Week 3 Project

Executive Summary

Kejani Suppliers would offer a wide variety of quality construction materials (Blocks, bricks,

ballast, sand, metal sheets etc.) providing a personal touch according to the clients’ preferences

for that homely touch. The business will ensure that home owners receive nothing but the best

products in the market that meet their needs. The company would be a ‘Go to place’ in the

construction industry. It will be a click away in all social media platforms; Facebook, Instagram

and Twitter under ‘Kejani Suppliers’. The capital expenditure would come from savings and

bank loans, and the operational expenditure would come from the profits got from the supply of

the construction materials. The foreseeable risk the business would face is the cost of sourcing

and transporting the construction materials.

Description of Product, Service, or Business

Our company will offer products such as bricks: first class, second class and third class and

roofing, which includes Clay tiles, concrete tiles and metal sheets. We will also provide concrete

blocks for construction. The materials will be outsourced from industries and bulk stored at our

site ready for supply.

Description of Industry or Industry Closest to your Product or Service

The business will be under the building construction industry. Building and construction industry

is developing at a fast rate and also decentralizing. In the near future, services that could only be

found in the capital city will be accessible in the remotest of areas.

forming the team will include human resource manager, finance manager, transport manager,
