The paper bag business plan is for a company that will manufacture paper products, typically in bulk, and provide them on a wholesale basis to buyers in the commercial or retail sphere. Whether you envision making small custom bags geared toward small business or larger paper containers meant for industrial clients, the business plan will need a complete pro forma financial model showing how you plan to allocate seed capital and what you think the possible revenues for the company will be. The paper bag business plan should have a thoughtful forecast that ties into basic market data and a list of assumptions you've generated. It should also address:
• The presence of competition
• The threats/risks with this business model
• The marketing plan you'll implement
• The team you have in place
• The schedule for loan repayment or a statement of the investor's share
The paper bag business plan also needs to demonstrate that your products will be unique enough and/or competitively priced to ensure that you can capture a sufficient market share. This means making a section that articulates the advantages behind your product and business model, in addition to performing enough competition research to show how you'll be positioned against other providers. Additional topics to cover in the business plan might include an on-site recycling program, how you obtain the "feeder" paper products, the machinery required for the manufacturing center and its depreciation rate, and the personnel required to run the machines and distribute the end products.
