Executive Summary

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is built for repeat, high-trust rehabilitation demand in central Harare

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is a Zimbabwe-registered private limited company delivering evidence-based physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and preventive wellness services to adults and children in central Harare. We treat musculoskeletal pain, post-surgical recovery, stroke rehabilitation, sports injuries, and lifestyle-related mobility problems through one-on-one care, monitored progress, and wellness programmes that keep clients active and functioning.

Our business model combines individual sessions, group classes, and corporate wellness contracts so we are not dependent on a single customer type. That mix gives us a resilient revenue base, strong gross margins, and a clear path to scale from one site into a broader Harare wellness platform.

The market opportunity is large enough to support disciplined growth

We are targeting working professionals, older adults, athletes, and post-operative patients who want timely care, not long waits or fragmented rehab. Based on Harare’s population profile, employer concentration, and private healthcare demand, we estimate a realistic addressable market of 25,000 to 30,000 private physiotherapy and wellness users in our catchment.

Our financial model confirms the commercial depth of that market. We are forecasting USD 126,000 in Year 1 revenue, rising to USD 220,506 in Year 3 and USD 300,151 in Year 5, with a stable 71.4% gross margin throughout the forecast period.

:::reassure Why the opportunity is investable

• Demand is recurring, not one-off
• The service mix supports repeat visits and referrals
• Corporate wellness creates contract-based income
• Central Harare access strengthens conversion and retention
  :::

Our funding requirement is USD 28,000

We are seeking USD 28,000 in total launch funding, made up of USD 10,000 equity from the founder and USD 18,000 debt at 12.5% over 5 years. This capital gives us enough room to launch cleanly, equip the clinic, and carry working capital while patient volumes build.

The business is intentionally lean. Our first-year break-even revenue is USD 79,308, and we expect to reach break-even timing in Month 1 within Year 1 because the fixed cost base is low relative to the gross margin profile.

Headline financials show strong early resilience

• Year 1 revenue: USD 126,000
• Year 3 revenue: USD 220,506
• Year 5 revenue: USD 300,151
• Gross margin: 71.4%
• Year 1 EBITDA: USD 38,402
• Year 1 net profit: USD 25,347
• Year 1 closing cash: USD 32,247
• Debt service coverage ratio in Year 1: 6.56

These figures show a business that is cash-generative from launch and capable of servicing debt comfortably. By Year 5, net income rises to USD 106,359, EBITDA reaches USD 144,196, and closing cash grows to USD 338,190, which gives the company room to expand, reinvest, or support a second Harare location.

:::warning Funding logic we are protecting
We will keep the raise focused on core launch priorities only:

• physiotherapy equipment and treatment beds
• reception and clinic fit-out
• IT and practice software
• branding and launch marketing
• minor renovations and compliance costs
• working capital for the first 6 months
  :::

Our operating model is designed around clinical quality and conversion

The centre is being established in a ground-floor medical and office complex in central Harare so clients can access care easily by transport, car, or on foot. I lead the clinical delivery as founder and lead physiotherapist, supported by Alex Chen, our part-time business and finance advisor, and Avery Singh, our clinic coordinator and receptionist.

This structure keeps the clinic professionally run from day one. It also supports a patient journey built around assessment, treatment, progress tracking, home-exercise guidance, and follow-up booking before discharge.

The business is positioned to win on continuity, not volume

Our differentiation is the full continuum of care: assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, prevention, and maintenance wellness. Many competitors in Harare stop at symptom relief, while we stay with the client until function improves and long-term recovery is underway.

That positioning matters in a market where our customers value:

• one-on-one attention
• evening and Saturday access
• clear pricing
• measurable progress
• digital booking and follow-up
• referral support from trusted clinicians

We are also using corporate wellness as a growth lever. Employers in Harare are looking for ergonomics support, staff screening, and practical wellness interventions that reduce absenteeism and injury risk.

Growth is already built into the five-year model

Our revenue forecast climbs from USD 126,000 in Year 1 to USD 189,000 in Year 2, USD 220,506 in Year 3, USD 257,265 in Year 4, and USD 300,151 in Year 5. That trajectory is supported by rising patient sessions, stronger class attendance, and more corporate contracts, not speculative price increases.

We expect Year 2 to be the point where the clinic moves from a founder-led model into a broader growth platform with additional clinical capacity. By Year 5, the business is projected to serve over 900 sessions per month across two branches, while maintaining healthy profitability and strong clinical outcomes.

:::tip What makes the model strong
The business combines:

• repeat clinical demand
• high-margin group services
• corporate contract revenue
• low capex relative to revenue potential
• a central Harare location with easy access
  :::

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is therefore a focused healthcare business with a clearly defined market, an experienced clinical founder, a lean operating structure, and a credible five-year growth path. We are seeking partner capital to launch a profitable, scalable private physiotherapy and wellness centre in Harare that delivers real patient outcomes and strong investor returns.

Company Description

Our Business Identity and Legal Structure

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is a Zimbabwe-registered private limited company built to deliver evidence-based physiotherapy, rehabilitation, and preventive wellness services in central Harare. We serve adults and children who need consistent, one-on-one care for musculoskeletal pain, injury recovery, post-surgical rehabilitation, stroke recovery, and chronic lifestyle-related conditions.

The business is structured to be clinically credible, commercially disciplined, and easy for patients, insurers, and referral partners to access. Our location on a ground-floor medical and office complex in central Harare places us close to major employers, transport routes, and other healthcare providers, which supports walk-in access, referral traffic, and corporate wellness delivery.

The Problem We Solve in Harare

We were established to address a clear service gap in private rehabilitation care. Too many patients in Harare are forced to navigate long waiting periods, rushed consultations, and fragmented follow-up after pain or injury first appears.

Our model solves that problem by combining assessment, treatment, rehabilitation, and preventive wellness under one roof. That means a working professional with back pain, an older adult recovering mobility after a stroke, or an athlete managing a sports injury can move through a structured care pathway instead of receiving isolated treatment sessions with no measurable follow-up.

We focus on the most common and commercially relevant demand areas in our market:

• Back, neck, knee, and shoulder pain
• Post-surgical orthopaedic rehabilitation
• Stroke rehabilitation and mobility restoration
• Sports injury management
• Chronic lifestyle conditions aggravated by sedentary work and low activity levels

This positioning matters because our primary customer base is not looking for generic wellness advice. They want clinically sound treatment, monitored progress, and practical recovery plans that fit work schedules and family obligations.

Founding Date and Ownership Position

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is in the process of registration with the Registrar of Companies in Zimbabwe, and the business is being launched as a new entrant with a focused medical-service mandate. The company is being founded by me as the lead physiotherapist and operating owner, with ownership planned at 80% for the founder and 20% reserved for a future physiotherapist partner.

That equity structure keeps control aligned with clinical leadership while leaving room for a partner who strengthens service capacity, referrals, and future expansion. It also reflects the long-term intent of building a scalable healthcare asset, not a short-term single-practitioner room.

Ownership and governance

Stakeholder	Role	Equity Position

Future physiotherapist partner	Clinical partner and growth support	20%

Mission Statement

Our mission is to restore movement, reduce pain, and improve quality of life for people in Harare through personalised physiotherapy and wellness care that is clinically effective, accessible, and continuity-based.

That mission guides every part of the business, from consultation design and exercise prescription to patient follow-up and corporate wellness delivery. We are building a centre where treatment is not only reactive, but preventive and measurable.

What We Do and Who We Serve

We provide evidence-based physiotherapy and wellness services to three core customer groups.

• Working professionals aged 30 to 65 who sit for long hours and experience neck, back, shoulder, or knee pain
• Older adults who need mobility support, arthritis management, balance work, or post-stroke rehabilitation
• Athletes and active individuals from schools, clubs, and recreational sport who require injury assessment, rehabilitation, and return-to-play support

We also serve corporate clients through on-site ergonomics, screening, and employee wellness programmes. This creates an additional revenue stream while positioning the centre as a practical partner to employers that want fewer sick days, better posture habits, and improved employee wellbeing.

Our delivery model is built around personalised care rather than volume-based throughput. Every patient receives an assessment-driven plan, monitored progress reviews, and home exercise guidance that supports recovery between visits.

:::reassure Why our model is investor-ready
Our service mix is balanced across individual sessions, group wellness classes, and corporate contracts. That spread gives the business multiple entry points into the market and reduces reliance on any single source of demand.

Clinical Leadership and Professional Credibility

I am the founder and lead physiotherapist, with a Bachelor’s degree in Physiotherapy and over seven years of experience in private practice and hospital-based rehabilitation in Zimbabwe. My background includes complex case management, group rehabilitation programming, and working relationships with orthopaedic surgeons and general practitioners.

That experience is important because our client base includes people with recurring pain and post-injury concerns who need more than temporary relief. It also gives the business immediate credibility with referral partners who expect professional standards, safe treatment protocols, and consistent patient communication.

Our support team strengthens that capability.

• Alex Chen, our part-time business and finance advisor, is a qualified accountant with 10 years of small business finance experience.
• Avery Singh, our clinic coordinator and receptionist, brings five years of experience in medical reception and patient administration.
• Taylor Nguyen is planned for Year 2 as an additional full-time physiotherapist with sports and orthopaedic experience.

This combination gives us both clinical depth and operational structure. It allows the founder to focus on care delivery, quality control, and referral relationships while the administration and financial functions remain professionally managed.

Location Strategy and Access Model

Our central Harare location is chosen for convenience, visibility, and accessibility. Being on a ground-floor medical and office complex makes it easier for patients with mobility limitations, post-operative restrictions, or pain-related movement challenges to attend appointments safely and comfortably.

The location also supports a mixed customer profile. Private patients can access us directly, while corporate clients, nearby professionals, and insured patients can reach the centre without major travel time or transport complexity. For healthcare services, convenience affects attendance, adherence, and repeat booking, so the site is part of the service design, not just a physical address.

Growth Intent and Long-Term Positioning

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is designed to grow from a specialist rehabilitation clinic into a broader wellness platform. Our first phase is focused on building a strong base in musculoskeletal care, stroke rehab, sports injury recovery, and preventive wellness.

Over time, we intend to expand into women’s health, sports performance, and more advanced rehabilitation programmes. That direction supports our long-term goal of serving more patients across Harare while maintaining the personalised clinical model that differentiates us from larger, less responsive providers.

:::warning Investment-grade operating priorities
We are prioritising:

• Strong referral relationships with doctors, surgeons, gyms, and employers
• A booking and follow-up process that supports continuity of care
• Consistent patient experience from first assessment through recovery
• A reputation for measurable outcomes, not just attendance
  :::

Harare Wellness & Physiotherapy Centre (Pvt) Ltd is therefore a focused healthcare business with a defined market, a clear clinical need, and a scalable service structure. We are building a centre that serves patients with real rehabilitation needs and gives investors a professionally led, location-advantaged, and growth-oriented platform in Zimbabwe’s private wellness and physiotherapy market.
