Quick math.... YEEEAHH, you don't want to miss this🤗
This week we have been looking at the dirty trials of the black soldier fly.... Here's why you may really want to take a closer look...😁😁😁😁
What the global market says
BSF egg prices are wildly unstandardized worldwide
Efficient producers can get costs below $0.20 per gram to produce �
Manna Insect
Retail prices, especially in developing markets, are much higher due to scarcity, risk, and know-how
Example retail data point:
75 g for $350 → about $4.67 per gram (export market listing) �
eBay
So eggs are not priced like grain. They’re priced like tiny biological gold dust.
🇸🇱 Reality check for Sierra Leone
We’re not just selling eggs. We’re selling:
Genetics (productive colony starter)
Time saved (months of trial-and-error)
Reliability
Training value
Access to a new feed ecosystem
And supply locally is basically… a mirage in flip-flops.
💰 Recommended price tiers (VERY practical)
🥇 Starter retail (small farmers, backyard poultry, fish farmers)
$2.50 to $4 per gram (remember what we were producing at the beginning of last week??? 2.7KG LET'S LET THAT PERCOLATE FOR A SECOND😁😁)
≈ Le 55,000 to Le 88,000 per gram
👉 This is the sweet spot for Facebook / WhatsApp sales
👉 Position as premium, high-hatch, locally adapted eggs
🥈 Bulk / commercial buyers
$1.25 to $2.25 per gram
≈ Le 28,000 to Le 50,000 per gram
Offering discounts at:
10 g
25 g
50 g
100 g+
🥉 Strategic partner pricing (large farms, NGOs, hatchery builders)
$1 per gram or less
We use this only when:
They buy repeatedly
They co-invest
They create downstream demand
They become distribution hubs
🧠 Power move most sellers miss
We are Selling solutions, not just eggs.
Creating bundles like:
🌱 “Starter Colony Kits”
Eggs (5 g or 10 g)
Attractant substrate
Additional cost for nets
Rearing guide (local materials)
WhatsApp support
Feeding protocol
We can charge MORE than eggs alone.
A game CHANGER for the local economy..
NEXT MOVE... INCREASE PRODUCTION TO SCALE ACCORDINGLY..
Class is now in Recess 😁🤗😁💥🔥
