slower, a consequence of being a start-up business, struggling to become more visible within the
community, going from nothing to achieve a regular clientele. A steady growth cycle will occur
as the months pass. Profitability is projected to occur during the first half of the first year.
Considering an average price 20,000 birr per one piece of bike and 25,000 birr per one piece of
Scooter , ZEMAVOLT PLC, would need to sell 500 bikes and 500 scooter per year and 5000
rental Services per year for each bike and scooter to get total revenue from 11,725,000-
16,750,00 Per year . Using different methods and technologies we will able to sell 5 bike and 5

8.0 Exit Strategy
Zemavolt Electric Bikes and Scooter Shop is a student-owned business, therefore we have two
clearly outlined plans to leave the business in the future.
In the short term, if the owners are no longer able to run the business, then we can
sell it to an entrepreneur who resides locally or leave it to other students interested
in continuing the job.
In the long term, if we expand the company, we may sell it to a larger company or
bring in investors who can further expand it. So the founders can leave and still
ensure the business continues to grow.
Our main objective is to make sure Zemavolt continues to run successfully, even if ownership
changes.
