7. Business Model

(Profitability, growth and commercial sustainability, projected profits for first 3 Years) Sales forecasts are an essential element in a business plan. A sales forecast sets the standards for expenses, profit and growth. Forecasting is basically making an educated guess as to how a company will do in the near future.

The global apparel and accessories retail industry is expected to witness modest growth during 2012-2017 and reach an estimated US $1,369 billion in 2017 with a CAGR of 4% over the next five years.

Lucintel, a leading global management consulting and market research firm, has analyzed the Global Apparel and Accessories Retail industry and presents its findings in “Global Apparel and Accessories Retail Industry 2012-2017: Trend, Profit, and Forecast Analysis.”

The apparel and accessories retail industry is fragmented and consists of clothing stores for men, women, children, clothing accessories, shoes, jewelry, luggage, and leather goods. The industry has short product life cycles and is characterized by demand fluctuation.

APAC dominates this market and is expected to grow at the highest rate during the forecast period. A rapidly growing middle class, market oriented stable economy, availability of trained manpower at competitive cost, and local availability of most raw materials in India, China, and Japan is expected to drive market in Asia.

Wow Fashion is expected to start with a total approximate capital of £50,000.00 and grow at a steady pace of 40% per year.This would mean that end of year 1, the company would be valued for £70,000.00 and end of year 2, it would be valued for £98,000.00 and end of year 3 would be £137,200.00

This is in consideration of the seasons effects where sales crash in quiet periods and take a boost in peak seasons.

In the months of January & February, sales are expected to grow at a steady pace of 4%, this is because of the sudden end of the Christmas season where most people have spent their savings.

March & April will see a greater rise of about 6%, this is because the season will be on the border of changing and new styles are being introduced considering the season change.

May, June & July will see a steady growth of 10% as this will be the peak of the summer season and new products and styles have matured and widely accepted by people and moreover would put the previous year summer outfits out of date.

August & September will fall slightly to 4% growth rate because of the slow change of season & new products not yet matured in the market

Page 12: Wow Fashion Bus Plan

October will see yet another fall on up to 1% as Christmas will be coming close and people will start to save money for the holidays.

November and December will see a boost of up to 15% sudden growth because of the Christmas season and will spend their savings on buying gifts for friends and families and moreover, the matured market for the winter items.

This will sum up to a total of 40% per year growth and excludes unforeseen factors and considering all things being equal

8. Competition

This business establishment is increasing the healthy completion in the market of clothing. As there are already many small and medium businesses are working and offering the same product. But we know that the clothing business is very much based on the innovation and time management to offer your product to right person at right time. So we are very confident to have a competitive edge as one of our team members have very good terms with the suppliers of these clothes. This will help us to provide quality products to our customers.

9. Supply Chain

At initial stage our strategy for supply chain is to get contract with amazon and eBay so that we do not need to hold different outlets. I will initially rely on the online selling and will be selling our product online. Moreover, beside this we will open one out let in near future so that we could develop good relationship with our customers. If I talk about our supply chain process of getting goods it is little complicated. As we will be importing different stuff from Pakistan and India which is already been sort out. There are 6 suppliers from both countries which offer us complete clothing solution at very reasonable price.

Page 16: Wow Fashion Bus Plan

10. Marketing & Sales

10.1. Market size and potential to grow

The potential market for our business is whole population of UK. We are especially focussing on households which are facing difficulty in purchasing high priced braded clothes, but they want to but high quality product. So there is a very huge market and potential customers.

Moreover, as we will start our business it also provides us with an opportunity to develop good will and image of our products. We will maintain and continuously improve customer experience with us and definitely there is very good probability to grow and develop our business very quickly.

Wow Fashion’s market can be broken down into three different segments;

Men’s Women’s Kids

Each of these segments will be addressed individually.

10.2. Market segmentation

Wow fashion will focus on women’s fashion the most followed by men’s fashion and then kids at the end. This order of priority is based on the market growth and customer demand in the fashion industry.

Page 17: Wow Fashion Bus Plan

10.2.1 Women

Women 18-25 years of age: Youth drives the market so this is an important group to attract to the website and the online market places. They have less money than the older group so we must give them what they want for less. The key is to have inexpensive selections in each clothing group that have the popular cut. The company's logo attractiveness to this group cannot be stressed strongly enough. The initial small purchases will grow larger over time.

Women 26-40 years of age: They are the core group that will drive Wow fashion’s success. This target group is responsible for the growth of outdoor women's wear. They will be harder to pull into the website. Once there, the key will be promoting the quality, attractiveness and savings. In addition, we will have to assure that the purchase will fit the way the customer wants it to. It will be crucial that the return policy is hassle-free and speedy.

10.2.2 Men

Men typically between the ages of 18-35 will be the target for most menswear as there will be trendy and smart fashion to offer this group. This group has more money at their disposal so the aim will be to provide different sorts of price range products.

10.2.3 Kids

Kids mostly at the early ages of 5-15 years of age will be the target. This group have less money to spare and the purchase costs are mostly borne by parents. The key will be to provide un-resistible fashion wear so that the kids persuasion power comes into effect.
