BUSINESS PLAN

A business plan may be prepared for a new business or for expanding the existing business.

A business plan is used for negotiations with investors, banks, funds and other financial institutions in order to attract financial resources.

Business plans can also be prepared for the government projects, for example: the Agro-Credit Project, the Project “Produce in Georgia”, co-funding of agricultural products processing enterprises, etc.

A business plan’s content, form, and structure may significantly differ according the business’ sphere, specifics, and the scale of the target audience.

The average duration (length) of the business plan reaches up to 4 weeks. The period depends on the data retrieved for processing the qualified business plan and how well it is modified to a business model.
