2 workers will be hired for services

• Salesman/Pharmacist
• Cashier

Problem Statement

The already existing pharmacies in the region are very few and the products they are selling are at very high prices. Moreover, most common products are usually out-of-stock because of the high demand.

Objective

My main objective is to launch a sustainable and supportive pharmacy business that grows by retailing better and authentic pharmaceutical products to the clients. Also,

• Create such an outlet that provides consumers with a wide variety of pharmaceuticals and self-care products.
• Expand our activities in the field of medicine, pharmaceutical care, cosmetics, and childcare.
• Gain profitability within the first couple of years by increasing the number of customers to approximately 30% each year. Also, start strategizing about expanding the business.
• Open more branches by the end of 4^th year of business.

Target Market

People living in the community often buy medicine monthly. Some of the payments are made through insurance and some pay from personal accounts. Our target audience is

Children 0-12 years

Mothers 20-40 years

Market Analysis: I have mapped out the locations of the competitive pharmacies in the community and the finalized location for XYZ pharmacy is ideal. The idea is to develop and maintain relationships with local consumers by providing extraordinary services to lure them away from big pharmaceutical brands. The main focus will be the customer’s needs.

Competitive Analysis: The neighborhood I have chosen is a low-income neighborhood and according to a conducted survey, the people are not happy with the high-brand pharmacy branch in the community, because of high prices and the required affordable items being out-of-stock.

Marketing

My team plans to advertise in all mediums. We will use social media platforms to advertise our pharmacy and to create a buzz about it. Also, we will be putting out pamphlets in nearby clinics and hospitals. We will print advertisements in all community-based newspapers and magazines. Also, we will place ad banners on the internet to raise brand awareness.

1. Website: Create a website about the XYZ pharmacy. Mention all the services we offer and the products that will be available at the store. We will also mention all the running promotions.
2. Sent SMS about our promotions and offers.
3. Social media pages: Create social media pages and advertise about the pharmacy.
4. Newspaper: Print ads in all the local community newspapers in Virginia.  

Startup Summary

• Legal paperwork will be done, which includes getting approval from the concerned authorities, obtaining licenses, permits and opening a bank account.
• Installation of front desk and counter.
• Purchase assorted bottles and containers.
• Purchase equipment including small furniture, product shelves, storage area, electronic devices, CCTV cameras etc. 

Start-up Cost 

I would like your company to initially invest $200,000, for the start-up cost and the running costs, for the first 2 years. Estimated start-up expense details are provided below:

Expenses for each month will be the following:

Sales Forecasts

This pharmacy will surely attract a large number of customers because of its affordability and convenience. I am very optimistic and certain that we will break even within the first couple of years and start generating a profit by the end of the third year. Below is the sales forecast for the first fiscal year, based on information collected in the field.

First 6 months: $110,000

First fiscal year: $210,000
