Step-by-Step Roadmap
Zero se pehli sale tak — actual kaam
Har step realistic hai — Jhajjar ke liye, as is.
1
Learn / Research
Visit Jhajjar's industrial clusters in sectors 1-4 (Bahal and Matanhail areas); meet 5-10 established manufacturers; attend India International Footwear Fair (IIFF) in Delhi; understand production capacity, lead times, and quality benchmarks used by top 20 units in the district.
2
Source Raw Materials
Source EVA sheets and leather from CLRI-certified suppliers in Delhi (Deshbandhu Gupta Road) and Agra; order synthetic materials from Ahmedabad suppliers; first batch of 500 pairs requires ₹1-2 lakh raw material cost; negotiate 30-45 day payment terms with suppliers once credibility is established.
3
Produce / Partner
Either secure 2000-5000 sq ft space in Jhajjar Industrial Estate (available at ₹40-60/sq ft/month) and hire 8-12 skilled workers, or partner with existing CMOs in Jhajjar offering job-work at ₹80-120 per pair for sandals and ₹150-250 for shoes; minimum 200-pair monthly orders recommended for partnership.
4
Brand & Register
Register Udyam MSME online; apply for IEC code from nearest DGFT office in Chandigarh (10 days processing); file brand trademark at IP Office Delhi; obtain BIS certification for footwear (ISI mark optional but preferred); GST registration as manufacturer.
5
First Sale
Launch on Meesho and ShopClues first (lower commission 10-15%); register with Amazon Launchpad and Flipkart Seller Hub (manage 25-30% commission); build Instagram and WhatsApp Business account with product catalogs; engage with B2B buyers via IndiaMART and Global Sources; approach retail chains in NCR region directly with samples.
6
Scale
After 6 months and ₹15-20L revenue, expand to 3-4 new product categories (boots, formal shoes); increase production to 3000-5000 pairs monthly; hire dedicated export manager for international orders; establish design partnership with 2-3 design studios in Gurgaon; open own 500-1000 sq ft retail-cum-office in Faridabad or Gurgaon.
