SWOT Analysis of Anlima Yarn dyeing limited

SWOT analysis is a strategic planning method used to evaluate the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats involved in a project or in a business venture. It involves specifying the objective of the business venture or project and identifying the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to achieve that objective. Identification of SWOTs is essential because subsequent steps in the process of planning for achievement of the selected objective may be derived from the SWOTs. Here we have developed a SWOT analysis of Anlima Yarn Dyeing limited.

Strengths:
1) State of the art equipment Anlima yarn dyeing limited have imported the latest machinery from Europe. Their machinery comprises of equipment used in spinning and weaving. They use the latest type of loom, called the shuttle-less loom in their operations which is the latest technology and which is capable of producing a very high thread count rate, in the range of 100 threads per sq inch (the normal is 3040). Therefore, their products are capable of meeting international standards of weaving, dyeing and printing, for example using dyes that do not irritate the skin. This is being done to get a competitive edge over rival firms so that when the WTO promulgates free economy in the whole world, they will have no problem in competing with international competitors. Anlima yarn dyeing has a policy of continuously upgrading its machines to remain among the most modern and efficient textile mills in the country. 2) Highly motivated workforce: Anlima Yarn Dyeing limited employs about 9000 workers, who work in three shifts of eight hours each throughout the day. They are very motivated because they are paid better than other people in textile mills, and they like the atmosphere of working Anlima. There is a labor union in Anlima, but relationships between the union and the management is amicable and not acrimonious. The best indication of the amicable relationship is that that there has been not a single strike at Anlima since its inception. 3) Diverse product range Anlima Yarn Dyeing limited have built a reputation for manufacturing high quality and diverse products and this is displayed in their product line. They have high-end products like bed-sheets, pillow cases, curtains, and fashion wear which are exported only, as well as medium-end clothing products. 4) Availability of cheap labor

o Although their workers are paid better than other workers in the same industry, their wage rate is still much lower than what workers get in other countries. This, coupled with their modern machinery, gives them the competitive edge over rival firms in the global marketplace.

Weaknesses:
1) Weak Information Systems Anlima is an established textile company, which has excellent production facilities. They have excellent machinery and CAD/CAM systems. But it is still conventionally operated most of the emphasis is on machine and worker efficiency. They still have not progressed to the information systems, which can help their cause in the international arena. Due to the quickly changing market scenario currently, they need efficient and accurate ways of processing data into information by using different types of information systems like expert systems, knowledge based systems, sales management, and online systems so that customers can track their orders over the Internet.

2) Weak R&D facilities There is hardly any investment in research and development in the Anlima Yarn dyeing limited, or indeed in any other Bangladesh industry, which puts Bangladesh textile companies at a significant disadvantage in the world forum. Bangladeshs main competitors, India and China, on the other hand have been investing heavily in BMR for a longer period of time and so have infrastructure already in place to exploit the situation that is expected to arise in 2015 with the abolishment of quotas.

3) Lack of HR development Modern technology in the textile sector requires educated and trained technicians. Similarly, modern management techniques are a major need, particularly in areas of Marketing, Finance and Human Resource Management.

Opportunities
Big opportunities in the local low-end market. International brand of designer wear. Risk of facing losses. Cannot match up with new technology. Lack of government initiative or incentives.

Threats:
Political/Economic Instability Piracy of designs Brand name infringement Tough international and national competitors Lack of conducive environment for business Anti-dumping laws Uncertainty of Cycle

Risk analysis: Risk analysis part is divided in 3 parts. They are: 1) Business risk 2) Financial risk 3) Proportionate of debt. 1) Business risk: Business risk= Business risk of Anlima yarn dyeing limited= = 0.885. 2) Financial risk: Financial risk can be measured with interest coverage ratio, a ratio used to determine how easily a company can pay interest on outstanding debt. The interest coverage ratio is calculated by dividing a company's earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) of one period by the company's interest expenses of the same period: .

o Calculation of interest coverage ratio: year 09-10 08-09 07-08 06-07 05-06 EBIT 18541913 1006184 113885 7842033 8692687 Interest expense 17985291 12255554 16698116 15036545 14833141 Ratio 1.03 .082 6.82 0.52 0.58

The lower the ratio, the more the company is burdened by debt expense. When a company's interest coverage ratio is 1.5 or lower, its ability to meet interest expenses may be questionable. An interest coverage ratio below 1 indicates the company is not generating sufficient revenues to satisfy interest expenses. So , for Anlima the year 08-09, 06-07 and 05-06 was very risky, only in the year 07-08 was less risky.

3) Proportionate of debt ratio: year 09-10 08-09 07-08 06-07 05-06 debt 72045208 9276412 14054910 35720032 92765412 equity 192429353 190322179 183202903 175360870 200507997 Ratio(%) 37.85 48.2 76.7 20.36 46.26
