For this new unit, I must begin by describing what should be considered when
carrying out business planning.
Supply & Inventory Management
Since I will be selling automobiles, the inputs that go into creating it will be my
supplies & the end product will be in my inventory. I will take into consideration who
my suppliers will be, & whether or not I have multiple suppliers available or just rely

Competition: My competition are a variety of cars with very high reputations, such
as BMW, Ford, Nissan etc. but as a new company, we will ensure our prices are
reasonable & work towards a great reputation.
Marketing Plan
