extra product and
exclusiveness to the
event

ETHICAL AND SOCIAL CONSIDERATIONS
bull While opening manufacturing in India give fair wages

communities in the US and abroad
(wwwknowthiscom)
Our plan objectives are to bring in young amp trendy designers with

segment
With the estimated initial cost of $12 million to sign artist and start
the new team of designers and urban department With an
increase of annual salaries being close to a million for the
department over the life of AampF Urban the loss will be well worth it
with the anticipation of AampF Urban boosting sales 45 worldwide
In conclusion with the right street wear coming off the line
attached to AampF brand the urban market sales could quite
possibly double worldwide sales or even triple them The apparel
industry in the US has been growing rapidly especially the urban

Having team leadersdepartment heads meet directly (over the phone) with project
leadership (our group) on a weekly basis
THE ROLL-OUTTo maximize the potential of this move we must make
some amazing breakthroughs

do this we will start a marketing scheme including
dropping off truckloads of the new improved clothes
to highly populated urban cities ie Brooklyn
Atlanta Chicago Oakland
