Problem: Deforestation of the bamboo tree species in Nigeria. Building construction activities in Nigeria is one of the leading factors of carbon emissions. There are 3 categories of building construction companies in Nigeria. A - the mega construction companies who are mainly multi nationals who handles mega projects B- The middle stage who are mainly Nigerians with degrees that services the middle income and the high income class. C- The Artesians who are trained mostly by the middle stage consultants. The middle stage companies handles 80% of the construction business in Nigeria with little or no construction equipment. They are the leading users of bamboo and that's where our company BUZBUILD CONCEPTS LIMITED is. We aligned with the carbon foot print reduction in 2019 and adopted the use of steel support systems called (Acro prop) on all our sites, this helped us to reduce the use of bamboo on our construction services to 10 percent. We need funds to acquire more to go commercial, in a format that will require other companies in our category to rent these props at affordable rate and discourage them from the use of bamboo. We made little investment in acquiring a vehicle and few of the systems for our projects and it's yielding results hence the need for more funds.
Unique Selling Point: People in our categories are using tree bamboo which has tremendously increased carbon foot prints of building construction activities. My solution is in line with a green building construction activities
