JCHANNEL CLOTHIERS as the name implies is a fashion brand, tho upcoming. It is a small scale busines that is involved in the sewing and delivery of suitable wears and designs for both male and female. The brand started operations in 2016 and it is located AT BDPA 19th Street.
THE OPERATIONS
JCHANNEL CLOTHIERS is a brand that has to 4 electric machines, and 2male operators where one is an expert in the making of male wears while the 2nd operator of the business is an expert of female wears. They have apprentices that are learning how to sew under the 2 major expert operators. Though they are students but speaking with them, they were able to explain to us how they run the business stating that they sew at convinience though they give those learning the available easy materials.
During festive periods, they are always on holidays from school to attend to whatever materials available where both production and delivery is made easy because they are not occupied with book works.
CHALLENGES
There is no business in life that hasn't got challenges, besides nothing comes easy without challenges. The major challenge the business is facing right now is lack of sufficient working tools(availability of machines and also workers). It lingers up with how busy and tight the schedule of the operators seems to be because they are still studying and also sewing, trying to balance the timing hasn't been easy all because they don't have enough people that assist them all is just because of the lack of sufficient machines to satisfy their customers faster and more effective.
Also they don't have a standby generator that helps them to power their electric machine there by this limits their work rate depending on only light to power their electric machines.
SOLUTIONS TO THEIR LOOP HOLES
1st of all we'll like to talk about their timing, though when starting, it's hard to blend into the system but the operators being students makes it worst because coming up as a business owner or an entrepreneur, u can't be masters of two trades, it's either you are a master of one and a slave to the other or vice versa.
Also they should work towards getting a power supplier(a generator or an inverter). It will enhance speed in their operations. Knowing that with only BEDC supply of electricity, their operations are slow.
Also It is not just about building a customer base but also to satisfy them as they increase. Hopefully with time they should expand their business to satisfy their customers but that should come after they solved the basic thing needed to make it a semi-standard business. To have good and lasting customers, your style of operation should be at least worth it.
