Myanmar
Brand Name: Foodie
Executive Summary
I’ d like to sell ready-made canned food in Myanmar Market. Firstly, I will start to sell
only in Yangon and Mandalay for Modern Trade and convenience stores. And then,
will go to whole sales and will extend the market as intensive distribution like other
FMCG products. Target consumer, Business executives and students who live in
Yangon and Mandalay and may be them are away from family and busy type person
and they don’t want to cook to get a curry but they want to eat dinner with curry,
their income level is from middle class and upper middle class, that we called B level.
I will sell 4 kinds of ready-made canned food like Hot and spicy fried fish, sardines in
tomato sauce, beef curry and pork curry. The objective is to achieve 20.1 Million USD
in sales from all 4 products in Yangon and Mandalay by the end of 2017-18 financial
year (it means within 1 year) and breakeven will meet on 1 year sales. After that, I
will expend the market to next 4 cities with another 1 year plan.
Mission Statement
We are producing and selling the ready-made food product that we are focused on
healthy recipes and best Myanmar taste for those who don’t have time to cook in
city life.
Vision Statement
We want to become ready-made food market leader in Myanmar and we want to
expand the market not only Myanmar but also we will try to export to other
countries where Myanmar families lives in there. Moreover, we want to promote our
recipes and Myanmar curry taste to those country.
Situation Analysis
Company Goal

To become market leader in ready-made food industry within 3 years
Focus

City life busy people, Business executives, students away from family who live
in apartment, hostel and home alone

Healthy recipes like fish sauce, real peanut oil and a little amount of sugar like
this. We will not use any unhealthy recipes to our curry.

High tech machine of us can cover unwanted side effects that happened in
low end brand come from black market.
Culture
Most Burmese people are almost eaten at home for breakfast, lunch and dinner that
have prepared by Mother or elder sister or home maid. But, Country is now
developing in the stage and job opportunities are coming and booming. Therefore,
Burmese women working rate is higher than before and women take important role
in related sector and industry parallel with Men. So, they have to study, have to
learn and have to spend time for carrier development and social status. In the
meantime, they are working and taking important role in their company, jobs and
family too. Even they know they have to cook for family or for themselves, but they
don’t have enough time. As a result, they got stress of it and they are finding the
reliable food with healthy recipes that they can bought easily at City Mart and
convenience stores like ABC, g & g and City Express.
SWOT Analysis
Strengths

We well know Myanmar insights and Myanmar taste.

Raw materials can get easily and we have sources

We have strong network and contacts to distribute and sell our product

We know the Myanmar culture (it’s will be strength in marketing
communications)
Weaknesses

Price line will be a little high rather than ready-made canned food that comes
from Thai and China via black market.

Lack of brand recognition because it was a new start up business

Need to take on debt to get the business off the ground.
Opportunities

Young Adults growing rates is higher than before (working age is 18 to 60,
this segment is a quite big for market opportunities)

Female can stand the same as male in all role

Health Conscious mindset (they will not eat cheaper canned food that come
from China via black market and it can be caused unwanted side effects)

Educated Environment is larger and larger (they will request FDA and
consumer rights, we are doing business in Myanmar with FDA approved and
healthy recipes focus, we will be here for all responsibilities for our customer
satisfactions, we are reliable one)
Threats

Thai Food (“Ready” Canned Food, current market leader in ready-made food
market)

Cheaper canned box that comes from China

High quality machines- Equipment is expensive

Cannot start with Mass production (Cost of production will be effected)
Market Trends
This growth is fueled by the changes in the workplace and workforce that are
causing workers to consume more of their meals away from home. Away from home
food sales are expected to increase year by year according to MMRD (research firm).
As more and more consumers eat away from home, the demand for higher quality is
also growing. Margins will increase as premium prices are being placed on branded,
high-quality products. Demographic trends are affecting the industry. A large group
of young adults, who mainly grew up on fast food, have emerged as an economic
force. This group's perceptions on fast food, technology, will have a positive impact
in ready-made food business.
Competitors and Market Share
The main competitor is “Ready” canned food that come from Thai and they have
already entered officially in last 3 years ago. The most ready-made canned foods
come from Thailand and some from China.
The Market is still huge to enter as a new brand since economy is growth and job
opportunities also growth. The urban city life people have to work from the start of
the day to the end and they have to go school for post grad diploma of their related
field for their carrier growth and status and some are attending MBA class. And,
most people around country, after they have graduated, they came to Yangon and
then they are working for their better future. Mandalay is second City followed by
Yangon.
