I.
Situation Analysis
A. Market Size and Growth
The market size of our target market has grown rapidly for the past few
years. More than two thirds of working – age women with dependent
children (68 per cent) were in employment in the second quarter of 2008.
But women without children were more likely to be in employment, at 73
per cent over the same period. At present over millions of mothers are
taking part of the family’s daily living, which causes them to spend less
time with the family, and if ever given the time, mothers still need to
accomplish household chores and other related activities.
B. Competitors
In the Philippine setting going to the market is not just a routine;
moreover it has been a culture that a member of the family should visit the
market in a daily basis. Because of this, delivery business of wet and dry
goods from the market has not existed. At present, here in the Philippines,
there are no existing competitors running exactly the same business. On
the other hand, there are several competitors on the same nature of
business in other countries.
C. Environment
Technology
The technological environment of Tele – Market contributes a big role in
the business. Vehicles, high-end food storage, and appliances that
maintain the cleanliness and sanitation in the establishment, these are just
some of the technologies needed to run the business.
1
Economic
Basically, the national economic status greatly affects the condition of the
business. At present, the economic status of the Philippines is not in a
good condition, which may make it more challenging for the business to
proper.
Social
The social environment of tele –market may contribute a big role in the
business’ success. Most Filipinos do have a healthy social life, this may be
a great opportunity for the business to tap other market segments.
Through social connections, informations about the business may spread
at a fast rate.
D. Strengths and Weaknesses
Strengths
At present, the female working force is rapidly increasing in number.
It has been a trend that both father and mother is out for work. Mothers of
millions of families contribute a big percentage in the female working
force. Because of this, mothers have to spend less time at home to cope
with the busy schedule of their work. This is where Tele – Market gets its
strength. Tele – Market, is in to answering a trend that might help millions
of families.
Weaknesses
Not all customers prefer other people to buy food for them. Another thing
2
is that not all people can afford the range of prices that our business offers.
II. Retail Concept
A. Name
“Tele – Market Delivery,” is the business name of which this retail plan
was made for. “Tele” is a common word used when telephone is used as
the means of communication. We named the business tele-market
delivery because of the nature of the business to deliver wet and dry
goods like what is sold in the market. Transactions or orders will be done
through the means of a telephone.
B. Brief Description
Tele – Market Delivery is a business that sells wet and dry products like
what is being sold in a traditional market. Moreover, customers of the
business can shop at ease; all they have to do is call the establishment for
their order and it will be delivered at their doorstep. The business answers
the need of spending time to market while not going there at all. This
saves the time of customers in buying daily needs while giving them an
added value and convenience through the delivery service.
C. Mission / Vision
Mission
Tele – Market Delivery aims to give its customer a brand new
lifestyle in managing their time to go to the market. It aims to give
3
convenience to its customers while giving them satisfaction through the
fresh products of the business. Through excellent customer relationship
management, Tele – Market Delivery will build a strong foundation
between its customers and the business to cope with fast paced
modernization
Vision
Tele – Market Delivery will be a world class business in attending to
the basic needs of its customers. Through quality goods and excellent
delivery service, Tele –Market delivery will lead in the field of its business.
III. Retail Strategy
A. Target Market
The growing number of busy and working moms are the target market of
this business.
B. Format
Merchandise or service:
It is a combination of food retailing and service. We are selling wet
products such as chicken, pork, beef any kind of meat as well as
vegetables and any ingredients that our customer needs. As our
customers call and order, we deliver our products to their doorsteps, fresh.
They can also send their orders via online, where there is also a part of
our page for recipe video that they can watch if they want a new dish since
online buying is the new trend for the retailers nowadays.
Pricing:
Our pricing is per kilo just like in the wet market, supermarket and
4
other establishment selling the same nature of product. If our customers
reached their cost up to php 400.00 worth of products the delivery cost
would be free, but if not they will just have to add an additional of php
15.00 for the delivery cost. We based our delivery cost on how much will
our customers commonly pay for their fare, with consideration to the
fluctuating price of oil. The expenses of out customers may appear higher
compared when they go to a traditional market, the reason behind this is
the added value and convenience of our business.
Location:
Our store location would be near subdivisions or villages where
most of the people residing in the area may have a need of being at ease
in terms of their daily routine in going to the market.
C. Basis for Sustainable Competitive Advantage
• Our advantage over other retailers is the fact that our
customer does not have to go out of their place and go to the market
where they have to roam around just to find the ingredients that they
would need. They just have to call and wait.
• Another sustainable competitive advantage of the business
is the quality of the service delivery. Deliveries are sure to come on
time (not more than 15 minutes after the time of order). Buying wet
and dry goods has never been this easy, and to maintain this
advantage over competitors, rules in the delivery service shall be
implemented such as considering the order free of charge if it gets to
the customer late.
