Ready Made Garments (1 Viewer)

[Ashfaque]

Hi,

Do any one of you could guideline me what steps need to be take to stand up a small readymade garment plant? I am talking about sewing machines, desigss, latest clothing type etc..

I am planning for the same but I don't have any experience. But I am sure Insha Allah I could handle it. I have good enough capabilities of checking qualities of clothes, handling staff etc..

My overall budget is not more than US$ 10,500 which could be around 450,000 Indian Rupees. I hope the budget in enough to take a start up. One thing would like to mention here that, in India we can get good quality raw material at reasonable price. Also both the skilled and unskilled man power is easily available at affordable value.

I need to take start. But from where to start ? How much budget should be invested ion machinery and initial raw material? There many questions related.

Has anyone of you have any idea?

With kind regards,
Ashfaque

Thank you Uncle,

You are right. China's cheap clothing shaken the garment market. But those who likes the quality are still interested in good quality clothings. The chinese garments are cheap off course but are not long lasting whereas rest of the country's clothing are better even though they are costly.

I beleive that china has not yet entered in Indian market and there is no chances even bcz we have huge good quality products of clothings here in India. Our government will never allow them at least in the field of garments.

And moreover most of the Indian like our own fashion in our own produced clothes.

Hence I am sure the business would not get effected by the Chinese clothes.

I appreciate your hint to alert myself of these facts.

But I need to get start up with kids garments at the begining.

Any other ideas ?

With kind regards,
Ashfaque

It would be important to identify the market niche that you are targeting. I cant see you kids clothing in mind. However, you have to know thier goegraphical location ie, is it Indian Kids in India, or Kids in America , Uk etc.

Here in the United states, this would be a big business, if you get to deal with some established retailer like Targer or K-mart. The catch is that some of these large retailers will insist that you own some expensive and sophisticated EDI software for communication, which I guess you cant afford at this time.
My advice is, try to talk to a retailer and check out theier requirements for business partnership. This way, you already will have some marker for your products, in addition you would be selling some in other markets that you may identify.

Good Luck

Ashfaque don't make assumptions about the market that is a golden rule. You are in an established market there will be lots of market reports floating around. Many of them you can view for free in business libraries. Do your homework and then do your own targeted customer survey. Don't move onto the finance section of your business plan without a good understanding of the market. You will definitely regret it. The clothing market is competitive especial in places like India.
