What's in a name?

In a market where consumers are barraged by advertising and marketing campaigns delivering an onslaught of lifestyle and fashion messages, a brand name is a powerful weapon. Brands have become an increasingly significant factor in apparel and footwear. Many consumers have less time to shop and are spending their disposable income more carefully. Established brand names, with their quality image, make the shopping experience easier and faster for many consumers. For manufacturers, brands build consumer loyalty, which translates into repeat business.

Many established brand manufacturers, such as Tommy Hilfiger, Polo Ralph Lauren Corp., Jones Apparel, Liz Claiborne Inc., and Nautica Enterprises Inc., are leveraging their existing brand names by adding various accessory lines, such as sunglasses, watches, fragrances, wallets, and footwear. Jones Apparel's recent acquisition of shoe retailer Nine West Group Inc. was a strategic move aimed at broadening the company's product lines and creating opportunities to cross-sell products between the two brands. However, most companies choose to extend their product lines through licensing. Most recently, Tommy Hilfiger announced new licensing deals to market jewellery, hosiery and, most notably, watches through Movado.

A company with an impressive brand name must exercise caution when entering into licensing agreements. If a new product line doesn't live up to the quality standards that consumers have come to expect from the brand name, the brand's image can be tarnished. It remains to be seen how consumers will react to this onslaught of new brand name product introductions. To date consumers have embraced the extended product lines.

Competition and Buying Patterns

Although the apparel industry is mature and slow growing, it exists in a dynamic and competitive environment. In order to improve profitability, many companies are restructuring to create leaner organizations and adopt new technologies. Consolidation has been prevalent in this industry in the past few years, as larger companies gain leverage in market position and cost cutting. In the apparel industry, companies can operate as retailers or manufacturers (wholesalers) or both. For instance, Gap, Inc., a vertical retailer, manufactures and markets their own apparel and accessories. A company like VG Corporation is a manufacturer and sells solely to retail channels. A company like Tommy Hilfiger does both, selling its products to both retailers and consumers (through retail outlets).

The company's name, Sanya management consultancy private limited, is a competitive advantage in itself. The name is not attached to any particular group of customers and it allows entry into different segments of the industry. Another competitive advantage is the company's marketing strategy. Through the use of celebrities, advertising, promotion, and giveaways, the company is able to develop its presence in the market. Although the company uses retailers to sell its line, most of the marketing and advertising is done in-house.

Management Summary

The company's management philosophy is based on responsibility and mutual respect. Sanya management consultancy private limited has an environment and structure that encourages productivity and respect for customers and fellow employees.

Financial Plan

The company is seeking a substantial long-term business loan for the purpose of developing the clothing line. This funding will cover operating expenses and product development leading to the launch in July 2015.
