1. Executive Summary
EcoHarvest Mushrooms Nigeria Ltd. is a commercial mushroom
cultivation and processing enterprise located in Abeokuta, Ogun State. The
business aims to leverage the increasing demand for healthy, protein-rich,
organic food options by supplying fresh and dried mushrooms to restaurants,
supermarkets, health food stores, and export partners.
The business will focus on growing oyster and button mushrooms using
organic and sustainable farming techniques in a controlled indoor environment.
With increasing interest in vegetarian diets, wellness lifestyles, and
functional foods, mushroom farming presents a viable and profitable venture in
Nigeria’s evolving agri-sector.
The business will require a startup capital of ₦13.5 million to
cover infrastructure setup, equipment purchase, substrate preparation,
environmental control systems, staff salaries, and working capital. First-year
revenue is projected at ₦18 million, with an estimated net profit of ₦7.5
million and a gross margin of over 50%.
The core objectives of EcoHarvest Mushrooms are:
- To
produce 1.5 to 2 tons of mushrooms monthly within the first year.
- To
promote healthy food alternatives in Nigeria.
- To
penetrate urban and semi-urban markets in Lagos, Ibadan, and Ogun State.
- To
export dried mushrooms to international buyers by Year 2.
- To
scale to a model training and processing center within five years.
2. Business Overview
2.1 Business Description
EcoHarvest Mushrooms is a specialized agricultural venture focused on
the cultivation of edible mushrooms, especially oyster and button varieties.
These mushrooms are grown in climate-controlled environments using
sawdust-based substrates, agricultural waste, and simple greenhouse structures,
reducing environmental impact and production costs.
The farm will operate a semi-automated mushroom production model using
high-yield, fast-growing strains, ensuring consistent supply and meeting
quality standards for consumption and export.
2.2 Industry Background
The Nigerian mushroom industry is still underdeveloped despite huge
market potential. Edible mushrooms are valued for their medicinal properties,
high nutritional content, and meat-alternative quality. Nigeria imports a
substantial volume of dried mushrooms and mushroom-based supplements annually,
indicating a gap in local supply.
With urban populations increasing and growing health consciousness among
consumers, the domestic market is poised for expansion. Ogun State, with its
proximity to Lagos and favorable weather conditions, presents a prime location
for commercial mushroom production.
2.3 Vision Statement
To become the leading producer of organic mushrooms in Nigeria, known
for quality, innovation, and sustainability.
2.4 Mission Statement
To grow and supply premium-quality mushrooms that promote health, contribute
to food security, and support sustainable farming practices in Nigeria and
beyond.
2.5 Objectives
- Cultivate
at least 24 tons of mushrooms in the first 12 months.
- Establish
strong market presence in major cities by Year 2.
- Build
partnerships with supermarkets, hotels, and export agents.
- Train
100 youths and women on mushroom farming by Year 3.
