1. Executive Summary
The Apparel Industry has been seemingly proliferating with the growth. With economic
development there has been an increase in the private consumption and growth in
GDP; as the demand from the fashion and ready-to-wear industry has increased
significantly.
Both the global and European markets for branding and design are growing. Brands
owners are increasing their investments in measures intended to contribute to
strengthening their brands, in which labels, packaging and accessories are important
elements.
Wadhwa Group is a company in this industry offering apparels i.e. Shirts with a clear
focus on offering customer unique solutions that create added value.
The project is conducted to study the apparel industry to launch Wings Shirts in
Mumbai, the nature of research is primary and secondary. Primary data is collected
through survey questionnaire and secondary through Internet.
The study is undertaken to know which Brand of shirts consumers use and why. And
what are the factors consumers looks for, within what price range and when do they
shop. So that all the factors can be integrated and Wings can be launched accordingly.
This portrays the need of Wadhwa Group to develop its market through continued
optimization of its business structure and improve return on investments in India. The
aim of this project report is to make a feasibility report for Wings for its expected market
introduction in the Indian market.
2. Objective Of Project
An Overview
Increasing international competitiveness of India in the Apparel Sector has been for the
reason that its full supply chain – from a huge raw material supply to high quality
completed products, near to the ground labor costs and experience, entrepreneurship
and design skills which Chinese firms find difficult to match. The industry is also
extremely flexible – from flexible smaller firms presenting efficient solutions for smaller
orders to giant firms; having the ability to service the world‟s biggest buyers. The Indian
economy has also opened up to the outside world and foreign investment &
opportunities have increased due to changing government policies. New capacities are
being built, and competitiveness is improving as new technology and expanded
capacities are installed at a dramatic rate. Leading foreign retailers and apparel brands
are taking advantage of India‟s strengths as an alternative to China and other countries
for their sourcing requirements. This is being supplemented by the growth of the Indian
brands increasingly to high standards.
It has been estimated that India has approximately 30,000 readymade garment
manufacturing units and around 3 million people are working in the industry. these days,
not only is the garment export business growing but many leading Indian fashion
apparels are also coming up as major supplier of high quality fashion apparels and are
appreciated in major markets internationally. Consistent efforts towards extensive
market coverage, improving technical capabilities and putting together an attractive and
wide merchandise line has paid rich dividends. But till today, our clothing industry is
dominated by sub-contractors and consists mainly of small units of 50 to 60 machines.
India's supply base is medium quality, relatively high fashion, but small volume
business.
To cut a long story short, the Indian Textile & Apparel Industry should also go in for
systems integration to meet increased price competition, and increased pressure to
shorten the fashion cycle with shorter production cycles that will provide it greater
connectivity and visibility, and enable it to adjust to retailers' needs and provide value-
added services. Overall, the Indian Textile & Apparel Industry is proliferating at a rapid
rate.
For building Indian brands in global apparel market it is necessary for marketers to
increase the value of their products by branding. It is evident that there are still only a
few apparel exporters able to create a brand in the global market except the supply of
international buying houses or retail chains as per the specifications and designs
provided by the buyers putting apparels or brand name as stipulated by the buyer
wherein the exporters voluntarily hide their identity in the global market. Although, the
Indian apparel exporters do have the capability to produce as per the requirement of
global market, their main drawback lies in strategic thinking in creating their own brands.
Moreover, many global brands are also entering the Indian market, making Indian
brands clueless as to how to survive the competition. This situation necessitates the
marketers to strengthen their brands for their stay in the market. This might be possible
only when the marketers consider branding not as a set of activities, but as a strategic
thinking.
To compete in domestic as well as global market place in the long run, the marketers
must create and manage strong brands - vital in creating loyal customers which would
pose a formidable defense in the competitive market. Branding requires putting
conscious efforts to build the society‟s perceived value of the product based on
components such as reputation, experiential and symbolism.
In the close meshed matrix of value vs. volume in the polarized market, it is a strategic
Wings in the market providing it with sustainable competitive advantage is based on its
high value apparel and not much on controlled product low pricing.
The most critical factor behind the success of a firm is to classify its core identity
elements. Wings has several core assets that can be exploited to achieve future growth.
In view of the development of the core and extended identity of Wings it would prioritize
four criteria as (i) differentiating itself from competitors through ESP, (ii) resonating with
the target group – understanding the drive behind the customer‟s motive, (iii) reflecting
the strategy and culture of the business and (iv) Providing parity in attributes where
competitors have an advantage.
It is evident from the analysis, that the maximum profitability can be perceived with high
product price level and at the same time with increment in the volume of business. A
combination of the two in the right degree is a requirement as increase in volume helps
to attain economies of scale resulting in the decrease in direct costs and overheads
(working capital), also.
Therefore, Wings has to identify a sustainable competitive position. The first step
towards the vision shall be the main focus over the coming 2-3 years. During this
period, Wings would strive for a market position where:
• The production and logistics set-up is superior to that of smaller players in terms of:
Market Positioning
A firm‟s competitive advantage and its product‟s position depends much on how it is
defined by consumers on important attributes – the place the product or in totality the
company occupies in consumers‟ minds relative to competing products. Information
overloading makes it difficult for consumers to re-evaluate their buying decision every
time.
To simplify this product positioning based on a complex set of perceptions, impressions
and feelings for Wings - this report takes into consideration, the perceptual mapping that
Wings has done of itself.
“When absolute superiority is not attainable, you must produce a relative one at the
decisive point by making skillful use of what you have”
– Karl von Clausewitz, On War, 1832
2. Favorable market factors - For Wings the knowledge of local language, in contact
with manufacturer, and close location from clients sourcing base & of stock avoiding
long transport and quick dispatch and effective courier service are positive attributes.
3. Order Management - Maintenance of stock for the customers depending upon
forecasting of sales as no contracts exist between the clients and Wings on assured
agreements.
Finance
1. Banking Operation – Wings will open up its own banking operations and
transactions in Mumbai to reach the customers on time and make investments on
requirements, promptly without waiting for long dealings from the main office.
2. Reduced direct costs - Wings has improved the operating profits by reducing
fixed cost structure which has contributed to turn negative results into attractive
profit levels.
From the perspective of Wings it is evident that profitability and growth of the entire
organization would be reflected on it. Wings‟ market position is to some extent would be
similar on different geographical markets, and to some extent different on different
markets depending on the market factors and competences. This has help determine
the market positioning for Wings in particular.
As described earlier, the market is becoming increasingly polarized. The major players
are moving to the bottom right corner, and the smaller players find niches at the left.
Wings‟ current position will be somewhere in between. It has an attractive production
and logistics offer relative to the smaller players, but a significantly less business
volume than the major players in the Indian market.
It is also important to note the fragmented positioning of the Indian domestic apparel
producers. They are dispersed in the market considering their volume, strategy,
products & services. There are certain comparatively bigger players with established
production bases with varying level of product assortment depending on what clients it
serves. Many such companies are exporting to International retailers or supplying to
their local bases with high degree of value addition and brand management. Moreover,
they possess knowledge of the retailers and brands and render services to them
depending on the trends. There are some companies which are not big enough due to
lack of investment but are quite innovative and value adding for the Indian fashion
market. Others can be characterized as small or medium- sized enterprises (SME) with
low level of product diversification clustered in the left hand bottom segment of the
graph.
STRENGTHS
Capabilities
Wings is a potential apparel manufacturer on its way for market introduction in India. Its
true capabilities lie in its efficient service - sales, distribution, and stock management
with close alliance of its management teams.
Competitive advantages
Competitive advantage lies in the following ways:
o Thorough know how of the Indian market in terms of business ventures, product
requirements of the vendors, economic production system through better local
communication
o Less business and setup costs due to already developed infrastructure for local
production and distribution
Innovative aspects
Innovation is a major strength for Wings considering its new service developments in
apparel, total brand management, security and anti-counterfeit appareling. It has also
made sufficient advances in developing the versatility of its product range,
WEAKNESSES
Gaps in capabilities
Considering the relatively new business venture in the market there are certain
breaches in the functioning and business totality for Wings. These are pertaining to the
knowledge development of the local market for proper logistics and distribution though
the parent company is a veteran player in the Indian market.
Lack of competitive strength
o Anticipation of lack of market penetration due to developmental problems in the
initial stage
o Inability to reach the retailers and brands due to comparatively virgin presence in
the market – the big International apparel providers and Manufacturers like Arrow,
Parx, Allen Solly etc. have long term presence and setup in the Indian market with
own manufacturing bases too. This provides them an edge to sell at very
competitive market price and total control on the production management to alter
the manufacturing cost.
o Lesser brand Identity revelation due to initial stage of its business setup in India
Reputation, presence and reach
Wings is still not introduced in the Indian retail perspective chiefly because of (i) the
apparel industry is still in its initial stages due to the fact that nearly 95 per cent of the
Indian retail market is still unorganized and non-clustered (ii) Indian retailers go for their
branding internally for targeting the domestic market as they have better knowledge of
the market trend and target group preferences (iii) targeting the Indian upper market
would be costly and would enhance the product price – not profitable for targeting the
Indian this segment (iv) The big Indian Retailers‟ and brand owners‟ attempt to emerge
internationally could be supplemented by Wings‟s solution but that is still a tentative
prospect considering the scopes for expansion in the domestic market easier and still
substantial.
* More realistic would be to develop the business for the small and medium sized
Retailers and Brands trying to make an entry into the Indian market without proper set-
up bases and Indian market related trends in its product portfolio.
Timescales, deadlines and pressures
o Pressure on the apparel, packaging and accessories industry due to the quick, short
lived fashion change and retail boom resulting from GDP hike and increase in
private consumption.
o The increasing competition requires just-in time production. However, the lack of
own production facility can initially create production management and operational
problems.
o For capacity without stock the production time is long.
Financials & Cash-flow
Wings banking operations can sometimes be hindered due to increased capital
transaction processing time. This is subsequently because of comparatively lesser use
of internet banking facilities in India, still, and complexities related to multiple banking in
between – to be sorted out soon with opening of Wings India‟s own banking operations.
IT developments
The variable data solution – RIS (Retail Information System) of Wings needs to have an
upgraded version to ensure full control over current production, lead times and stock
balance. It needs to work on the IT security actively to prevent its impact on production
and deliveries. A frequent problem is the last minute changes incurred in the design –
which disturbs the production flow and planning. RFID and bar coding is still a
weakness for Wings in its product service offering.
Management cover, succession
Due to the relatively recent formation of Wings (2011), scopes for development of an
integrated management team is quite important. It is essential to develop Wings own
working management along with its introduction of the Indian business venture for
quicker policies and decisions, better knowledge of the trends and markets in close
collaboration with the Group‟s strategic framework.
OPPORTUNITIES
Market developments
o From local to global – Increased importance of India as a purchasing/sourcing
market for the European Retailers and brand owners of the fashion & clothing
industry. Many European enterprises are also making an attempt to venture out into
the Indian market.
o Ever more importance of the brands – Increased requirement of customer-unique
solutions based on broad offering and value-enhanced profiling for differentiating
themselves to survive the fierce competition. To have a unified profile, identity and
image for long term success and development high level of service and branding is
instrumental.
o Growth of the Indian Retail Industry – With boom in the Indian retail sector and
potential international emergence of the bigger brands it is required to have idea of
the global market trends and requirements. Branding and profiling for these
companies would be a tremendous opportunity for Wings India.
Competitors' vulnerabilities
Adding value to brand – Wings is anticipated to stand at a competitive edge as
compared to the various small local and big international players in the market.
Compared to the small domestic players in the Indian market – the local apparel
producers – Wings is poised to emerge into a apparel provider with diverse product
portfolio, designing concepts and is not just a supplier of apparels. It also has a strong
offering of branding and design and greater international presence. It is very essential
for Wings Group to maintain the same vision for its business introduction in Mumbai. As
compared to the bigger competitors in the industry, Wings is more focused on growth
based on value addition with large range of products and services to offer to shirts
rather than large scale production of bulk products.
Global influences
Changing market – Growth in GDP and private consumption has resulted in long-term
influence on the general economic development. This has influenced both low-price and
premium brands on investing more and more resources in differentiating themselves.
The increased significance of the brands means that there has been positive
development for branding and design which contributes to strengthening profiling and
increased sale.
New ESP's
Wings can develop new propositions as its selling points by concentrating more in its
research and product development. Scopes are discusses in the Enhancement of the
product portfolio in Product Development & Differentiation Strategy further in the report.
New markets
New market developments – both International and domestic stands out to be a major
opportunity for Wings. The Apparel Fashion Industry in Mumbai is having a major
economic growth due to several reasons and this is favorable for developing the
business prospects for Wings.
THREATS
Political & Legislative Effects
Political risks or threats are industry-specific. Certain external developments may pose
to affect adversely the commercial viability of Wings future investments and business
plans. Some of them are as follows:
o Slow government decisions, adverse changes or unpredictability on foreign
investment, import, ownership, pricing or tax issues
o Cultural problems, delays or legal disputes
o Disruption of normal business due to social, political or labor unrest and industrial
action
o Corruption and bureaucratic inefficiency
o Unexpected delays and cost-overruns due to overlapping governmental jurisdiction
Environmental effects
Directly, Wings is not responsible for polluting the environment but it has to look after
and constantly monitor the effect of the players in its long supply chain contributing
towards causing harm to the environment. Wings India particularly has to introspect the
printing process in its production base to ensure proper use of dyes and chemicals for
the printing purpose.
Competitor intentions
For comparatively newer business ventures and strategic introduction plans Wings is
anticipated to have diverse threats from the competitors. It is quite difficult for it to enter
into the Retail Sector by only providing the retail & brands with apparels. There are
threats from the raw material suppliers too for the increasing direct and indirect material
costs and also irregular and inappropriate logistics of material supply and its quality.
Forward integration of the suppliers into the supply chain to acquire apparel and
Apparel companies poses a major threat to Wings.
Market demand
Wings has to guarantee just-in-time delivery of products through efficient logistics and
distribution system, proper quality assurance, customer services and stock availability to
the customers whenever required to remain in the competition. This poses a threat to
Wings as it is still a small setup without its own manufacturing base and proper
knowledge of the India market trends, scenario and the quicker and short-lived changes
in the fashion industry.
Financial Risks
• Interest-rate risk – Interest-rate risk relates to the risk in the Group‟s exposure to the
changes in the market interest rate having a negative impact on the profit. During
centralized bank loans for investments prime the lending rate varies over the year
and this is a risk to the business transactions.
• Financing Risk – possible risk of financing the group‟s capital requirements and re-
financing of outstanding loans with the Wings principal bank.
• Credit risks – The risks of Wings „s customers not fulfilling their obligations, i.e.
Wings not receiving the payment of the trade receivables constitutes a customer
credit risk. Average credit term is nearly 120 days and sometimes there is potential
threat of not receiving the payments for the stocked products produced in
anticipation of the customer demand but not bought due to lack of a contract
agreement.
External Analysis
Country Factors
3. Infrastructure Risk
India's infrastructure risk is high with over-stretched port facilities and run down of road
and rail links with slow rate of progress. The power system is also a significant
hindrance to business due to poor financial position of the electricity supply companies.
This has in turn affected electricity generation, so that power supplies are erratic and
companies, offices and some private houses use their own back-up generating facilities.
Despite India's successes in information technology, computer and internet access is
not widespread.
2. Technology Factors
Due to the rapid change in technology related to product line and production facilities,
the first generation technology can become obsolete. This may result in sufficient
increase in cost structure requiring more research and development and considering
more switching costs.
Government/Economic Factors
2. Macroeconomic Risk
The main macroeconomic imbalance is on the fiscal side factored by the high oil prices
which have led to widening of the trade balance.
Consumer Factors
Competitive Risks
1. Overcrowding & Superior competitive entry
The most serious risk is that too many competitors are attracted by the growth situation
of the retail and apparel business in India which resulted in subsequent growth of the
Apparel business thus entering with unrealistic market share expectations. Another
reason for this has been because of the relatively lesser set-up and infrastructural cost
related to its development.
Internal Analysis
Logistics Risks
Logistic risks can be internal for Wings due to the inefficiency of its ERP database in
monitoring its sales, stock and distribution. This results in improper delivery to clients
with prolonged lead time. Joint ventures with sales and distribution company can on one
hand reduce the risk level and at the same time increase it as the external
transportation risks are now incorporated within the firm and needs additional
monitoring and management.
Economic/Financial Risks
Financial concerns in a huge market like India are a major concern for Wings. It has to
constantly look after mobilizing its working capital to invest in innovations related to
product, technique or allied services like sales, warehousing and distribution.
Considering the high rate of inflation in India, economic risk is foremost if not controlled.
It is quite evident that a global strategy can result in achieving sustainable competitive
advantage (SCA) considering several underlying motivations like obtaining scale of
economies, global brand association, global innovation, access to low-cost labor or
materials, access to national investment incentives, access to strategically important
markets and dodge trade barriers. However, the goal of achieving significant global
strategies is usually inhibited by local biases due to decentralized structure, fluctuations
in the local market related to market dynamics, segmentation, customer motivation and
culture.
In this perspective, Wings seeks to develop its business in line to the growth of Wings
worldwide with characterization of its business suiting the Mumbai perspective. Aim of
leadership for Wings must not force the company in developing a standardized business
strategy everywhere.
Lack of proper local communication may lead to unbalanced economies of scale for
Wings which caters the need to develop a proper strategic alliance with another
company to develop the operations for Wings. Secondly, the lack of people, information,
creativity or the execution skills pertaining to the market perspective is very essential for
Wings. Thirdly, a standardization of processes and products nationally also may not be
feasible or optimal due to several reasons like different market share positions, different
images and different customer motivations.
a. Recruit its own key sales personnel to advertise and sell its branding concept and
solution to the potential Indian brands and also locate new International brands
having sourcing base in India and spread its value addition concept.
b. Training and operational excellence programs for its sales and marketing team and
also identify channels of marketing in India, e.g. through trades and exhibitions
c. Focus on country specific effective collaboration into the RIS business. To expand
the business maintenance it would be essential to recruit more ERP/SAP trained
personnel into the Wings India team
It‟s being tried to structure a viable action plan with important contents for next three
develop a vision for next three years highlighting some crucial aspects not only for a
new market but to construct company‟s strategic business plan. This plan might be
difficult to work with because many important aspects need to be organized and
Pricing Strategy
According to the Price Comparison Study and the Price Strategy Matrix as shown in the
exhibit 4, Wings India is evidently positioned in the Penetration Pricing zone. However,
building up its competitive edge considerably, it can attempt to move into the premium
pricing zone of offering comparatively higher price for its value added branding and
designing concepts, solutions and products. This is quite essential to build up profit
margin.
b. Price Discrimination - Wings must offer the same competency and product at a
lower price, initially, to capture the new market – for new customers. At least it can
offer lower pricing for solutions it aims to provide to its potential new Indian
customers aiming lesser profit margin – essential for market penetration.
c. Price Cutting - Wings must focus on development of solutions that require less
engineering costs and more efficiency, while at the same time lower in cost of

would like to tap by providing Branded shirts at the price expected by customers.
The company will face intense competition from National and International brands like
Apple Plus, Vanford, Cambridge, Van Heusen, John Players & Peter England. But it will
require continuous effort in Marketing, R&D, and Operations on part of Wings to
compete with such settled brands. Wings will have to constantly come up with new and
innovative design and marketing schemes for its consumers.
The country with festivals coming almost every month provides Wings with good
opportunity to target people making purchases during festivals seasons. And further
Wings must come up with new designs, color shades of shirts which provide comfort to
customers.
10. SYNOPSIS
Research Objective
The clear cut objective behind this research is to do an empirical study on Apparel
industry in India especially Mumbai and then conduct a feasibility study to check the
viability of launching a new brand of shirts. This study would help me decide whether I
should launch my brand or not by understanding and studying the competitors in this
very desired industry.
Research Methodology
This research conducted consists of both primary and secondary research, the aim is to
understand the competitors and expectation of customers in the shirt market.
The Indian apparel industry, which took off in the mid 60s, is worth around $18 billion
now. The growth over the years has been significant, and technology does have a role
to play in that. In fact, the industry has evolved gradually in terms of technology
adoption and has reached a critical mass today.
To give the buyers the freedom of choice, the Apparel and Fashion industry of Mumbai
operates through an attractive chain of retails stores, shopping malls, superstores and
multiplexes. From the funky style accessories to branded eastern and western wear, the
shopping centers of Mumbai are known to have an innumerable array of fashion
products.
The prompt following up of the newest trend in the Fashion world and a very affordable
price tag are the two prime factors that go a long way in making Mumbai the abode of
style apparels. The city is popular for both expensive multi-storied complexes as well as
cheap road-side shopping corners.
As the global companies vie to have a place in the heart of Mumbai, the city continues
to celebrate the carnival of Fashion through its enticing string of Apparels and Fashion
stores. Since, Mumbai can be said to be the Fashion Capital of India, I would like to
conduct a feasibility study for launching my brand of shirts with special emphasis on
Mumbai region.
