By opening your own business, you can start a sewing production. But for lovers of design and modeling of clothes, in addition to registering and searching for qualified and conscientious personnel, you need to find a good workshop. That is, a place where a highly efficient garment production could be organized.
It is necessary
- - a room for a sewing workshop;
- - its layout;
- - ad in the paper.
Instructions
Step 1
The first step is to decide on a job profile, that is, the type of clothing that you are going to make. Study the market, supply and demand, find out which product is the most popular, indicate the planned production volumes, etc. This will help you to successfully occupy your niche in the market, as well as guide you in the size of the premises for the future workshop, the number of storage locations, etc.
Step 2
Next, decide what your workshop will be like. You can, of course, attract seamstresses who will work at home, providing them with sewing machines, but there is a high risk that home-based seamstresses will make "leftist" orders. So it is still better to open a workshop, although this implies high rental costs.
Step 3
Choose a roomy room for a sewing workshop. Pre-divide it into zones where you will have a sewing workshop, cutting room, warehouse, utility room, and a fashion designer's office. Plan your workspace in accordance with health and safety standards. Please note that for breaking these rules, you can be fined and even shut down.
Step 4
To search for premises for a workshop, advertise your desire to purchase or rent premises of a certain area, look through advertisements for the sale and lease of commercial and industrial premises in local newspapers and various Internet sites.
Step 5
You can use the services of real estate agencies. They, I would like to believe, will select and offer you premises according to your requirements, and you will only have to examine the possible options and conclude a deal on the purchase or lease of premises with its owner. Be sure to check the ownership of the premises, so that later you do not end up with a broken trough.
Step 6
There are no special requirements for a place for a sewing workshop; it can even be located outside the city. Moreover, the cost of rent and real estate prices on the outskirts are lower than in the center of the village. But if you plan to combine a workshop with a clothing repair or tailoring atelier, look for a downtown location with convenient means of communication. This will help you attract more customers. When choosing a room, pay special attention to communications, as you will need to take care of good wiring, alarm, ventilation, lighting, etc.
