Introduction
A business plan clearly sets out the objectives of business (the self-sufficient school). It states exactly how the business intends to operate and how it will become profitable. A good business plan will keep anyone focused on his objectives. It will help him plan for the future, because he will have already planned his activities. It will lay down a budget and predict future cash-flow so that he will stay on-track in his drive towards the goal of a self-sufficient school. It will also help someone identify areas that he might have overlooked or areas that require more thought and planning.
Executive Summary
General
The Bangladeshi economy is highly dependent on the import of goods and services to meet the domestic demands in the country. A large component of the imports consists of a variety of food products, ranging from agricultural products, canned goods and poultry. As a result, the government has been on a constant lookout for ways to negate this dependency and become self-sufficient. Poultry farming was introduced to serve this purpose. The proposed business model in this document has many similarities to various poultry firm. The plan emphasizes on the importance of the eggs produced at the poultry farm be of premium quality and that it should clearly differentiate itself with its larger size and weight. The major market that has been identified for the purpose of this study is the domestic market. The reason being that a product of this nature should ideally command a premium price to generate a reasonable return on the investment. The importance of a sound management and adhering to fundamental business principles is also highlighted. The plan identifies the high investment cost and the high cost of chicken feed as the biggest impediment for the success of the proposed poultry farm.

Business plan- 6
Conduct an effective marketing and promotions strategy. Products to be delivered to the distributors in pristine condition without damage to the eggs. That wholesale prices remain constant for a reasonable period of time in order to gain the confidence of distributors. Utilization of appropriate and efficient equipment to meet the set objectives. Keeping the eggs fresh through proper storage and handling. Trained manager and employees working on the production lines. Effective coordination, communication and relationship management with sponsors/lending/aid agencies and other stake holders. Accessibility and responsiveness to the needs of the customers.
SWOT Analysis
Strengths
Competitive price Transport costs are lower as opposed to transport costs of imported poultry products Being a labor-intensive activity, it can provide employment opportunities for women and youth in the local area, which will attract support from the stakeholders Close coordination ensure that the needs of the local community are considered when the infrastructure is developed and the operations are carried out.
Weaknesses
High cost of imported chicken feed in the absence of locally produced feed. Properly establishing and operating poultry units require high startup costs, especially for setting up of the layer house and the rearing house. Intensive training will be required to generate awareness and stress the importance of appropriate operational techniques and procedures
Business plan- 7
Limited information available on trade and marketing on the locally produced poultry products Lack of infrastructure due to limited rearing units and laying units
Opportunities
There is a high demand for eggs. Expanding egg production units could lead to economies of scale Fresher and more convenient than importing Labor availability due to high unemployment levels among women and youth in local areas Easier for community owned and managed businesses to attract funding and technical assistance from aid agencies.
Threats
Disease outbreaks may threaten the quality and supply of stock and finished goods Inflationary factors which may drive up the investment and operational costs (especially the cost of feed) may not make the farm financially sustainable Inability to achieve economies of scale may limit the ability to improve efficiency Competition from other poultry production units in the long run could be a possibility Inefficient management practices could turn what would be a lucrative, sustainable economic activity into an inefficient project causing economic and financial losses.

The Product
The eggs produced at the poultry farm should be of premium quality and shall differentiate itself with its larger size and weight. The eggs produced in the farm will be of 60g per egg compared to common imported white eggs of 45g per egg. The eggs will be produced in an environmentally friendly manner. The price of the eggs will be competitive considering the high quality and freshness of the eggs in comparison to the price of imported eggs of the same quality. The proposed farm will have the capacity to produce 250 eggs per day, and eggs shall be sold to the market at BDT 8 per egg in the first year of operations. To ensure a non-stop stable supply of eggs to its customers, one rearing house and another layer houses (26' x 36' each) shall serve to maintain a continuous supply.
Competitors
Once the product is introduced, small businesses which are more organized in this kind of production and distribution may see the opportunity and seize it before the product is firmly established in the target markets. Other forms of competition will emerge from importers of similar size and similar quality eggs. However, the key target market for the locally produced eggs would normally be high quality local produce. Hence, competition will be limited and prospects for locally produced eggs are expected to remain good.
The Management
Training & Development
The management should always inspire and respect the employees by recognizing their merit. It should always be the managements belief that employees should be adeq uately trained and compensated. Personnel training and remuneration should be regularly reviewed to keep up with market developments and to keep staff motivated. Competition in the long run can affect

staff turnover and hence sufficient emphasis on staff training is critical to maintain stability in the operations.
Target Market
Market analysis
Bangladesh is an over populated country. So, there is no equilibrium between demand and supply and more or less suppliers fail to satisfy the customers. Most of all, in food business if it is daily product there is no loss. So there is a great prospect being succeeded. Each and every people need chickens and eggs. Eggs are the ingredients of cake, bread, omelet etc. So restaurant, bakery, hotel, community centers needs eggs and chickens every day. As the different customers have high demand of chickens and eggs we have a high prospect of success.
Market Needs
The target market prefers premium quality eggs whose origins are familiar to them. Quality, fresh produce coming from known environments have an edge over similar products imported from unfamiliar producers.
Business plan- 11
The concept of 'ethical purchasing' and 'positive buying' would be an important driving force in making purchasing decisions at high end resorts. The facts that the eggs purchased contribute to job creation in the community and empowerment of women or contribute to the betterment of other disadvantaged people are very important factors taken into consideration in the target market.
Pricing
Pricing for the eggs should ideally be market driven based on the weight of the egg and the targeted market segment. Its pricing structure should be based upon the targeted clientele and a survey of egg suppliers and their prices in Bangladesh. For the purposes of this study, we have assumed the tourist market as the key market and estimated a selling price of BDT 8 per egg in the initial year of production. The price of the eggs are highly competitive considering the high quality and freshness of the eggs when compared to the price of imported eggs of the same quality. For the purposes of this study, it must be noted that the cost of feed has been assumed to at 50% lower than the actual cost of feed, if imported. It would not be possible to maintain a selling price of BDT 8 per egg unless cost of feed is minimized by 50% or a subsidy or a grant is given to the poultry farm.
Promotion
Brochures and documentaries should be prepared capturing the farming process and benefits of the farm to the local community. Such material should be carefully packaged and distributed to the Dhaka city and other targeted places Invitations should be sent to the resort managers and other key staff to visit the farm and experience the role the farm plays in the community.
Business plan- 12
This could be used as a good opportunity to negotiate contracts and impress them to associate with the farm in providing technical and financial support.
Distribution
It is unlikely that a farm of the proposed size in this plan would require several distribution channels to sell its produce. Networking with one or two resorts will be sufficient to ensure that the entire production will be purchased by them.

Sources of Funds
For the purposes of this study, it is assumed that the initial investment will be funded either by 100% equity or by a mix of grant aid and equity. It would not be feasible to set-up the business through debt, as it would erode the limited excess cash flow generated from sales in the form of interest. Alternative interested parties could seek soft loans through various government managed loan schemes to minimize the burden on its cash flow.
Use of Funds
Funds invested in the proposed business will be utilized as follows: 1. Equipment for 04 Layer House of 1000 Birds: BDT 4,00,000 2. Freight & Handling Costs of Imports: BDT 50,000.00 3. Physical Structure for 04 Poultry Sheds (Material Cost and Labor) : BDT 280000 4. 02 Sets Automatic DE beaker: BDT 80,000 5. Other Accessories: BDT 50,000.00 6. Water Storage Tanks: BDT 40,000

Major Assumptions
All specific assumptions are shown the detailed Financial Statements and in the accompanying Business Plan. Following are some selected assumptions from the table: All financial figures are presented in Bangladeshi TAKA. The financial projections are for a period of 3 years. Capital: 100% Equity/Grant No inventory or finished goods will be kept in store. Eggs shall be dispatched to customers on a daily basis.
Business plan- 17
Production
It is assumed that the facility will have a production capacity of producing 800 eggs per day from 3.5 months onwards.
Selling Price
It is assumed that 100% of the sales will be generated from the market/segment Price of each egg bottle with full packaging has been estimated at BDT 7.00 in year 1
Dividends
For the purposes of this feasibility, no assumptions have been made for payment of dividends. Availability of healthy cash reserves from year 2 onwards indicates availability of sufficient funds for business continuity.
Business plan- 18
CONCLUSION
The analysis of the project shows that the investment is not highly profitable within the first 3 years but financially sustainable with positive cash flows throughout. Net cash flow is positive throughout the first three years. The projections show a healthy cash flow from the 2nd year onwards. Dividends can be paid each year from the 2nd year onwards. The baseline discount rate used in the projections was at 11.75% p.a, which is the assumed and expected cost of capital for a business of this nature. The Net Present Value (NPV) of the project for a 3-year period at a 11.75% discounting factor resulted in a negative value of BDT 4,56,562 and a payback period of 4 years. Internal Rate of Return (IRR) is a not favorable at -3%.
Although there is sufficient cash flow to sustain the business over a 3 year period, based on the above results and subject to the assumptions made, the proposed poultry farm business appear to be financially feasible over a period of 1 year. Finally, a stable supply of the various kinds of feed required is essential for the success of such a project. Even more important would be the cost of such feed. This study shows that the cost of imported feed is too expensive to make the project feasible. Therefore, it is essential that a low cost alternative for securing feed supplies is guaranteed. The need to explore low cost feed options for such projects will remain an important issue for consideration.
