4. Introduction
Stylo is not a new brand it is an old brand of fashion. Stylo does not
need any kind of introduction whenever someone talks about fashion
and classy footwear, Stylo is one of the brands that come in my mind.
Stylo started in 1974 by Mr. Azhar Siddiqui with the amount of Rs.
175 at anarkali by setting up single rented outlet in Lahore. Until
2003, it had only four shops; and then with an aggressive expansion
plan from 2004 onwards, the brand achieved a presence in 52 cities
and boasts 87 retail outlets. And gradually increasing outlets in all
over Pakistan and it becomes one of that brands that define fashion.
Now Stylo Shoes is one of the largest women footwear selling
network of Pakistan and the major ladies shoes.

5. Introduction
Sharjeel Hasan, Marketing Manager of Stylo, has given the brand a
new direction by shifting the focus from the product to the
consumer. Previously, the brand was lacking emotional appeal and
relevance.
Stylo applies a customer-centric approach as it realizes the
importance of a long lasting relations with its customers. Stylo make
sure that their customers get the footwear they desire.

9. Mission & Vision
Mission:
The mission of Stylo shoes brand is to make fashionable footwear
that satisfies their customer needs.
Vision:
The vision of Stylo is touching the international market.

10. Objectives
The objectives of Stylo are business objectives, which are as follow:
1) To maximize profit.
2) To increase market share.
3) To increase their growth.
4) To become market leader.

11. Porter’s five forces model

12. Competitive rivalry
1) In The Ladies Footwear Industry, The Level of Rivalry is high. There are Several
Competitors such as METRO, ECS, BORJAN and STARLET. The Competition
Between These Companies is so intense because they are dealing with SHORT-LIFE
CYCLE Products.
2) Target market is almost same for all competitors that results in almost same
strategies so, competitors in this industry do not face hard time reading each
other’s (competitors) intentions accurately.
3) The Growth the Ladies Footwear Industry has experienced over the past few
years is beginning to Stabilize. This Forces Firms to differentiate using
Marketing, Advertising, Fashion and Technology to steal market share away
from their Competitors.
Competitive Rivalry for STYLO is high.

13. Bargaining power of supplier
1) Too many suppliers are there in market. The suppliers are spread
specifically in the city of Lahore and Karachi. The suppliers are
quite large in number as compared to the buyers who order them.
This large ratio of suppliers leaves the choice on buyers. The
buyers have the complete power to work with as many suppliers
as they want and to reject the suppliers when their orders are
made.
Bargaining Power of supplier is low.

14. Bargaining power of customer
1) Products are homogenous. Shoes in ladies fashion industry are not
much different in terms of design and quality as almost all the
firms have same designer. Buyers are very strong as they have too
many options available without any switching cost involved. If
they face any issues regarding price, quality etc. they would easily
switch to other brands as they can find the same designs with a
slight difference
Bargaining power of customer is high.

15. Threat of new entrants
1) Established or growing market as companies exhibit solid
earnings and revenue figures which means industry is showing
signs that it is in its growth stage.
2) No technicality involved. Supply chain is very easy to manage in
this industry as not much technology is involved in
manufacturing of the shoes and as a matter of fact outsourcing
lowers the risk of failure in production.
3) New entrants need to differentiate by spending on advertising,
customer services and to some extent product differentiation
keeping the current situation of industry.
Threat of new entrants is high.

16. Threat of substitute
1) Machine made shoes are substitute products as handmade
shoes are being produced currently in the market.
2) Life of fashion shoes is very short i.e. fashion trends change
at a fast pace which makes it difficult for the substitutes to
follow rapid changes, so threat of substitute is pretty low
Threats of Substitute are low.

17. SWOT Analysis

stall.

37. My Recommendations
1) Stylo should also target male population of the country.
Because boys have also become stylish and fashion
oriented. So, Stylo should manufacture shoes for male
population as well.
2) They should also manufacture orthopedic shoes for
sugar patients.
3) They should enhance their promotional activities.
4) They should also focus more on public relation.
