INTRODUCTION TO SMEDA

The Small and Medium Enterprise Development Authority (SMEDA) was established
with the objective to provide fresh impetus to the economy through the launch of an
aggressive SME support program.
Since its inception in October 1998, SMEDA adopted a sectoral SME development
approach where key sectors were selected on the criterion of SME presence. In depth
research was conducted and comprehensive development plans were formulated after
identification of impediments and retardants. The all-encompassing sectoral development
strategy involved overhauling of the regulatory environment by taking into consideration
other important aspects including finance, marketing, technology and human resource
development.
SMEDA has so far successfully formulated strategies for key sectors including, Fruits &
Vegetables, Marble & Granite, Gems & Jewelry, Marine Fisheries, Leather & Footwear,
Textiles, Surgical Instruments, Transport and Dairy. Whereas the task of SME
development at a broader scale still requires more coverage and enhanced reach in terms
of SMEDAs areas of operation.
Along with the sectoral focus a broad spectrum of Business Development Services is also
being offered to the SMEs by SMEDA. These services include identification of viable
business opportunities for potential SME investors. In order to facilitate these investors,
SMEDA provides Help Desk Services as well as development of project specific
documents. These documents consist of information required to make well researched
investment decisions. Pre-feasibility Studies and Business Plan Development are some of
the services provided to enhance the capacity of individual SMEs to capitalize on viable
business opportunities.

PROJECT BRIEF

Towel is an important product used in every day life. Towels and its allied products
constitute an important sector of textile industry. In made ups, towels sub-sector is the
second largest after bedwear in terms of production and exports. Towels are
manufactured in various sizes, shapes and qualities depending upon customers
requirements.
The proposed project is for setting up a Towels Manufacturing Unit. This will be a
vertically integrated unit including the facility of weaving, dyeing, finishing and
stitching. Most of its production will be for export purpose as this is an export-oriented
order based industry, hence contributing towards the earnings of foreign exchange for the
country. There is a vast range of towel products like towels, terry towels, warp pile

PREF-63/January2007/ Rev 2

Pre-Feasibility Study

Cotton Towels Manufacturing Unit

fabric, dish cloth, wash cloth, floor cloth, bar mops, bathrobes, bath mats, dusters, kitchen
towels etc. All the calculations and financial workings have been done while treating this
as an export based project.
The yarn used in the production of towels is 10/s, 16/s and 20/s cotton, polyester/cotton
yarn is also used to increase the strength of the product. Pakistan Towel Industry
produces a complete range of towels which include hand towels, bath towels, face towels,
kitchen towels, wash cloths, etc., available in rich assortment of patterns and designs in
eye-catching colors. The towel manufacturers in Pakistan also produce a large range of
allied products of towels including, terry bar mops, terry bathrobes, terry face towels,
terry wash cloths, shop towels, terry gloves, terry pillow covers, terry coverlets and all
other terry made-ups as desired by the buyers.
3. 1

Opportunity Rationale

Exports of towel products from Pakistan constitute a major share of the world market.
Pakistan has approximately 8% share in the world market of towel products1. The annual
average growth rate in the value of exports from Pakistan in the recent five years has
been 8% for towels2.
The international demand for towels is increasing at a fast rate due to the reasons that
European Union has recently withdrawn duties from Pakistan and also due to the
population trends resulting into increase in consumption of related products.
Pakistans largest market is USA, about two third of Pakistani exporters provide towels to
USA3. More than 50% of world exports of towels come from Asia. The market share of
Asia in world exports is increasing due to lower labor costs. Pakistan has a good share in
exports from Asia. The availability of suitable raw material and development of certain
skill levels are the favoring factors for further establishment of Towel industry in the
country. Towels of Pakistan have won the appreciation of customers all over the world.
Jacquard towels, woven with double yarn in floral patterns and rich colors, speak
volumes for their excellent craftsmanship. Beautiful, absorbent, smooth, white and dyed
Pakistani towels are exported to Europe, United States, Canada and to all other countries
earning substantial foreign exchange for the country.
3. 2

Proposed Capacity

The proposed capacity of this unit is 20 looms producing 150 tons of towels per annum
based on daily two shifts of 8 hours for 300 days. This unit has the capability for
horizontal as well as vertical integration.
3. 3

Total Project Cost

The total project cost of this Cotton Towel Manufacturing unit is Rs. 38.9 million.

Most of the towel industry is classified as constituted of small and medium sized units
having smaller productions, and mostly manufacturers do not have complete processing
facilities. The woven towel is sent to independent processing units. This reduces the
capital cost of the manufacturers, but at the same time, increases the quality cost. Quality
control becomes very difficult when processing is sub-contracted. The decision to
establish an in-house processing facility is supported by the fact that orders that a
manufacturer gets from buyers are in line with the manufacturing capabilities, so there is
a need to invest in modern processing facilities. Since this is an export-oriented industry,
so quality is the most important tool that a manufacturer can use to achieve good price
and market share of its product through the modern processing facilities. For a new
entrant, it may be difficult to fetch orders without any proper production facility.
Another important processing step is drying. Since the weight per unit area is higher for a
towel as compared to other woven fabrics, so drying time is relatively higher. Majority of
the manufacturers uses atmospheric drying in the sunlight. Large manufacturers have
their own hydroextractors that improve the quality of their final product. Due to the
quality issues, a hydroextractor has been recommended for this project.
Final operation is cutting and stitching. This is fairly a simple operation and does not
require much expertise. There are no major technology issues in this operation of towel
manufacturing.
A complete towels unit with looms and dyeing section has been recommended instead of
outsourcing some of the processing functions. According to industry sources, it is
difficult to get the production processed on regular basis from other units because the
unit, which is giving good quality, usually remains busy. Outsourcing results into
increased costs of production hence reducing profits. Most of the export-oriented units in
the country have their own processing facilities.

CURRENT INDUSTRY STRUCTURE

The Towel Industry of Pakistan comprises of approximately 300 manufacturers and


exporters with a diverse range of towel products. The towel industry relies largely on
locally manufactured machines to produce products that have a good demand in the
international market. Pakistani exporters have been able to sell towel products on
competitive prices and have made considerable progress in terms of value addition and
quality issues over the last 10 years. The exports of towel and allied products have
increased substantially despite the stagnation in countrys exports. Following is the
geographical split of manufacturers and exporters in Pakistan:

It is obvious from the above table that major concentration of this industry is in the
southern region of the country. This is due to the initial development of industry in
Karachi and the fact that manufacturers can avoid transportation costs from
manufacturing units to ports. In addition, many imported chemicals used in dyeing
process are available at lower prices in Karachi. This industry is characterized by
majority of the manufacturers and exporters located in few major cities.
The above manufacturers and exporters of towels products have diverse production
facilities ranging from complete vertically integrated units, to stitching units, from
weaving units to dyeing units, etc. A few are also working as commercial exporters
without any production facility.
According to the estimates given by industry sources, approximately 90% of the revenues
generated by this industry are from exports while 5% of the rejected exports are sold in
the local market, and remaining 5% comes from local requirements.

MARKETING

In view of the fact that main raw material and skilled manpower is available in Pakistan,
the scope for towel exports from Pakistan is unlimited. However, marketing is a very
vital aspect of this industry as this is an export oriented order based industry.
Export orders can be obtained through direct marketing in the international markets either
by initiating contacts with potential customers through formal communications or visiting
those countries especially USA, Europe and Gulf countries. The Towel Manufacturers
Association of Pakistan (TMAP) is well organized and has an impeccable record in its
conduct and administration of textile quota and trade fairs. It participates in Heim
Textile Fair regularly and organizes space for its members. However, in the absence of
export orders, other factories that have excess export orders can also provide subcontract
work on CMT (cut, make and trim) basis.
TMAP is also involved in getting latest trade inquiries raised from various countries; the
members can also obtain this information to focus their marketing efforts on target
countries.

Guidelines for Towels Export Business- Key Success Factors

To enter in the export business of towels, following basic guidelines can provide help to
any new entrant in this business:
1. Ensure good quality at all costs. This is a basic key for a successful exporter.
Therefore, quality issues should be the primary focus. In this respect, a quality
certification can be very helpful in marketing the quality issues related to towels
products. Although, the stress on quality in this industry is not as important as in any
other textile based industry, like, polo shirts, bed sheets, curtains etc. However, a

certification like ISO 9000 can be helpful in obtaining orders and building an
impression in the eyes of buyers.
Commitments with buyers regarding quality, price and shipment are the basic
essentials to enter and grow in the export business.
Many towel-manufacturing companies are considering it worthwhile setting up their
overseas offices and warehouses. Overseas office can not only assist in sales, but also
keep the exporter continuously informed about the latest buyer's requirements and
market demands. Warehouses of supplier(s) in the customer's countries make it
convenient for the customer to make the purchase decisions effectively, as in this case
customer gets the required products on LDP (Landed Duty Paid) basis and without
any hassle of being involved in shipment and import procedures.
It is very important in successful marketing to be active and quickly responsive to the
customer demands. Being flexible with buyers regarding their requests and
requirements can help to develop mutual understandings with them.
Participation in trade fairs is very helpful in knowing customers requirements and
obtaining orders. International Trade Fairs provide an excellent opportunity to
introduce a new entrant in the international markets.
Total Market Size and Growth

Total global trade value of Towel products is more than US$ 4.0 billion. Cotton Towels
have a substantial share in the total exports of Towel and related products.6

10.2 Estimated Time for Project Completion

1 months for completion of initial formalities i.e. formation, registration of the


company etc.
10 months for purchase of land and construction of building.
3 months for sanction of loan (In case, if financing has to be arranged through bank).
4 month for purchase of machinery, its installation and trial run.
1 month for furnishing and staff / labor appointments.
The projects can take-off within one year, as some of the activities will be in progress
simultaneously.
In case if the project is self financed, if the building is rented and if machinery is also
locally procured then this set-up will not take more then 6 months.

11 KEY SUCCESS FACTORS


The total commercial viability of this proposed towels unit depends on the regular supply
of export orders. This requires aggressive marketing efforts at the entrepreneur's end and
the concerned management team. A detailed discussion on the marketing aspect has
already been done in the marketing section of this study.
Comparing Pakistans major importers with the worlds major importers, Pakistan is
completely out of sync with the world market mix. The countries of Middle East are not
included in list of major importers. USA is the largest importer but only 1-2 % of
Pakistans total exports is going to USA. Pakistan does not have any major exports to
markets like Japan, Hong Kong, Germany and France. There is an opportunity for the
Pakistani towels products manufacturers and exporters that they should target these
markets and get Pakistan its due share.
Following are other key points that can be taken as key success factors for any export
based towels unit.
Outlets in Gulf countries
Assurance of consistent good quality
Surety of on time delivery
Competitive rates
Cost efficiency
Better services to the customer i.e. claim settlement etc.
Better communication development with customers

12 THREATS FOR THE BUSINESS

Close competition among local exporters causes reduction in prices of the orders in
process.

The labor force at the lowest level i.e. skilled / semi-skilled manpower, machine
operators are quite unorganized. Their job behaviors and seriousness about the
completion of any assigned job are always unpredictable; however, a motivated
Production Supervisor can overcome this.
Non-availability of technical personnel especially for dyeing, processing and
finishing.

In case of CMT based unit, the requirement of credit and/or delay of payments from
customers might cause disturbance in the cash cycles.

13 REGULATIONS

As such no special regulation is applicable on this industry except the normal


industrial rules and regulations. It does not require any prior sanction/approval from
the government to establish a Towels industry as a whole except for installation of
boiler.

Being the export-based unit, government offers incentives in terms of treating exports
as zero-rated for sales tax, tax rebates at the rate of 3% and re-finance facilities.

Towels Manufacturers Association of Pakistan (TMAP) is the administrative body in


Pakistan with the primary objective to safeguard the interests of exporters and
manufacturers in Pakistan. Moreover, every export shipment is verified by TMAP in
order to enable the exporter to claim tax rebate from the Government.
The advantages of being registered with TMAP are:
1. The first hand knowledge of international trade inquiries,
2. Prompt awareness of any changes in Government policies, and
3. A platform for manufacturers and exporters to share knowledge and experience.
4. A platform for manufacturers and exporters to discuss any unwanted change in
the Government policies and to solve individual problem of any manufacturers.
