Ceramic Tiles Production Business Plan In Nigeria: The ceramic industry in Nigeria have been classified into the glass sector, Lime /Cement/ Gypsum sector, white wares and porcelain enamels and refractory and structural clay product sector.
However, as expected, the largest and the most successful is the glass sector. For over 30 years now, Nigeria has had glass factories for and there are at least eight of them which are situated in six states and producing mainly containers for beverages, cosmetics and pharmaceuticals as well as louvre blades and hurricane lantern globes.
Among the earliest and major ceramic tiles production set ups in, are the Lime, cement, and white wares (pottery) and they were also initially owned by government. Among these aforementioned three, cement was the first and is currently is still the only one that exists as a Large Scale Enterprise (LSE) Nigeria’s first cement plant, was the Nigerian Cement Company (NIGERCEM).
While Ceramic tiles fall under the structural clay product sector. In West Africa, Nigeria is largest manufacturer of ceramic tiles.
Ceramic Tiles form a very important and integral part of consuming sector like housing, educational /research institutions, hospitals, Industries, hotels, restaurants, cinema halls and other public places. We have also observed that the demands of ceramic tiles have very much increased because of the need of renovation works of the old above similar buildings and new buildings

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Ceramic tiles business plan is into investing in the Tiles and Marbles Industry in Nigeria. However, the proposed location of the ceramic and marbles tiles business can be situated anywhere in Nigeria but must have an easy access to the market both for the raw material and finished product.
Currently, one of the best investment vehicle in the world is housing development because it owns so much to a number of factors which includes the fact that shelter {housing} is one of the basic need of man, fixed supply of land and the ever increasing value of properties over time.
Currently, Nigeria has an estimated population of over two hundred million persons{200,000,000} growing at a rate of 3.5% per annum has a short fall in the supply of housing units that has been estimated to be between 16 – 17 million.
Nigerian economic growth rate has been around 5.7% per annum in the last five {5}years which means that Nigeria has witnessed a tremendous level of growth in the number of middle class families with the associated need to have a home of their own, thereby further deepening the building and construction market in Nigeria.
According to recent survey, over 60% of the entire population in Nigeria, lives on rented accommodation. This goes to show another latent market in the housing industry in Nigeria.
According to statistics, the global ceramics market is projected to hit $608 billion by 2023. However, what we have seen is that Nigeria isn’t making any effort to tap into this wealth of resources. Instead of tapping into this lucrative market, Nigeria is still importing over $600 million worth of ceramics products on a yearly basis.
The increasing need to build new residential houses, factories and offices to accommodate Nigeria’s large population has made production of marbles and tiles a very lucrative business in the country.
Also, according to market demand for quality tiles as obtainable in European countries such as Spain and Italy, we have seen a constant rising on an alarming rate owing to the trends in the home, property, and real estate industry in Nigeria. The Proposed ceramic tiles production company would produce Tiles in conformity to the European standards.
Industry drivers
West African Ceramics Ltd. (WACL) which is located in Ogun state in Nigeria, as at now, is the largest Ceramic Tiles manufacturing Company In Nigeria and recently with its announced plans to invest over $50 million in the establishment of a state-of-art ceramic tile factory to improve productivity and capacity that then we may just be seeing the largest ceramic and marble tiles company in Africa.
Production plan
The production plant is expected to operate for 8 hours in a day and 300 days per annum. The plant is expected to produce 192 sq. meters of tiles in a day {working for 4 hours} and 192 sq. meters of marbles in a day {working for 4 hours}.
Becoming the leading tiles and marble producer within the Southern Nigeria through the production of the finest quality product in the market, is the Vision of the Company.
The total manpower which Will be needed to start a ceramic tiles production company is about sixteen {16} persons and the Raw materials that are required for production would be locally sourced which includes, sand, water, cement, pigment and plasticizers.
Strategic Objectives
In other for us to meet all our target projections, We have created strategic objectives which are emboldened to:.
To achieve a 100% high quality product that will meet statutory and regulatory specification.
To achieve minimum customer satisfaction which stands at a rate of 80% through constant monitoring and monthly feedback and analysis.
Ensure that at least 80% of the customer complaints are resolved within 3 working days.
Achieve minimum of 80% supplier performance evaluation annually.
Ensure productivity at established targets of 80% implementation of all actions.
Create at least 5 Super wholesalers with capacity for 100 packs monthly
Open an expansive market within the High Networth Dealership market
Work to get a market share of at least 5% within the 2 years of operation.
We have been able to see that there are a number of risk which have been identified in running a tiles and marbles production plant in Nigeria and we have carved out modalities which would attempt to proffer mitigation strategies to the identified risks. One thing of the most important mitigation strategy is working with suppliers whose base of operations is close to ours in other to mitigate against Raw materials delivery breakdown.
Machinery Requirement
As at now, we are assuming that there won’t be a slow-growth economy, without major recession however we also don’t see foresee any changes in technology or market that would make our products and delivery obsolete.
Equipment RequirementMachine MouldsMechanized Tiles materials Mixing MachineVibrating machine platform Weigh and Balances Material loaders Working Tools and Implements Finished Products Testing machine
RAW MATERIALS
The raw materials required for production would be locally sourced and they include water, sand, cement, plasticizers and pigment.
Sand, cement, pigment and plasticizers are used for tiles and marbles production. Clinker or hard-burnt ash often contains harmful impurities and would not be used as aggregate unless it is found to be acceptable by laboratory test.
Sand and stone are fragments of rock and differ only in size. Sand particles will pass through a sieve with 4, 75 mm square openings while stone particles will not. All aggregates used would be clean and not contain organic matter such as roots or humus.
4 PRODUCTION PROCESS
Ceramic Tiles are made from composite material which are composed of coarse granular material (the aggregate or filler) embedded in a hard matrix of material (the cement or binder) which fills the space among the aggregate particles and binds them together on the other hand provide a smooth and glassy surface.
Below is the production process for Tiles and Marbles.
Batching – this is to ensure that the aggregate is well drained.
Mixing – Following the batching, the aggregates together with the binder, as well as pigment if, required, are discharged into a mixer and thoroughly mixed and stored in the hopper ready for dispensing into the moulds.
Filling of moulds – the mixed materials are set and filled in the mold with the help of the vibrating platform machine.
Compaction – This is to enhance the quality and durability of the tiles and marble.
Curing – the quality of tiles and marbles is improved by water curing.

For the Making of Ceramic tiles, they are mixtures of clay, quartz, feldspar and other natural materials which ar are shaped into slabs and fired at a high temperature of about 1200’ C. Over sixty- five million square meters of ceramic tiles are imported into Nigeria according to Ceramic World review magazine published in Italy while combined local production capacity is about 100,000 – 150,000 Sq Metres of tiles per day.
This shows a growth level of 10 – 12% per annum. Statistics have shown over the years that the industry has witnessed a huge rise in the demand of ceramic tiles which is largely attributed to the increased awareness about the hygiene factor coupled with a greater emphasis laid on ambience.
Based on ever increasing deficit in housing supply in Nigeria which is estimated at over sixteen million (16,000,000) units and the need for the construction of other important infrastructure, for the country to meet up with her objectives of becoming amongst the top 20 economies in the world by 2030, it will continue to drive the need to ceramic tiles, an essential construction raw material.
If this report is true and it is true, then there is much profitability in establishing a ceramic tiles production plant in Nigeria capable of producing a large of tile sizes.
We have initially stated that the raw materials that is required for production of ceramic tiles in Nigeria includes Clay, Feldspar, Quartz, Glaze, Natural gas and Water.
In Nigeria, the market for ceramic tiles production can be classified into two segments institutional (accounting for 30 per cent) and retail (rest 70 per cent). The institutional segment is characterized by low operating margins, long credit periods and a high inventory turnover. The retail segment is characterized by high selling and distribution costs, and good margins and credit recovery.
