A lot of people are interested in chicken farming as a business, but not many of them know where to begin. When I started out in chicken farming, it took me time to learn the ropes. I’ve compiled some information and hard-earned wisdom from my experiences, and have come up with a set of plans and instructions which will be useful for anybody considering raising chickens as a business.
Business Plan for Chicken Farming in South Africa Whether you raise chickens for fun or profit, you can’t go without a business plan. “Business plans help everyone, from the mom-and-pop entrepreneur to the mega corporation,” says James Estes, professor of management at the University of Southern California’s Marshall School of Business.

Poultry business plan objectives
To establish a poultry farming business in South Africa.
Poultry Business Plan Report
The South African poultry market is very competitive, but there are opportunities to make money in different areas, such as:
Breeding and broiler production
Processing and marketing of eggs, chicken and pork products
To start with, we will focus on breeding and broiler production. The main reasons for this are that the market is large, there is no competition in the area (yet) and it is easy to implement. It will also help us to get our feet wet before expanding into other areas. The breeding phase will last for about 5 years before we move into full scale broiler production. We have identified a piece of land approximately 35km from Johannesburg where we can build our farm. This location has all the necessary infrastructure required for a successful operation including water, electricity and internet access.
Chickens have been used to produce eggs for thousands of years. In fact, there are records of chickens being used as food as far back as 6500 BC in China. Today, chickens are bred all over the world, including in the United States where they are the most popular type of poultry raised for meat consumption.
There are several types of chickens that can be raised for eggs or meat. Many people raise chickens for eggs because they are easy to care for and provide a steady supply of fresh eggs every day from spring until fall when other sources may become scarce. Chicken meat is also very popular because it is very lean and has less calories than other types of meat such as beef or pork. Both types of poultry provide protein that is important for good health and nutrition but one type does not necessarily replace the other!
The following is a sample business plan for a new chicken restaurant.
The purpose of this business plan is to outline the concept, mission and objectives of Chicken Coop.
Chicken Coop will be a fast food restaurant specializing in fried chicken. The menu will consist of fried chicken, fries and coleslaw. Customers will order their food at the counter, then wait for their number to be called; similar to how a pizza parlor operates.
The location for Chicken Coop will be on Main Street in downtown Louisville. This location was chosen because Main Street is one of the busiest streets in Louisville during lunch hour. It is also adjacent to two major hotels and two large office buildings; all of which are potential customers for Chicken Coop’s lunch service.
The initial investment required for Chicken Coop is $100,000 including $50,000 for equipment and $50,000 for working capital (including inventory).

Broiler Chicken Business Plan
Company Description:
Broiler Chicken is a business that sells chicken products to people who live in the city. The main product we sell is broiler chickens. We also sell other products such as eggs, cheese and milk. We are located on the edge of the city where there are many farms and farmers that raise chickens for meat or eggs. We buy these chickens from them at a low price and then sell them to our customers at a higher price. We make a profit by buying at a low price and selling at a higher price.
Market Analysis:
There are several markets that exist in this industry. The first market is the local market which consists of people who live in the city near where we are located. These people buy our product because they do not have time to take care of their own chickens or do not have enough space to raise their own chickens so they buy ours instead. Another market is the export market which consists of people who live outside of this region but still want to enjoy our products even though they cannot come here themselves because it would be inconvenient for them due to distance or other reasons like work schedules etc…
Chicken is one of the most popular meats in the world. It is an affordable source of protein, not just for humans but also for pets. The broiler industry has a large market share in terms of the number of birds sold. The supply chain is also well established and products can be sold at wholesale, retail or directly to consumers.
The broiler industry has been growing steadily over the years and is expected to continue doing so. This makes it an attractive industry for investment. The main challenge is to get access to land and labor at a reasonable cost.
This sample business plan provides an overview of how a broiler farm could operate, including information about its location, size and equipment needed to set up such a farm
Executive Summary
This is a business plan for a new broiler chicken farm. The farm will be located in the Eastern Region of Ghana. The project will produce 150,000 chickens per month and it will employ 10 workers during its first year of operation. The owner of this project has already invested $20,000 into the business as an initial capital investment. The estimated revenue for 2016 is $300,000 and the estimated profit is $50,000.
The objective of this project is to give farmers in rural areas an opportunity to make extra income by raising chickens that they can sell at market price or to poultry processing companies in their area. It also helps farmers who have no access to other sources of income by providing them with steady employment opportunities and making them financially independent from time to time. This project will also help reduce poverty levels in rural areas by providing farmers with jobs that pay them enough money for their basic needs such as food and clothing etc…
