INTRODUCTION:

Fabrication work of different items is gaining importance with industrialization and

modernization of human civilization. Various steel fabricated items such as almirahs, racks, book-
cases, parts of almirahs such as monogram, locker plates, locker pullers handle its base, etc. are having
very good prospects at this moment and being used in daily life of middle class and upper middleclass
people. It is also used in Govt. offices, private companies, etc. Steel furniture is being preferred over
wood furniture due to its long durability, lightness in weight, portability, safety, economy in space
utilization, cleanliness etc.

The past performance of the unit can be seen at Annexure-A. this experience will definitely be
helpful to him to promote new unit with additional items of manufacture. Asked on his market survey
for different fabricated items the proposed unit will manufacture almirah and other fabricated items
as per local demand. Besides fabricated items, it is proposed to manufacture some almirah parts such
as Locker plate, Monogram, locker puller, etc. for which there is very good demand as there are many
fabrication units for almirah etc. Presently these units procure these parts from outside market.
Proposed unit will be able to meet their requirements and can be managed successfully by the
promoter of the unit.
