1.2 – BUSINESS DESCRIPTION
Because everyone requires socks to protect their feet when wearing shoes, socks are a
very necessary and simple item to sell. Additionally, because socks are beneficial, the
elderly also wear them while they sleep.
Customers adore high-quality socks because they feel so cozy while wearing them.
Selling high-quality socks can draw in a lot of buyers.
The socks business is likewise less at our place of business. Consequently, this is a
potential opportunity for our company to expand.

Choosing a business location is not something that can be done in a whim, it is a crucial step
in starting a business. A business location strategy takes planning and research and a
willingness to thoroughly vet all of the options. Firstly, we need to decide on a business
location type. Starting from an online based shop, DANEA Socks has grown gradually, we
needed more space. By operating a manufacturing or distribution business we will have
special needs and will likely have limited choices when it comes to opening a new location.
Industrial sites are what we have in mind as we are a growing company that requires large
amounts of warehousing space, we need the access to major transportation routes.
One of the major priorities of finding a location is that making sure it fits within our company’s
budget. We need to consider the purchase price and monthly rent. Other than that,
something’s that needed to take account for is taxes, renovations, utility upgrades, minimum
wage requirements, and economic incentives. We have narrowed it down to several
industrial sites, and we have come up with a decision unanimously that the industrial site
located at E-10, Enterprise 4, Technology Park Malaysia, Lebuhraya Bukit Jalil, Bukit
Jalil,57000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur is the best for our
business.
1. Accessibility
Our Business requires frequent deliveries therefore, it provides local transport links
such as main roads and motorways.
2. Security Factors

3. Competition
Establishing which competitors are in our area and their offering helped us to choose
the right location for our business. There is too much competition in our previous
area, and we have come in conclusion to expand our horizons to a new location.
Moving premises is a big upheaval and can be time consuming and costly. But our
company is in for the long haul and will be to accommodate business growth and
spikes in demand.

The Company’s Name is a combination of all the shareholder’s name. The combination of
names is to get the opportunity to create a new identity that is special to all of us. It is a
union with equal weight. When merging names, it acts of establishment that we are all equal
partners. The reason we choose white as the color of the background is because white

and right, and we use it symbolically in opposition to black. White is the color of certainty, of
illumination, and of insight, and we associate it with knowledge and learning. White is
