Market Research

According to China Jewelry Industry Report 2013-2016, the demand for jewelry among the Chinese population has grown significantly (par. 1). The growth of disposable income among the citizens of China has created an interest towards luxury goods such as jewelry of both premium and costume types (Jewelry in China, par. 3).

Target consumers of the business are women, men and children. In the modern world China is the new market for jewelry manufacturers, the Chinese consumers especially value the items with natural gemstones (Hsu, Lucas, Qiu, Li, and Yu, par. 2). The retail of jewelry in China increased by ten per cent in 2013 (Jewelry in Hong Kong, China, par. 1).

Lalang Beads that is another big online portal selling jewelry findings, they deliver the goods via airmail, offer the lowest prices and good service.

All of these suppliers combined will allow buying a large variety of materials and elements for the product of our business.

Delivery methods

From supplier to company the materials will be delivered through the water, airmail or state mail. The order will be done online and then picked up by a car at a warehouse of the courier service.
From company to customers the products will be sent through courier services and mail operating within the state. The packaging needs to be safe and reliable so that fragile objects and parts are not damaged. The customers will also be able to pick up their orders by themselves at the stores.

Financial projections

In order to provide the costs needed for the operation of the business a loan will be taken from the Industrial and Commercial Bank of China. Financial statement of the company includes the calculation of cash inflows that show the revenues of the business and personal finances, income statement that sums up the performance of the business, and balance sheet that contains the information about what company owes and what it owns.

Justification

The jewelry manufacturing and distributing business was chosen for the project because beauty industry is an ever rowing market. Even though luxury products such as jewelry and accessories do not have an essential meaning, they have always been highly demanded. The growth of disposable income increases the demands for beauty products and luxury goods.

The researchers documented and reported the growth of average income in China over the last couple of years. Besides, this country is culturally oriented at the consumption of jewelry and gems of various kinds. These factors will most definitely contribute to the popularity of the planned business project.
