Description
Blozom Boutique will sell a combination of widely recognized name brands as well as clothing lines
from select fashion designers. We will closely follow generational fashion trends as well as our own
customers’ purchasing preferences. Moreover, we will tailor our inventory to meet the needs of our
“boomer” clientele. Solely focusing on the styles, colors, and fits to flatter the female Baby Boomer’s
figure will be our specialty. While apparel, such as business clothing, casual wear, jeans, and formal
wear will be our main staple, we will also offer some accessories such as belts, scarves, and hats.
We will earn profits by selling our merchandise. Our pricing structure will remain flexible, as we will
implement suggested retail pricing on common brands as well as the standard practice of key stoning
prices. Additionally, we will use a value-based pricing structure, which measures the value of our
products to our customers such as easy access, quality, customer service, and styles flattering to our
target consumer. We will implement end of season sales, holiday and overstock sales, multi-buy
savings, and promotional coupons at strategic intervals.

clothing along with home accents, electronics, and appliances. While familiarity

Based on our marketing plans, location, store size, and product offerings, we expect to collect annual
sales of $285,000 in year one, $375,000 in year two and $525,000 in year three.
Our average cost of goods sold will be 40%, which leaves us with a gross margin of 60%. Our
minimum monthly fixed costs are $15,500 per month, so we will need to generate sales of $25,833 per
month to break even. We will become profitable on a monthly basis before the end of our first year.
In our third year, we will earn a net income of $105,000. The accompanying income statement

In fact, most clothing shops for the 55+ set are still selling clothes that our Facilities Start Writing here... Presently, Blozom Boutique does not have a bricks-and-mortar location. However, we have identified an ideal spot in the downtown district of Pleasantville.

We will closely follow generational fashion trends as well as our own customers’ purchasing preferences. Moreover, we will tailor our inventory to meet the needs of our “boomer” clientele. Solely focusing on the styles, colors, and fits to flatter the female Baby Boomer’s figure will be our specialty. While apparel, such as business clothing, casual wear, jeans, and formal wear will be our main staple, we will also offer some accessories such as belts, scarves, and hats. We will earn profits by selling our merchandise. Our pricing structure will remain flexible, as we will implement suggested retail pricing on common brands as well as the standard practice of key stoning prices. Additionally, we will use a value-based pricing structure, which measures the value of our products to our customers such as easy access, quality, customer service, and styles flattering to our target consumer. We will implement end of season sales, holiday and overstock sales, multi-buy savings, and promotional coupons at strategic intervals.
