A clothing repair shop is a modest business that does not require large investments. It is suitable for those who are looking for a small but stable income. Such an atelier can be opened in a shopping center or in the basement of a residential building, and all that is needed for it is registration, equipment (sewing machine, etc.) and staff.
Instructions
Step 1
It is best to open a repair shop to those who are familiar with this business themselves - for example, who knows how to sew. Otherwise, the owner simply will not be able to control the quality of the work of the staff and will not understand what the client needs.
Step 2
As a rule, express-type ateliers are opened in shopping centers: work is done on the spot and quickly. For example, a customer bought pants, but they are long for him. He goes to the atelier and his trousers are cut into place. It is good if in the shopping center in which you decide to open a clothing repair shop there is a store of evening or wedding dresses - such dresses are very often sutured to fit or shortened. However, in this case, a master of the highest class should work in the atelier, since it is not easy to work with evening and wedding dresses.
Step 3
You can also open a clothing repair shop in the basement of a residential building. In this case, there will be no need to provide express services, you can fulfill orders within a few days. Your clients will be residents of nearby houses.
Step 4
Wherever you open a clothing repair shop, you will need equipment for it. It includes: mannequin, sewing machine, overlock, steam generator and more. If you are still not very confident in the sewing business, first hire a seamstress and give her the opportunity to choose the equipment on which it will be convenient for her to work.
Step 5
Any business must be registered by law. Therefore, when opening a clothing repair atelier, do not forget to register as an individual entrepreneur with the tax office at the place of registration.
