Scope of Business
Toys have been an important and integral part of our childhood
and growing up stages since ancient times. Though some of the
modern age toys are completely different and much more
advanced than Traditional toys, there are some toys, which have
been around since centuries and continue to be the favorite toys
of everyone's childhood, like the wooden rocking horse.
The children of today, their habits, requirements and
needs, likings, upbringing, etc. are very much different from those
of the previous generations. Thus, their toys have also undergone
a lot of evolution and modifications. Nowadays, there are many
types of toys available, which not only entertain the kids, but they
are educational and help in the overall growth of the children.
However, wooden toys, though they are traditional, continue to
rule the charts even now, because of their advantages and
features. They are not just simple toys without relevant details
or great features, but have evolved into bright, eye-catchy and
educational toys of today.

1.1 Wooden toys: they have been present since

centuries and are still popular and best choices for many. These
toys have many advantages over the present day plastic toys,
which make them a hit amongst parents while searching for toys
fit for their kids' needs. The amazing characteristics and
advantages of these toys over their present day counter parts are
as follows:

1.1.1 Natural and safe: The present day plastic

toys have been found to contain a toxic component called
lead. Lead when consumed can have serious and adverse
health effects and can be very harmful for children.
Growing toddlers often have a habit of putting toys in
their mouths, thus these toys pose significant danger. On
the other hand, wooden toys are made from natural
woods like pine, bamboo, etc. and contain glue rather
than nails so as to make them safer for kids. Mostly
natural dyes, which are non-toxic, are used to paint the
toys.

1.1.2 Stronger: These toys are stronger and more

durable than plastic or cardboard toys, just like a wooden
puzzle is more durable than cardboard ones, etc. In
addition, these toys do not contain any small or fragile
parts like plastic toys, which can break off easily and pose
a threat of choking the kids. Thus, they provide the best
value for your hard-earned money. As wood is rugged,
these toys lasts generations and are often made into
heirlooms, which are preserved and passed down to
various generations.

1.1.3 Modern: These toys are as modern as the

other present day's toys. Earlier they were available in
crude and simplest form, without much detailing or
attractive looks. However, now these too are available in
bright colors and features to attract the attention of kids.
These are available in all forms, like pull toys for kids
learning to walk or educational and development
preschool toys for developing toddlers.

1.1.4 Green: When plastic toys are disposed off, they

end up polluting the environment. Seeing this, many
wooden toys manufacturers have started using woods of
trees, which are not facing the threat of extinction.
2. Introduction

3. Our Policy
These toys are made for children between 4 to 7 years
old and keeping in view the point of the parents, what
they want for their children. These toys can be dangerous
for the children who are under the age of 3 because a
child at that age has no sense of his. He can swallow,
pinch, or smash it into his head etc. That is why we have
prohibited our toys on the ages less than 3. These toys
are not for infants, toddlers and children who still mouth
objects. Children will love to play with these wooden toys
because it is something diverse with the same old plastic
and it has a plus point too that it does not usually break
early then the plastic ones. They remain new as once
brought because of the polish. A child can play with our
toys everywhere like in the cars, daycare center’s
schools, at the baby sitter’s and grandparent’s house etc.

again and again.

Our motive & Responsibility

We consider it our prime responsibility to create a good

shoeboxes, car keys and saucepans as they can but they
can provide harm to them. These toys are developed for
a purpose to provide children something which can
improve their learning skills along with providing fun and
pleasure and can be trusted by parents. Because some of
the other toys are spoiling children and are leaving bad
effects on the children minds as well as the parents
dislike them but they are forced to buy the toys because
of their children. Our toys are specifically designed and
built keeping in mind the safety standards and to
focusing on a child’s learning and growth. Our prime
motive is to contribute to the economic growth by

In model town we have a small building at rent and the rent of the
building is around 20,000 rupees and this is also our shop and we store
and save all our wooden toys in it. So the building is acting as a
warehouse to our toys as well. In international market we have also a
small retail shop at rent and the rent of the shop is around 400 Euros.
Also we have made some arrangement with the local dealers of toys who
are offering our products to the consumer at a very reasonable rate.
These small retail shops are promoting our business in a good manner
and we are sharing a good chunk of profits made through that.

contract with a small shipping company who transport our products
through the sea route. From there we have arrangements with local

vehicle which goes from our warehouse to the shops and delivers the toys
over there. We have made arrangements with local courier companies as
well to make some special deliveries for the retailers and our valued
customers.

PROMOTION:
ADDS:

We are planning to promote our business through a variety of mediums to

offer cheap and economical publicity for our products, actually the main
issue in the local market is first educating the consumer’s to buy our
products because it is an art right now which is long forgotten so what we
are planning to do is to utilize the media available to educate the masses.
So we will start by giving some advertisements in the newspapers
because nearly every one reads a newspaper. Then we are thinking of
promoting our business through advertisements through radio channels
as well. Finally the best medium to exploit the market now a days is the
internet so we are making deals with a few local websites. And we have
currently started a website to promote our business in the international
masses as well. As our business progresses we will shoot some video
advertisements as well for our products.

All the specifications and features of our toys will be given in our website.
The toys will have detail HD pictures of them available at the web to show
the good detail that has been so finely been put into the toys. There will
be pricing information readily and regularly updated over there. All the
interactive flow chart of the toy making will also be there to educate
people the work that is behind this fine piece of art. Online shopping
facility will be added shortly. We will make a page of Wooden Toys on
some famous social networking site in order to educate people with the
toys. We will give a lot of details over there regarding our wooden toys

MEDIUM:

As already described above the medium that we are going to utilize in

promoting our business are newspapers, Radio and Internet. Video and
television advertisements will be kept a minimum due to shortage of
budget.

LOCAL COMPETITORS:
There are many types of local competitors in Pakistan. They are not
registered for wooden toys but they are selling regular toys. Because a
toy is always anything which is of interests to a child the most so all these
companies are our natural competitors who don’t compete in the same
league but are directly affecting our business. Some of the companies are
listed below

• KBS international
• ZNZ enterprises
• Rank Traders
• Amir associates

International competitors:
International market is relatively a big market to exploit and we have a
good number of same product class competitors having well-earned
reputation over there. The main competitors that have an impact on our
business are mentioned below.

• FAGUS, Germany
• HABA, Germany
• SCALINO, Switzerland
• THAMES & KOSMOS USA
 Apart from these direct competitors there are other companies that are
also in the toy business so it is a tough market to exploit and penetrate.

Pest Analysis:
Political factors:

1. Tax Policy

We will pay all the taxes charged on us. And will pay each and every tax
which is legally imposed on us.

2. Labour law:

We will go according to all the laws of the labour. We will strongly follow the
labour laws of the country. We respect the rule of government regarding
labour laws. We are strongly committed to the child labour laws and
employee labour laws and follow the standards of minimum wages and all
other related laws.

3. Environmental law:

We will never destroy the Environment. Our work is for Wood but we will do it
according to the policies and laws of the Government. We get our wood form
governmental approved suppliers.

4. Trade restrictions:

We will do our business under the restrictions of the government. We will

never do an act which is against the government trade rules and regulations.
Economic Factors:

1. Economic Growth:

Our business will be able to help in the economic growth of the country . We
are hiring many unemployed workers, mostly craftsmen whose work was at a
low scale due to the changing trends of the people, we are giving them a
chance to do what the do best and get the best for it. We are employing
skilled workers. In addition to that we are exporting our products and
promoting the art and heritage for our country, it may be small but we are
doing the best we can.

2. Interest Rates:

Due to a change in the interest policy we are finding difficulties in getting

investment for our business, due to high interest rates on loans set by the
state bank.

3. Exchange Rates:

The drastically changing exchange rates are making it difficult for us to set a
permanent price for our products in the international market. But we are
trying the best to keep the prices right for our products, in order to do so we
have to speculate the rising trends in the rates and set the prices
accordingly.

4. Inflation Rates:

Inflation is also majorly affecting our business, due to the rising inflation
trends it is very difficult to actually set the prices for our products and to
keep them at a permanent stat. This as a result is increasing our costs, so
at times we have to sell the product by decreasing our profits as well which
are already at a low level. Inflation effects everything so the raw material
gets more expensive, packing costs, transportation costs and administration
overheads also escalate so it is relatively difficult to keep our prices at a
good stable state.

Social Factors:

1. Health Consciousness:

As told earlier our toys are 100% safe no chemical dyes or polishes are used.
All are safe for children. We are aware of the health habits of our customers
and we respect them in every possible manner so we make toys that are
100% compatible to the child safety and human health measures. No doubt
misuse will have its dis advantages but we have specified age measures and
safety precautions on all of our toys.

2. Population growth rate

We will make our products according to the population growth rate. As we

manufacture toys for mostly children so we have to look into the population
growth factor as well to speculate about the demand for our toys.

3. Environment protection

We are not polluting the environment, all the garbage or un-used material is
disposed of safely according to the safety and international environmental
standards. We are trying to help building a good environment for all to live.
We are trying our best to play our role in protecting the environment and are
making arrangements to meet our objective. We are using recyclable
material in our toys to make a greener environment.

Technological Factors:

1. Research and Development activity:

We have to know about all the new researches and developments happening
in our section in order to compete with the other companies. As technology
improves our products, we are using a mixture of old and new to make our
product better. We are doing much research on the technological trends for
our toys and are doing our best so that our customers get the best stuff.

Environment Factors:

Climate Change:

Changing climates have a big impact on our toys because good wood tends
to be seasonal and we have to get wood at high rates from the market in the
winter and the rains season. So we are trying to adjust according to these
climate changes by planning in advance and managing material requisition
planning accordingly.
