If you’ve ever thought “I want to start a pig business in Nigeria”  congratulations, you’re thinking in the right direction. The truth is, pig farming is one of the most profitable agricultural ventures in Nigeria today. Yet, only a few truly understand how to turn it into a sustainable, thriving enterprise.

At P-OGAS Farms, we’ve seen it firsthand. What began as a modest vision in Jos has now grown into one of Nigeria’s largest and most advanced pig farms, powering success stories across the country. From farmers with small pens to agribusiness owners with massive operations, the pig business is changing lives, and it’s your turn to grab a piece of it.


🧩 Why Pig Farming Is the Goldmine of Agribusiness in Nigeria

While others are chasing crops that depend on rainfall, smart entrepreneurs are cashing out from pigs and for good reason.

Fast Growth Cycle: Pigs mature quickly. Within 6–8 months, they’re market-ready, making it one of the fastest turnaround agribusinesses.
High Feed Conversion Efficiency: Pigs convert feed to meat more efficiently than most livestock, which means more profit per kilogram.
Strong Market Demand: From butchers to restaurants, hotels, and export markets, pork is in rising demand across Nigeria.
Reproductive Powerhouse: A single sow can produce 20–25 piglets annually, that’s serious multiplication!

At P-OGAS Farms, we call pigs “wealth multipliers”, because every litter is a new opportunity to grow your financial future.


Starting a Pig Business in Nigeria .... Step by Step

Starting your own piggery doesn’t need to be overwhelming. Here’s how to get it right from the beginning:

1️⃣ Choose the Right Breeds

Your success begins with genetics. At P-OGAS Farms, we breed and sell top-performing global pig breeds such as:

  • Duroc – known for fast growth and rich meat quality

  • Landrace – excellent for breeding and large litter sizes

  • Large White – strong, adaptable, and highly productive

  • Hampshire, Camborough, Large Black, Pietrain, and Danish Protest – breeds that define world-class piggery standards

Each piglet from our farm is not just livestock, it’s an investment in generations of productivity.

2️⃣ Set Up Proper Housing

Pigs thrive in well-ventilated, clean, and spacious pens. A well-planned structure reduces disease risk and enhances growth performance.

3️⃣ Feed for Profit

Balanced feeding is the lifeline of profitability. High-quality feed, combined with clean water, ensures healthy growth and strong returns.

4️⃣ Health Management

Preventive veterinary care, biosecurity, and hygiene practices are non-negotiable. At P-OGAS Farms, we guide clients on practical, result-driven pig health programs.

5️⃣ Marketing & Sales

The market for pork and piglets is massive, local butchers, hotels, suya joints, barbecue restaurants, and even bulk buyers from other regions (like Abuja, Makurdi, Lafia, and Kano). Our farm connects you directly to reliable buyers who value quality pigs.


💼 How Profitable Is Pig Farming in Nigeria?

Let’s talk numbers — because business must make sense.
A well-managed sow can produce 20 piglets yearly, each sold between ₦25,000–₦40,000 depending on breed and weight. That’s ₦500,000–₦800,000 per sow,  not counting meat sales, manure, or boar services.

Multiply that by 10 sows, and you’re already looking at multi-million-naira potential yearly.

With the right training and mentorship, your pen could be printing profit.
