Dear
Our profit ranged from 0 to 300%, some item totally “no gain no loss”.
But now I think good packed milk is available, one needs to start not from the milk.
Start form “Chukki Ata” and free samples of milk and other items will put the business on track.
The trick is the home delivery, the purity, the promptness in delivery, the quantity keep up, the attitude of porters towards the clients and most importantly NO salary at all. Share in the profit.
We had only a little posh area in Islamabad available for our business back in late 80’s but now sky is the limit, The Defense townships, BT, Fizaia, you name it I got it.
I think if one is looking to start from the “Ata business”, in Rawalpindi/Islamabad, the first step may be to take a plot in Rawat Industrial estate (15 Lacs, good plot). Work out the cost of a small Silo for at least 500 Mond’s (I need to work out cost, for mine). Solar cell unit (5 lacs) to keep Silo’s exhaust and lights running. Fax, phone, and call recording, Internet connection. A UPS for communication equipment back up, “Chukki Units (10 lacs)”, a good research in the local grain market for the best quality wheat delivery without interruption throughout the year, nicely printed bags, bicycles, Suzuki Vans and All certificates from ministry of food, production and whatever required to do a legal business. |
