Handicrafts Exporters
"Art is not a handicraft, it is the transmission of feeling the artist has experienced." - Leo Tolstoy
Moradabad the "Brass City" famous for its huge export of brass handicrafts to North America, Europe and all over the world is very much perplexed these days. Their business is stumbling - going down by around 60 percent this year.
For the beginners, Moradabad is renowned for its brass work and has carved a niche for itself in the handicraft industry throughout the world. The main crafts are the modern and attractive brass ware, jewelry and trophies made by skilled artisans by loads of hard work and sheer creativity. The artistic brass ware is exported to countries like United States, Britain, Canada, Germany, Middle East Asia etc. The quality of artefacts is often so fine that it usually leaves the foreign patrons gobsmacked, yearning for more. No doubt, there are about 600 export units and 5000 industries in the district. Moradabad exports goods worth around Rs. 2200 crore (USD 500 million) every year.
The brassware exporters are concerned about the fall in demand not just from US or UK, but also from the European Union. Indian Government still maintains that it is investing a lot of money to improve infrastructural facilities to promote the industrial activities at Moradabad like 24 hours UN-interrupted power supply, construction of By-pass etc. However the brassware exporters are not fully convinced with government's line of action.
Brass industry is being developed as a small scale industry in Moradabad. According to news reports, about 450 acres of land has been acquired to develop a new industrial area for Export Oriented Units (EOUs) at Pakbara to Dingarpur Road. Thus this could be a good opportunity for new entrepreneurs to establish their brassware projects.
The popular brass handicrafts that are mostly sought after are brass statues, brass figures, European statues, brass articles, brass candle holders, brass candle stands, brass cross statues, brass flower vase et al. Many buyers also like brass urns, brass artware, brass flower vase, brass statues, brass vases and brass wall hangings.
Industry insiders reveal that the main challenge before the Indian brass handicrafts industry is to involve the disenchanted local youth population to take this occupation as their full time business. They further say that the next important step would be to give them proper training (including technical innovations and marketing basics). The last step would be to make them fully understand the huge potential of this business. Unless and until a compelling drive is initiated, the brass industry of Moradabad could fade into oblivion.

Finance Companies
Your company carries it. You need to finance it. We're of course talking about inventory. Discussions with clients reveal a lot of misconceptions around inventory financing in Canada. Let's try and resolve some of those myths around the financing of your inventory, who the players are, who they are not ( that's the most common myth ) and we'll also try and provide some straight forward direction on next steps in your inventory financing challenge.
The overall quality of your inventory management will play a large part in your ability to finance your products, which are a part of the current assets component of your balance sheet. You cannot overlook the importance that an inventory lender will place on your ability to report and count your products. The reality is that most firms are either carrying a ' continuous' or ' 'periodic' system of inventory control.
So here is solid tip # 1 - be aware that inventory lenders prefer a continuous type of inventory accounting, for all the obvious reasons. Essentially you are counting and monitoring inventory (with the use of software of course!) at all times. That's a good thing when it comes to a lenders valuation on an ongoing basis and their ability to lend.
You're company is growing. Unfortunately so is your inventory! And that places a huge drain on your cash flow. The working capital cycle dictates that cash turns into inventory which turns into receivables and then we start all over... that lag can be anywhere from 60 - 120 days, sometimes longer. Never underestimate the problem that higher sales will bring to your inventory financing needs.
Clients typically are looking for inventory financing because the level of investment that you have in product and receivables drains your cash flow. As sales volumes increase your cash flow decreases based on your overall collection period of A/R and of course those inventory turns.
Your sales staff of course never wants to be in a position to tell a customer you don't have the product they have worked so hard to sell.
Does your company have an inventory financing strategy? The majority of firms we talk to in Canada, certainly in the small and medium business sector do not have access to the inventory financing they need. Do true inventory financing companies exist in Canada? We feel that the answer is generally ' no ', they do not. However if your firm would consider an asset based lending scenario that in effect takes the place of inventory finance companies in Canada.
Under an asset based lending strategy your inventory is margined for what its worth, by experts who categorically know what its worth. You will enhance your ability to finance your product if you have the controls, reporting, and inventory accounting system in places that makes the inventory and asset based lender ' comfortable '.
