Scrap Metal Business

I intend to start buying and selling of scrap metal in Nyanza. What do I need to look out for? What licence do I need? Who are the buyers that will buy from Kisii/Nyamira?
What are the markups in other regions especially for those who have done the business?
Thanks.

Be ready to deal with cartels an cops.

be prepared kulala cell a day or two before ujuane na polisi. Guys will sell you chuma za kuiba. like kakijana katoe chuma ya chaff cutter nyumbani kakuletee. kafinywe makende na baba yake kaletane kwako. All in all, iko na profits. Its a good biz

D- my nigga. D-
Stay away from railway chumas, guard rails za barabara chuma za street lights or any other chuma ya sirkal. And kaa macho na mtu yeyote ule anakuja ku demand these types of metals…chances are ametumwa kukuseti. Ukishikwa fine ni 6 figure. Ukiona D- wako area na una that stuff…duc as fast as you can…you are more lucrative than say mlevi au mgema wa cham if im not wrong. Hata hawa mafundi wa mjei who need heavy railway sleepers ku compress slab…kuwa macho nao na uruke hio story labda ka ni boy wako. Na ukishikwa…toa mkwanja kabla ufike steshen na ukifika stenje toboka kabla ufike mbele ya mahakama. Best of luck. Sincerely.
