maintaining satisfied customers and set the standards, improve each day and have some
fun
Form of Ownership:
This business is based on Partnership in which each partner will get 20% each. Written
contract will be made with the help of legal advisor if any one wants to leave his shares, the
shares will be internally divided among other four.
Industry History:
Readymade garment industry has emerged as one of the important small scale industries in
Pakistan. Its products have large demand both at home and abroad. The local requirements
of readymade garments are almost wholly met by this industry. Its exports in 1999-2000
stood at US $ 772 million or 8.5% of the total exports.
6
7/31/2019 17341902 Business Plan
7/35
The readymade garment industry started in 70's in Pakistan. With the passage of time and
industrialization, this industry expanded very rapidly. The majorities of the units making
cotton fashion garments are medium and small-size in terms of machines, workers and
output, with a few notable exceptions and scattered throughout Pakistan. The importance of
this industry lies in the value it adds to indigenous raw material - cotton + blended cloth -
thereby substantially increasing the revenue from its sale in the international market.
Most important Strength and core Competencies:
No Legal Barrier:
As it is a small venture and it does not need to get registered.
No competitors in the vicinity:
This is competitive edge for the company to start a business in UMT hostel as no one has
taken an initiative to start business of this nature.
Customization:
The main focus of the company is to provide customized products according to customer
preferences.
Customer service:
The main factors of customer service in which company is going to serve customers are:
Free home delivery
Membership cards

Friendly atmosphere
Customization of products.

Variation in price
Price will be varied according to the levels of customization. There will be no variance in
the price of ready made products. Whereas price will be varied for customized products
according to the size, quality and design of product
Significant challenges the company Faces now and in the near future:
LessCapital:
It is a small venture and more over shareholders do not have enough capital to invest.
Another reason is that the business is in initial stage.
Marketing:
Due to limited capital and shortages of budgets, it is not possible to advertise our brand at
higher level. Because of this, our product awareness in the market will be minimum.
Inexperienced:
One of the challenges is that all the share holders dont have any kind of business
experience moreover the company has no experience of negotiating with different suppliers
and vendors.
New Brand:
8
7/31/2019 17341902 Business Plan
9/35
New brand at its initial stage is itself a challenge. As discussed above that due to shortage
of capital we are unable to promote this new brand for better awareness and desired out
comes.
Long term:
The target of the company is to achieve the breakeven in the first six months. From this
point onward we will strive to grow at a constant rate to open a new outlet each year so that
vision of company can be achieved.

Marketing plan:
Market research:
Market research is necessary for all kind of businesses but especially before the
commencement of new businesses. It clarifies different aspects regarding customers
demand, their behavior, and their buying power, their attitude towards the product, their
likings and disliking. It also clarifies about the potential customers of the business and alsohelps the company to focus on those customers more efficiently and effectively. It will help
a business to identify right opportunity and the time at which to hit these opportunities.
Market research gives the company very concrete information which is close to the
accurate because right information is very necessary regarding target markets, their
demands, their norms and values, ethics related to the business and it enables the company
to minimize the risks.
U n ME garments is a small venture and on its initial stages. It does not have enough time
and finance for primary market research. Keeping in mind the position of the business at
the moment an appropriate strategy would be to conduct the secondary research as it will
not prove to be a burden on the finances of the company. it also will be convenient option
for the company.

What barriers to entry keep potential new competitors from flooding into your
market?
High capital cost:
It is not a barrier for the new competitors as any one can start with a low capital.
High production cost:
It can be a barrier and can not be a barrier because it depends on the references of the
business entity.
High marketing cost:
Marketing is not a barrier for this business because a small business does not require
marketing at a bigger level.
Consumer acceptance/Brand recognition:
It can be a barrier because it is always difficult for a new brand to capture the target market
and due to low marketing budget it is almost impossible to create a brand recognition at
initial stage.
Training/skills:
It can be a barrier for new company because if existing company have good marketing
skills, communication skills and technical skills related to garments etc then it will alwaysbe a barrier for new company to compete the existing company.
Unique technology/patents:
11
7/31/2019 17341902 Business Plan
12/35
Because it is a small business therefore it doesnt require any unique technology and
patents.
Shipping costs:
Shipping cost is not a barrier. Because it is a small business and usually small businesses
not go for such big segment.
Tariff barriers/Quotas:
It is also not a barrier because at this small level no legal barrier, government intervention,
taxes are involved.
How could the following affect your company?
Change in technology:
There are two ways of technology change
Positive
Negative
If positive change occurs i-e development in technology it will result in increase in
production whereas decrease in production cost less labor force which will decrease labor
cost, increase quality, new innovative style and design occurs, reduced lead time and
increase in flexibility and vice versa for negative change.
Government Regulations:
There is no involvement of government in our business because it is a small business and it
is not opening on a large scale. This business is just for the selected and specific areas.

Competition:
Porters Five Forces
Bargaining power of Buyers:
Clothing is one of the three fundamental human needs. Everybody needs to buy clothing.
Clothing includes wearing apparel such as shirt, pants, among others. Buyers usually buy in
smaller quantities and do not purchase regularly. Buyers can also easily switch from one
competitor to another in case of product dissatisfaction or if they just want to try other
brands. The idea of custom-fit pants is still a fresh concept in the garments industry and U
and Me is dealing in customized product too; particularly in our business only few buyers,
particularly those in the upper middle, upper class, avail/can avail these products because
of the products perceived high-end status and high price.
Bargaining power of Suppliers:
U and ME will be dealing in pants and shirts which is made of cotton. Pakistan is likely to
remain the largest supplier of cotton and U n ME will buy cotton locally.
Substitute Products:
Ready-made retail products are considered substitute for custom-made clothing. Moreover,
the trend of many universities and offices which uses trousers and jeans has been replaced
by Formal pants. The fabric could also be replaced by other fabrics such as those used in
khaki pants and pants.
Barriers to entry:
Barriers to entry include local policies implemented in the textiles and clothing industry.
As far as U n Me is concerned there is no as such barrier in entering market.

Rivalry:
The garment industry is comprised of many players, both operating on a large scale and
small scale basis. Customers are free to change their suppliers thus creating high
uncertainty for competitors. In terms of origin and operating styles, competitors may range
from boutiques, specialty stores, bazaars, direct selling agents, department stores to big
malls. U and ME is a small venture and have the big threat of having new competitor in the
market.

Marketing Strategy:
Promotion:
Banners.
Leaflets.
Pamphlets
Word of Mouth.
Advertising:
U n Me Garments will use print media for creating awareness to its customers, because the
print media is the most appropriate strategy for it to reach to its target customers. Also the
limited marketing budget does not allow it to go on large scale marketing. As it is operating
on small scale and the target market can be reached through them, there is no need of using
other media for advertising. And whenever new products will arrive, new packages for
sales promotion U n Me garments will go for advertising using appropriate mediums.
It is an effective strategy because pamphlets will be displayed on the notice boards which
are unavoidable for everyone. It is a business operating on small scale requiring marketing
on small scale. The marketing budget is weak allowing only marketing on small level. The
target market is small so print media is the appropriate medium to create awareness for

estate and business success. Spend time scouting out locations that you feel would be great
places to open a coffee franchise business and ask yourself the following questions.
Is this is a high traffic location? Most people are rather lazy by nature. You want to find a
location that people will drive by often.
