Textile Business Investment Opportunities in Punjab

- Very fast-growing business. We scaled this business very quickly as soon as we started this business in 2011. - We currently have 45-50 clients spread from Amritsar to Hyderabad and Manipur as well. - The market size is very huge and presently there is no competition as far as scheduled manufacturers are concerned. - High potential and high margins can be achieved through economies of scale. - Looking at the business potential, we decided to expand and diversify into related businesses before the pandemic and we bought land and started construction of the new factory but got trapped because of the pandemic. - Most savings and reserves were used to complete the project and sustain the business which was halted due to the shifting of educational institutions to the online mode which resulted in no sales for almost 3 years. - However, we used our core strengths and not only established our new factory and trained a new workforce, and started online sales with Flipkart, Meesho, and amazon. - We also started to make handmade ladies' dress material which resulted in the expansion of our business line on online platforms/commercial websites. - We also pitched uniforms requirements with some European armies and we worked in tandem with fabric suppliers and got our trousers approved by the buyers in the last 2 years. - Now we have orders for 1,000 pants per month from one buyer which is expected to increase to 3 more buyers in the next 6 months thereby making the requirement 3,500 to 4,000 pants per month. - While improving our business, and also establishing new factories, and sustaining our manufacturing facility, we are shackled due to the minimum working capital available to achieve higher targets. - Most of the money generated is used in paying off EMI and servicing bank interest. - The business partners and customers know our strength and they want to increase business with us but we are not able to move forward due to a scarcity of working capital. - Although customers give advances we need investment from our side which gets constrained due to financial stress. - We have a well-established name and quality in the market. - We have understood the online sales business very well and we are confident of achieving a sales growth rate of a minimum of 50% year on year for the next decade.
