1.0 Executive Summary
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be a well-established custom feed
store. The Business will be engaged in the production of custom General Livestock
Feeds, bird feed, deer feed, and other animal products in relation to livestock Animals
and Poultry, animal s, etc. Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, has recently
expanded its production facility (custom mill) and will be well-positioned to market its
workroom production beyond its present client base. The Business will be dedicated to
providing the highest quality customer service, meeting the agreed delivery dates, and
keeping the sales prices controlled in accordance with ongoing market trends. The focus
of this business plan will be to identify future target clients, explain our marketing
strategy, improve internal procedures so we can substantially increase profitability, and
obtain the funding required to expand the business.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be located in The Outskirst
of Bamenda , North West Region, Cameroon. The Business will be a privately owned
corporation and will be operating for nearly as long as possible. The previous
owners live next door to the store, and are planning on moving to their retirement home
in Northern Bamenda , North West Region, Cameroon, as soon as this business
transaction will be completed. However, since the current owners and new owners are
in fact family, the current owners will be around if needed and to visit on a bi-weekly
basis.
The six counties surrounding Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store contain an
estimated 14,695 livestock farms, and 20,434 Oher small ruminants. However, the
entire state will be an open market once delivery to customers will be an
option. Graceland Farmers store's would then be in the market to communication e
for the business of 53,315 farms. CAMEROON’S records show that a quarter of a billion
dollars will be spent annually on feed in the State of Bamenda , North West Region,
Cameroon by these same farms. The Business's estimated existing share of the nearby
market will be less than 1%. Previously, the owners have established an estimated
FCFA 140,000 of the state total on an annual basis. They have accomplished this
without any form of advertisement, and without any outside sales. The new owners are
focused on growing the business to gain a greater share, FCFA 260,000 annually, of the
state total.
The marketing research and tailored marketing strategy described in this business plan
will result in after-tax profits of FCFA 22,806 in Year 1 and increasing to nearly FCFA
30,000 in after-tax profits within three years, despite significant new advertising and
renovation expenses.
To achieve these goals, Graceland Farmers store fields needs funding for two different
phases of expansion. We are seeking a FCFA 15,000 short-term grant support, to be
repaid within two years. This grant support will enable us to purchase a delivery truck,
a key element of our new sales and marketing strategy. In early Year 2, we will need a
second, long-term grant support in the amount of FCFA 135,000, to build the area's
1
premier animal boarding stable. The addition of "Mid-Town Meadows" will not only be
another source of revenue, but also another source of feed sales. Mid-Town Meadows
will be a comfortable, inviting animal resort designed to make our customers and their
Domestic Animals and Poultry feel as if they are enjoying VIP services in a world all to
themselves. The decor and theme will be rustic (log exterior walls), yet formal (private
club house overlooking the enclosed arena). The feed store will be already located at the
main entrance, next to a cascading water fountain and Business signs.
1.1 Objectives
There are five primary objectives by which the success of Graceland Farmers and animal
feeds store will be tracked:
1.2 Mission
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store will be a family owned and operated
Business, dedicated to providing our customers with the best premium products and
services on the market. Graceland Farmers store's offers all of our customers the direct
personal attention they deserve. Our commitment to customer service and satisfaction
assures us that our customers are 100% satisfied with our products and services.
The primary keys to the success of Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store are as
follows:
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store will be a mid-Bamenda , North West Region,
Cameroon based farm and feed store dedicated to providing our customers with
professional services and high quality feed products. Graceland Farmers store's offers
only the best feed and products in the industry. Graceland Farmers store's also offers
2
our customers the option of a custom made feed. Our mill enables us to provide high
levels of quality products that are always fresh and available. Graceland Farmers
store's primary focus will be on keeping our customers satisfied. Professional
and reliable service, communication , pricing, and a knowledgeable staff will provide
for continued growth in the years to come.
Graceland Farmers store's was founded in 2020 by Mirabel Vrersonia Ayuni and her
Husband Patrick Kongnuy. Their hard work and dedication has proven to be
successful, as Graceland Farmers store's will be now one of the area's premier feed
stores and the only one specializing in custom-made feed.
The future of Graceland Farmers store's will be looking bright with younger family
members taking over ownership in future. Our focus will be on the core products, our
sales and promotions emphasize our history and reputation for quality and customer
service. With the addition of new energy and enthusiasm from younger owners, we will
increase sales and the bottom line. Even though the new owners have the time, energy,
interest and knowledge to invest in an already successful family business, our greatest
asset will be our commitment and pride in protecting and growing the business.
Originally , Graceland Farmers store's was just a feed store but now Graceland Farmers
store's will grow to become a larger provider of quality feeds, and also a boarding stable
and resource for customer with inquiries about all areas of animal care.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be a privately-held Bamenda , North
West Region, Cameroon corporation. Mirabel Vrersonia Ayuni Graceland Farmers
store, Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store's founder, and her husband are
Graceland Farmers store two other partners.
The new partners will share 50/50 dividends and they are as follows:
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store was founded as a privately held business ,
owned and operated by Mirabel Vrersonia Ayuni and her Husband . It was originally
a retail Business that sold feed and supplies to local customers.
Mirabel Vrersonia Ayuni and her Husband recognized the need for more variety in
products and more communication , pricing. Eventually this idea generated the need
for a feed mill, which should greatly increase+ the success of the business. Producing
custom feeds reduces the costs to almost 80% less than it costs to purchase a name
3
brand feed. The custom-made feed will be Graceland Farmers store's best seller
because of quality and price.
3.0 Services
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will offers our customers products and
supplies (Feed, Wormer, Treats, Beading, etc.) for the following Animals and Poultry:
Services
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store will continue to offer all of the above great
products, while evaluating the desire and need by our customers for the following items.
Products
4
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will continue to offer the existing services,
but we will also be expanding our services to include the following as customers
demonstrate an interest in supporting the addition of such services.
Services
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store will be the only custom feed manufacturer
in the Bamenda, Bamenda , North West Region, Cameroon area and surrounding 50
mile radius. In the past, our market will be individual end users. Recent market
analysis suggests that our custom feeds could be marketed to other direct feed stores
outside of this 50 mile radius.
In reviewing our existing customer base, and recognize the broad range of local
organizations such as Livestock Farmers and Future Farmers of Cameroon (Multi
Purpose Farmers Groups) and area farms and ranches, we have seen the possibilities
for potential market growth. Graceland Farmers store's has never had a direct sales
force, advertised, or approached the specialized market they dominate with any zest for
growth.
More than sixteen years in this business with success in the creation of formulas of
high quality, cost-contained custom feed, mixed with the energy of youth and
enthusiasm to grow this family business will be greatly reinforced by the simple market
analysis outlined below.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will focus on the following markets:
Livestock Farmers Enrollments: Simply put, this segment of our market will be our
future. We are working with Livestock Farmers to further interest in Animals and
Poultry, their nutritional needs, and means of cost containment. Through offering
quality custom feeds we will provide success for today and many tomorrows as these
youth become adult consumers (while annually, new youth will be targeted). This
market will allow for sales of all our feed products as Livestock Farmers offers
exposure to a variety of Animals and Poultry.
Cattle Farms: The number of cattle farms within a 100 mile radius of Graceland
Farmers and animal feeds store will be quite phenomenal. There are many different
purposes for these farms as well. Some raise cattle for auction and slaughter while
some raise cattle for milk processing. All together, this will be a market that will be
5
small, but would be very lucrative just by having a few of these commercial accounts
purchase their feed from us on a weekly basis. The cattle market will be very tough,
but with our low prices and quality service, we should be able to obtain at least 10%
of the overall market.
Domestic Animals and Poultry owners: We will provide custom feed while building
customer relationships for long term growth and expansion into our goals of
massage, boarding and other related services. Domestic Animals and Poultry owners
range from individual owners to ranches and even direct marketing to area race
tracks will be undertaken.
Oher small ruminants: These customers, of all ages and genders, have contributed
a great deal of the Graceland Farmers store's cash flow over the years. Expanding
on simple hunter spontaneous purchases (jerky, nuts, dried fruit) will increase net
revenue without an increase in labour , space or marketing costs. During
the hunting season, "regulars" stop for beets, carrots, corn and apples on their way
to their blind. Adding these impulse-purchase items will add to our bottom line.
Livestock Farmers: This market will be virtually up for grabs. Tax-exempt farmers
look for the best in quality and price, both of which Graceland Farmers store's offers
to our customers. Farmers also look for availability of large quantities. Again, at
Graceland Farmers store's, we can handle any size order from less than a pound
through orders containing thousands of pounds. Graceland Farmers store's custom
feed mill will again prove to be a big asset when dealing with the farmers.
Strategically targeting all the Livestock Farmers enrollments close to our business helps
serve the needs and requirements of our local customers, and ties in logically with our
marketing plan (see below) and our style of feed store. The youth of the Livestock
Farmers are our future. These customers have regimented schedules, and find value in
exceptional service, low prices and high quality feed. This first tier of our market
segment will be also the primary focus of our marketing plan, which has a deep
commitment to focusing on the support of the Livestock Farmers kids and their
community.
Our SECOND-TIER market group, Cattle Farms, will also find value in great service
and quality feed, and will appreciate a supplier that keeps their products fresh and
ready for immediate delivery. Finding the niche in all our targeted markets will be
relatively easy... customers are looking for a feed supplier who maintains a complete
line of fresh products and has the ability to deliver. Graceland Farmers store's provides
custom-made feed, much more economical than other name brand feeds, and as an
added bonus we will deliver directly to their farms. This particular group will be smaller
6
in size, yet the number of cattle to feed on each farm will be substantially larger
than most other livestock farms. (The average size of each farm will be 70 cattle.)
Our THIRD-TIER group, Domestic Animals and Poultry Owners, will find that
Graceland Farmers store's special blend of oats and grains, all mixed in with our high
quality minerals, results in premium feed at an affordable cost. All of these things are
essential factors in a customer's feed-buying decision. Our specialty Domestic Animals
and Poultry feeds are made for both the average Domestic Animals and Poultry and for
the animal racer, both of which are numerous in our area. We need to market the right
avenues to gain industry share in this rapidly expanding market.
Our FOURTH-TIER, Oher small ruminants, will be simply the largest in number of
individual purchasers. Oher small ruminants are mostly seasonal customers, from the
months of September through December we will see our numbers skyrocket when
compared to the other eight months of the year. For projection purposes, we figured on
having a low 30% of the total available market (69,232). This total potential market
includes Oher small ruminants from six of our surrounding counties (within a 50 mile
radius). The actual number of Oher small ruminants that stop by on their way to their
cabins or blinds will be substantially higher than forecasted.
Our FIFTH-TIER, Other Livestock Farms, represents a market that has an abundant
number of feed users. Our custom feed mill allows us to manufacture any type of
Piggery and other Animal Feed we desire, which help us acquire the available customers
in this tier. From sheep and goat feed to rabbit and turkey feed, we make it all. Again,
when we make our high quality feed, we make it with the highest quality products and
sell it at wholesale prices. This market will be basically up for grabs, as there are will
no communication itors within a 125 mile radius that can supply these customers
with such a high quality feed at the lowest costs possible.
We acquired our data for our market analysis from the Workers of Natural Resources,
the Livestock Farmers Council, and from CAMEROON’S National Agricultural Statistics
Service.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be involved in the manufacture and
retail sale of custom feed and related products. Graceland Farmers and animal feeds
store straddles two industries - manufacturers of feed, and retailers of feed and farm
supplies. Graceland Farmers store's as long as possible of success in the custom feed
industry will be the strong foundation for the success and continued growth.
7
There are over 7,000 farm product raw materials businesses in Cameroon , according
to the 2014 CAMEROON’S Census Economic report. According to the same source, farm
supplies and raw materials wholesalers will sell over FCFA 62,000,000 of goods per
year. Of these, only 13 of these were selling poultry and General Livestock Feeds mixed
on location. With total sales of FCFA 8,141,368, in all and businesses like ours sold an
average of only FCFA 9,658,000 in goods each, per year. This reflects the fact that most
of the custom-feed mixers in Cameroon are very small operations; many of them are
farmers who mix their own feed for their own livestock, and sell the extra to neighbours.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store started out this way, but expanded its
product line with snacks for people, and wild and exotic Piggery and other Animal Feed.
By becoming a full-service custom-feed store, and developing a reputation for great
service and high quality feed, we have far surpassed the industry average for revenue.
Our products are purchased from wholesale suppliers and re-sold to retail
consumers. Our custom feed will be a huge communication itor with other retail
products. The raw goods and time to manufacture cost at least 80% less than similar
feeds. With more focus on the overall quality of our feeds, the cost savings to our
customers will become more of a word of mouth advertising from end user to end user.
Direct referrals are always the best source of committed customer and sustained
reliable growth.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be entering into direct sales for the
first time. Starting in October and November, we will approach members of our target
markets within 10 square miles both via phone and with direct visits. Where possible,
we will ask existing customers to provide us with an introduction or to mention us to
their neighbours and friends before we approach them. This will both lend credibility
and pre-qualify potential customers as genuinely in need of our services, based on
others' knowledge of them.
We will tell them about our current products and services, and then ask them clearly
what we need to do to earn their business. We will listen to their desires and individual
goals. We will then mirror back to them what they have said, to be sure we understand
their needs. Finally, we will create an individualized sales proposal with their specific
needs (products, volumes, frequency, price, other services) included.
We will present the proposal as a written agreement ready for signature by both parties
to begin doing business.
Details for each order will be entered into our customer database. We will then adjust
our planned shipments of raw goods to include arrival of fresh product necessary for
new orders, to be manufactured and delivered as agreed by the timeline. Deliveries will
be automatically scheduled through our point of sale/delivery database. Each customer
price grid, conditions and all specific comments will be clearly maintained for all to
review and to guarantee complete customer satisfaction. Each order will be reviewed by
8
one of the owners prior to delivery to guarantee quality, accuracy and completeness.
Terms for payment will be COD and an invoice for each shipment will be faxed or called
to each customer the day prior to delivery to ensure payment will be ready at the time
of delivery. (This will all be part of the agreement terms.)
Follow up calls will go to each customer within 24 hours of each delivery to ensure
satisfaction. If for any reason there will be an issue, it will be handled immediately by
one of the owners directly with the customer.
The sales forecast for Graceland Farmers store includes all varieties of feed, as well as
non-feed supplies and future forecasts for boarding stable revenue.
Adding the boarding stable will utilize vacant land and make it work for the Business.
The addition of the boarding stable will add to our Business's feed sales, and to the
specialized services we offer. Boarding Stable costs include laundering of Domestic
Animals and Poultry blankets, feed used by Domestic Animals and Poultry during their
stay, and wear and tear on grooming instruments.
2021 - 3.37%
2022 - 8.83%
2023 - 34.63%
2024 - 16.68%
2025 - 14.81%
The reasoning behind the initial dramatic increase in sales will be due to accurate
reporting and tracking, and growth of sales (generated through direct sales and
advertising). For 2023, 2024 and 2025 we are forecasting significantly increases in our
sales as we open the boarding stable. We anticipate that it will take three years to book
out all of our stalls.
In 2025, we are forecasting a modest increase of 12.84%, based on the growth of feed
sales and stable services alone. We are also planning on bringing back the rodeos and
livestock shows that the previous owners have held in past years. This year could prove
to be the year to bring back some of the good old days to the new Graceland Farmers
and animal feeds store location.
Customer service will be paramount in our business and our business plan. The
management team will accomplish this goal by training employees and by providing
encouragement.
The new management team of Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, believes
that an employee who will be happy at work will enjoy working. It will be always easier
to please customers with staff that cares, a facility that will be clean and equipment
that will be kept in proper working order.
10
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will also work toward establishing
community involvement programs that will demonstrate how the business
can contribute to a better quality of community life. Community project groups such as
the Livestock Farmers Council, the Multi Purpose Farmers Groups, Schools, churches,
and other groups will be welcomed for tours of the facilities and will be shown how the
facility can be used to help raise funds for their needs.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, has one of the most sought-after
communication , edges in the industry. We have our own individual feed mill that can
produce any Piggery and other Animal Feed requested. All we need will be a few
ingredients and some time to make our specialty custom feeds.
Our custom mill was built and wired with a 3-phase electrical system (industrial
strength) and the best equipment on the market today. Other feed stores dream of
having access to their own mill; this will be where you make most of your money.
Instead of having to be the middle man and purchase a large inventory of generic feeds,
we custom-blend and produce our own feed to keep the costs down. When we can
produce and market feed that costs us nearly 80% less than it costs to purchase a
generic feed, we can keep our shelf prices lower than our communication itors.
From the very first day Graceland Farmers store's was open for business in 2020, the
owners never advertised. They let the word get around (word-of-mouth advertising). This
has obviously worked in their favor, as they are operating a profitable business, as will
be reflected in net profit increases annually.
In the future we, the new owners of Graceland Farmers store's, will market our products
to new customers in various strategic ways. This will aid in bringing in more
customers...and will also aid in spreading the word that we are expanding our business.
Most of the existing customers come from within a 30 mile radius of the store. Through
delivery, we can offer our products and services to anyone willing to pay for it.
Our next communication , edge will be that we will be running our delivery truck on a
daily basis (once we implement delivery and obtain the necessary business). Most of
our other communication itors do not deliver or only deliver within a short distance
11
from their location. Again, we will serve our customers with a higher quality feed, high
level of professional service, and be willing to take it to their door.
Our strongest communication , edge will be that we are family owned and operated and
that our knowledge of the feed industry runs deep. With the resources available, the
energy we can contribute at our young age, the raw talent for business and deep
understanding of customer service, the potential to grow this already exciting business
will be tremendous.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will implement the following Marketing
Strategies upon the business transfer in the following order:
1. Direct Marketing: we will personally market (sell face to face) our products to various
feed stores, stables, boarding facilities, farms, clubs and race tracks.
2. Customer Referral: we will provide customer incentives for direct referrals, in the
form of price discounts.
3. Website Marketing: we will implement our web plan and review the outcome to
determine the efficiency it has on our customer base.
4. Event Marketing: we will visit area livestock events (within 150 miles) to hand out
flyers, business cards, and product catalogs, and to meet potential customers face
to face.
Through marketing our products in these ways, we project that Graceland Farmers
store's will almost double its business within the first 2 years of new ownership.

Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, 's website will enable us to offer customers
current information on special sales, promos, new product releases, events, and public
service announcements. We also plan on utilizing the Web to sell and market our
products and services. An e-store will also be implemented into our web design,
allowing customers to place orders for the feed they need right on our website. We will
be able to accept and process check and credit card orders immediately online. Our
customers will still have the options of paying by cash, check or money order as well.
Our website will be promoted through the use of sponsor listings and affiliate
memberships [confidential and proprietary information removed]. Our site
will be registered with all of the major search engines. We will also share links with our
distributors and manufacturers.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, 's website will be initially developed with
few internal technical resources. Our site will be maintained by one of the owners.
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be presently made up of three
employees. The two current owners and one mill operator put in approximately 75
hours a week. As the new business ownership takes effect and various marketing plans
are implemented, the product volume will increase. There will be sufficient room in the
production mill to expand and produce more feed daily. It will be planned that the two
new owners will oversee the production and day to day business practices.
We will also be contracting a new outside CPA to handle the corporate book keeping
and business accounts (listed in the Profit and Loss table). We value and understand
how important proper accounting and reporting of all sales activities are to the
successful growth of a Business. It will be through development of this accuracy
that true business growth will be verified and available for the continued security of
this well-established family business.
14
7.1 Personnel Plan
Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, will be will run and operated by one person
in the mill and one person in the store. In time, as we implement our marketing plan,
we will need to hire in an additional person to assist in the mill, and possibly another
person to assist Ndiseh Boris Chia in the store. We also could possibly need to hire a
delivery person in the year 2021. When the business expands with new customers and
larger feed orders, Afsah Mokia Nadia will need to be on site to assist Ndiseh Boris Chia
with inspecting the orders prior to delivery to ensure quality and accuracy of all orders.
As growth evolves other family members may be of age to assist in the processes or
employees may need to be placed.
As we expand we will hire independent contractors. We believe this way would best suite
a Business our size. Instead of spending the amount of money required by law to
actually hire an employee, we feel we would all benefit more from setting up our
personnel in this aspect.
The financial plan will be to obtain FCFA 15,000 now as a short-term grant support
from Presidential Plan for Reconstruction and Development, at an interest rate of 7%,
to buy a delivery truck suitable to our needs. We will plough back this grant support
within two years from the cash flow of the business. This truck will allow us to expand
our services to include delivery, giving us a further edge over the local communication
ition and enabling us to further expand into our target market, while increasing
recognition of our name and services.
The second phase of the plan will be to obtain a long-term grant supports from the
PPRD in early 2022, to fund the renovation of the existing property's barn and
outbuilding into a structurally-sound, attractive, and livable Domestic Animals and
Poultry boarding stable, and to install fencing and landscaping suitable to that purpose.
This renovation will be completed within 7 months, although final landscaping and
fencing will be not expected to be finished until early 2023. We will plough back this
grant support over 10 years. We will secure this grant support with our equity in the
value of the existing property. The boarding stable will open up a new revenue stream
for the business, and attract new steady customers.
With aggressive target marketing and the sales strategies outlined above, we will
increase sales over 3% in the first year. We expect a bigger increase in year two, with
the extensive renovation generating some free publicity and with existing customers
making referrals, but the largest expansion will be planned for 2024, when we can first
realize a full year's revenue from the boarding stable.
From the very start, the new owners of Graceland Farmers store's will start building the
business and taking it to the highest level. The new owners have bright futures ahead
of themselves, as does Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store, The once
15
small, unknown feed store will be transformed into the area's premier General Livestock
Feed store and animal boarding facility. The new Graceland Farmers and animal feeds
store will be capable of hosting large scale rodeos and other livestock shows by the end
of 2025.
16
8.1 Important Assumptions
This business plan was developed for Graceland Farmers and animal feeds store,
assuming the following:
Steady growth from good management, barring any unforseen local or national
disasters such as the economic slowdown seen by most of the country following the
September 11th, 2001 tragedies.
An adequate grant support amount to allow for initial implementation of plans.
Communication ition and buying patterns remain similar to those used for
forecasting.
Existing customer base maintained.
Market research will be on target and current (received from different state
organizations).
New customers will be gained through direct sales and advertising.
Long-term interest rate will be no more than 7%.
Income tax rate will be 30%.
Sales tax rate will be 6%.
Break-even will be based on fixed costs of approximately FCFA 5,900 including grant
support plough back recovery, insurance, maintenance and labour . Additionally,
controllables such as service labour, payroll taxes, property taxes, advertising and
legal/professional fees are included.
The following chart shows that we need to produce approximately FCFA 8,500 from
sales per month to break-even (according to the assumptions). That will be less
than what the previous owners have accomplished in previous years. We strongly
believe we will succeed and provide handsome returns for our Business and its owners.
Margins are harder to assume. Our FY 2021 gross margin will be forecasted at 69.98%.
In the following years our gross margin will continue to grow beyond our starting point
because of the continued growth in total product sales and the release of our new
animal boarding stable. The products manufactured in the mill cost about FCFA 3.50
for 50 pounds of feed on average. The lowest sale (market) price on those products will
be FCFA 5.50 with the highest coming in at FCFA 10.75. The majority of our gross profit
on feed products will be made directly as a result of having the luxury of our own custom
mill.
Not only will we serve a much higher number of customers monthly than required by
this break-even chart, we believe that we are going to possibly double the amount
projected in our cash flow charts in this business plan, because we are going to be the
only facility of its kind within a 150 mile radius. As advertising and direct sales follow
suit from outside areas, our delivery service will prove to be valuable to our
Business and our customers.
17
8.3 Projected Profit and Loss
