If you run a safety or CCTV installation business anywhere in Borno State — a CCTV and surveillance installation business, a fire safety equipment supply and installation business, a security alarm system installation business, an access control system installation business, a safety equipment and PPE supply business, or a security consulting 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 an installation job. All it takes is a short WhatsApp message with your preferred business name, and we take it from there.
Whether your business is in Abadam, Askira/Uba, Bama, Bayo, Biu, Chibok, Damboa, Dikwa, Gubio, Guzamala, Gwoza, Hawul, Jere, Kaga, Kala/Balge, Konduga, Kukawa, Kwaya Kusar, Mafa, Magumeri, Maiduguri, Marte, Mobbar, Monguno, Ngala, Nganzai, or Shani Local Government Area, the process and pricing are exactly the same. Borno’s ongoing focus on security keeps steady demand for CCTV, alarm, and safety installation services across all 27 LGAs. A CAC certificate simply puts your existing business on paper, the way it should be. We handle the full registration for safety and CCTV installation businesses in Borno 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 CCTV installers, alarm technicians, and safety equipment suppliers just starting out | Larger security installation firms, guard-supplying companies, or businesses seeking corporate and institutional contracts |
Most independent CCTV installers, alarm technicians, and safety equipment suppliers just starting out find the Business Name option is more than enough to get properly registered without any extra complexity. Businesses planning to combine installation with guard deployment, run a larger technical team, or bid for corporate and institutional security contracts often prefer the Limited Liability Company route for the added protection and structure.
A Good Safety or CCTV Installation Business Deserves a Registered Name Behind It
You already know your trade — the wiring, the setup, the testing, the day-to-day running of the business. 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 safety and CCTV professionals 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 facility manager, or an institution 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 safety or CCTV installation business in Borno? ₦35,500 all-inclusive for a Business Name, ₦65,500 for a Limited Liability Company — the same pricing across all 27 LGAs in Borno State.
Can I register a CCTV and surveillance installation business specifically? Yes — you’ll simply state your specific line of business, such as CCTV and surveillance installation services, and it will be reflected on your certificate and CAC’s public register.
