MARKET SEGMENTATION
The market segmentation is divided into the leading target
markets. The division reflects the differences in marketing strategythat will be used to target each different market.
The people who follow trends
Older adults who simply have good taste and a sense of style.
Wealthier college students.
Still fashionable senior citizens.
TARGET MARKET SEGMENT STRATEGY
The fabric industry, particularly the upscale markets, is growing
faster than ever. Potential fabric buyers are willing to spend
moderate to high amounts on garments because they can make the
customer look good - and hence feel good about them. In addition,
customers will see the inherent value in the fabrics.
The upscale niche market that APPSS has targeted is competitivebecause of the competitors and the discerning consumers it serves.
However, the competition is based more on quality than price
unlike the discount market.
MARKET NEED
The upscale Garment industry is currently in a growth period, so
now is an ideal time for entry.

MARKET TRENDS
1. The cost of marketing the new product is expected to be
the biggest challenge for APPSS. The initial use of
distribution channel will allow for cost savings.
2. The lack of an existing recognized brand name will be an
initial problem, but in a few years APPSS FABRICS
intends to have achieved powerful brand equity -
allowing it to rely on, and succeed because of its brand
name.
MARKET GROWTH
The leading competitor is Saqlain Exports, Lucknow.
Consumers often only buy new FABRICS every 5 to 10
MONTHS, yet they purchase them often as gifts. Therefore,
advertising will be increased during the Eid holidays.
The intended retail outlets are full price and full service, therefore
APPSS will not need to use an extreme price penetration strategy
to gain a foothold in the market.
MAIN COMPETITORS
Our main competitor is Saqlain Exports, Lucknow.
Our next closest competitor is MODELAMA EXPORTS,
GURGAON.
-
8/8/2019 Appss Export House

Both of these firms have strong brand equity, but there is room in
this market for a new company as brand loyalty is not high on
potential consumers' reasons for purchasing.

Projected profit and loss:-We expect losses in the first few months, because it will take time
for the store to build momentum and generate traffic. However,
once sales increase, the results are positive because many of the
other expenses will remain fixed. In fact, we expect that sample
inventory costs will actually go down in years to come. Some rawmaterial suppliers will provide raw material at deep discounts once
good credit terms are established.

PORTERS FIVE FORCE MODEL
1. RIVALARY AMONG EXISTING FIRMS:As there are many firms and export houses who
are also deals in exporting chicken suits like
Saqlain creations in Lucknow and modelama
exports in Gurgaon and they export chicken suits
and other products to US, UAE and other
countries.
2. THREAT OF NEW ENTRANT:
In future if the exporting firms or export houses
plans to expand their business and start dealing
in same countries in which we are dealing, then
it will be a threat to us. Also the new export
houses can target the same product in the same
countries.
3. THREAT OF SUBSITUTES:
Threat of substitute can be garments with stud
work, cotton embroidery, can be garments in
other fabrics etc.
4. BARGAINING POWER OF BUYER:As per our information we are the only exporters
of chicken suits fabrics in these countries. Other
exporters are dealing or exporting medicines, oil
-

wool, food product etc. The barging power of
buyer is less in our case.
5. BARGAINING POWER OF SUPPLIER:
As we are the only exporters of chicken suits
garments and until and unless there is no
substitute in market we have more barging
power.
