3. BRIEF DESCRIPTON OF PROJECT & PRODUCT

This unit is capable of producing different types of wooden furniture i.e. bed sets, dinning sets,
sofa sets, center tables, side tables and office furniture.
The entire finished product depends on the quality of wood. Detailed technical know-how about
the quality of wood and the use of seasoned / dry wood plays a vital role in the manufacturing of
quality furniture. It is recommended that dry wood, from forests is used for manufacturing
quality wooden furniture. Forest reserves like Oromia, Amhara, Sidama, souther nation and
nationality , Gambela and other forests are potential sources of quality wood. Furniture
manufacturing units in Ethiopia mostly use Sheesham wood. Other types of woods used in
manufacturing furniture are; Warka wood, Wanza wood. Tsid this, substitute material like
Australia and MDF are also used in the manufacturing of furniture. Other materials used in
furniture manufacturing process are nails, screws, glue / solution, spirit, lakh, thinner, lacquer,
sealer, hardener etc. These raw materials are easily available in the market.

ASHENAFI MUSEY HOME AND OFFICE FURNITURE MANUFACTURING UNIT

The demand for wooden furniture in the domestic market is consistent throughout the year;
however, it significantly increases during the period of October to March due to ‘wedding
season’. The demand for furniture almost doubles during this period and is a good time to enter
the market. Since strong competition already exists in the domestic market, manufacturing of
high quality trendy designs and aggressive marketing is essential to get a prominent place in the
market. Despite the introduction of new / alternative materials in furniture manufacturing,
wooden furniture is still preferred in the domestic as well as in the international market due to its
traditional appeal and durability.
Over the years, entry into the global market has also become more competitive, due to
demanding factors like green furniture, multi-functionality, simplicity and neutral colors, Ready-
to-assemble (RTA) and Do-it-yourself (DIY) furniture. Malaysia, Philippines, Indonesia and
China have established strong brand names and have emerged as key market players.

5.1. Production Process Flow

The process of converting wood into furniture mainly involves the following sequence of
operations:

ASHENAFI MUSEY HOME AND OFFICE FURNITURE MANUFACTURING UNIT

Purchase of Wood

Wood is purchased after Quality inspection. Following points are to be considered while
inspecting quality:
 Age of wood
 Dryness of wood
 Its surface, which should be plain without holes etc.

Cutting of Wood

Wood of natural form, after purchase is cut into different sizes of blocks and slabs.

Seasoning / Drying of Wood

Season wood is higher in price than the fresh wood, so if the wood purchased is not properly
dried than these blocks / slices are seasoned through different processes, namely:
 Condensation
 Boiler System
 Vacuum System
 Seasoning the wood by putting the wood slices under normal environmental temperature
for considerable duration.

Selection of Design

Before manufacturing any furniture product the desired design is selected. Selection of elegant
design is important to ensure attractive finished product.

Cutting into Slices

The seasoned wood blocks are cut into desired shape and slices according to the requirement of
design.
Molding
The slices of wood are molded into the desired shape according to the design.

7
ASHENAFI MUSEY HOME AND OFFICE FURNITURE MANUFACTURING UNIT

Carving
Carving means the different elegant patterns carved in the wood. Quality of carving
depends on the skills of the labor.
Assembly / Fitting
Once the different pieces are carved & molded than these parts / pieces are assembled
or fixed together to give the shape to the final product.
Finishing (Paint / Polish)
Assembled product is grinded to make the surface smooth. Once the surface is smooth, finishing
material is applied to make the surface ready for paint or polish. After the base is prepared final
finishing is applied depending on requirement in terms of paint / polish. Upholstery of fabric is
carried out according to the requirement of the design.

5.2. Installed & Operational Capacities

The proposed project is capable of manufacturing a complete range of wooden furniture and
other allied products to meet the demand of domestic market. The Unit will work on an 8 hours

6. CRITICAL FACTORS

Following are the factors critical for the success of this business venture;
 Ensuring availability of seasoned (dry) wood for high quality furniture manufacturing.
Seasoned wood minimizes deforming that may occur due to dampness in wood.
 Selection of skilled labor is an important factor, as it can improve quality of finished
products by better craftsmanship & lower wastage. It is recommended that specialized
labor is hired for this business.
 New designs and styles can build brand equity for the business. Creation of new designs
and styles is vital for setting new trends as the market is quite competitive.
 Aggressive virtual marketing needs to be undertaken in the absence of a physical
showroom.
 Though skilled labor is available in the market, additional manufacturing work load can
be sub-contracted to save time and resources.
 The manufacturing unit will require selling directly to showrooms and direct clients, for
which the owner would need to develop extensive knowledge of the market.
 Higher return on investment and a steady growth of business is expected with the
entrepreneur having some prior experience / education in the related field of business.
 Easy access to raw material should be ensured.

7. GEOGRAPHICAL POTENTIAL FOR INVESTMENT

The demand for wooden furniture is higher in densely populated cities of Ethiopia i.e. Amhara
region Debirebhan making city viable for business. However, establishment of the unit in the
vicinity of established wooden furniture clusters i.e. Adds Ababa gives the added advantage of
easy availability of skilled labor.

8. POTENTIAL TARGET CUSTOMERS / MARKETS

Potential markets for wooden furniture can be categorized into the following:
 Newly constructed houses
 Gift on weddings
 Building renovations
 Public / private institutions
Majority of customers in the domestic market belong to first and second category. These
customers require furniture for their newly built houses and usually buy a range of products like
bed sets, dining sets and sofa sets with other decorative material for their entire house. Initially,
entrepreneurs should target these customers to establish the business and increase their customer
base. Flourishing hotel and tourism industry can considerably increase the demand for wooden
furniture whereby; large orders can also be secured to supply wooden furniture to hotels and
resorts. Wooden furniture retail Clusters are found in most areas of all big cities of Ethiopia,
where manufactured furniture can be sold.
