Expansion of a Contracted Fuel Haulage Business in Ghana

Andersen Finance is advising a fast-growing petroleum haulage company in Ghana, on a USD 1 million capital raise to double its fleet capacity and scale a de-risked, government-anchored revenue stream.

This is not a startup. It is an expansion of a proven, operating business with an existing contract with Bulk Oil Storage and Transportation (BOST), Ghana’s national fuel distributor.

The Opportunity

• Ghana’s petroleum consumption grew +17.65% in H1 2025, driving structural demand for haulage capacity
• Chronic shortage of compliant, reliable fuel transporters
• BOST is actively increasing volume allocations to trusted operators
• Expansion unlocks immediate, contracted revenue growth

Core thesis:

Increasing fleet size directly increases guaranteed haulage volume and revenue.

Business Snapshot

• Founded: 2023
• Current Fleet: 5 certified Bulk Road Vehicles (BRVs)
• Post-Investment Fleet: 10 BRVs
• Employees: 10
• Current Client: BOST (government-backed, low default risk)
• Operations: Nationwide Ghana + regional transit routes

Use of Funds (USD 1,000,000)

• 75% – Acquisition of new certified fuel tankers (BRVs)
• 10% – GPS, fuel monitoring & compliance technology
• 10% – Working capital & maintenance buffer
• 5% – Driver training & certification

This investment doubles haulage capacity and improves margins through operational technology.

Why you should invest

This opportunity allows investors to scale a proven petroleum haulage business operating within a government-backed fuel distribution framework in Ghana. Capital is deployed into income-generating, asset-backed vehicles, creating a clear and direct link between investment, capacity expansion, and revenue growth.

The business benefits from non-discretionary demand, high regulatory barriers to entry, and structurally growing fuel consumption. Post-expansion, the project targets 30–40% annual investor returns, with projected annual net profit of USD 324k–528k and capital payback in under 36 months.

This is exposure to essential infrastructure-style cash flows, not a speculative startup investment.
