HUMAN RESOURCES
Ms. Zulma E. Brooks, CEO of GC and Mico Toy Co. will run the
company solely
as an e-commerce store while recruiting and screening for the best
qualified
candidates to assist in operating G.C.Once hired, all employees
will be covered
by the Workers Safety and Insurance Board and covered for
Employment Benefits.
INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS
Mico Toy Cowillincur costs for business liability insurance. The
estimated cost for
this requirement is $125,000 per year.
Operating Capital Requirements
Due to the demands imposed at start up, Grinders Creed will require
that the business have sufficient working capital to meet all
operational responsibilities of the business for the first three
months. Thus the amount of $100,000 for its e-commerce store
launch.It is estimated that the business will need approximately
$5.5 million in working capital to sustain and ensure the business
meets all opening and on-going financial obligations.
Also, throughout the year there tends to be periods of low
activities. Consequently, the company will experience financial
pressures during these months. While much of this time will be
spent developing proposals and marketing strategies, there will be
a need to maintain sufficient working capital to cover these
periods.
A long term strategy to maintain a positive cash flow during these
periods will be to diversify the company and develop environmental
training programs for certain communities. These training programs
will be given during these months.
