 PREFACE

The combination of theoretical knowledge and practical knowledge is more necessary for

depends on practical knowledge. The business of the world is sure to be changing by

INTRODUCTION

Introduction

Garments exporting sector is one of the emerging export sectors of our country. Today
this sector not only earns foreign currency but also provides a lot of unemployed people
in productive sector. Day by day common sector exports are decreasing because of
economic recession all over the world. In this situation garments industry can be a
potential in boosting exports. Besides, garments exporting industries is one of the
emerging sectors of export. So if proper opportunity and importance can be given to this
sector, this sector will add more value to the amount of our foreign currency. Moreover,
in developed countries demand for garments item is increasing gradually. So, if this
industry can utilize the opportunity, more and more foreign currency can be earned. For
these above reason, we have selected garments industry for our Industrial tour program.
We have visited a garments manufacturing unit. So, the following Report is prepared on
“Four H apparels limited”
 OBJECTIVE OF THE STUDY

The main objective of this study is to fulfill the academic requirement as well as together
practical and theatrical knowledge about the company. This practical knowledge will
help us face challenges in our future business career. In addition to the principle
objectives, the following are some of the common but significant objectives of this type
of study:
 To evaluate the overall Fabric Inspection, Storage and Cutting section of
Four H Apparels Ltd.
 To acquire knowledge about organizational accessory department of Four
H Apparels Ltd
 To study the challenges of Four H Apparels Ltd.
 To give some recommendations.
 SCOPE AND METHODS OF THE STUDY

This report is prepared as a requirement of B. B.A 4th year program and was confined to
only one sample enterprise Four H Apparels Ltd.

Factories like, Four H Apparels Ltd. may not be representative of the garments industry
as a whole.

A lot of materials and information were required for the preparation of this Industrial
Tour Report. The methodology followed for the purpose of the study has been interview
with associate representative and practical field observation. I have collected Information
from both primary and secondary sources with the help of a field survey to prepare this
report.

The main sources of primary data sources as under:

 Direct conversation with the responsible representatives of the Production

manager and HR manager, Compliance officer of “Four H Apparels Ltd.”

 Practical field observation

The secondary sources of data include as under-

 Various documents such as organization organogram, Workers guidelines,

booklet, Code of conduct guidelines are used in preparing this report.

 Company Website: http://fourhgroup.com

In this report I have followed the guidelines provided by my honorable teacher.

 LIMITATIONS OF THE STUDY

The study has been conducted subject to certain constraints-

1. As it has been allowed only one day for the Industrial tour, which is not enough
to study the Industry in depth.
2. For the Company strategy, the authority not providing confidential financial and
marketing data. In view of the business strategic division, the company has been
found to be hesitant in furnishing relevant data.
3. The rate of success of my study may be limited as I might have failed to collect
proper information due to lack of my experience

I, therefore, hope that this report will be evaluated with an approach subject to the
recognition of the above-mentioned shortcomings.

Working Environment that found:

Visiting at Four H Group was a great experience for me. I have learnt many things from
them. From my little knowledge what I have observed and some recommendations are as
follows:
It was very interesting working at a Garments Industry. The people there are really nice
and talented. The things that I have noticed and observed are:

 Work environment is very friendly and employees are co-operative.

 Employees are active and sincere to their assigned job responsibilities.
 Work is never left pending for the next day unless it is absolutely necessary.
 The work process could be made faster with better computers and operating
systems.
 There is always a rush of customers so there is no standard on what the
employees do throughout the day. The work activities of an employee are set, but
what to do when varies along the day.
 The work activities are always set and divided for each of the employees. This is
the way it should be, but when I saw it firsthand it was remarkable. Each and
every employee has a certain set of responsibilities. He/she carries out those
responsibilities throughout the day. It is also easy to assign duties that way. Even
though this is the case, I often saw other staff members helping each other out.
 There is less coordination between casual staffs like tea boy, peon and cleaner

Challenges and Recommendations

Challenges faced by Four H Apparels limited

The major problems that are confronted by this company in case of fabric inspection,
storage and cutting department are given below-

 Sometimes raw materials problem, fabric quality doesn’t match with quality.

 Rent of land is too high. As day by day the demand for land is increasing
that’s why it increases the cost of rent.

 Unskilled workers and supervisors can’t run high tech machines. New
technology can hamper their routine work due to lack experience at that
technology.

 Sometimes Government rules and regulations, Exchange rate, tax, trades

policy, trade relation with other country restrict normal production option.

 High cost of heavy machineries. As all automated machine are purchased

from abroad, the cost of machine is too high.

 For political instability, raw materials import hampered, for this cause
shipment sometime cancelled and company bearing loss.

 Transportation cost increasing as the cost of fuel increased, which increased

the cost of raw materials that are input from other countries.

 Labor market shortages with specific skill shortages in various areas such as
fabric inspection, production, engineering, accounting and all trades.

 Retention problems of skilled employees. Day by day the worker who

gathered knowledge and make a huge experienced, the company failed to
retain.

 Competitiveness among Export Oriented Industries.

Recommendation

 In order to improve the quality consistency and integration, proper training

and development is required for both production floor workers and
management staffs. This will increase the moral and improve efficiency and
productivity of the total workforce of the organization.

 The company must have to appoint at least medium educated & skilled
person. Because it is very easy to training a literate person rather than a
totally illiterate person.

 The company can develop the advertising promotion so that the product can
reach to the customer more and more.

 To meet the increasing international demand for this company’s

undergarments products Four H Apparels limited must have to expand its
production capacity.

 The company must have to maintain and develop the quality standard to
retain the buyers in today’s economic rescission period. For doing this
technological improvement and R &D is a must.

 Sound communication should be established between managing directors to

Head office auditors. Steps to be taken to provide proper data & information.

 Effective personnel management should be set up. Various motivations will

be provided to workers for sound production.
