AFAI 2-Year Forecast (Conservative Estimate)

1. Number of AFAI Stores Opened

• Germany: 30 stores

• Europe (outside Germany): 20 stores

• Total EU: 50 stores

Assumption: Focus on selected pilot cities with slow, strategic expansion.

​

2. Number of Customers Served

• Germany: 30,000 customers

• Europe (outside Germany): 20,000 customers

• Total EU: 50,000 customers

Average: Only 500 customers per store per year — significantly below potential, focusing on quality service and early process optimization.

​​

​

3. Total Amount of Identified Grants

• Average grant identified per customer: €3,000

• Total grants identified:

  • 50,000 customers × €3,000 = €150,000,000

​​

​

4. Total Amount of Grants Paid Out

• Assumption: 60% success rate (more conservative than the optimistic model)

• Grants successfully paid out:

  • €150,000,000 × 60% = €90,000,000

​

5. Other Conservative Impacts

• Paper savings:

  • Germany: approx. 2 million sheets/year

  • Europe: approx. 1 million sheets/year

• CO₂ reduction: Equivalent to several hundred tons of CO₂ saved over two years.

• Bureaucracy cost reduction:

  • Estimated savings: €5–10 million for participating authorities and institutions.

​

​

Conclusion (Conservative):

Even with a very cautious approach, within 2 years AFAI will have enabled approximately €90 million in grant payouts, opened 50 locations, and directly supported 50,000 customers — while starting to deliver measurable environmental and administrative efficiency impacts across Europe.
