Little wonder why people rush snacks instead of searching round for food. Example of such people are those who goes to stadium to watch match etc. Snacks automatically becomes their immediate food.

The peanuts supplied to markets are not enough often times it will be scarce for weeks even up to a month before the next supply will come. Meanwhile you can count the number of peanuts brands in the market. At least in my location I can only mention only but two.

So peanut burger business is not crowded. The first product burger has been there for such a long time before it started having a few competitors. Yet it is not enough judging from Nigeria’s population I think we need more peanut burger companies because the few we have cannot cover everywhere for now their concentration is on major towns and cities what happened to those in other cities and rural environment who would have loved to snack about with this product. This is one of the reasons I am writing this post giving clarion call that more people should be involved in producing delicious peanut burger for our teeming population. Young and industrious people..

For the peanut to be smooth do them in batches and rub the egg mixture before frying. The egg mixture in turn binds the flour to the nuts
Do not use too much flour.

In other to beat or penetrate the market where some big companies have been making waves for decades you must have to up your game by starting with an appealing packaging.

Approach people who are into the business of deigning packaging materials to do that for you. Is not anywhere in the market for you to buy. You can use different materials for your packaging such as cups, containers and nylon. The kind of packaging you use will attract people to your product.

And since you are just starting why don’t you go for something that both the rich, the average and the poor can have a bite.

The profit in peanut burger business relies solely on overturn. The more you produce and sell the more gain you stand to gain. To maximize profit you must learn to buy things in bulk such as sugar, flour, groundnut (in bags) etc.

Snacks generally are very profitable, it can provide from 70%-100% and over. Take chin chin business for instance the profit is high.

TIPS

Make sure you use a tasty groundnut. There are different varieties of groundnut but the small ones are said to be tastier than others. Groundnut is what makes peanut burger please select bad or spoilt ones away bad groundnut means bad burger.

Produce only quantities you can sell quickly, remember the more groundnut stays the more it get spoilt. So always produce fresh and tasty peanut burgers. Use vegetable oil that is best suited for frying not the ones that the nuts can drink.

You can mix different flavours until you arrive at a unique taste. You can also spice up your burger with ginger, pepper etc. Or produce a sugar-free burger for diabetic patients or people who don’t like sugar instead use honey.
Once you start your peanut burger production please don’t go down on the taste and always make the product available in the market before another person on sits you.
