The project
KAUFMANNSLADEN in Soltau combines brick-and-mortar retail with e-commerce. The store serves customers locally and across regions via its online shop.
The store is open Monday to Friday from 10:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. and Saturdays from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The focus is on regional service and personal customer advice.
The challenge
Bank financing was needed for the start-up. The concept – brick-and-mortar retail combined with online sales – required a convincing business plan that mapped both sales channels and demonstrated economic viability.
Our solution
Business Start EU prepared a business plan with:
- Market analysis for retail in the Soltau region
- Concept for combining the physical store and online shop
- Financial planning with investment and revenue forecast
- Support with bank financing
The result
The bank financing was approved. KAUFMANNSLADEN is in operation and serves customers both in the physical store and through the online shop.
