1.Executive summary:

Best deliveries agency is first of its kind in providing delivery boys to retail

stores and restaurants owners. The mission of the agency is to help the retail store

keeper and restaurant owners in delivering satisfaction to their customers. Best

Deliveries Company is an agency which provides delivery boys to retail shops,

restaurants and other required business. There is large demand for delivery boys in

the retail and restaurant market. Generally the need of number of such delivery boys

on weekdays and weekends differ. Also, for giving this home delivery services eitherthey have to send their people during rush hours or unnecessarily keep additional

people for delivery purpose during weekdays when there is not much demand. So,

there is great market for this service in India as number of shops and restaurants

providing this home delivery services are increasing.

Best Deliveries Company provides delivery boys along with vehicles to the

shops as per their monthly requirements. The potential market for are this agency are

mainly retailers and restaurant owners as shown by the market research .The target

market is the segment of business present in market which provides home delivery

services to their customers.

2. Situational Analysis :

Best Deliveries, based in Coimbatore. We are going to supply persons to retail

outlets and restaurants for delivering their products to customers. At present they are

using their own persons for this purpose. But the fact is that they are not having door

delivery orders frequently, so the salary they are giving to the delivery persons are

more comparing to the work the delivery persons are doing. Some shops even dont

have door delivery option, so they are likely to loose their customers. So we are

providing them delivery persons at a comparatively lower cost.

2.1 Market summary:

The market research was conducted among the different restaurant and retailoutlet owners across the city. This has helped us in identifying the target customers

and the preferred charge for the service. The survey has also helped us in analyzing

the need for our service in the market.

2.1.1 Market demographics:

The immediate focus will be on the tapping the potential market i.e. existing

restaurants and retail outlets. There are around 14 restaurants and 20 retail outlets.The present market for us as per survey is shown in the chart below.

6/31

The geographical characteristics of Coimbatore city is not of a hilly nature so we dont

have to opt for heavy powered vehicles like jeeps and SUVs. Other than this, the traffic in

Coimbatore city is not so dense during day time. Since most of our retail delivery will be in

noon time, we dont have to take traffic for consideration. But for restaurant deliveries and

some retail deliveries which will be at morning or evening time we are taking traffic in to

account.

2.2 SWOT analysis:

2.2.1 Strengths

Organized as well as unorganized retail industry in Indias booming.

Trend of giving more importance to comfort rather than money.

Boom in economy and inceased purchase power of people which our

customers(retail store keepers and restaurant owners) want to avail

Since we are taking delivery items and deliver them on time, there is no need

of warehouse or inventory maintenance. Therefore there is no cost for getting

stockroom and maintenance charges.

Since we are first in market, we have no direct competition. So chance of

positioning our service is more.

2.2.2 Weakness

Around 40% of our present market is having their own delivery system; we

have to give our service at a cost lower than their own delivery system.

Time taken for delivery should be as low as possible. For this we have to have

more delivery persons and vehicles which will incur more cost.

2.2.3 Opportunities

At present we are only concentrating on retail outlets only. But there are also

opportunities for extending our service to caterings, showrooms and agencies like

cooking gas, couriers, etc.

6


7/31

2.2.4 Threats Since transportation is the vital part of our business, the unstable petroleum

charges will make us difficult to set the charges for our customers, which is a

major threat.

There may be chances for increasing competition in future.

Liability claims because of damages caused by delivery persons will also be a

threat.

2.3 Competition

From the market research we found thatat present there is no direct competitors

who are providing this service in Coimbatore city. But the indirect competition is

from the retail outlets and restaurants that are having their own delivery system. But

in due course of time there are possibilities of having direct competition.

2.4 Services

Primarily our service is to provide delivery persons for retail outlets and

restaurants. We will send the persons with delivery vehicles to their respective shops

where they load the items to be delivered in the vehicle and deliver it to the respective

places. We charge the shops monthly according to the number of services provided,

number/weight of items delivered, and distance of delivery.

2.5 Key to success

Providing good quality of service.

Providing it in a reasonable low price.

Providing flexibility in demanding the number of delivery boys.

Efficient utilization of vehicles like covering all the deliveries in a particular

area at a stretch.

Careful selection of delivery persons and train them to handle both driving

and delivery.

7


8/31

2.6 Critical issues

If the customer needs an urgent delivery, then we have to send persons

specifically for that, which will take more cost. But we cant charge the customers

separately for that.

The critical issue is that for restaurants there is chance having more deliveries

of this kind. So we have to tackle that situation.

2.7 Channels

The road is the major channel we are using for delivery of the services. For this we

have to have good delivery vehicles both three wheelers and two wheelers. Other than

this the communication channel we are using is telephone both landline and mobile.

For advertising purpose we can use local cable TV, paintings on our delivery

vehicles, etc. as channels.

2.8 Macro-environment

Now the trend is that both persons in the family are working. So they dont

have time to buy the monthly groceries and they are giving telephone orders

to retail outlets. So there is a increase in the number of door deliveries in retail

outlets.

For parties and functions conducted, peoples are no more making the food by

their own. They are making orders to restaurants.

If there is a fall in entire economy, it will affect our business because total

purchasing power of people will go down.

Governmental policies regarding petroleum prices, regulations regarding

vehicles usage for commercial purpose, city traffic rules regarding movement

of vehicles inside the city will have an effect on our business.

In a span of three years, we expect the following changes

Newly added fixed investments:

Total monthly expenses = Rs. 55400

MONTHLY INCOME:

Number of customers: 15Fixed charges from each company Rs. 5000

Variable charges-

We plan to collect Rs.2 per kilometre the delivery boys travel for that company.

Variable charges = (35*5+ 50*2) * 2 * 10 * 4 = 22000.

Total income = fixed income + variable income

20


21/31

= 5000 * 15 + 22000

= Rs. 97000

PROFIT FOR THIS YEAR:Total profit per month:

Excluding initial investments,

Profit = monthly income monthly expenses

= 97000 55400

= Rs. 41600

Net profit per year:

Gross profit per year = 41600 * 12 = 499200

Tax = 30% of gross profit

= 30% * 499200

= Rs. 994210.

The breakeven point is found by dividing the initial investments by the net profit after

tax per month.

Breakeven point = initial investment / net profit per month

=994210/29120

= 34 months(approx 2.8 more years)

Marketing Organization

Our marketing manager Deepa Bharati will be responsible for all our marketing

activities.

Implementation milestones - Best delivery agency

The best delivery agency has clearly defined its strategies on operating or

commencement as stated above. Very clear estimates of our most important activities

such as advertising, transportation for our promotion i.e. the fund allocation we haveintended for the same have been stated in clear terms.

By no measure will the best delivery agency surpass these estimates as

they also include provisions for special expenses, in case of unforeseen demand

trends. We have arrived at these estimates, not without the use of these forecasting

techniques, namely-trend analysis & statistical data analysis, with the aid of our

experts Cyriac & Ranjani (internal management).

Thorough experiments through spread sheet modeling & evaluation of

alternative approaches have been undertaken to cover. The areas of demand, price

forecasting, production variables-in the organizations whose needs we cater to, as

well as our own agency at large.

Within a year of starting up, we intend to be well established and growing at a

steady/stable rate. In three years, we hope to achieve a customer base of at least 15, as

inferred from current market trend analysis. Beyond this period too, we never intend

23


24/31

any Premium pricing & will continue to be a reasonably priced delivery agency.

Owing to which our focus is premium quality & not premium pricing.

Task allocation & designation have already been carried out, bearing in mind

all our objectives & plans. Advertising modes are distribution of hand bills, radio

shows & railway reservation forms etc...

The pre created data tables & analysis both quantitative & qualitative are the ones

serving as our guiding milestones, as they are backed by our knowledgeable, keen

management.

Reserves of all our surpluses and profits will be maintained, which we will use

for expansion & improvement, not before a stipulated time period of one & a half

years of successful operations, before such developmental activities. Beyond this

period, we hope to expand our activities to Goa, Bangalore & Cochin.(key reasons for

these choices to name a few are selective human resource requirements & time bound

life-styles.)

Since quality determination of deliveries is a subtler & keener issue-we will

have frequent brain-storming sessions (for betterment strategies) & quality circles as

well. To ensure that we deliver & commit ourselves to the best possible performance,

employee reward schemes, 7% increment strategy(for a few select service

providers),employee privilege card issues are some plans we will positively

implement. Management will decide on the frequency & criteria for the above.

Management complacence will be discouraged as everyone will be expected

to deliver a minimum output (intellectual/any other) of at least 60 hours of productive

task management, a week.

Whenever we formulate goals, penalties are certainly imposed for deviations

from goals (by way of points) in the best interests of customers, creditors & our

agency. This will check deviations & corrective measures maybe sought as an

alternative.

6. Additional Considerations

24


25/31

Apart from the assumptions made previously, there are also some considerations to be

taken care of. These include some internal as well as external factor which has

potential to affect the business.

Internal factors:

If the delivery boys meet any accident then the compensation and the loss due

to damage of vehicle (depending upon the extent of damage) has to be

considered because this has potential to affect the rapport as well as the

financial activity of the agency.

Misconduct and deviant work place behaviour by the delivery boys is also the

major area of considerations.

External factors:

Fuel price hike is the major area of concern which is external to the agency.

Change in government rules and regulations like change in policy regarding

issue of driving license.

Chance of economic regression in future

Entry of other market players Increase in price of the vehicles due to tax increase by government.

There are also some other considerations also to take care of if there is problem in

assumptions based on the market research. The major concern is the choice of our

customer to have shared responsibility delivery boys and not the dedicated ones. In

that case there is chance of decrease in our potential market. Also, if because of any

internal issues, our customers decide to give up the idea of providing delivery

services or limit the area in which they will provide the service will affect delivery

agencies business.
