1. Company Name                         "Obolon"

 

        Obolon Joint Stock Company (Ukrainian: ПАТ "Оболонь") is a major Ukrainian producer of a wide range of beverages: beer, low alcohol drinks (cocktails), soda drinks and locally extracted natural mineral water, as well as a major malt producer. Based in Kiev, Obolon JSC has sites across Ukraine and employs several thousand people. "Obolon" is a trade mark of the company. The word ‘Obolon’ comes from the times of Kievan Rus, when it denoted low riverside meadows.

Obolon is a unique Ukrainian brand and the leader of the Ukrainian food products market. In the global market, Obolon is an ambassador of the Ukrainian brewing culture, holding stable positions for the last two decades.

Obolon is the only company headquartered in the CIS which features in the 40 largest brewing company groups of the world. The company's share in global beer output is 0.5%. In addition to being the 28th beer corporation in the world, it also ranks 34th globally in the production of malt, one of the main ingredients of beer.

 

 

2.     Company History

 

The corporation’s history dates back to 1974 when the construction site of the future brewery was sand filled. The start-up of production was dedicated to the 1980 Olympic Games.

Czech experts were engaged in the project as world-renowned brewmasters. They were the ones who identified the construction site for the new brewery. The choice of construction site was determined by the main factor, namely the availability of huge reserves of soft, crystal-clear water. Today, the water from Jurassic bedrock (290 m) ensures the high quality of its products.

Soon afterwards, the enterprise gave the impetus to developing the largest corporation in Ukraine to produce beer, low alcohol and soft drinks, and mineral water.

The plant received its current name only in 1986, after the district of Kyiv with the same name.

 

Milestones of the corporation’s history:

1980       Opening of Kyiv Brewery №3 dedicated to the XXII Olympic Games takes place, and the first batch of beer is brewed. A soft drink plant is put into operation at the enterprise.

1986       Obolon Brewing and Soft Drink Association was established on the basis of Kyiv Brewery № 3, and included Kyiv Brewery №1, Kyiv Brewery№ 2 and Fastiv Brewery.

1989       The staff elects Oleksandr Slobodyan out of five candidates nominated for the position of Chief Executive Officer of the Obolon Brewing and Soft Drink Association.

The enterprise started its export activities, and for the first time ever, Zhiguli Beer reaches customers in United Kingdom and is highly rated by them.

1990       On the initiative of CEO Oleksandr Slobodyan, the staff take a capital lease on the enterprise.

1992       Obolon receives privatization certificate №1 from the State Property Fund of Ukraine and made history as the first private enterprise of independent Ukraine.

1993       The privatized enterprise receives the legal status of a closed corporation.

1994       With the release of the legendary low-alcohol drink Gin Tonic, the company founded the low-alcohol beverage market not only in Ukraine, but also in Eastern Europe.

1998       Obolon CJSC is the industry’s first enterprise to receive an international certificate for ISO-9001 Quality Management System version 1994, which confirms the high level of all processes and capability of a Ukrainian enterprise to make world-class products.

1999       Zhyvchyk soft drink enters the market and promptly wins wide public recognition. It is made from natural raw materials only. Later, other manufacturers followed this example and started production of juice-containing beverages.

2001       Obolon CJSC affirms high organization of the corporate quality management system and obtains a certificate of the ISO-9001 standard version 2000.

2003       The Obolon brand is recognized as a ‘Golden Trademark’.

2004       The Company launches Europe’s largest bottling line with maximum capacity of 110 000 bottles per hour. Configuration and assembly work is performed by the well-known German company KHS. With the launch of the new bottling line, the Obolon plant is ranked among three largest brewing plants of Europe.

A new brewing system is put into operation. The equipment was supplied and installed by Ziemann Group. The Company invested as much as $18 million in this large-scale project. The new brewing system is equipped with three mash-mixing vessels, wort boiler, whirlpool and the largest lauter tank in Ukraine, with a diameter reaching 11.5 m

2005       Oleksandr Slobodyan, President of Obolon CJSC, heads the ‘TOP-100. Best top managers of Ukraine' rating compiled by the authoritative business publication Investgazeta.

Obolon CJSC wins the All-Ukrainian contest for 'Best Employer of the Year’ within the group of enterprises employing 1001 to 5000 people.

2007       Obolon is recognized as one of the best taxpayers of Kyiv.

2008       Obolon CJSC was the first enterprise in the food industry to certify four management systems at once. During the audit performed by representatives of the German firm DEKRA-ITS, Obolon re-affirmed its compliance with the requirements of DSTU ISO 9001:2001 (Quality Management System), DSTU ISO 22 000:2007 (Food Safety Management Systems), DSTU ISO 14 001:2006 (Environmental Management Systems), and DSTU-П OHSAS 18 001:2006 (Occupational Health and Safety Systems).

2011       In the beginning of the year the Obolon company, based on the ‘The most valued employers of Ukraine 2010’ research organized by Reputation Capital and HeadHunter, came fifth among Ukrainian companies with the best reputation as an employer.

Obolon changes the type of ownership, having become a joint-stock company.

The corporation takes fifth place in the rating of socially responsible companies of Ukraine, published in specialist magazine Gvardia in April 2011.

2012       Based on results of the first half of 2012, Obolon has become the largest soft drinks producer in Ukraine.

Despite a drop in beer output, Obolon managed to improve its financial results. The company's profits grew by over 30%.

Despite an 11.5% decrease in the product output down to 87.3 dal in the previous year, the corporation managed to increase its profits by 32% up to 118.5 million UA H.

The single largest negative factor for the beer market during the previous year was the increase in raw material prices. Malt production decreased by 8.9%, or 37 thousand tons, which caused the raw material price to increase by over one quarter. However, Obolon was able to mitigate the consequences of this fact due to its own malt production.

A large share of the company's profits is represented by the production of soft drinks and mineral waters. In 2011, Obolon was the second largest manufacturer of soft drinks, with an output of about 22 million dal. Although the market for this type of products is shrinking, with an almost 3% decrease down to 142 million dal in 2011, it is growing in terms of money, with a 15% increase in prices.

In addition, Obolon Corporation paid over 1032 million UA H in taxes, excise tax, and charges in 2011, which is 4% more than in 2010. Diligent and transparent payment of taxes has always been a key principle in Obolon's financial activities.

 

 

9.     Main Competitors

 

The average annual per capita consumption of beer is about 70 litres in Europe, with some highly developed countries reaching 100-150 litres. Based on vast research, consumer income level significantly affects the popularity of this drink.

This is why average beer consumption in Ukraine is about 63 litres a year per capita. Nevertheless, the beer market is characterized by a high level of competition.

Obolon Corporation remains the only large player in the beer market with 100% Ukrainian capital and headquarters in Kyiv. The Obolon brand is the second in terms of sales in Ukraine, holding “Obolon” company has 3 main competitors which want to be on the first place of sales, turnover and have majority customers.

 

Main competitors on beer market are:

• Anheuser-Busch InBev (local beer brands: Chernihivske, Rohan, Yantar)

10.   Fairs and Exhibitions

Being a participant of international shows and fairs is both prestigious and useful. It provides one with an opportunity to demonstrate own produce, compare it with the others, see the achievements of other producers, learn the latest tendencies, and acquire new business contacts. The Obolon Joint Stock Company has participated in a lot of various events and presented its products at both home and foreign brewery shows and fairs. Wherever displayed, the Obolon products were highly appraised by experts. The won prizes, award and medals are the eloquent evidence of the top quality of Obolon beer.

Contract and its Features

 

Essential Clauses of Contract

 

By law contracts are made by Ukrainian foreign trade organisations in writing. When striking a deal standard contracts are widely used. Standard contracts are not a must. Some articles may be altered and supplemented.

Here are some of the items which are part and parcel of any contract: legal title of the contracting parties, subject of the contract, quality, price, delivery and payment terms.

 

Subject

This section names the product for sale or purchase. It also indicates the unit of measure generally employed in foreign trade for specific commodities. Contracts for bulk cargo contain a stipulation 'about' or 'plus or minus... per cent', denoting the permitted quantity tolerance.

 

Quality

The quality of machines and equipment is to be in conformity with the technical specification of the contract.

The quality of raw materials and foodstuffs is determined, as a rule,

by standards

by sample

by description.

 

Price

The price stated in a contract may be firm, fixed or sliding.

Firm price. Firm prices are not subject to change in the course of the fulfilment of the contract.

Fixed price. It is the price governing in the market on the day of delivery or for a given period.

Sliding prices. These prices are quoted for machinery and equipment which require a long period of delivery.

Payment

A cheque is a written order to a Bank given and signed by someone who has money deposited there to pay a certain amount mentioned in the cheque to a person named on it.

In the place of the cheque system Banks provide an international system of Bank Transfers. The Seller gives TT or mail remittance terms to a Buyer when he is a trusted customer or agent. It involves risk as the Seller ships goods without any assurance of getting payment.

Like a cheque, a draft is an order to pay. It is made out by an exporter and presented to the importer. It is also called a bill of exchange. A sight draft is a bill which is paid immediately on presentation. A bill to be paid at a later date is called a term draft. There are 30-day, 60-, 90- and 120-day drafts.

A very useful method is to attach the shipping documents (the Bill of Lading, the Insurance Policy and the Invoice) to the Draft and hand them to the Bank for collection. The documents can be handed over to the Buyer either against payment (D.P. – Documents against Payment) or against acceptance of the Draft (D.A. – Documents against Acceptance). D.P. refers to sight drafts. D.A. refers to term drafts.

A sight draft does not require acceptance. A term draft must be necessarily accepted. The drawee writes "Accepted" across it and signs his name.

The draft is then returned to the Seller, who can hold it until maturity.

This method of payment involves risk to the exporter or his bank as it may happen that a draft is not honoured when it is due.

The shipper has full protection when drafts are presented against L/C. With a letter of credit, at least when it is confirmed and irrevocable, the payment is guaranteed.

The Bank at the Sellers' end guarantees payment in case the opener of the credit defaults. Besides, the credit cannot be cancelled before the expiry date.

A revolving letter of credit is a special type, the value of which is constantly made up to a given limit after each shipment, thus saving charges on multiple letters of credit.

Transport and Delivery Terms

Multimodal (Door to Door) transport is wide-spread in shipping now. It involves a transfer of the goods from one mode of transport to another.

Traditionally, the ship's rail was considered the critical point of responsibility, that is when all risks of loss or damage are transferred from one party to the other. Now it is no longer the ship's rail but the port terminal which may be such a point. In sea port areas the goods are put into containers, on pallets or aboard the ship.

The main carrier often prefers to assume through responsibility for the cargo he carries. In a through movement of the goods a combined transport document is issued instead of a traditional Bill of Lading.

Like a traditional Bill of Lading it is a receipt for the consignment.

But instead of ports of shipment and discharge it shows the place of delivery and receipt. The new system of multimodal shipment in international trade is reflected in the International Commercial Terms (Incoterms 1980).

 

 

The Fourteen Incoterms

EX Works

"Ex Works" means that the seller's only responsibility is to make the goods available at his premises (i. e. works or factory). In particular he is not responsible for loading the goods in the vehicle provided by the buyer, unless otherwise agreed. The buyer bears the full cost and risk involved in bringing the goods from there to the desired destination. This term thus represents the minimum obligation for the seller.

 

Free Carrier

...(named point)

This term has been designed to meet the requirements of modern transport, particularly such "multimodal" transport as container or "roll on-roll off" traffic by trailers and ferries. It is based on the same main principle as FOB except that the seller fulfils his obligations when he delivers the goods into the custody of the carrier at the named point.

 

For/Fot

FOR and FOT mean "Free on Rail" and "Free on Truck". These terms are synonymous since the word "Truck" relates to the railway wagons. They should only be used when the goods pre to be carried by rail.

 

Fob Airport

FOB Airport is based on the same main principle as the ordinary FOB term. The seller fulfils his obligations by delivering the goods to the air carrier at the airport of departure. The risk if loss of or damage to the goods is transferred from the seller to the buyer when the goods have been so delivered.

 

FAS

FAS means "Free Alongside Ship". Under this term the seller's obligations are fulfilled when the goods have been placed alongside the ship on the quay or in lighters. This means that the buyer has to bear all costs and risks of loss of or damage to the goods from that moment.

 

FOB

FOB means "Free on Board". The goods are placed on board a ship by the seller at a port of shipment named in the sales contract. The risk of loss of or damage to the goods is transferred from the seller to the buyer when the goods pass the ship's rail.

 

С & F

С & F means "Cost and Freight". The seller must pay the costs and freight necessary to bring the goods to the named destination, but the risk of loss of or damage to the goods is transferred from the seller to the buyer when the goods pass the ship's rail in the port of shipment.

 

 

CIF

CIF means "Cost, Insurance and Freight". This term is basically the same as С & F but with the addition that the seller has to procure marine insurance against the risk of loss of or damage to the goods during the carriage. The seller contracts with the insurer and pays the insurance premium.

 

Freight Carriage Paid To

Like C&F "Freight or Carriage paid to..." means that the seller pays the freight for the carriage of the goods to the named, destination. However, the risk of loss of or damage to the goods is transferred from the seller to the buyer when the goods have been delivered into the custody of the first carrier and not at the ship's rail. It can be used for all modes of transport including multimodal operations and container or roll on-roll off traffic by trailers and ferries. When the Seller has to furnish a bill of lading, waybill or carrier's receipt, he duly fulfils this obligation by presenting such a document issued by the person with whom he has contracted for carriage to the named destination.

 

Freight Carriage and Insurance Paid To

This term is the same as "Freight or Carriage Paid to..." but with the addition that the seller has to procure transport insurance against the risk of loss of or damage to the goods during the carriage. The seller contracts with the insurer and pays the insurance premium.

 

EX Ship

"EX Ship" means that the seller shall make the goods available to the buyer on board the ship at the destination named in the sales contract.

 

EX Quay

"EX Quay" means that the seller makes the goods available to the buyer on the quay (wharf) at the destination named in the sales contract.

 

Delivered at Frontier

"Delivered at Frontier" means that the seller's obligations are fulfilled when the goods have arrived at the frontier - but before "the customs border" of the country named in the sales contract.

 

Delivered Duty Paid

While the term "Ex Works" signifies the seller's minimum obligation, the term "Delivered Duty Paid", when followed by words naming the buyer's premises, denotes the other extreme - the seller's maximum obligation. The term "Delivered Duty Paid" may be used irrespective of the mode of transport.

Packing and Marking

Packing goods for export is a highly specialized job. If the goods are improperly packed and marked, the carrier will refuse to accept them, or will make qualifications about the unsatisfactory condition of packing in the bill of lading.

Packing can be external (crate, bag) and internal (box, packet, flask etc.), in which the goods are sold.

In case of consumer goods packing has a double function. On the one hand, it is for protection. On the other – it serves to advertise a product and attract a customer.

Marking should be in indelible paint with recognized kind of marks.

Insurance of Goods

The export trade is subject to many risks. Ships may sink or collide; consignments may be lost or damaged. All sensible businessmen now insure goods for the full value. The idea of insurance is to obtain indemnity in case of damage or loss. Insurance is against risk.

While the goods are in a warehouse, the insurance covers the risk of fire, burglary, etc.

As soon as the goods are in transit they are insured against pilferage, damage by water, breakage or leakage. Other risks may also be covered.

The insured is better protected if his goods are insured against all risks. The goods may be also covered against general and particular average.

In the insurance business the word average means loss. Particular average refers to risks affecting only one shipper's consignment.

General average refers to a loss incurred by one consignor but shared by all the other consignors who use the same vessel on the same voyage.

Ukrainian foreign trade organizations in most cases take out insurance with Ingosstrakh. Goods may be insured as well with some other insurance companies which have recently appeared in Ukraine.

Force Majeure

Force majeure is a force against which you cannot act or fight.

Every contract has a force majeure clause. It usually includes natural disasters such as an earthquake, flood, fire, etc. It can also list such contingencies as war, embargo, sanctions. Along with this there are some other circumstances beyond the Sellers' control. The Seller may find himself in a situation when he can't fulfil his obligation under the Contract. It may happen if there is general strike in the country, a strike of coal-miners, transport workers etc. Production may be suspended if there is a shortage of the energy supply. When negotiating a contract a list of contingencies must be agreed on and put into the Contract.

When a manager makes up a contract he must not think only of his one-sided interest. He must think in terms of common interest with his counterpart. Only then will he prove loyal to his partner.

In case of a contingency the Seller must notify the Buyers of a force majeure. The Article of the Contract to this effect may run:

"Should the Seller fail to notify the Buyer of a contingency the Seller is denied a right to refer to these circumstances". The Seller is to notify the Buyer of a contingency right away. If it's done in due time the Buyer may take immediate action to protect his interest. He may sign a contract with another supplier on similar terms or if it's impossible he will secure the best possible terms he can have at the moment. If prices are rising he will be quick to act and will do everything possible to negotiate the best price obtainable at the moment.

A force majeure must be a proven fact. The Seller is to submit to the Buyer a written confirmation issued by the Chamber of Commerce to this effect. The certificate testifies that a contingency really took place. It describes its nature and confirms its duration.

In a dispute between the Buyer and the Seller not only the fact of a contingency is to be ascertained. The Seller must have evidence that non-execution of a contract or its partial fulfilment is a direct result of a contingency. If it is proved the Seller is not liable and the execution of a contract is postponed until all the after-effects causing damage are eliminated. A natural disaster may last only a few minutes but it'll take a lot of time to recover the loss.

The duration of a force majeure is, as a rule, 4 or 6 months. After that the Buyer has a right to cancel the contract. The Seller in this case has no right to claim any compensation for his loss

 

Note!      The wording of a force majeure clause must be very precise. When negotiating this point you must foresee the contingenсies which may be detrimental to you.

Claims and Sanctions

A contract defines rights and obligations of the parties involved.

In case of breach of Contract the sufferer makes a claim on he party which fails to meet its contract obligations. It is more often the case that it is the Buyer who makes a claim on the Seller.

Most often the Buyer makes quality and quantity claims on the Seller. The cause for complaint may be poor quality, breakage, damage, short weight, leakage etc.

 

What is the claim procedure?

The Buyer must write a statement of claim and mail it to the Seller together with the supporting documents. Bill of Lading, Airway and Railway Bill, Survey Report, Quality Certificate nay serve as documentary evidence. If necessary, drawings, photos, samples are enclosed as proofs of claims. The date of a complaint is the date on which it is mailed.

Claims can be lodged during a certain period of time, which is usually fixed in a Contract.

During the claim period the Seller is to enquire into the case and communicate his reply. He either meets the claim or declines it.

The Seller declines liability if the B/L is "clean", that is the shipping company hasn't made any remarks about the quantity or condition of the cargo shipped.

The Seller has also a full right to decline a claim if the goods are disorderly stored, mishandled or misused by the Buyer. If a claim has a legitimate ground behind it the parties try to settle it amicably.

 

What are the ways of settling a claim?

In case of short-weight it is recompensed by a load sent separately or at the time of follow-up shipments. In case of damage or faults, the goods at the Buyer's option can be repaired or replaced, all at the Seller's expense.

Sometimes if deviation in quality is within certain limits the goods can be retained but with an allowance proportionate to the discrepancy in quality. This is usually the case with raw materials, foodstuffs or any other goods sent in bulk.

If the goods are missing the Seller must necessarily locate them. Sometimes it is quite a problem as consignments may be lost when transshipped at some intermediate port or if sent at a wrong address. If the goods are not recovered compensation must be paid by the party directly responsible for it.

 

What is the sanction against the Seller if he fails to deliver the goods by the date due?

The Seller is penalized. The rate of penalty is fixed in the Penalty Clause or in the Clause of Agreed and Liquidated Damages.

If the delay is longer than 2 months the Buyer has the option of cancelling the Contract altogether but the Seller is to compensate for the loss incurred.

 

What may be the grounds for complaint coming from the Seller and what are the ways of settlement?

The Seller in his turn is entitled to make a claim on his counterpart if the Buyer fails to meet his contractual obligations.

The Seller may inflict penalties on the Buyer if there is a default in payment.   

In an f.o.b. transaction the Seller is entitled to compensation for extra storage expenses if the Buyer's vessel bound to pick up the goods fails to call at the port in time.

In a c.i.f. transaction the Seller may claim the demurrage if his own vessel stays idle at the port awaiting unloading.

The demurrage claims may emerge from the Buyer as well as Contract is signed on f.o.b. terms of delivery. If it is a c.i.f. соntract, the Buyer is liable to extra storage expenses when through the Seller's fault he cannot clear the goods from the customs within the allowable period.

Financially, legitimate claims are in large part settled by debit or credit notes.

Business Plan Basics

 

1. Try to answer the following questions.

 

2. Why is developing a business plan one of the most important things to do?
3. If you’re running a business, do you need a business plan? Give reasons.
4. What are two most important goals of a business plan?

 

Now read the following paragraphs and check your answers.

 

There are a million things to do when you’re starting a business. And this is one of the most important: Developing a sound plan for your business. It will help you clarify your goals and objectives. It will serve as a step-by-step roadmap to the future.  But a sound business plan is also important if you’re already running a business.

 

First things first: Understand the big picture

There are a lot of ways a sound business plan will help your business. First of all, it will clarify your thinking, sharpen the focus of your business strategy, and make sure that your decisions are aligned with your goals. In that sense, it’s a valuable roadmap that will help you get where you want to go.

But there’s another very important use of your plan. It will help you convince potential partners, investors, lenders, and key vendors that you have thought through all of the major issues. And you have an effective game plan in place that will help you succeed.

Those are some of the major reasons why a carefully developed business plan is an essential requirement in the business world today. 

 

2.     Every business document has a structure. Complete the text about the structure and content of a business plan with appropriate headings from the box given below.

 

Your target audience Description of your business Your loan request (if you’re ready to apply) Your personnel Your operational procedures Executive Summary Your Cover Page and Table of Contents Financial performance data Economic analysis Your products & services Your business location Your management team Market analysis Your marketing plan

 

The anatomy of an effective plan   Now let’s take a quick look at the basic structure and content of an effective business plan. 1. _____________________________________________________________________ These pages come first. And they’re very important. After all, they’re the first pages any reader (including a prospective investor or lender) will see. They include basic information with your company name and contact information.   2. _____________________________________________________________________ Describe your business. Explain your motivation for starting it. Talk about the keys to your success. Then summarize the other major points in your plan. May it brief: try to keep it to just a few paragraphs. You should clearly communicate the vision and strategy behind your business.   3. _____________________________________________________________________ Here’s your opportunity to give a quick overview of your business. You’ll want to talk about the history behind your business and describe your basic management and operational structure. You’ll also want to include the names and contact information for all owners. And don’t forget to mention your key employees, too. 4. _____________________________________________________________________ The success of your business depends on what you can offer your customers. So you’ll want to include detailed descriptions of your offerings, including your pricing. It’s a key part of your business plan. It’s also important to explain why your offerings are unique. And why customers will buy them. Don’t forget to mention your sales goals, too.   5. _____________________________________________________________________ Satisfied, loyal customers are the key to the business success. In fact, the famous business writer Peter Drucker once said that the purpose of a business is to “create a customer.” That’s why you need to devote a very important section in your business plan to a discussion of your customers. Who are they? Why will they want to use your products or services? Why will they want to do business with you instead of your competitors? Your work on this section will help you sharpen the focus of your ongoing marketing efforts.   6. _____________________________________________________________________ Now that you have painted a clear picture of your customers, it’s time to talk about the business environment. Who are your major competitors? Is there a clear leader in the marketplace? Or is it a fragmented market with many small competitors? You’ll also want to discuss the competitive advantages you bring to the table that will help you grow your business and gain market share. You may even want to talk about how you’ve grown your business with your existing customers. It’s a great way to prove the effectiveness of your current business strategy.   7. _____________________________________________________________________ This section is simply a way to bring in some facts and figures from the local and national economy that support the business case for your business. If you’re a home builder, for example, population growth in your area would be a good fact to add. If you offer services to senior citizens, a statistic on the increasing number of local retirees could show that you have a real opportunity to grow your business in the future. With a little thought and research, you’ll have no trouble finding relevant economic data to include in your plan.   8. _____________________________________________________________________ Where to place your business is an important decision for every business. And it can have a big impact on your ability to succeed. So take the time to describe the location of your business and explain its advantages. For example, you may be located close to your most important customers. Or you may be based in an economical area that helps you lower your operating costs.   9. _____________________________________________________________________ It covers the strategy and tactics you will use to get the word out about your business to your customers and prospects. So make sure you include the following information in this section of your business plan: Your communication goals  The key messages you intend to send to your customers and prospects The specific communication channels you will use to reach your target audience. These channels can include everything from traditional collaterals like brochures and signage to print and online advertising, social media, your website, Search Engine Optimization, broadcast TV and radio, and more. The estimated annual cost of your marketing efforts The additional revenue you expect to generate 10. _____________________________________________________________________ Before you can sell products and services, you have to develop them and deliver them to your customers. So talk about how you develop or acquire new products and services. Describe the length of time it takes to get a new offering to the market. Identify the essential equipment used in the development and delivery process. And discuss the way you resolve any operational problems.    11. _____________________________________________________________________ It often takes a group of highly skilled leaders and managers to operate a successful business. That’s why it’s important to provide information on your ‘key players’ in your plan. Identify their roles. Describe their skills and experience. And don’t forget to include their resumes, too.   12. _____________________________________________________________________ All of the people you hire play a major role in your success. So you’ll want to talk about your workforce in your plan. Do you intend to hire more people in the immediate future? How many do you expect to add to your team? What skills are most important to your business? What plans are you making to ensure that you will have the talents and skills you need? These are some of the questions to address in this section of your business plan. 13. _____________________________________________________________________ When you’re ready to prove that your business has a strong financial foundation, concrete numbers and metrics are hard to beat. That’s why it’s important to include the following in your plan: Income Statement Balance Sheet Cash Flow Projections Operating Data Personal Financial Statement Debt to Worth Ratio Gross Profit Margin Depending on your business, you may want to include other financial data as well.   14. _____________________________________________________________________ If you take the time to include all of this important information, you’ll be able to tell an effective story about your business to any target audience you have in mind, including investors, partners, prospective team members, and more. But your plan also serves another purpose. It can help you get a business loan. Of course, you’ll need to identify the specific amount you want to borrow and discuss how the money will help you achieve your goals. You should also explain how the financial information in your plan gives a strong indication that you will be able to repay your loan while managing all of your other business obligations.

7.    When developing your business plan, consider how your company deals with these outside changes. Also anticipate __________ internal changes, such as __________, the arrival or departure of key personnel, and new products or services.

A clear policy of honesty and fairness makes decision-making in difficult situations easier, inspires customer and employee loyalty, and helps avoid costly lawsuits and regulatory fines.

The Business Concept Meeting needs is the basis of all business. You can (1)_______ a wonderful new machine, but if it doesn’t address some real and important need or desire, people won’t (2)_______ it, and your business will (3)_______. Even Thomas Edison recognized this fact when he said, “Anything that won’t (4)_______, I don’t want to invent.”   Typically, (5)_______ get their original business inspiration from one of four sources: previous work (6)_______; (7)_______ or training; hobbies, talents, or other personal (8)_______ ; or recognition of an unanswered need or market (9)_______. Occasionally, the impetus comes from the business experience of a (10)_______or friend.   As you (11)_______ your business concept, keep in mind that successful businesses (12)_______ at least one of these (13)_______: something new, something better, underserved or new market, new delivery or distribution, and increased integration.   Successful Business Elements Include at least one of these as you refine your business concept.   Something New Something Better Underserved or New Market New Delivery or Distribution Increased Integration Create a new product, (14)_______, feature, or technology. Improve on existing product or service: more features, lower price, greater reliability, faster (15)_______, or increased convenience. Find a market with greater demand than competitors can (16)_______, an unexploited niche market, or an unserved (17)_______. Provide products or services less expensively, to a wider geographic area, or with greater (18)_______. Both (19)_______ and sell your product, or offer more services and products in one location.   Your (20)_______ should incorporate at least one of these factors – more than one if possible. Ideally, you can bring a new or better product or service to an identifiable but underserved (21)_______, perhaps using a more efficient distribution (22)_______. Evaluate the ways your business concept (23)_______ the elements described above. Your concept should be strong in at least one area. If not, you should (24)_______ yourself how your company will be truly competitive.

 

 

Exercise 5.  Complete the abstract about understanding the market. Definitions are given in brackets to help you.

 

Understanding the Market It is not enough to have a great idea or new invention as the (1) b___________s (underlying support or foundation for an idea, argument, or process) of your business; you must also have a market that is sufficiently large, accessible, and responsive. If your market isn’t large enough, you can’t reach it (2) e___________y (effectively), or it isn’t ready for you. Your business will (3) f___________l (be unsuccessful in achieving one's goal), no matter how good your business concept. Consider the automatic teller machine (ATM) seen on virtually every street (4) c___________r (a place where two or more streets meet). It was invented more than 10 years before it became (5) p___________r (liked or admired by many people or by a particular person or group), but the company that initially (6) m___________ed (offered for sale) the ATM was unsuccessful — people weren’t yet willing to trust their banking to machines.   First, (7) e___________e (judge or determine the significance, worth, or quality of something) whether market (8) d___________d (the desire of consumers, clients, employers, etc. for a particular commodity, service, or other item) is adequate to support your company. For instance, if you are opening a flower (9) s___________p (a building or part of a building where goods or services are sold) in a neighborhood where none currently exists, what indications are there that the neighborhood (10) r___________ts (people who live somewhere permanently or on a long-term basis) are interested in buying flowers? Do they currently purchase flowers at a nearby (11) s___________t (a large self-service shop selling foods and household goods)? Does national data on the demographics of flower purchasers coincide with neighborhood demographics? Perhaps you should conduct a (12) s___________y (an investigation of the opinions or experience of a group of people, based on a series of questions) of the neighborhood’s residents, asking about their flower-buying habits and (13)p_________ces (greater liking for one alternative over another).   Next, if you are creating a new product or service, what indications are there that the market will be receptive to you? Market readiness is one of the most difficult and most unpredictable aspects to (14) m___________e (ascertain the size, amount, or degree of something). That is why companies spend substantial amounts of money on market research before (15) l___________g (introducing into the market) a new product.   You may not have the (16) f___________ds (money; capital) to undertake extensive market (17)r___________h (systematic investigation into and study of materials and sources in order to establish facts and reach new conclusions), but even a small amount of analysis can help you gauge the receptivity of a particular market to your idea. When gathering information for your business plan, spend (18) c___________e (great in amount or degree) time learning about your market. The more you understand the various factors that (19) a___________t (influence) your market, the more likely you are to (20) s___________d (achieve the desired aim or result).

 

 

Exercise 5.  Fill in the missing letters to complete the text about researching industry health and trends.

 

Industry Health and Trends Your business does not (1) o_e_ _ te in a vacuum; generally, your company is subject to the same conditions that (2) a_ _e_t your overall industry. If (3) c_ _s _ _er spending declines nationally, there’s a good chance your (4) re _ _ _ l business — whether a neighborhood boutique or an online shopping (5) m_ _l mall — will also experience poor sales.   As you (6) d_ _ _l_p your plan, you need to respond to the industry-wide factors affecting your own company’s (7) p_ _f_ _ _a _ _e. While it is certainly possible to make (8) m_ _ _y in an industry that is experiencing hard times, you can only do so if you make a conscious (9) e_f_ _t to position your company appropriately. For example, if you are in the construction (10) b_ _ _n_ _s and the number of new-home starts is down, you may want to (11) t_ _ _ et the remodeling market or the commercial real estate market rather than the new-home construction market.   Investors and (12) l_ _d_ rs are particularly sensitive to (13) i_s_ _ s of industry health. It is much harder to raise money to start or (14) ex_ _ _d businesses in troubled industries. Even though (15) op_ _ _t _n _ _ _ _s exist in such fields, investors and bankers are concerned about the increased risks an (16) e_t_ _p_ _ _e faces in an unhealthy industry. Conversely, if your business is in a healthy and expanding industry, investors are likely to be more receptive.   What (17) d_ _ _ c _ _оn is your industry going? It is important to look at the major (18) t_ _n_s that will influence industry health in the future as well as examining its current (19) c_nd_ _ _ _n. Is the industry consolidating as big companies merge into huge businesses? What is happening with pricing pressures, consumer (20) d_m_ _d, availability of parts and supplies, and global (21) c_ _p _ t_t _ _т?   If you are seeking outside funds, your business plan must reassure investors or (22) b_ _k _rs that you understand the industry factors affecting your company’s health and that you have taken those factors into (23)c_ _s_d_r_t_ _n when developing your business (24) s_r_t_ _y.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Exercise 6.  Translate the words in brackets into English so as to get the paragraph about financial control.

 

Financial Control Key to any business is how it (1)_____________ (розпоряджатися; керувати) money. Not fully anticipating (2)_____________ ___________ (витрати на заснування нового бізнесу) can immediately place impossible pressures on a new business. Poor (3)_____________ ___________ ___________ (управління грошовими потоками) can bring down even a seemingly thriving business. One of “Rhonda’s Rules” is “Things take longer and cost more than anticipated.” Build financial cushions in your plan to allow for (4)_____________ (непередбачуваний, неочікуваний) expenses and (5)_____________ (затримки).   As you develop your business plan, (6)_____________ ___________ (переконуватись) you have the information to understand your financial picture on an ongoing basis. What does it take to open your doors each month? Where is your real (7)_____________ ___________ (центр отримання прибутку)? How much expansion do you need to maintain (8)_____________ (зростання)? What are the hidden costs of marketing your company? What are the (9)_____________ (наслідки) of your credit policies?   Build in mechanisms to keep you continually informed as your business develops. It is easier to (10)_____________ (встановлювати) good financial procedures right from the start than to wait until you face a (11)_____________ ___________ (фінансова криза). How frequently will you do your billing? What kinds of credit policies will your business follow? How will you keep informed on (12)_____________ (наявні товари; запас)?   Make certain you receive detailed (13)_____________ ___________ (фінансова звітність; бухгалтерська звітність;) at least monthly and that you understand them thoroughly. Examine financial reports for any (14)_____________ (відхилення) from your plan or any indications of impending cash flow problems.   Controlling and understanding your finances makes (15)_____________ (рішення) easier. And you’ll sleep better at night.

 

 

Exercise 7.  In the text Capable Management words in the phrases in bold are all in the wrong places. Put them in the correct places to make a correct statement.

 

Capable Management Perhaps more than any other factor, competent management stands out as (1) important most ingredient the in business success. The people in key positions are crucial in determining the health and viability of your business. Moreover, because of (2) capable the management of importance to business success, many investors and venture capital firms (3) emphasis place greatest on single the this factor when evaluating business plans and deciding on loans or investments. They’ll review the management section of a business plan with special scrutiny. Your business plan must inspire confidence in (4) management of the your capabilities, and you should put your management team together carefully.   Before submitting your business plan to investors, (5) own your conduct of analysis your management team. Evaluate each individual (and yourself) to see if he or she fits the profile of a successful manager. Some of the traits shared by successful managers are: Experience.

Business Plan

 

A business plan is a formal statement of a set of business goals, the reasons why they are believed attainable, and the plan for reaching those goals. It may also contain background information about the organization or team attempting to reach those goals.

1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

 

Chicken Express is a locally owned fast food outlet that will be positioned as an international franchise through our creative approach to the company's image and detail presentation. Chicken Express will provide a combination of excellent food at value pricing, with fun packaging and atmosphere. Chicken Express is the answer to an increasing demand for snack-type fast food, to be consumed while window shopping and walking around inside a shopping mall. In today's highly competitive environment, it is becoming increasingly difficult to differentiate one fast food outlet from another. Karachi, a city state, is now becoming the model metropolis for Asia's new economic boom. Our main priority is to establish one outlet in a crowded mall, preferably in one of prominent shopping malls in Karachi. Later, our effort will be a further development of more retail outlets in the surrounding area.

 

1.1 Objectives 

To establish a presence as a successful local fast food outlets and gain a market share in Karachi's fast food industry.

To make Chicken Express a destination spot for mall-goers.

To expand into a number of outlets by year three, and sell the franchise to neighboring metropolitan cities, such as Lahore, Islamabad, Hyderabad and Faisalabad.

 

1.2 Mission 

 Our main goal is to be one of the most successful fast food outlets in Karachi, starting with one retail outlet located inside a major shopping mall as a "market tester."Chicken Express will strive to be a premier local fast food brand in the local market place. We want our customers to have the total experience when visiting our outlet(s) and web site as they will learn about this fascinating new "pop culture." We will sell merchandise from pre-packaged sauces and t-shirts, to potato cutters, all with our official brand attached to them. Our main focus will be serving high-quality food at a great value.

 

1.3 Keys to Success 

To succeed in this business we must:

Create a unique, innovative, entertaining menu that will differentiate us from the rest of the competition.

Control costs at all times, in all areas and implement a conservative approach to growth policy. Although, we provide more than enough fund to open more than one outlet, we want to be on the safe side of the business.

Sell the products that are of the highest quality, as well as keeping the customers happy with all of our product categories from food to store merchandising.

Provide 100% satisfaction to our customers and maintaining the level of excellent services among other competitors.

Encourage the two most important values in fast food business: brand and image, as these two ingredients are couple of main drivers in marketing communications.

Get access to high-traffic shopping malls near the target market.

Promote good values of company culture and business philosophy.

 

2. COMPANY SUMMARY

 

What is Chicken Express?

 Chicken Express focuses primarily on Fried chicken, Catfish, and chicken tenders but also serves sides. Such as fried pickle slices, apple pie, mashed potatoes, gravy, cheese sticks, Cole slaw, French fries, & corn nuggets. We use the concept of Belgian Fries, where the fries are all made from fresh potatoes and fried twice. Our outlet also provides excellent and friendly customer service to support the ambience of fun, energetic and youthful lifestyle.

Youthful and fresh surroundings

We will imitate successful establishments, such as Pizza Hut and Hardees, which represent the majority of our core target market, between 18 to 35 years of age. Our store will feature display cooking of our featured Fried Chicken from cutting to frying. Our store will be decorated with fast food setting, such as a bright counter and display menu on the wall.

Quality food & Open every day

 Each store will offer nothing but freshly fried chicken, sandwiches and variety of unique blend sauces, all served with old-fashioned home-style care. Our store is open every day from 10 am to 1 am.

 

2.1 Company Ownership 

Chicken Express is a privately held company. It will be registered as a Limited company.

 

2.2 Start- Up  Summary 

 The retail outlet will be rented at one of the target location shopping malls. Our preference is Zamzama, for the main reason of reaching larger traffic. Startup requirements will be financed through owner investments.

 

2.3 Company Locations and Facilities 

Chicken Express locations will range in size from 50

 70 meter square and will seat from 15- 25 guests. Our first location will be on the larger end of this range. The location will feature its own originality in merchandise display and other brand building attributes. We will equip the outlet with modern furniture and aim for cleanliness and an open feeling. We are currently looking at several possible sites in shopping malls along Zamzama. The space selection will be chosen based upon the following criteria:

Community size: minimum of 800,000 people within a radius of 8 kilometers.

Tourist destination.

Easy access.

Large percentage of teenagers in the community.

All of these qualities are consistent with Chicken Express' goal of providing a top quality fast food experience. We want "word-of-mouth" to be our best form of marketing, where our customers value our brand as something exciting and cannot wait to tell their friends and neighbors. Chicken Express will directly compete with several fast food joints inside the chosen shopping mall, including Pizza Hut, KFC, and Mc Donald’s.

 

3. PRODUCTS

 

We want to focus only on selling chicken and chicken related dishes. Alcoholic drinks will not be sold in our outlet, as Chicken Express promotes a healthy and positive Pakistani lifestyle. Instead, we will offer Soda to complement the food.

 

3.1 Competitive Comparison 

Chicken Express has several advantages over its leading competitors:

Unique "fusion" concept of dipping sauce.

 We expect a high degree of enthusiasm and offer a fun store with friendly staff that reflects the company's youthful and energetic culture.

 Supporting merchandise items that support the company's brand building.

 Our fried potato is made 100% fresh, compared to most fast food outlets that use frozen fries.

 Our dipping sauce is also made fresh without preservatives.

 Our innovative packaging will be more entertaining than our competitors; a single cone with a cup reserved for dipping sauce.

 

4. MARKET ANALYSIS SUMMARY

 

Consumer expenditures for fast food in Karachi rose during the end of the year 2000. The increasing number of new establishments such as fast food franchises, fancy restaurants and gourmet bakeries around Karachi has shown a significant growth in this sector. A much broader appeal exists for weekend slots because those are the days when most of our core target market enjoys the mall going activities.

 

Age - Youngsters, single, currently enrolled in college and high school.

Family unit - We will also appeal to families (young families) with children.

Gender - We will target both sexes, with a slight skew for males due to their lower attention to dietary concerns.

Income - We will appeal to the medium income individuals and to all in the lower medium income bracket. Our concept will have very broad appeal. It is our goal to be the hip destination for fast food cravings.

 

4.1 Market Segmentation 

 

We are targeting young Karachites as our primary market. Due to heavy extra-curricular activities among Karachi's youth, it is common for high schoolers to have lunch inside shopping malls, and not at home. They tend to flock to fast food joints inside shopping malls across Zamzama. Our secondary market segment is the "Working Karachites." With so many shopping malls in the vicinity, Zamzama is the haven for shoppers and job seekers alike. Lastly, Zamzamais also the destination for tourists staying in the area. The five star hotels near Zamzama are the biggest accommodations in Karachi. Tourists will stroll  Zamzama, hunting for the latest trend in fashion and have no time to stop for a full meal during shopping. Chicken Express is the alternative for a quick bite while shopping the fancy boutiques in the area.

 

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy 

 

Chicken Express intends to cater to the bulk of teenagers and youngsters in Karachi. We have chosen this group for several important reasons. It is our goal to be "the extraordinary fast food place" and we believe that the age group from 15 to 25 is the primary age where brand building efforts could take place. They are on limited or fixed incomes and seek a value/price relationship that will not stretch their budgets. Our secondary target is between the ages of 25 and 37, which are a heavy lounge/restaurant user group. They are more flexible in budgets and seek more than a value/price relationship. Our lunch strategy is dual purposed. First, we are featuring fresh fries to fill Karachi's craving for fast food as most ideas of lunch is a quick bite not a heavy meal. Second, we want to keep the price point at lunch as fair as possible to keep us in competition with other fast food outlets.

 

4.3 Market Trends 

 

In the past, Karachites preferred Western chain restaurants. This was the time when KFC, McDonald's, and Pizza Hut were dominating most of the chains. But the trend seems to have shifted in the last decade, with the success of the locally grown brands. Many of these local brands grew to become giant franchises that dominate the Southeast Asia region.

 

4.4 Main  Competitors 

 Our main competitors in this segment are any food outlets within the 300 meter radius along the Zamzama. In our location, there are Pizza Hut, KFC, and Dominos.

 

5. MARKETING STRATEGY

 

Our strategy is based on serving our markets well. We will start our first outlet as a "market tester" that could become a model of the expanding number of outlets in the future. Concentration will be on maintaining quality and establishing a strong identity in the local market. A combination of local media and local store marketing programs will be utilized at each location. Local store marketing is most effective, followed by print ads. As soon as a concentration of stores is established in a market, then broader media will be explored. We believe, however, that the best form of advertising is still "buzz." By providing a fun and energetic environment, with unbeatable quality at an acceptable price in a clean and friendly outlet, we will be the talk of the town. We will deploy three different marketing tactics to increase customer awareness of Chicken Express. Our most important tactic will be "word-of-mouth" and in-store marketing. This will be by far the cheapest and most effective of our marketing programs because of the high traffic in targeted shopping locations. The second tactic will be local store marketing. These will be low-budget plans that will provide community support and awareness of our facility. The last marketing effort will be utilizing local media. Although, this will be the most costly, this tactic will be used sparingly as a supplement where necessary.

 

In-Store Marketing

 

• In-store brochures containing our concept and philosophy.
• Wall posters.
• Design concept.
• In-store viewing of making fries process from cutting to frying.
• Standing signage inside malls’ lobby/aisle.
• Outdoor signage (if possible).
• Grand opening promotion.
• Party catering.
• Merchandising items.

 Local Store Marketing

• Brochures.
• Free occasional t-shirts at local stores events.

 

 Local Media

• Direct mail piece containing brochures sent to surrounding addresses.
• Local magazines that target our core customers, such as Free Magazine.
• Newspaper campaign-placing several large ads throughout the month to explain our concept to the local area.

 

5.1 Pricing Strategy 

 Our pricing strategy is positioned as "generic", meaning that Rs 100 is the average consumer spending for a snack or light lunch in Karachi. Leveraging the volume of chicken, fries, Soda, and signature style sauces to be sold, we are serving the majority of Karachites.

 

5.2 Sales Strategy 

The sales strategy is to build and open new locations in order to increase revenue. However, this plan will be implemented when the one "market tester" outlet showed potential growth. As each individual location will continue to build its local customer base over the first three years of operation, the goal of each store is Rs 1,000,000 in annual sales, with the original flagship store expected to earn almost Rs 2,000,000 per year. We anticipate the highest peak on the months of June and July in our sales forecast, due to the holiday seasons.
