Manufacturing concrete blocks is a profitable business opportunity. They are used constantly for all kinds of building projects. They are a commodity which is used to build all kinds of projects from large buildings to small backyard structures such as barbeques.
When you are a concrete block manufacturer you are not making here today,gone tomorrow widgets which may be in demand now but not next year. They are a basic commodity for all kinds of buildings from a huge warehouse to a garage or backyard compost bin. The demand is always strong since building is always going on.
For the person who wants a really good solid business,with modest start up cost,the business of manufacturing concrete blocks is almost perfect. You can start in your garage or back yard,using hand molds and turn out one hundred blocks per day. One person can do this with a good days work. You can make the molds from plywood and sheet metal and anyone can do this in their home workshop or garage.
You can start by working part time in evenings and weekends, and very soon build a highly profitable business.All that is required is the molds and a supply of Portland cement,sand,gravel and water.The cash outlay is very little and the profits can be big.
By Working in your garage,with little or no overhead costs,you have a big advantage over larger concrete block manufacturers,who will be paying for business premises and employee wages and costs. If local builders buy concrete products from distant sources,the cost of transporting them to a building site is high due to their size and weight. You have no such transportation costs and can supply local buyers with concrete products at a very competitive price. You can make yourself an excellent profit. One person working alone,using hand molds, does however have limited production.
The time will come when you can no longer supply the demand with part time work. You will want to go full time in this profitable business. You will want to get a concrete block making machine which will make hundreds of blocks per day.You will also need help at this time and you need a space to store the blocks for drying. The blocks must be dried and cured before delivering them to your customers.
Concrete block making machines are quite costly. You may at this point want to borrow several thousand dollars to buy a concrete block machine. However if you don't want to spend a lot of money you can build a machine yourself.
Build a machine yourself? Well actually this is fairly easy to do. Plans can be obtained which will enable you to build a concrete block making machine. The machine is built from automobile parts and sheet metal. You will need to do some welding but a welding shop will handle this if this is not one of your skills. Rather than spending thousands of dollars on a commercial machine you can,for a very low cost,make a machine which does the job as well as any of them. Now you can turn out concrete blocks in large volume.You can supply any building project,large or small,at a really good price.
Making concrete blocks is an excellent business.The demand for your product is always strong.Success is almost guaranteed if you start your concrete block business as I have suggested.You can work at your day job till the demand for your product requires you to go full time at your business.
