Business Description of Cinema Business Plan in Nigeria
Business: Cinema/ Movie Theatre
Industry: Entertainment
PATILAD Cinema is an Ota based Movie Centre in Ogun State Nigeria. Since the establishment of this district the residents have not been able to go to a movie theatre unless they travelled out of town. In several surveys conducted over this period, residents wishing to enjoy a day out at the movies have to drive about 60km to a Cinema like Ikeja City Mall, Silver Bird Galleria which features some Movies. And once they get to the Cinema, it often times not worth all the stress of driving all the way. We did a survey round the 30km radius of the local government encouraged a group of volunteers, among them business owners/operators, to investigate the viability of operating a multi-screen movie-theatre.
In early 2016, the Patilad Cinema became registered under the Film Board Association of Nigeria. The directors researched other jointly-owned and operated movie theatres in Nigeria, established goals and objectives for this enterprise, analysed the market potential, looked at strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and threats and developed a preliminary marketing and financial plan. The project is an ambitious one but also an exciting one which will help the Ota business community, create jobs and definitely support a climate for new business investment in the City and beyond.
