The carpentry business is stable even in times of economic crisis. With small financial investments and the right approach to organizing production, you will make a profit. A prerequisite for success is attracting regular customers.

There are segments of woodworking production that have not reduced their volumes even during the economic crisis.

Such sustainable industries include the carpentry business. While production volumes in the auto industry, mechanical engineering and construction have decreased by 50%, things are going quite well in the carpentry industry.

The opportunity to enter the carpentry business at relatively low financial costs makes it very attractive to enterprising and skillful people.

Production capabilities

The carpentry shop makes it possible to produce, serially or individually, a very impressive range of products and thus allows you to quickly respond to changes in demand. Most often, using carpentry equipment, they produce:

• Doors;
• Window;
• Stairs;
• Various interior elements;
• Furniture items;
• Equipment for restaurants, cafes, etc.;
• Moldings.

Financial investments

The amount of financial investment in this business has no clear boundaries. It all depends on the future specialization of production. If the carpentry workshop is supposed to be located in an individual garage, you can count on an income of approximately 50,000-100,000 rubles. monthly. At the same time, it is quite possible to produce a fairly diverse range of finished products.

A modest production of solid wood doors can be started for about $15,000-20,000. This amount includes renting premises (in industrial areas it will be inexpensive) and purchasing equipment for production. This amount is calculated for the purchase of domestic equipment: machines - thickness planer, jointer, milling machine, circular saw and additional imported tools.

Technological process

The sequence of operations in the process of manufacturing wooden interior items is as follows:

The first stage is wood harvesting: twigs and branches are removed from the sawn trunks, then sawed into bars and boards. Wood with defects is rejected. Next – drying to 6-8% humidity. The wood is now ready for use in carpentry.

The carpenter cuts the workpieces, taking into account the tolerances for the thickness of the tool. These blanks are subsequently subject to processing, since they inevitably become deformed during the preparation process. When finalized, they must acquire the required shape and size.

A jointing machine with mechanical or manual feed is designed for this purpose; longitudinal milling machine or thickness planer. After bringing the workpieces to the desired shape and parameters, they are trimmed on a cross-cut (single-saw) or end-to-end (double-saw) machine.

The second stage is the formation of tenons, eyes and grooves for fastenings. They are formed by flat and cylindrical milling on machines (milling and tenoning). If you need to make profiles, use a milling machine. Universal machines today can perform several operations: milling, sawing, thicknessing, grooving, drilling.

The third stage is sanding to prepare for cladding and finishing. For veneer veneering, wood is prepared on grinding machines with crawler and roller feed.

Fourth stage: gluing. The glue can be applied either manually or using a special machine. The parts are clamped using a clamp, clamp or clamp and fixed for a sufficient time for gluing.

If necessary, the workpiece can be lined. The pre-prepared workpiece is puttied, polished, and zinc-plated. Preparation of veneer includes marking, cutting, and jointing of edges. Next comes the lining operation in hydraulic presses.

Profitability

Like any business, carpentry production should be planned starting with sales. The safest and most inexpensive way to start your own business is to use the services of proven and experienced woodworking companies for some operations.

It’s not difficult to find many woodworking shops on the Internet. In addition, there is an exchange where you can buy small workshops, machines and used equipment at a profit. Naturally, it costs much less than a new one.

A simple example: one person needs to spend one or two days to make one wooden door. By simple calculations we come to the conclusion that 15 doors can be made in a month.

The simplest wooden door costs 3,000-4,000 rubles. Monthly turnover – from 45,000 to 60,000 rubles. We subtract the cost of wood, rent for premises, utility bills and the cost of consumables.

• Let’s say that the production of 15 doors will require 2-2.5 cubic meters of block (10,000-12,500 rubles).
• Payment for electricity is 300-500 rubles.
• Consumables – 500 rubles.
• Total, about 13,500 rubles.
• The profit in the draft version will be from 31,500 to 46,500 rubles per month.

Another example of a carpentry business is the production of balusters. You will need a lathe, a square meter of area, 220 V electricity and, in fact, wood. At a price of 5,000 rubles per cubic meter of timber, the cost of one piece for a 4x90 cm baluster will be about 7.92 rubles.

Electricity – approximately 8 kW/h per day. In retail, one baluster costs 200-250 rubles. It is quite possible to make 10-20 pieces per day. The monthly income is approximately 36,000-72,000 rubles.

And yet, for the sake of fairness, let’s clarify:

1. The economic effect will only be with a constant clientele (the work must be continuous, the load must be full).
2. Profit will directly depend on large orders of the same type of product, so that there is the possibility of operational distribution of workload among workers (everyone is busy only with their own operation, which will sharply increase productivity and, as a result, the output of finished products).

Products made from natural wood are classics that will never go out of fashion or lose relevance. Making wooden products can bring good dividends to its owner if the process is organized correctly. The carpentry workshop business plan presented below does not require large investments and is suitable for beginners who understand wood. The calculation example is based on a regional center.

Project estimate

In a business plan for a carpentry workshop in a small room, the following investments are planned:

Most of the finances are spent on purchasing equipment for carpentry production. To reduce costs, you can assemble some of the equipment yourself or order it from local craftsmen at an affordable price. The price of tools and machines may vary depending on the quality of the equipment, its manufacturer, and model.

You should not buy an old imported machine. The estimate will be reduced, but spare parts for the machine will cost you a pretty penny. The total estimate includes the cost of monthly expenses until the project begins to make its first profit. This money can be paid in gradually.

Project implementation planning

It is planned to launch the carpentry workshop within three months, from March 1 to May 31, in time for the start of construction work. In summer, the workshop receives more orders, as seasonality affects.

The phasing is scheduled according to certain dates, from which it is not recommended to deviate. The owner can delegate some of the responsibilities to a legal company, for example, registration of individual entrepreneurs. But this entails additional expenses.

Small production equipment

It is more profitable to purchase equipment for a carpentry workshop in bulk at a specialized shopping center. Legal entities for wholesale purchases have a discount from 10 to 25%.

Price and types of required equipment:

• Lathe (1 piece) – 65-120 thousand rubles.
• Vise (2 pcs.) – 6,000 rub. (total – 12,000 thousand rubles).
• Circular or miter saw (1 pc.) – 35 thousand rubles.
• Planer (2 pcs.) – 12 thousand rubles. (24 thousand rubles).
• Thicknesser (1 piece) – 85 thousand rubles.
• Electric drill (2 pcs.) – 3.5 thousand rubles. (7 thousand rubles).
• Milling cutter (2 pcs.) – 5 thousand rubles. (10 thousand rubles).
• Jigsaw (2 pcs.) – 2.5 thousand rubles. (5 thousand rubles).
• Electric planer (2 pcs.) – 2.4 thousand rubles. (4.8 thousand rubles).
• Screwdriver (2 pcs.) – 2.5 thousand rubles. (5 thousand rubles).
• Grinding machine (2 pcs.) – 2.8 thousand rubles. (5.6 thousand rubles).
• Hand tools (screwdrivers, hammers, saws, pliers) – 10 thousand rubles.
• Roulette (2 pcs.) – 80 rub. (160 rub.).
• Vernier calipers (2 pcs.) – 800 rub. (1.6 thousand rubles).
• Moisture meter (1 pc.) – 700 rub.
• Automatic sprayer for applying paint and varnish and antiseptic (1 pc.) – 10 thousand rubles.

As a result, 335,860 rubles will be needed for the minimum equipment of a carpentry workshop. The amount of equipment costs may vary depending on the quality of the tools and woodworking machine purchased.

To this amount are added the costs of two workbenches, at least 7,000 rubles, and the purchase of consumables: glue for carpentry, oil, sanding paper, paint brushes, glue, antiseptics and varnishes. This is about another 25,000 rubles. As a result, you will need 367,860 rubles for tools, consumables and equipment.

Organization of staff

You can initially organize a small carpentry production with four employees and the owner, who will act as a controller and manager:

• Carpenters – 2 people.
• Worker for painting and impregnation of blanks and finished products – 1 person.
• The controller who will check the quality of products and perform a managerial role is 1 person.
• Cleaning lady – 1 person.

Salary payment. Craftsmen additionally receive a percentage of completed orders. Monthly labor costs without interest charges are shown in the table:

The cleaning lady comes to work in the evening for 2-3 hours. Wet cleaning is performed once every two days. The remaining employees work from Monday to Friday inclusive, from 10:00 to 19:00. Saturday and Sunday are days off.

An employment contract is concluded with each employee. Contributions to insurance and pension funds are paid.

Monthly expenses

Monthly expenses consist of the following parts:

1. Purchase of consumables and raw materials for the carpentry shop - 425 thousand rubles.
2. Administrative expenses – 10 thousand rubles.
3. Salaries to employees and contributions to various funds - 105,545 rubles.
4. Payment of bills and rent - 40 thousand rubles.

The graph below shows the percentage of consumables per month.

Total: 580,545 thousand rubles will be needed per month to maintain a carpentry workshop. To this amount we add unforeseen expenses (for tool repairs, purchase of additional equipment) - 20 thousand rubles. As a result, expenses amount to 600,545 rubles.

We add up the monthly expenses and the costs of equipping a carpentry workshop:

367,860 + 600,545 = 968,405 thousand rubles. This amount will be needed to organize the work of the workshop, purchase raw materials and keep the business afloat for the first month.

Projected income

You can forecast your income by analyzing your competitors' sales. On average, competitors sell from 450 to 780 units per month. wooden products of various sizes. For forecasting, let's take the average figure - 580 pcs. Knowing the prices for manufactured products, we will predict revenue:

Monthly expenses are subtracted from the revenue received: 703,500 – 600,545 = 102,955 rubles, which is the net profit per month. The profitability of a carpentry workshop is 7%. Let's calculate the payback. The initial capital amounted to 838,000 rubles. We divide this amount by net monthly revenue: 838,000 / 102,955 = 7.79. On average, the payback period for a project is 8 months. But this is only subject to sufficient sales volumes. Profitability is possible already in the second month of work.

The following activities will help increase sales:

1. Purchases from 10,000 rub. considered wholesale.
2. Offer free delivery of your products to the buyer.
3. Participation in a weekend fair where goods are displayed and sold.

Marketing strategy

There is no need to organize complex marketing campaigns to promote your workshop. It is proposed to use the following methods of advertising and promoting your product:

1. Creation of a special group on social networks. Promoting it through communities of bathhouse and wooden house-building lovers.
2. Placing advertisements for sale in periodicals in your region.
3. Printing color booklets with price lists and distributing them to construction stores and companies that perform finishing of houses and baths.
4. Creation of an online store where all products will be presented not only for one region, but also for buyers from neighboring cities.
5. Offer entrepreneurs who have construction stores to list your product and pay for it after the sale.

If wooden products have an original design and differ from other analogues, then regular customers will appear very quickly.

Eventually

A business plan for a carpentry workshop with calculations will help a beginner realize his idea and start a business. It will take three months to implement the carpentry workshop plan. You will have to invest from 968 thousand rubles into your business. This amount will include equipment costs, monthly expenses, including employee salaries and the purchase of raw materials. The project pays for itself within 7-8 months, depending on the turnover.

A small carpentry workshop is a project for the central part of the region. It is difficult to start a small business in large cities, since competition with large manufacturers is very high. In the region, the workshop will quickly begin to generate income, and it is possible to expand and increase sales to other cities.

The demand for high-quality furniture and other products made of natural wood is constantly increasing, so opening a carpentry workshop is a promising business with small investments.

How to open a carpentry workshop

The Russian furniture market is overflowing with low-quality products made from chipboard and fiberboard, the main advantage of which is their low price. However, more and more buyers are paying attention to high-quality products made from natural wood - not only furniture, but also doors, windows, souvenirs, and kitchen utensils. Therefore, opening such a workshop can turn into a profitable business.

It is profitable to open a carpentry workshop even in a small town

Advantages of a carpentry workshop as a business

Business benefits include:

• growing demand for high-quality wooden products;
• the ability to produce products with individual designs that have a high price;
• small initial investments (from 100 thousand rubles);
• quick payback;
• low competition compared to other types of business with low turnover.

Woodworking company business plan

Before purchasing equipment and hiring personnel, it is necessary to draw up a business plan that will reflect market analysis, product sales prospects, planned expenses and income.

Business registration

You can register a company in any form convenient for you - for a small carpentry business, individual entrepreneurship is quite suitable. Registration of an individual entrepreneur takes only 3 days and costs 800 rubles. (state duty). You can open an LLC, but in this case you will not be able to quickly withdraw money (only once every three months and after paying tax). However, if you are starting a business with partners, an LLC is a suitable option.

When registering, you must enter the OKVED code 16.23.

A license is not required to manufacture carpentry products. Certification will be needed if you produce children's toys.

Choosing a workshop space

Almost any room is suitable for a carpentry workshop - even a garage or basement. The main thing is that the future workshop was dry, since wood is afraid of moisture. The workshop area for comfortable work should be from 50 square meters, ideally 300. For large-scale production, it is necessary to rent 700 “squares”. If you will produce large products - windows and doors, then the length and height of the room must be at least 4 meters.

Other requirements: good ventilation, natural light, low humidity, temperature not less than 16–18 degrees, electricity (220V, ideally 380), fire safety.

If you, for example, plan to produce doors, then you need to divide the workshop into separate production areas:

• drying boards;
• production of solid woodwork;
• production of individual elements;
• assembly of elements into one product;
• sanding and painting.

Market and competitor analysis

If funds allow, you can order market research from a specialized company. However, most of the information can be collected independently. If you already work in a similar industry, then you probably already know the local conditions. Otherwise, visit specialized companies and stores, see what they offer on the market and in construction supermarkets. This way you can analyze prices, understand the products offered, find out which models are popular, and ask about the origin of the wood.

Assortment compilation

The list of products offered by carpentry workshops is very wide. These are entrance and interior doors, windows, furniture, various small items for the kitchen, souvenirs, and children's toys. It is better to first choose one direction, and then you can diversify your activities.

Doors and windows are products of constant demand. Although wooden window frames are constantly being replaced by plastic, wood is still valued for doors, especially interior doors.

The manufacture of kitchen utensils benefits from mass demand and great variety. You can make wooden coasters for hot dishes, cutting boards, rolling pins, napkin holders, bread bins, containers for spices, cutlery stands, spatulas, etc. They are inexpensive, but with a large production volume the profit will be serious. And if you decorate them with decorative elements, you can sell them as souvenirs.

One of the interesting trends in this area is gingerbread rolling pins and boards with indentations and bulges in the form of patterns, fruits, and animals.

Wooden souvenirs are very diverse - from magnets to carved boxes. You can produce a “knock on wood” souvenir. This amulet is made from a birch log or board, decorated with pieces of birch bark.

As for furniture, no special explanation is required. Chairs, benches, tables, cabinets, chests of drawers and much more are made from wood.

Board and logic games made of wood are valued by parents for their environmental friendliness and durability. If you coat the products with paint, the products will cost less. Children's toys without the use of varnishes and paints usually cost more, since the surface must be perfectly smooth. Please note that to produce children's toys you need to obtain the appropriate certificate.

Finding ways to sell finished products

The easiest way to sell products is to negotiate with existing outlets in stores and on the market. Of course, getting into large retail chains is very difficult, so it’s worth trying to negotiate with small stores with a narrow focus. You can open your own kiosk or sell products directly from the workshop. A good option is to make an online store where you can post attractive photos of your products. This way you can sell products not only in your locality, but also in other cities and regions. You can advertise in free newspapers and post information on social networks. If you produce high-quality products at prices lower than those of your competitors, then word of mouth will help you.

Purchasing the necessary equipment

Equipping a carpentry workshop is the biggest expense for this business. It's good if you already have part of the tool. You can purchase used equipment (but always in good condition).

Table: necessary equipment for a carpentry shop

Some equipment can be made independently according to drawings: lathe, vice, workbenches.

A good solution would be a woodworking center that combines various equipment, which saves space. It can be bought for 100–200 thousand rubles.

Don’t forget about the carpenter’s hand tools: knives, mallets, jigsaws, chisels, calipers, tape measures.

Materials

A variety of materials are used in carpentry, the choice of which depends on what products you will produce and what level of income you are targeting. For example, the most durable furniture is made from oak, while alder is better suited for the production of elegant furniture. Expensive models are made from walnut. Ash is suitable for carving, and beech is used for bent furniture.

Furniture made from exotic species - mahogany and ebony - is very expensive; it is usually made only to order. Coniferous trees (pine, spruce) are suitable for creating interior doors.

It is also necessary to purchase consumables: wood glue, oil, sanding belts, brushes, paint and varnish products, nails, screws.

A separate expense item is accessories: various corners, wheels, closers, handles, etc.

Personnel search

To produce carpentry products, you will need at least two assistants. This is provided that you organize the work of the workshop yourself. If this is not possible, you will have to hire a production manager (technologist) or a workshop foreman. You may also need a handyman, a sales manager, a customer service specialist, or an accountant.

If you want to make unusual products, you will need a creative employee - a designer.

Keep in mind that woodworking involves risk, so it is necessary to organize training for employees. It would also help to have a job description that describes the duties and functions of employees.

Is carpentry business profitable: calculation of profitability

Let's say you open a carpentry shop producing windows and doors with two employees in a rented premises, the workload is about 40%.

Table: one-time and monthly expenses

Thus, the total costs will be about 1 million rubles.

Table: production diagram

Profitability

• revenue from wholesale sales - 752.4 thousand rubles;
• production and non-production costs - 701 thousand rubles;
• net profit - from 116.78 thousand rubles;
• profitability - from 21%.

The remaining time of employees can be spent on individual orders, which can bring in another 100–200 thousand rubles per month.

The investment will pay off in an average of 7–10 months.

If you open a small carpentry workshop, you can get by with a modest amount of 100 thousand rubles:

• equipment - 75 thousand rubles;
• raw materials - 10 thousand rubles;
• rent of space - 6–7 thousand rubles.

With a profitability of 23%, the profit will be about 30 thousand rubles. per month, and the initial costs will pay off in a period of 4 months to six months.

Wood decoration is one of the most ancient crafts known in the world. We, in Russia, attach particular importance to this craft. Many wood products are decorated and designed using this particular craft.

The development of the art of artistic woodworking in Russia was influenced by the development of the state itself and the cultural development of the people. Therefore, the history of the promotion of wood crafts is divided into several main periods.

Very few original monuments of ancient Russian art from the 9th-16th centuries have reached us. But based on ancient manuscripts, paintings, and information from guests who visited ancient Kyiv and Veliky Novgorod, they indicate that even then the artistic processing of wood occupied a definitely high position in the life of the state and the people.

Wood was used to build housing, make furniture, dishes, city fortifications, workshops, outbuildings, ships, sleighs, pavements, water pipes, machines and machines, tools and tools, children's toys and the like. All this was decorated with geometric patterns carved on them. Particularly in demand was the manufacture of spoons made of ash, maple, and birch, on the tips of which various ornaments were carved; one of the most popular was wicker.

The 15th century brought the inhabitants of Rus' liberation from the oppression of the Tatar-Mongol yoke and the foundation of a centralized state, the center of which was Moscow. Subsequently, folk arts, including artistic woodworking, gained freedom. Creative people were given free rein in their craft. It was at this time that the greatest wood craft artists of Ancient Rus' lived: Theophanes the Greek, Andrei Rublev, Dionysius, who stood out for the integrity and harmony of their works.

Masterpieces of decorative and applied art of the 15th century became objects of imitation for a generation of many masters. An example is the iconostasis; if you pay attention, they have wicker patterns and gilding, which was inherent in the iconostasis of artists of the 15th century.
A special place worth noting is wooden interiors and wood products. Being in a room with a wooden interior feels like you are one step closer to harmony with nature. Your soul becomes calm and you feel more energetic. Wood not only brings you closer to nature, but also adds sophistication and sophistication to your home, especially the various hewn geometric patterns, in the details of which craftsmen leave a piece of their soul.

Implementation of a mini carpentry business.

First, you need to study the markets, visit exhibitions, wood industry fairs, in order to know what type of products are in demand by buyers. After collecting information, create a business plan for your carpentry workshop that can lead you to success.

To create a workshop you need: a dry, bright room measuring 50 square meters with ceilings up to 4 meters high. Electricity is also required. Then start collecting documents necessary for tax and fire safety services.

Necessary equipment.

The next step is to collect the necessary materials and purchase machines for production. According to your wishes, you can either buy all the necessary equipment in full, or 50/50. Make half yourself using online drawings, and buy the other half. There is no point in saving on materials and equipment, because half the quality of your products depends on this. In short, you will need tools such as a circular or miter saw, a jointer, a planer, power tools: a drill, a milling cutter, as well as sets of hand tools: chisels, mallets, hacksaws.

Before purchasing equipment, you should consider everything carefully. What exactly will you produce, what tools and machines are needed for this, in order to avoid unnecessary expenses on unnecessary equipment. It is also important not to forget about the people who will work with you, or for you. It is best to look not only for masters of their craft, but also for creative people who will put their soul into your products. If your product is original, the demand for it will never fall and it will bring a stable income.

What kind of wood products should be made?

Do not apply varnish to such a talisman; they decorate it with pieces of birch bark. The specialty of the manufacturer of such amulets is the so-called knocking on wood instruction. People believe in all sorts of superstitions, so by printing instructions for communicating with spirits on your amulet, you will attract the attention of buyers. This product costs about 300 rubles.

By using the cheapest slab material, you can make benches, tables, stools for cottages, and decorate them with various geometric patterns. At the moment, such things are in demand and are quite well valued in Moscow.

The most ordinary bench made of slab costs about 2,500 rubles, and adding some kind of ornament to it can be customized for 3,500 rubles. During the summer, you will be able to produce and sell 25 pieces per month. Coasters for hot food cost 25-40 rubles, and those made from polished sections cost up to 100 rubles, napkin holders from 150 rubles, but good original bread bins can cost up to 1000 rubles.

Expenses and income for a mini business.

Business plan expenses will include the following items:
. -rent the premises up to $200 if you don’t have your own;
. -room lighting up to $10-20;
. -materials up to 300 dollars. USA.
. -tools – $2500

To open a small mini carpentry workshop you will need about $3170. With a business efficiency of 23%, net profit will be from $1000 per month, and the payback period will be up to 4 months. You should get your carpentry business up and running by the beginning of the construction season.

Approximate income plan for a mini carpentry business.

Organization of a medium-scale wooden products manufacturing business.

The production system of window and door blocks can be divided into the following stages:
1. cutting lumber, checking its quality;
2. creation and processing of blanks;
3. assembly of the structure;
4. sanding the product and applying coatings.

For each above-mentioned stage, you can buy a separate machine or choose a woodworking center that can perform all the above-mentioned points. You can also kill two birds with one stone, that is, purchase a multifunctional unit that can combine several functions and work for 2-3 workshops at the same time.

When purchasing such installations, you also save space in your premises, because one installation takes up less space than two or three, but includes the same functions. An example of such an installation is the D 300 machine, which can perform the functions of several types, such as: thicknesser, milling, grinding, planing shops.

Additional tools.

For high-quality and consistent work of your carpentry shop, you need to buy the following tools:

Minimum plumbing tool kit;
. drill;
. screwdriver;
. jigsaw;
. Sander;
. moisture meter;
. roulette;
. calipers;
. electric plane;
. corded circular saws;
. tool for applying coloring and antiseptic substances;
. fan with bags for organizing sawdust removal.

A small carpentry workshop can be set up on an area of ​​60 m2. Space savings can be achieved by combining all equipment in a woodworking center. To achieve success in business, it is necessary to hire at least two professional carpenters, and also in the first stages of publishing, the director must be personally present at the manufacturing processes of the products.

Feasibility study.

The designed product is depicted in three views from above, front and side. If necessary, make a section of the part. If the part model is very complex, then it is divided into parts and each part is depicted separately. Each part receives its own number, under which it is included in its specification. All drawings are made on paper, in pencil, so that if necessary, it is easy to correct a mistake, or introduce some kind of amendment or modification.

Most use special paper - graph paper. This is paper that is divided into cells to make it easier to calculate the scale and draw to scale.

Together with the sketch, they think through the manufacturing system for this product. Exactly what materials will be needed, what machines will be needed for this development, what tools will be used in the process of creating this product, the costs are calculated. They calculate everything down to the last nail in order to avoid shortages of some materials in the future, and naturally so that production is organized.

Also during this period, the craftsmen are preparing the place of work. Choose a workshop that is more convenient in size and will correspond to the size of the product. They choose a convenient location for the drawings and the placement of materials in the workshop from which future products will be made. Provide the master with free access to the machine, as well as tools. Provide him with comfortable working conditions. Then the manufacturing system and design of the future product are checked again in order to avoid damage to quality and various failures during the manufacturing process.
