Watch-outs
Idea-specific discussion points — not automatic disqualification
Raw Material Price Volatility
Fluctuations in fabric and thread prices can erode margins; secure long‑term supplier contracts and maintain safety stock.
Compliance with Textile Safety Standards
Uniforms must meet fire‑resistance and chemical safety norms; non‑compliance can lead to product recalls.
Seasonal Demand Fluctuations
Demand peaks before school terms; plan production schedules and inventory to avoid overstocking.
Cash Flow Timing
Payments from schools may be delayed; maintain adequate working capital and negotiate favorable credit terms.
Competition from Local Tailors
Local tailors offer lower prices; differentiate through quality, branding and contractual agreements with institutions.
