We deployed agile, short-term operational cycles to test market viability. The goal: Prove the concept, stress-test the logistics, and pivot.
Feb – April • May – July
We ran two distinct "nano" production batches. The objective wasn't indefinite farming, but to prove we could master bio-security and logistics in high-risk zones.
The Akure Pilot (Phase 1) was a definitive success, achieving a 100% Survival Rate. We proved that our management protocols work perfectly, even at a micro-scale.
Phase 2 revealed that while we can keep birds alive perfectly, feed inflation (consuming 172% of revenue) requires a scale-up strategy before the next cycle.
April – August
A 5-month turnaround of a distressed asset. We didn't just manage; we pivoted the model from "Facility Management" to "Product Injection." We invested stock (meat/chicken) instead of cash to drive growth.
By July, the facility stabilized enough to introduce drinks (Beer/Soda). However, the partnership revealed a critical risk: Blind Investment.
Despite the growth we engineered, accountability for funds was compromised. We closed the partnership to protect our capital, proving we can revive dead assets but require transparent partners.
Continuous
The volatility of the physical nano-businesses reinforced our commitment to digital stability. We are building the infrastructure that makes our future operations immune to weather and inflation.
Every lesson learned in the physical "nano" labs is now being codified into our digital platforms (ASIKO).
Documenting the process.
"We pivot from the volatility of physical ownership to the stability of digital capacity."
