The pre-feasibility study focuses on the establishment of women designer wear Boutique including the operations of apparel designing, manufacturing, selling and marketing. The study has been designed to capture the dynamics of the Boutique industry, with its many components and possible strategic opportunities.

11..22 OOppppoorrttuunniittyy RRaattiioonnaallee

Clothing is a beautiful visual demonstration of the social and emotional needs of people wearing it. It also portrays in a clearly understood visual manner, what people of different cultures and styles want socially. Fashion, through times, has gone through so many rapid changes and bizarre extremes that it has examples of nearly every kind of clothing function.

However, in a boutique business, the specifications and descriptions of the designs and clothes are so general that they can fit more than one costume, which actually are quite different in nature from each other and this is solely dependent on the taste of the people.

The range of Pakistani dresses is remarkably wide, according to the vast cultures, geographical differences, purchasing capacities, influence of the western culture, and bewildering diversities of the ethnic groups. One has, therefore, to sift and isolate, and then relate and bring together, the ideas for creating various designs, which can fit in the context of the fashion in vogue and the culture in practice.

In reference to Pakistan, the Boutique business is quite in vogue but has yet to be formalized. The market of this enterprise is quite scattered and unorganized. There are a few major players in Boutique business and these entrepreneurs have also taken an initiative based on their caprice and experience in the field of fashion design. However, there is a massive potential in this field, if one has the ability to design and market his/her products through introducing innovative designs both in stitching as well as the fabric sector.

Furthermore, there is massive export potential in this sector, as the demand of Pakistani dresses, especially in countries like UAE, USA, and UK, is massive due to a high number of Pakistani expatriates who have settled in these countries. The Boutique business can also be expanded into a more profitable venture by providing stitching facilities to other boutiques, which do not own a stitching unit or are lacking this facility.

11..33 PPrrooppoosseedd CCaappaacciittyy

The Boutique business capacity is greatly dependent on the market size and the number of potential clientele one can attract. Furthermore, the women fashion wear



6

garments will be designed through a contracted designer and then stitched through in-house stitching unit. On average, a designer can supply forty designs per month from which nearly thirty designs are selected on average. Approximately, total capacity of the defined unit with 5 stitching machines (basis on 8-10 hours shift) will be about 7501 dresses. The breakup of the total number of dresses will be as follows:

Total designs selected by designer 30Number of dresses in each design 5Number of dresses in each size 5Total Number of dresses 750

This production and sales capacity is estimated to be economically viable and justifies the capital as well as operational costs of the project.

11..44 TToottaall PPrroojjeecctt CCoosstt

The Boutique shop needs a total investment of about Rs. 1.83 million. This includes a capital investment of Rs.1, 299,430 and a sum of Rs.530, 680 as working capital.

Currently, the boutique industry is relatively unorganized and is scattered in and around the posh areas of the metropolitan cities of Pakistan i.e. Lahore, Islamabad, Karachi, Peshawar, and Quetta. The boutiques in Peshawar and Quetta, mostly sell the traditional dresses having indigenous/local designs, whereas the ones in Lahore, Islamabad, and Karachi deal in fashion wear greatly influenced by the west and the local trends in vogue. As such, there is no exact detail available of the number of boutiques, especially in women wear, because there is no association or link between these enterprises. The reason being the business rivalries and the competitive structure of this industry. However, one can name a few major players in the business such as Indifference, Generation, Parahan, Nee Punhal, Bossini, Kapre Waghera, Maria B, Nina’s, and some individual designer players like Beegee’s, Nilofar Shahid, Nadia Mistri, Amir Adnan, Shayan Malik, and Sahar Saigol.

33 MMAARRKKEETTIINNGG

The marketing of boutique follows the conventional marketing pattern which is dependent on selection of venue of the outlet/s and the product mix (designs and sizes), as well as the promotional strategy. Furthermore, the boutique owner has to marketing techniques like: Usage of print media i.e. printing of posters and pamphlets as well as displaying

it and distributing it at proper places Advertisement in print media i.e. newspapers and fashion magazines, etc.

1 This production also includes additional suits that will be prepared on orders/outsourcing/CMT (Cutting, Manufacturing and Trimming) per month in order to utilize the maximum capacity of the stitching unit.

Usage of electronic media i.e. projection of the boutique in fashion programs, advertisement on television, and provision of dresses to various television plays and films.

Event arrangement like fashion shows and photo-shoots. Usage of e-commerce i.e. launching of website and advertising on web. Moreover, in order to keep abreast with the emerging trends and client tastes, surveys regarding customer satisfaction/needs should be a regular feature of this project.

As this project of Boutique deals in designer women wear, therefore the product mix will comprise of different styles of the female dresses in different sizes. Whereas, the styles will be Shalwar Kameez, Q-lots, Pajama Kameez, Frocks, Kurta, Peeshwaz, Party dresses, Casual Dresses and other prevalent dresses based on the market trends.

Apart from this, there is a vast export potential in this industry, which is evident from the export figures of 1998-99 (available from the data of Federal Bureau of Statistics-FBS).

Even these figures represent the formal export patterns of women dresses from Pakistan and are not representative of the export of these dresses taking place on informal level. Most of the women dresses prepared in Pakistan are exported to USA, UK, Germany, UAE, Saudi Arabia, France, Belgium, Netherlands, and South Africa.

The end users of these dresses in foreign countries are mostly Pakistani and Indian women who have immigrated to these countries.

The raw-material required for such sort of projects, would be as follows: Fabric: The fabric, which is the basic raw material requirement for a boutique

and a major component of the cost, can be obtained from wholesale markets or from markets specializing in designer cloth at Faisalabad, Karachi, and Lahore.

Accessories: Accessories such as buttons, laces, zippers, elastics, threads, needles, embroidery threads, glasses, etc. will be procured from the local market at competitive rates.

Labels, tags and packaging: Labels and tags can be obtained on order, as these serve as an identity for the boutique and are useful for promotion.

The process for converting fabric in designer wear garments follows the below mentioned sequence: Design: The initial process starts from the designing phase. Various patterns of

clothing and the fashions in vogue, which also relate to the tastes of the concerned clientele, are designed. This is done by the contracted designer as he/she will provide the basic designs of which the fabric will be converted into the designer wear garment. On average, a designer is supposed to provide 40 designs per month or 100-120 designs per season i.e. three months. From these designs, approximately 50% of the designs are selected for further development of clothes.

Pattern Making/Cutting: Based on the designs selected, patterns for cutting are developed and based on these patterns, fabric is cut, embroided, block printed, and processed accordingly.

Stitching: The cutting is then followed by stitching, which can either be done by the in-house stitching unit or by outsourcing it3. Labels are also attached to the apparels in this process.

Finishing: The final phase is that of finishing, in which the garment will be checked for quality control and will cleaned (if required) for final presentation at the outlet. The garments will also be tagged for identification of sizes, prices, addresses, handling instructions, etc.

Presentation/Market: Once the designer wear garment is ready after going through the above-mentioned process, it is presented at the outlet/shop for sale to the clientele.

3 In case of over-lock stitching, it will be done in-house. The stitching of buttonholes as well as elastic embedding will be outsourced. This will cost approximately @Rs.5 per dress.

It is recommended that the proposed location for the said enterprise be a posh area, where people have the buying capacity for women fashion wear. The size of the shop should be at least 800 Sq.ft i.e. 20 feet front and 40 feet depth. Furthermore, a small building will be required to establishing the stitching unit. One viable option is to rent a small house for this purpose.

The shop will be obtained on rental basis, and the rent estimation for such a shop isRs 56,000/month. According to the prevailing practice, 6 months rent as advance and three months rent as security would be required for renting the shop. It is assumed that security is a one-time expenditure, whereas pre-paid rent will only be given at the beginning, while establishing the boutique. After first six months, rent will be paid on monthly basis.

The cost estimates for setting up the Boutique are as follows:

There are a number of factors, which contribute towards the success of a project. In case of the project of Boutique, some of the Key Success Factors are as follows: Proper care while producing dresses should be adopted Proper Inventory management i.e. keeping minimum inventory as per past sales

trends. The dress designs should be according to the emerging trends and fashions. Designing of dresses according to the consumer tastes/preferences gathered

through consumer surveys. The location of the outlet should be properly selected and attractively decorated

so as to target the clientele effectively. The customer satisfaction should be given due importance, because it is the

customer satisfaction, which can increase the sales. Hence, excellent customer service should be provided.

1122 TTHHRREEAATTSS FFOORR TTHHEE BBUUSSIINNEESSSS

Competitive Structure of the marketThe market of the boutiques is highly competitive; therefore if the entrepreneur is not well responsive to the tastes and response of the clientele as well as the fashions in vogue he/she may not be able to capitalize the opportunity properly. Pilferage in the designsThe designs which a designer produce can be sold by the staff even before that design is launched and that can pose serious threat to the business because in the fashion industry it is the uniqueness of the design which matters. Selection of the wrong venueSelection of the wrong venue can be a major hurdle in achieving the desired business objectives. Selection of the wrong designIf the designs are not selected according to the tastes of the clientele then it can be detrimental for the business, so the clientele taste should be properly tracked. TaxImproper documentation of the sales receipt record may lead to problems with Tax department.
