Business Idea- From hospitals to restaurants and food streets across the country, the use of surgical caps has now become common. Doctors, nurses, chefs, vendors and even people walking in traffic are using surgical caps to protect themselves from pollution.
Despite this growing demand, its production at the local level is very limited. To fill this gap, a new business model has emerged which can start with a small machine worth Rs 1 lakh and can generate sales of Rs 30,000 every day.
Earlier, machines for making surgical caps used to cost more than 10 lakhs, but now its mini version is available for only Rs 1,00,000. This automatic machine can make 30,000 surgical caps in a day. Not only this, this machine can also be installed at home or in a small unit due to low power consumption and easy operation.
Suitable business model for every class
The most special thing about this business is its scalable and accessible model. College students, housewives, retired officers or youth living in small towns – everyone can start it easily. Sales can be increased manifold by adopting not only manufacturing but also B2C i.e. direct customer reach method.
Get direct benefit from B2C selling model
If you just open a shop, then the sales may be limited. But the strategy in this business is the direct customer model. Target every hospital, hotel, food stall, and school-college in your city. Also, a mobile sales team can be formed, which can be seen selling caps at public places. This will also help in your branding and the sale of caps will also increase rapidly.
Each Surgical Cap costs just 50 paise
The margins in this business are also excellent. It costs about Rs 0.50 to make a surgical cap, but it sells for Rs 5 in the market. If you make a small packet of 5 caps and give it to a retailer for Rs 5, and the retailer sells it for Rs 10, you still make a profit of up to Rs 2 per cap. If 30,000 caps are sold per day, a net earning of Rs 15,000 is possible—that is, about Rs 3 lakh net profit per month.
