Polymer & Chemical

Children Shoe

₹16.2 L(₹16,23,000) · ₹10–25LUp to 35% subsidy

Production plant, QC lab, inventory management.

The pitch

Manufactures polymer‑based children’s shoes using chemical polymerization and molding processes.

Retail footwear chains, online marketplaces, and direct to school uniform suppliers. The unit will run a 24‑hour shift, producing 500 pairs per day, with raw polymer sourced from local suppliers and finished goods stored in a dedicated warehouse.

Sample capital requirement: ₹16,23,000 covering a 200 m² production unit, polymer extrusion line, molding machines, quality control lab, and initial inventory.

Watch-outs

Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification

Raw material price volatility
Polymer feedstock prices can fluctuate, impacting cost of goods sold.
Compliance with environmental norms
Polymer manufacturing requires proper waste disposal and emission controls.
Skill gap
Need trained operators for extrusion and molding; consider on‑the‑job training.
Market saturation
Children’s footwear market is competitive; differentiate via design or price.
