social media pages, on Instagram, Facebook and twitter. These pages will offer full access to the
latest offerings and allow clients to experience the brand’s product offerings and designer
updates 24-hours a day from the comfort of their homes. In the future, as the brand picks up and
begins to achieve brand recognition, it is intended that Gotti Clothing Apparel will have a
flagship store in Lagos, Nigeria and contracts will be entered into with fashion retailers and big
corporations needing our ready-to-wear collections. Currently several company brands and
worldwide retailers such as Amazon, Walmart, Aliexpress, Tmall, Jumia, Mercadolibre etc, have
been identified as potential partners. Also, key buyer contacts at each of the retailers have been
obtained.

Company’s Goal
Gotti Apparel major goal is to start as an intermediate fashion firm and expand to be a global
brand within its first five year. In order to accomplish this, sales must significantly increase
between year two and three. The management team hopes to start distributing throughout the rest

With current sales forecasts, we will be making money by the end of year two, and to further

Our company values

Values have become an ethical foundation for all organizations and are therefore fundamental to
our success. Such values are not just important but crucial to the overall ascendancy of Gotti
Apparel. The following values have been identified and adopted by us:
▪ Innovation
▪ Customer obsession
▪ Excellence
▪ Versatility
▪ Highest standards
▪ Trust & Reliability

Strategy

Our strategy is to aggressively develop and market a full range collection to consumers. The
company intends to market its line as an alternative to existing clothing lines and differentiate
itself through its marketing strategies, exclusiveness, and brand awareness. Gotti Apparel
intends to build on its core portfolio of products and overcome any obstacles by using the
company’s expertise in the clothing industry.

The company’s goal in forthcoming business year is to make an overwhelming impact on the
fashion industry and create a large consumer demand for the product. The company’s goal in
the next 5 years is to venture into high-end clothing for all age-range.

Keys to Success
Gotti Apparel is aiming at a middle-class clientele, as well as the elite population. Some of
the biggest fashion houses today have substantial budgets for marketing and for fashion
shows/weeks which keeps the buzz constantly on them. Through these runway shows they are able
to showcase their latest offerings, surrounded by glitz and glamour thereby attracting customers,
leading the way in trends, and retaining the loyalty of their customer base. Established lines and

Page | 3
fashion houses not only communicate trends, but they also create scenes showing their products in
use.

Because our company does not currently have the budget to compete with bigger fashion
houses, Gotti, will rely partly on established list of clienteles and valuable partnerships which would
be developed over the years. Gotti plans on forging long-term relationships which will be key in the
success of Gotti Apparel. In addition, Gotti Apparel will have an active presence on social media
including Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. This presence will enable Gotti Apparel to attract buyers
both locally and beyond. Pictures and video would be frequently posted on social media including
Facebook and Instagram projecting the brand as an urban African street brand. Through this the
brand would be able to attract many curious fashion enthusiasts and turn them into loyal customers.

Loyalty is hard to win. The fashion customer is very fickle. To overcome this, we will not
compromise any part of our business. We will remain consistent and true to our vision and our
mission. Gotti Apparel will thoroughly cater to the needs and wants of our customers base to build
trust in the brand. We believe that word of mouth and inspiring imagination are the purest way to
build the reputation of a fashion brand.

Additionally, the company has dedicated a portion of all the profits to be used in educating
and empowering African farmers dedicating their lives to providing quality eco-friendly materials
for the production of the fabric’s designers use across the country. As we strongly believe in giving
back to the society. Our customers have the comfort of knowing that not only are they buying high
quality designs but are also giving back to the communities around them. Overall loyalty is
developed by fulfilling the needs and wants of our buyers. Through our design quality, exceptional
customer service and dedication to the communities around us, the brand is confident that it will be
able to win the long-term loyalty of its clients.
