Hi thank you 4 your email first you must have beekeeping experience of handling bees!
We found the best way to start Bees for business is to start with 25 hives this should pay back in a season the moneys you have spent out to start. (Even year of the floods was not a complete disaster in the end)
The 25 working hives will cost £250 each =£ 6250 and should return you about one ton of honey, on average a jar of honey sells for £3.20lb there is 2240lbs in a ton that’s £7168.00 per season.
We are buying at bulk rate (£2.20lb = £3360) so you have a guarantee sales.
The hive consist of a B.S.National brood box with a family of Carniolan bees on hoffman frames- floor- frame feeder-Q/ex- crown board-roof- (we keep everything the same size makes beekeeping simple)
All frames- hives- wax- bees- queens will be new there will be no second hand equipment everything will have a Ministry certificate of heath giving you a guaranteed treated disease start.
