Brahms

clothes you have but making them look smart on you and extend their life span
because everything both living and non-living has life span. It is located in Asaba Delta
State due to the content
power supply that will enable me meet up and save fuel money.
CURRENT STATUS
Brahms Laundry
services provides services such as stubborn, old clothes renewal, suit washing
and both military and co-operate uniform washing.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Most people tend to buy that most
costly wears without giving them proper care after use, so we want to create
that point that clothes too can talk.
After
our technical washing, we want our customers ever ready and smart that is why
we do door to door collection of used clothes and delivery of the Brahms
laundry ready one’s.
Business Description
Current Status
The facts of
business is based on the capital investment and the profit outcome. Most of our
materials used in washing are available in the market but being indigenous we patronize those home made products because
they are more chapter and have no infringement on our customers cloths.
We utilize locally made starch
because of its uniqueness, homemade washing soaps and detergent and industrial
jik and chemical.
Clothes
are of different types and colour so in our washing we separate white clothing
form the coloured one’s for white shirts they are soaked with industrial jik
and homemade detergent for 30- 40 mins to enable the stairs dissolve.
While
the coloured clothes are soaked without detergent of prevent washing off the
colour but this clothes are washed instantly using the homemade soap. For
clothes like polos and suit we wash using sponge not to over lenthered the
clothes because they are made of very high fragile texture.
Materials for our services
involves
1. Big baff
2. Soap
3. Detergent
4. Jik
5. Starch
6. Sponge
7. Hangers and pegs
8. Water
Other necessary
equipment are the pressing iron Generator set, water sprinkler, table, shelves,
record book, Nylon, collotype and receipt. Many other materials are also
available but these are the necessary one.
For
a beginner, one can start from the comfort of his/her room before acquiring
shops or even plaza.
After
washing a particular cloth, the cloths are properly ringed and well drained of
logging water before being spread under the sun. when the clothes are spread
outside for drying, interval check-up are done not to allow the high rays of
the sun causing damage to them especially clothes like suits, folos, and
coloured shirts like native.
When
washing shirts or native is the same method but the only thing is that shirts
like white can be soaked with jik and detergent but native that is coloured is
not done so except white and also the quantity of starch applied differs
because shirts need little starch while native’s of high texture needs most of
the starch. For the suits no starch is applied not even the weeding gown nor
the polos.
The
cost of our materials are a bit cheaper because we buy in large qualities and
they are homemade.
Soap - per bar = 120
Detergent - Tin milk equivalent
to big sachet = 200
Jik - N180
(Big size)
Nylon - N100 (100 pieces)
And when all
this materials are utilized, one still have reserves that can serve a bit
longer tog ether more income before purchasing another. Because, already have
water situated in house and available buckets and pegs only pay for soap, jik,
detergent and starch which after my expenses will leave a little profit for me.
The charges are different because of the cloth type which are as follows;
Material Cost (N)
Shirt 150
Native 200
Suit 300
Wedding gown 300
Polo 100
Trousers 100
When at least
clothes of 10-15 are washed you notice that cost of washing materials are
covered because at first I do not buy water and the cost of fueling the
generator is resolved thanks to my site of business.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
This
business is generally done by people in modern and local method but uniqueness
is the sure thing about a business. this business venture is well structured in
a way customers sanitization will be met and also remove extra cost for me in
managing the business.

the metropolis of Asaba can boast of adequate and coat ant light when compared
to places like Bayelsa and Ebonyi. A very industrious and uncreative city with
government. Parastals, private firm, banks, schools, companies and hostels that
contributed much income to the preserving them.
We
also want to embark on process where banker’s, companies would be registered
with us and subsequently we visit them either in their officers or homes to
pick-up these clothes and at the end of the week or month we paid and these in
unique because the customers might decide to bring in all laundry materials of
his/her which we enrich us the more.

but they all termed at making huge profit for that moment and making the
customer regretting taking his/her clothes there. Some laundry firm provide services such as instant making huge
profit for that moment and making the customer regretting taking his/her clothes

Clothes (per) prices
(N)
Shirt 150/200
Native 300
Suit 500

Polos/trousers 100
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
When I wash a total
number of fifteen shirts at the cost of N150
for each the estimate will be 15 shirts N150
= N2250.
When N2250 – total cost of N180
I
make a profit of N450 and my washing material is also reserved which I will
also use for other clothes.
Because
of the high advert of washing machines makes competitive but when one puts on
Brahms touched clothing looks perfect and smart because the clothes are renewed
and the customer enjoys the pay he/she had made.
Also
stained or condemned clothing are renewed and we also provide prividge of
customers even during the raining periods we try as much as possible drying
their clothes Electric fan and instantly packaging them when dry for our
customers to always look smart and presentable.
MARKETING PLAN
CURRENT STATUS
There is no major marketing plan
but rather greater part advert. Our customers are delivered at their door steps
for those who pay the extra charge or they can work into our office to pick up
their ready clothes.
For
easy recognition of customer clothes after packaging them we place name taps
that can quickly identify the particular owner of the cloth.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
To provide customer cordial
relationship and also provide more patronage, we devise a means where our
customer can bring in clothes for washing that cost up to N1000 and they get any their clothes no matter the texture washed
for free this is because we understand customer so much that offer them avenue
to benefit much more from Brahms laundry service.
We
also provide a medium where industries, banks or household can do their laundry
with us and pay us at the end of the week or month.
OPERATING PLAN
CURRENT STATUS
Brahms laundry
service located in the busy city of Asaha, Delta-state is unique because we
surrounded with other existing commercial cities Onitsha, Anambra state and
Benin, Edo state with good motorable roads that customer can come and patronize.
Basically we serve our customers six (6) days that is Monday – Saturday in a
week.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
We are
determined in providing satisfaction to our customers, so therefore when ever
our customer clothes are ready we do mobile business by caching them or text
messaging them to alert them that their clothes are set.
MANAGEMENT AND ORGANIZATION
CURRENT STATUS
The very
management of any business depends on it’s goods and aim, that is why Brahms
laundry service we make sure each customers clothes are recorded and the
customer sign at the point of delivery.
We however place tags to identify
each particular customer clothes to avoid misplacement.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
For the delivery of our customer
clothes we endeavor that our customers request for the door delivery and the
extra charge attached.
The
material our cloth washing are basically locally made so we try as much as
possible to pay up front to get constant supply. Also for every cloth brought
to Brahms laundry service that is up to N1000,
the customer get any his/her cloth washed for free.
Basically,
we have water supply and constant power at our disposal but is our aim so we
also make available extra hand to assist in the cloth ironing and provide
generator set in case there is power failure to enable us meet up to our
customers satisfaction.
FINANCIAL PLAN
CURRENT STATUS
The essence of investing in
business is profit making. When a business no matter the mere capital at the
end of the day gives returns to the investors is a lucrative business.
The
initial start up capital of a business differs depending on one’s choice. A
basic capital of N5000 for a start and a subsequent capital investment
depending on the outcome.
DEVELOPMENT PLAN
Investing capital of N5000 into
the business of laundry will go a long way carrying the business because after
purchasing the materials for use, you will also print little flyer with the
business location and name which any eye beholds will be eager to know what is
new because Nigerians always go for that new product.
However,
if say the materials cost N1300
Advert notice (flyers N2000)
One
can easily start up the business without committing into protocol of borrowing
loan and the initial capital of N5000 after expenses one is left with N1200
which can be utilize for awareness and customer cloth delivery.
CONCLUSION
Current status
Every
business demands capital as its bedrock but the uniqueness of any business is
the method of operation. Brahms launder services however a small scale
business or rather a one man business
want people to know that looking good is a nice business because one is
addressed the way he/she is dressed.
Development plan
The
essence of laundry is making clothing material near and when put on brings out
that glowing beauty and smartness.
For
bankers who are more or less so occupied to do their laundry activities can
patronize us. Also for company workers who their clothing are caught up with
stains like the construction company can see their clothing renewed.
Conceptualization
Current status
Most
individuals who are always so busy that looking good and smart is out of their
gender can thank Brahms laundry services because things will be done more
unique and better. For some others they prefer a particular cloth more
pleasing to them than the remaining
cloths of theirs but the uniqueness of our service will eventually make you
