Executive Summary

Business Overview

Elec Eco Repair will be an installation, renovation, and electrical repair company located at 25 Rue des Roquemonts, in the city of Caen. The business will be situated close to major roads, to facilitate easy travel.

We will specialise in energy-efficient renovations by offering regulated electrical radiators, thermodynamic water heaters, and much more. This will likely bring long-term benefits to homes within Caen.

Our industry accreditation means that we can guarantee our customers a high-quality service. This accreditation gives us credibility because it ensures that our installation complies with regulatory standards. Our customers will also benefit from subsidies provided by the government.

We will set up a limited company with a total share capital of €8,000. The business will be managed by Victor D. and Marie A.

Our managers both have complementary experience. Victor worked as an electrician for a large company for nearly 10 years. Marie worked at an electrical installation company, providing energy-efficient renovations for 8 years.

In Europe, 97% of companies during the same year had fewer than 20 employees and they accounted for 80% of all construction turnover in the Europe.

Local Market

Figures for Normandy

According to The Regional Economic Unit for Construction, Normandy's construction sector was worth €10 billion in 2018 - a 4% growth in comparison to 2017 figures. The sector accounted for 6% of Normandy's total economy at the time.

There were 28,644 construction businesses in the region:

  • 30% were companies employing between 1 and 9 employees 
  • 64% were self-employed establishments
  • 6% were companies employing more than 10 employees

The CAPEB report also indicates that companies employing fewer than 10 employees generated turnover worth €4.3 million in 2017, i.e. 43% of the regional turnover. There were 2,239 new construction companies created in 2017.

The counties of Seine-Maritime and Calvados accounted for the majority of turnover in the region in 2017.

Financial Highlights

We expect to be profitable in our first year of activity with sales of €157,200 and an EBITDA of €6,112 (with a 3.89% margin) for year 1.

We expect to be able to continue to grow our business to reach €198,080 in sales and €15,952 in EBITDA (with a 8.05% margin) by year 3.

Operating cash flow generation is expected to be positive for the entire duration of the plan, and the company should be adequately capitalised to enable us to meet our loan repayments while retaining sufficient liquidity to deal with any unforeseen circumstances.

Our Ask

We estimate that we need a total of €28,000 to open our electrician.

Our partner will contribute €18,000 (64.2% of the total amount).

Electrician Shop Business Plan Template FAQ


What is a electrician business plan and do I need one?
Show answer

A electrician business plan is a written document that sets out the commercial, operational and financial objectives of the company over the next 3 to 5 years.

It consists of two main parts:

  • A written part that presents, in detail, your electrician business, the team, your strategy, and your medium-term objectives.
  • A financial forecast that highlights the expected profitability of the electrician and the initial funding requirements.

The lack of business planning is one of the main reasons why more than 50% of startups fail within 5 years. If you're starting a electrician, writing a business plan is a must-have in order to reduce the risk of failure of your project.

Business plans are also required by most lenders and investors in order to secure financing, therefore a business plan is also highly recommended if you're seeking a loan or equity investment for your electrician.

How do I write a business plan for a electricial business and is it difficult?
Show answer

Writing a electrician business plan without The Business Plan Shop can be both error-prone and time-consuming - whether you're new to entrepreneurship or experienced:

  • You'll need to research the structure of a business plan, what to include in each section, and what key elements investors and lenders expect to see
  • You may encounter writer's block (especially if it's the first time you're writing a business plan for your electrical company)
  • You'll need to create a financial forecast on a spreadsheet which requires a solid understanding of accounting and financial modelling in order to be done without error
  • You'll need to spend hours formatting financial data on Excel or Sheets before it's ready to integrate into your business plan
  • Any updates to your electrician business plan or financial forecast will need to be done manually

Luckily for you, The Business Plan Shop's online platform and electrician business plan template guide you through every stage of writing a business plan, so that you can spend more time managing and growing your business instead.

Our editor follows a best-in-class structure for professional business plans. Each section and subsection includes examples and instructions to help you, while our business plan templates provide further inspiration if you're stuck.

Our financial forecasting software helps you create a forecast and integrate it into your business plan with ease. Anytime you update your data, your business plan automatically updates.

And with our forecasting software all the calculations are done for you, without errors.

What is the budget for a electricial business and how much does it cost to get started?
Show answer

The budget to start and run an electricial business will depend on the exact concept and location.

A small local electrician using their own assets (property or vehicle) rather than renting out premises will help reduce costs considerably.

A large electrical business operating in the heart of London would require much greater startup costs than one operating in Newcastle due to higher overhead costs (advertising, insurance, rent).

As an example, in our electrician business plan template the total initial funding requirement amounted to €28,000, with the founders contributing €18,000.

In order to assess the exact budget for your electrician idea, you need to do a financial forecast using a financial projection tool such as the one we offer.
