Market Analysis

Target Market Segment Strategy
Industry Analysis
Carpentry Pro will be focusing on architects, owners, and contractors in the regional area who are
involved in the high-end Public, residential, resort, and commercial development segments.
In 2021 to Date, a total of 219 new Ministries Offices worth 368,000,000,000 are constructed in Capital
City , Dodoma. If we take an average of 14,000,000 per kitchen, (probably conservative), and multiply
that by the 219 Offices and Homes, that gives us a total of 3,066,000,000 in kitchens installed for the
year. We plan to acquire 4-5% of the market share of this residential segment in our first year. We do
not think this is unreachable, especially in a still-growing market.
Zanzibar, Dar es Salaam also has great potential as new developments Projects, NHC and TBA also
has big projects coming up
The following table outlines the total market potential of the three major customer segments in
Tanzania.
Carpentry Pro will be focusing on contacting contractors and architects that deal with the luxury home
market. Making ourselves known to these entities will generate some strong leads, along with getting
personal recommendations to the home owners.

Industry Analysis
There are two main types of Furniture suppliers in the industry.
Resellers of complete Furniture sets using stock items where the Furniture turn up completely
built. Usually have no shop facilities but do have showrooms.
Custom shops with full, in-house fabrication facilities. They are usually very product orientated
and under-perform with customer support.
Carpentry Pro can provide high volume work, superior project management, and excellent quality while
maintaining a low overhead.
There are many competitors in the local market. Although each of them delivers a quality product, we
feel they fail to deliver a full turnkey package. There are four factors that govern the cost of all projects:
Scope, Product, Design, and Services. Most people mistakenly think that the size of the project and the
choice of brand name products will make for the best results. But it is the design and a company's
services that will have the greatest impact on the quality and value of the customer's investment.
