from the name search to the certificate, so you can keep your attention on your animals.

A State That Has Put Livestock at the Centre of Its Plans

Katsina’s government has been open about how much weight it places on livestock. The state’s Commissioner for Livestock Development, Prof. Ahmed Bakori, has said the government laid the foundation for a large poultry farm with capacity for about 300,000 layers, together with a hatchery unit, with the aim of reducing farmers’ dependence on other states for day-old chicks. Private money is also circling the sector: at the Katsina State Economic and Investment Summit, TORQ Agro Allied disclosed a ₦3.5 billion investment for a modern poultry farm with hatchery facilities. For ruminant keepers, the state’s 2026 Annual Mass Livestock Vaccination Exercise ran across all 361 wards in the 34 LGAs, covering cattle, sheep and goats against diseases such as CBPP, FMD and PPR. When money, hatcheries and disease-control campaigns all move at once, farms that are properly registered and easy to identify are the ones best placed to work with suppliers, buyers and partners.

This Might Be a Great Fit If…

We aren’t the right choice for everyone, and that’s perfectly fine. Here’s who tends to enjoy working with us:

• You’d rather be with your birds and animals than waiting on a registration portal.
• You’re thinking bigger than today’s pen: more birds, a hatchery, a feed business, or selling to larger buyers.
• You like straight talk: if a Business Name suits you now, we’ll say so and won’t push the larger option.
• You want the full price known upfront, with nothing added after payment.

If that sounds like you, we’ll probably get along well.

Just your business name on WhatsApp — everything after that is on us.

Business Name vs. Limited Liability Company

Most poultry and livestock operations in Katsina begin as a Business Name, and that is a sound place to start. The Limited Liability Company is worth weighing when ownership becomes shared, when you buy feed, chicks or stock in bulk on credit, or when you want your personal assets kept separate from the farm. You can start with a Business Name and convert later.

What You’ll Need

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 Katsina State, indicating the LGA
5. Phone number and email address
6. Nature of business, described simply, for example “poultry farming” or “livestock rearing and sales”
7. If you choose Limited Liability Company instead: names, ID and details of directors and shareholders

Nothing here needs advance preparation. Send what you have on WhatsApp when it suits you, and we’ll check it against CAC’s requirements.

How the Process Runs

1. Check name availability on CAC’s public search portal, which we handle on our side.
2. Reserve the name as soon as it’s confirmed available.
3. Complete the application with your business, owner and Katsina address details.
4. Upload your ID and passport photograph. A phone photo is enough.
5. Make one payment of ₦35,500, which covers everything.
6. Receive your Certificate of Registration, TIN and Status Report, usually within 5–7 working days.

Six steps, and only two of them involve you — everything else runs on our end.

What You’ll Need to Arrange Separately

• Printed copies of your certificate (delivered as a soft copy, which you can print locally)
• Veterinary and livestock-health requirements, including any approvals for animal movement, vaccination records or health certificates
• Registration requirements for veterinary drugs, feed and other regulated farm inputs, where they apply
• NAFDAC registration if you process or package eggs, meat or other animal products for sale
• Slaughter, abattoir and meat-inspection approvals if you process animals for sale
• Land, premises and planning approvals for your farm or pens
• Waste, manure and environmental-handling arrangements for your site
• Business bank account opening, done with your chosen bank once your certificate is ready
• Annual returns in future years, a small, separate step we can also help with when the time comes

Your Animals Already Know You; Now Your Buyers Can Too

Looking after livestock is daily, hands-on work: spotting a sick bird before the rest of the pen sees it, keeping feed costs under control, timing vaccinations and knowing which buyers pay on collection. That skill is yours and can’t be replaced by any certificate. What a certificate can do is let an egg wholesaler, a feed supplier or a bank deal with your farm under a formally recognised name instead of a handshake alone. It also gives you a clean, official footing from which to expand, whether that means another pen, a hatchery unit or a second line of livestock.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much does CAC registration cost for a poultry or livestock farm in Katsina State? ₦35,500 all-inclusive, the same across all 34 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.

Is a Business Name enough for a poultry farm? For most individual farmers and small poultry units, yes. A Business Name establishes your legal business name and is the main CAC registration you need to start.

Should I choose a Business Name or a Limited Liability Company, and can I upgrade later? A Business Name suits most farmers starting out. If you have partners or investors, or want personal liability protection for a hatchery or larger operation, the Limited Liability Company is worth weighing, and a Business Name can be converted later.

Can I register poultry, goats and feed sales under one business name? Yes. A single registration covers your business as a whole, so you can describe your nature of business broadly enough to include all of them.

I only keep a small number of birds. Can I still register? Yes. Small and large farms register the same way. You just need a business address in Katsina State, which can be your farm, home or shop address.

Does CAC registration replace veterinary or livestock approvals? No. CAC registration establishes your business name legally, while veterinary, animal-health, slaughter and premises requirements are handled separately with the relevant authorities.

Will the certificate help me sell to bigger buyers or open a bank account? Many wholesalers, hotels and bulk buyers prefer to deal with registered businesses, and a CAC certificate is one of the main documents banks ask for when opening a business account, along with your ID and other details.

What if my proposed business name isn’t available? Send a backup name and we’ll check it right away. Having two or three ready in advance keeps things moving smoothly.

Do you register farms outside Katsina city? Yes. We register poultry and livestock businesses in all 34 Katsina LGAs, at the same price and turnaround time.
