You can easily inquire about the price of Keke napep in your location, purchase a brand new or fairly used tricycle and make money by employing a driver that will deliver money to you every day.
Factors that make the Tricycle business very Lucrative
- There is an imposed ban on the use of Okada (business motorcycles) by state governments of several states, as a result, there is a high demand for moving passengers to and fro.
- It is cheap compared with other modes of transportation, therefore, it is the most used mode of street transportation in the country presently.
- The tricycle industry is supported by the Nigerian government who is making plans to boost the use of tricycle by introducing solar-powered Keke Napep with 2019 budget. Therefore we can say that the tricycle business is a feasible business idea to establish.
Several ways you can make money with your tricycle
Once you can afford a tricycle you don’t need to be on the wheel to make money.
With a good business plan, you can easily get a loan from a microfinance bank for your Keke napep business.
Here are several ways you can easily make money after purchasing your tricycle.
- You can purchase a Keke and get somebody to ride and remit cash to you on a daily basis.
- keke napep hire purchase: This involves buying a tricycle and giving it to a Keke rider or tricycle riders association and get an agreed fee remitted to you on a daily, weekly or monthly basis. If you practice the Keke hire purchase after the contract is terminated the tricycle driver becomes the new owner. Therefore you need to enter a good agreement with the tricycle rider or tricycle riders association. With that, you will get back the money you invested in purchasing the Keke and make an additional profit.
- Opening a Tricycle Company: You can open a tricycle company where you will employ some workers to ride your tricycle. You can get daily returns through this method and pay your drivers by the end of the month.
