SWOT Analysis for Block and bricks Production Business Plan in Nigeria
Strength: Our strength lies in the quality of blocks and bricks we produce. We are always careful to produce blocks that are of high quality. We put our blocks to test, and only blocks that pass the test are sold. Another is the competency of our workers and our entire customer-centric culture.
Weakness: Inability to meet demand due to limited capacity
Opportunities: The opportunities are limitless. As the population increase, there will always be a need for new infrastructures and superstructures. We are here to supply the essential building materials to meet that need. It is a fact that those who haven’t built a house will want to build one, and those that have already built will want to build a bigger one.
Threats: The major threat we face is the policies of government and association. The final price of the blocks are usually affected by these policies

We would also need at least a molder (vibrator) for the block, molds of different sizes and shapes, block carriers and sheds for storage in all of our branches.

Workers: With an average of nine employees at each branch, we are looking forward to employing over one thousand people in the south-west alone.
Raw materials: A steady supply of raw materials namely fuel, cement, sand and water will be made available for all branches and an average of 50,000 naira profit is expected at the end of each month from the branches.
