Potential Risks
- Shortages of mustard seed supply: Mustard seed is a seasonal crop. Buying it in the off-season makes the production cost go up significantly. Moreover, the crops that are available in the off-season often fail to meet the standard quality.
- Hazi Altaf Oil Mill’s strategy: The business normally purchases mustard seed in bulk during the on-season time. In case of off-season procuring, the business uses its well-established network to find the standard quality product.
- Shortages of electricity supply: The manufacturing and processing plant runs on electricity. Any prolonged load-shedding can hamper the production immensely. This will ultimately result in a significant drop in sales. This may impact any manufacturing based business because there are only very limited alternatives for this issue.
- Dependency on credit sales: The business has to allow credit sales to the wholesale customers (renowned brands). If the payment collection cycle gets derailed due to any avoidable/ unavoidable situation, the business will face significant financial troubles.
- Hazi Altaf Oil Mill’s strategy: The business has formal contract with most of its major wholesale buyers. This safeguards the business from any significant delays or bad debts. Moreover, the business operates both retail and wholesale wings. This allows the business to generate revenue from two separate sources. The business generates a good margin of profits from its retail sales. This helps the business to stay afloat in times of any cash crunch.
- Inflation: An increase in the price of raw materials would have an effect on selling prices to local buyers, possibly resulting in a decrease in sales volume.
- Hazi Altaf Oil Mill’s: The business is planning to make some bulk purchases with the funding. This step is expected to mitigate the price hike issue to a tolerable level.
- Possibility of political turmoil following the upcoming election: Our assessment assumes that there will be some macroeconomic turmoil towards the end of 2023 before the general election. This may impact any business.
biniyog.io has done in-house analyses of the projected returns of the business and they are expected to be able to repay on time, if not hugely impacted by macroeconomic issues.
biniyog.io will buy the products on behalf of investors first and secure ownership. The products will then be handed over to Hazi Altaf Oil Mill within a very short time frame.
Hazi Altaf Oil Mill would have the right to reject the products due to quality etc. The risk is expected to be minimal since Hazi Altaf Oil Mill themselves will be choosing the items before biniyog.io buys them.
This is a necessary risk to ensure Shariah compliance of the transaction.
Hazi Altaf Oil Mill will share instalment cheques with biniyog.io. Additionally, the business will be introducing a “guarantor” to the contract and a personal guarantee security cheque will be kept from the business owner.
