Special attention on packaging.

8. INSTALLED & OPERATIONAL CAPACITIES


This pre-feasibility is based on 3 stitching machines with a capacity of manufacturing 300 wallets per 8 hours shift. The total labor required for this unit would be 16. Total number of wallets produced in year one would be 45,000 achieving 50% of the total installed capacity, while maximum capacity (95%) will be achieved with production reaching at 85,500 wallets.

9. GEOGRAPHICAL POTENTIAL FOR INVESTMENT


Lahore, Karachi and Sialkot are three key clusters of leather goods manufacturing. Availability of skilled labor is vital while selecting a location; all the above cities have adequate availability of skilled labor, raw material and other support infrastructure.

13.3 Technology

USEFUL PROJECT MANAGEMENT TIPS

Required spare parts & consumables: Suppliers credit agreements and availability as per schedule of maintenance be ensured before start of operations. The machines proposed are new and of Taiwanese origin, hence requiring little maintenance and repairing. Energy Requirement: The generator has been recommended but should be used only for operating the machinery and other necessary equipment. All extra load (Air conditioning, extra lights, computers, etc.) should be switched off while generator is operating. Machinery Suppliers: Due to high quality requirement of end product, brand new machinery of Taiwanese origin has been recommended. In selecting the machinery multiple sources must be explored. The availability of spares should also be considered. Such machinery is easily available in local markets e.g. REX market near Lahore Railway station. Quality Assurance Equipment & Standards: Global apex standard that needs to be complied with for exporting leather wallets is REACH. The leather should only be sourced from tanneries that offer REACH compliance leather. Adherence to buyers specification/requirement is similarly critical. Any deviations may result in huge claims charged by the buyer and may also result in loss of the client. Strict quality control procedures should be put in place throughout the production and packing process. It is recommended that the manufacturing unit may acquire ISO 9001 QMS certification.

Marketing Product Development & Packaging: Designing and packaging of wallets for exports is usually buyer driven. Strict compliance to the buyers requirements in design and materials must be adhered to. Ads & Point of Sale Promotion: Website of the business should be developed and regularly updated. All inquiries received to be replied swiftly. During the 2nd year of operations, the business may subscribe to paid membership of a good B2B portal. Sales & Distribution Network: The owner should develop contacts / linkages with prospective international buyers through email, fax and telephone and social media. Lists of prospective buyers can be searched through various sources i.e. B2B sites, chambers of commerce and industry, international exhibitions websites, etc.
