Executive Summary
The world of business is changing very rapidly, and companies that do not adapt to these
changes, could quite possibly find themselves marginalized by stronger competition. The
effective use of technology is an absolute necessity for any business that desires to stay
competitive.
Leather industry, including leather products, is the second largest export earning sector after
textiles in Pakistan. Currently, this sector is contributing around $700 million a year but has the
potential to multiply volume of exports with the improvement of quality and diversification in
different range of products, specially garments and footwear. Basically, it is a job-oriented sector
providing employment to a very large segment of the society besides earning foreign exchange
for the country.
During the current financial year, the shortfall in Leather and Leather products exports was
started because of the leather manufacturers were facing liquidity shortage as their funds wereblocked in stocks of leather garments production. In addition the duty drawback rates on both
finished and leather made-ups were slashed; thus, further frustrating problems for exporters
hampering the sector to reach the target. Leather and Leather garment industry of Pakistan is
confronted with various challenges to survive in international market. On top of them is the use
of Hi-tech for quality products and availability of skilled manpower to fulfill the needs of the
world market.

Business trend/ future need
Leather product is a fashion symbol for teenager and youth generation in the western world like
USA, Canada, Germany, France and Italy. Now in these days every business is facing decline
due to the global crisis. Leather products are treated as fashion symbol and to protect the bodies
against cold. So we have forecast that the future need/trend is bright due to the above two
reasons.
Total Market Size
95% of the leather garments manufactured in the country are targeted towards exports.
In 2008, an estimated 10 million pieces of leather garments were exported from the
country.
Local consumption of leather garments is minimal and is estimated to be less than 90,000
pieces per annum.
Target Customers
Our target will be youth, Lower-middle class to upper class and people from the Showbiz
industry.
Competitors Analysis
It is very important to analyze the competition environment of the industry in order to compete
successfully. It is good for strategy making to identify the strengths and weakness of competitors
and try to differentiate itself from them. That is our advantage for having no competitors yet,
who is offering such a wide range of fancy leather articles and accessories.
We have only international competition with
China
Italy
Spain
Turkey

Marketing Plan
The Rexene sheet makers are also main competitors in the national market and international market.
Market segmentation
Market is divided into two major segments as
National market segmentation
International market segmentation
Both further divided into following
Individual/ single consumer
Business customers
Individual consumer are those who will purchase small amount of items for their personal use and
business customers cover all the wholesalers, retailers and others business who will sell them to their
customers.
Market/ industry forecast
Local industry is facing difficult times today. During July-November 2008-09, the leather exports of
Pakistan faced a decline of 27 percent while India, which exported 43 percent more leather garments,
witnessed 27 percent increase in its leather exports during the same period. Indian government is giving
rebate to the exporter so it decreases the cost of producers. Global recession is also another reason for
decline in exports but now government of Pakistan is also thinking about rebates and tax relaxation to the
exporters. So it can boost our economy as well as leather industry particularly exporters.
Basically demand is divided into two parts as
Seasonal demand
365 days demand
Fashion Inn Page 9

Placement
We will open our first outlet in Lahore. It will be situated at M.M Alam Road. If we succeed we
will soon be starting in other major cities.
Product forecasts
As we have dived into segments we believe there will be increasing demand in leather shoes
category but leather jacket, gloves and other leather products may not have great demand in the
local market. On the other hand there is demand of Pakistani leather products other than shoes is
huge. We have flexibility in our operation to deal with flaunting demand in both market and
their demand
SWOT Analysis
Strength
High Growth
Ready availability of highly furnished products Large finished material base
Policy initiatives taken by the Government Capability to incorporate new technologies and handle large projects
Continuous emphasis on product development and design up gradation
Weakness
Lack of warehousing support from the government
International price fluctuation
Fashion Inn Page 16
8/8/2019 MKT Plan Final
17/22
Marketing Plan
High inflation resulting in high labor & other charges
Lack of strong presence in the global fashion market
Unawareness of international standards
Opportunities
Rising potential in the domestic market
Growing fashion consciousness globally
Use of e-commerce in direct marketing
Threats
Major part of the industry is unorganized
Limited scope for mobilizing funds through private placements and public issues (manybusinesses are not according to modern standard)
High markups in obtaining bank loans resulting in high cost of private borrowing
Strict international standards High competition from West
PEST Analysis
Political stability
The political conditions are as worse as it could get. You turn on the TV and all you see
that 100 people die in a bomb blast. The government of the country changes nearly
every two three years. There are no specific control on marketing ethics which can be
taken as a good and a bad thing for our business. Bad control on the tax regulation system
and it takes a lot of time to register a business and thus registration will be a major
problem although checks and balances on this are limited. Most people we target or
mostly the youth is not that much influenced physiologically by the political condition
but their spending power decreases for sure. So pricing our product will be an issue. It is
the Islamic republic of Pakistan but the laws are secular in nature and thus mostly the
fashion industry does not have to comply to religion or culture for that matter which is
actually good and thus different designs can be made.
Economic factors
Fashion Inn Page 17
8/8/2019 MKT Plan Final
18/22
Marketing Plan
It is extremely difficult to get loans and the loans we get are on a pretty high interest rate
and thus there is going to be a shortfall of investment. The cost of production is growing
day by day and thus the raw material is becoming expensive although more people are
willing to work for a low price due to fewer jobs. So economically there are again good
and bad things related. Prices of petrol and transport are increasing thus delivery cost also
increases.
Socio cultural Factors
Cultural clothing and wearing is still in demand once one looks at the wedding side
although western clothing is mixed with our culture in weddings as well. Women are
more easily wearing fashionable clothes that are against the traditional culture. This again
is a good thing because one get a chance to play with designs. More people are liberal
and thus more chance for innovation. People are more status conscious and want to go for
quality as now we have more informed people. Because we have the inn crowd from
different schools and universities as our brand ambassadors we can easily attract thestatus conscious.
Technological Factors
This is the strong part as now websites like ours can be easily manageable with the
technology and fast internet services of today. There are new softwares that can make an
easy to use website for the consumers and they are going to select their own dresses as
well. Online banking and database services makes our job easy to sell online and make
consumers place orders online. Plus FACEBOOK and sms promotions strongest ways to
promote our sort of a brand. Now even in a country like Pakistan one can easily getconsumer involvement and feedback by online surveys normally this is very important.
E-marketing is still new and thus there are a lot of opportunities related to it.
Assessment of risk
Weaknesses of business
Shortage created in local market due to exports of raw and finished leather
Requirement of high working capital
High cost of electricity
Wastage due to unskilled labor

Political Instability
Product Life Cycle
Fashion Inn product life cycle will be at the introduction stage and it will be the pioneers in
introducing such a technology. Profits are usually very low or even negative at this stage.
Fashion Inn will focus on buyers who are ready to buy the products and belong to a high
income group and middle class as well. At this point Fashion Inn will incur high costs.
Pioneers usually gain the greatest advantage. People always remember their name as the firstcompany to come up with such an innovation. The pioneer brand also establishes the quality that
specific product or service should possess. Fashion Inn will also enjoy trend leadership. But if
Fashion Inn fails to position itself properly in the market its business will be a flop plus if the
people of Pakistan do not like the new trend then again the business wont survive for long.
Fashion Inn should have a very strong management which will have a fair idea how to
introduce their product in the market and how to make the people accept it. Informative
advertisement is a great way of introducing your products.
Strategy and Implementation summary
Fashion Inn will provide a competitive frame for its sales and we would offer leather on very
economical prices. ABC Leather co. is exporting (15, 000, 00 ft 2) as per 3$/ft2 us dollars while
Fashion Inn Page 19
8/8/2019 MKT Plan Final
20/22
Marketing Plan
the actual cost of goods sold is about 1$/ft2us dollar and that is huge profit. Fashion Inn will sale
its leather and products in Pakistani currency instead of in us dollars on very economical rates. If
the cost of our goods sold is about Rs/-80 and then we will sale it at Rs/-100 in Pakistan that will
be a great attraction for the customers and it will be helpful to generate more customers and
revenue as well.
Let suppose If we sale about (200,000 ft2/ year)at outlet by getting our profit margin as Rs.20/ft2
then we can get Rs. (400,0000) in a year easily. Thus we can be able to earn our estimated cost in
the first year of the business that has been spent on starting for this business.
Sales strategy
Fashion Inn sales strategy will be based on display and visibility. A high visible outlet with
attractive and unique products catches more attention. This is especially in the case of women`s
shoe and fashion accessories. We will provide complete range of products and prices will be
reasonable. Once a customer comes in the door, they will be greeted and assisted as much or as
little as they wish. We also plan to have software to collect customer information such as:
Names, addresses, email addresses and phone numbers
What type of the leather or products the customers prefer.
COMPETITIVE EDGE
FASHION INN will offer a sales promotion on special occasional basis like Eid, New Year
arrival, on summer and winter season such as
Buy one, get one at half price
Buy one, get one free
Half on products on the season end
Staff
when the company begins the start-up phase, I want to hire an assistant to basically be my right
hand and another person for coverage and make sure that the hired persona are trustworthy, have
great attitude and can provide excellent customer service.
