Our intention of starting just one outlet of our picture framing store in Swayambhu
Kathmandu is to test run the business for a period of 2 to 5 years to know if we will invest
more money, expand the business and then open other outlets in key regions within Nepal.
We are quite aware that there are several photo framing stores all over Kathmandu and even
in the same location where we intend locating ours, which is why we are following the due
process of establishing a business.

This is the summary of the SWOT analysis that was conducted for Hamro Photo Frame.

Strength:

Our location, the business model we will be operating on (physical and online picture
framing store), varieties of payment options, wide range of uniquely designed picture frames
and related products and our excellent customer service culture will count as a strong
strength for Hamro Photo Frame.

Weakness:

A major weakness that may count against us is the fact that we are a new photo framing
business, and we don’t have the financial capacity to compete with Big other manufacturer
company who are into picture framing and who are already determining the market direction
for the industry in Kathmandu.

Opportunities:

The fact that we are going to be operating our photo framing store in one of the busiest
streets in Kathmandu provides us with unlimited opportunities to sell our photo frames to a
large number of people.

Threat:

The Photo Framing Stores industry is expected to continue its downward due to changing
consumer tastes and mounting external competition hence posing a threat to our business.
So also, just like any other business, one of the major threats that we are likely going to face
is economic downturn.
It is a fact that economic downturn affects purchasing/spending power. Another threat that
may likely confront us is the arrival of a new picture framing stores in same location where
ours is located.

Implementation Timeline

Sustainability and Expansion Strategy


Part of the plans we have in place to sustain Hamro Photo Frame is to ensure that we
continue to make available a wide range of unique photo frames and related merchandize,
deliver quality services, improvise on how to do things faster and cheaper. We are not going
to relent in providing conducive environment for our workers and also the required trainings
that will help them deliver excellent services at all times.

From our findings, another factor that kills new businesses is financial leakage. In order to
plug financial leakages, we adopt the use of payment machine and accounting software to
run the business.

We are quite aware that our customers are key component to the growth and survival of our
business hence we are going to continuously engage them to give us ideas on how to serve
them better and the types of photo frames they want to see in our store.
Our company’s corporate culture is designed to drive our business to greater heights and
training and retraining of our workforce is at the top burner. We know that if that is put in
place, we will be able to successfully hire and retain the best hands we can get in the
industry; they will be more committed to help us build the business of our dreams.
