EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

4
Many Pakistanis have a perception that not having a cup of tea in the morning will leave
a day blank for them, tea one of the most used beverage after water in Pakistan and it is
so popular that its nearly impossible to start a day with out a cup of tea. Serving guests
with hospitality is that guests are always asked for tea in Pakistan, in offices people
always want a tea for refreshment this is explaining how much tea is given importance in
Pakistani peoples life.

The goal of this business plan is to outline the strategies, tactics, and programs that will
make the sales goals outlined in the Green Land Tea Manufactures business plan into
reality in the year 2010. Basically there are 9 persons which are going to establish a
unique business in Pakistan as entrepreneurs. We needed Rs 10.0 billions to start this
business. We have Rs 4.0 billions as owners equity and remaining Rs 6.0 billions will
get from banks in the shape of loan. Pay back period of our investment is 7.83 years.
Capital budgeting showing that our project has a positive net present value and higher
internal rate of return than to the market opportunity rate 13%.
Green Land Tea Manufactures, unlike a typical company, provides a unique form for
taste and high quality tea within no time. The name of the product is Instant Tea. Actually
Green Land Tea Manufacturers is the answer to an increasing demand for quality tea in
shortest possible time.

The instant tea is basically a ready to use tea just put the teabags with all the required
quality tea ingredients (tea, powdered milk, and powdered sugar) into the hot water and
your refreshing hot tea is ready. We are getting the sugar from the local supplier, for the
milk powder we have contracted with 'Everyday' and we are importing tea from Kenya.

As a new brand is get underway in the market there are chances of failure so for that we
have conducted a market research & from that research we came to know that this
product will be a super hit in the market and exactly the customer want this product to
come into the market.

5
Marketing will play a vital role in the success of Green Land Tea Manufacturers. The
company will build a brand around the services it offers by heavily promoting itself
through local television, radio, and print advertising. Marketing efforts are just beginning
by the time a potential customer enters Green Land Tea Manufacturers for the first time.
A strong emphasis will be put on keeping customers and building brand loyalty through
programs focused on staffing, experience, and customer satisfaction.

The basic motive behind every business is to generate profits out of it. We also need
profits to manage our needs and growth of the business. We will focus on superior quality
as well as reasonable price that customer can afford.

Basically the idea behind this company is that think big by thinking small means that we
want an entrepreneurial change in the culture of tea. For starting our entrepreneurial
activities we have targeted the small part of working class people because this working
class has one of the major effects on the economy of the country.

For that we are moving with the Motto:

We are not just asking for your money; but we are anxious about your
time

INTRODUCTION TO PRODUCT

It is a new product to be launched in the market about which you have never listened and
even never thought before. It will be launched and come in the market in year 2010. It is
basically a consumer product and is necessity of almost every house and it is usually used
in routine in many houses and offices. The name of the product is: INSTANT TEA.
Instant Tea is manufactured by the GREEN LAND MANUFACTURES. Our tea has
special feature that it is prepared within few seconds and all ingredients (tea, powdered
milk, and powdered sugar) are combined in a balanced quantity in the Quick Time. It is
in the form of teabags. You have to do nothing, just boil water and dip the teabag in that
and your delicious tea is prepared in few seconds time. There was never such an easy
way to prepare a quality tea that we have made possible

WAS IT DREAM?

We strongly believe in an idea and a vision rather than a dream. What we have always
wanted for ourselves, we want this for others as well. We want to make people realize
that they can have the quick time making of tea to save their time.
We would promote Healthy & Tasty living.

Instant tea bags will be very proficient for the users and customers as all want something
that can be prepared quickly and within a blink of an eye. So we have firm belief that as
this product has not been introduced in Pakistan it will have its unique attraction and rare
importance among the consumers. The whole idea behind this concept was to introduce
new and improved drinking habits of the people.

VISION STATEMENT
We aim to be the market leaders of Tea Industry

MISSION STATEMENT
We provide instant flavored tea with all required contents in a tea bag to
our time starved customers in urban areas. Our aim is to become market
leader in instant tea with our committed employees.

SITUATION ANALYSIS

Tea is the cheapest and most popular beverage that is served at both professional and
social gatherings all over the world. In Pakistan it is counted as a staple food item of
common man and is an integral part of our culture and heritage. Due to these causes
Pakistan consumes a substantial quantity of tea. There are many brands like Lipton,
Tapal, Supreme etc that are fulfilling the Pakistans demand for tea but no one pay
attention to that now people are becoming time conscious. They dont want to waste their
time, they want to utilize their time in productive things, here we found a gap so keeping
in view this need of our customers on which no one is paying attention we are going to
provide tea in the form of tea bags that will be proficient for the customers and the users
as all want some thing being prepared quickly with in blink of an eye.

ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS

We have conducted the SWOT and PEST analysis that what kind of situation we are
going to face when we launch our product. By knowing that what our strength and
weakness and with help of that we can convert the threats into opportunities. Also we
conducted PEST analysis to know the political, economical, and social & technological
situation in the country.

11
SWOT ANALYSIS

The SWOT analysis provides us with an opportunity to examine the internal strengths
and weaknesses we must address. It also allows us to examine the opportunities presented
to the company as well as potential threats.

STRENGTHS:

i. Strong Partners; All of our business partners are knowledgeable, friendly and
strong. Also our suppliers such as EVERYDAY very strong and supportive to us.
All are committed to enhance the quality of product with their support and hard
work.

ii. Clear Vision of the Market Need; Green Land Manufacturers clearly know the
need of their customers and they aim at satisfying their customers in best possible
way.

iii. Easy Changes in Strategies; As we are engaged in a small business unit so it is


our strength that we can change our strategies with changing mood of the
environment.

iv. Unique Product; We have no direct competitors in the market because we are the
first movers and introducing a unique product.

WEAKNESSES:

i. Low Capital: We dont have much capital to fianc our business and it is one of
our weaknesses.

ii. Dependence on Quickly Changing Technology: This is the era of rapidly


advancements in the technology that is bought only with huge capital and in start
we would have low capital to spend on that.

12
OPPORTUNITIES:

i. Growing Population of Daily Tea Users: Now-a-day, tea has almost a necessity
of every individual. As the population of daily tea users increases, we have an
opportunity to capture more of the market share.

ii. Stable Industry: Tea industries comparatively a stable industry as compared to


other industries. So our product has opportunity to grow in the market and we can
make huge profits out of it.

THREATS:

Cheap Technology: As the technology is being getting cheap and cheap day by
day it is possible that in future we might have number of competitors.

PEST ANALYSIS

PEST analysis tells us about political, economic, social and technological effects faced by
our product in the market.

Political Effect:

The Government policies regarding the business class in Pakistan and regarding other
matters may affect our business too. But we do not expect that we would have many
problems regarding political conditions in Pakistan.

Economical Effect:

Our teabags formed tea would not be much expensive for our customers and would be
sold at affordable price. It will also be economic for us as manufacturers because we
would be able to make it on lower cost and sell on high price and will gain profits for us
as well.

13
Social Effects:

We may face certain problems regarding the peoples response to our product. In this
region the people are conservative and loyal with their already using brand, not want
changes in their lives. So, it will effect or difficult for people to change their traditional
taste of tea with a newly emerged tea. But we shall formulate the strategies to overcome
their problems and make the people addicted to our product.

Technological Effects:

We dont require high technology to prepare this tea. So, technology factor will not effect
as much as in other industries.

But one threat we face is that there are big giants sitting in the market like Lipton, Tapal
and Supreme etc. as technology is going on cheaper and cheaper day by day, so, they can
make a prodct like us in the future and our sales may deteriorate.

other local and future tea competitive companies.

socialization and entertainment.
High quality tea within a few seconds.

INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

Tea is the most popular beverage in many countries. More than 2.60 billion kilograms of
tea are produced annually in the world. There are three main kinds of tea, i.e. black, green
and olong. But generally black tea is liked and all tea producing countries manufacture
black tea.

In Pakistan, Pakistan is not a tea producing country but is an important consuming


country, being the third largest importer of tea in the world and therefore of considerable
interest to the main tea exporting countries.

The consumption of tea is about 175 million Kilograms, but custom statistics show tea
import of 105 million kilograms. According to the estimates, 70 million kilograms tea is
being smuggled in Pakistan through illegal channels.

Of the tea sold in Pakistan, 55% is unbranded or in loose form. 85% of this is based on
smuggled tea. The players in the remaining 45% segment are Unilever, Tapal, Vital, and
Tetley.

16
MARKET SHARE PICTURE

Our main focus is on organized tea market. Where different companies like UNILEVER
and TAPAL are holding the main market share. Some other companies also present in the
market but having very low share of the market.

Unilever Pakistan limited has 43% market share.


Tapal private limited has 41% market share.
Vital tea limited has 6% market share.
Tetley has 4% market share
The remaining 6% belongs to other market share in the organized market.

Unorganized market also captures a good market share in the total tea market of Pakistan.
55% is of unorganized tea.71% of total population of Pakistan are living in rural areas.
Due to illiteracy and lack of awareness they are consuming unorganized tea which is
mainly affecting the organized tea market. Due to this they are enjoying a very big
market share of the total tea market.

Organized segment mainly depend on the imported tea. Mainly big players are importing
tea from different countries like Kenya, UK, and Bangladesh

17
Future Outlook & Trends:

Tea industry is a growing industry in the world. In the most countries like Pakistan, the
tea is use as a second most popular beverage after water. But the market for quality tea
has unlimited upside potential for tea drinkers in this country. The market for high quality
tea is experiencing strong growth and this is expected to continue for foreseeable future.
The growth of revenue and profits for tea companies is very strong popularly.

commission on sales. For the purposes of financial planning, we combined the Sales
Associate's compensation into an aggregate forecast.

To be flexible in meeting the customer demand, we plan to stock a minimum amount of

accepted and later dispatched to customers by the company's executive team. Starting in
the second year, we plan to hire a full-time Inventory Manager to handle these tasks.

TARGET MARKET

Green Land Manufacturers customers can be divided into three groups.

The first group is familiar with the quick time concept and desires a progressive and
inviting atmosphere with their offices and workplace where they can enjoy a delicious
cup of tea with in few seconds. This group is made up of business people from different
offices and professional centers means people in Corporate Level.

The second group is not familiar with quick time tea concept. This group is made up of
seniors from the different retirement centers. Seniors represent a growing segment of
tea users. They use the tea with friends and family and they will be regular users of the
Instant Tea.

The third group is somehow familiar with this concept. This group is made up of
students. They represent the young segment of tea users. They use the tea during their
studies to refresh themselves and they will be regular users of the Instant Tea.

PLACEMENT OF PRODUCT

Location:
We have chosen the location for our business in the Faisalabad. In Faisalabad the shop
number is 55/C Batala Colony main road and in Shaheen Chok Saddar Bazaar Gulam
Muhammad Abad the shop number is 165 Commercial Market. Both shop size is of 20
by 20. This is enough for us to store our imported material and to use it as sales outlet
initially.

Placement is the 4th element or P in the four Ps of the marketing and it is very
important as it helps the businessman to bring product into the market. Also it is very
difficult decision to select an appropriate location. We have also worked on this element.

44
DISTRIBUTION CHANNELS

Manufacturer ------ Distributor--------- Retailers--------- Consumer

As Every Day is our partner, they supplied as powdered milk so we can also use their
distribution channel and has an agreement with the different distributors to deliver our
products to the final customers. Our distributors are focusing on the areas where there are
opportunities like bank square, commercial zones, small companies etc with in
Faisalabad. We are targeting these areas because our most of the target market is the
working class. The areas which the distributors are covering are as under:

D-Ground Faisalabad
Rail Bazaar Faisalabad
D type Colony Faisalabad
Millat town Faisalabad

Now the question comes that how our distribution channel works. Firstly we assemble the
product which we get from our source like tea, milk powder and sugar in the bulk to our
distributors. Then the order is placed by the customers to the distributors about their
required demand. After that the distributors set the order according to customers required
demand.

We will use several distribution channels according to the need of the time and nature of
the market. Whenever we will enhance our distribution channel it will also increase our
cost on the sale of the product as we will have to pay several. Intermediates involved in
the process of the distribution. So, we will keep our distribution cannel simpler in the
start of our business.
But as certain Offices are our target market, thats why, our representative distributors
will continuously make delivery in the banks and other offices. We will hire such a

45
person for this job who would have relationships in certain offices and who can convince
them to use our product.

In start of our business we will open our business outlet store in the almost centre of
Islamabad and Rawalpindi where the imported tea and powdered milk will be stored and
after the filling and packing process our tea would also be sold over there initially. At this
initial stage our distribution channel would be as:

MANUFACTURER DISTRIBUTORS CUSTOMERS

Distribution Strategy

Our representative distributors will continuously make delivery in the banks and
other offices in the city

PROMOTION

We believe that it is not enough to have good products just sold at attractive prices. To
generate sales and profits, the benefits of products have to be communicated to
customers.
Our Promotional Mix will be based on the following things:
Web promotion.
Advertisement.
Billboards.
Newspapers.
Broachers and Posters.
Cloth Banners.

46
Among all of these blends of promotional mix we will be focusing at most on the
Advertising blend. Other blends will be used whenever we would find any situation in
which they might be helpful to us.

OBJECTIVES OF PROMOTION

We will have several objectives of promotion which we will use to make our product
accepted. Those objectives might be:

To Inform:
As we are launching a new product in the market so we will promote our product in a
way that our customer might know about our product to be existed in the market

Persuade:
We will create a perception about our product in the minds of the customer that our
product is superior to the products currently available in the market.
Image Creation: By promotion we will create an image in minds of the customer that our
product is different than others in the market.

Reassurance:
We will also promote to make customer reassure that he/she has made right decision to
buy our product. We might use several blends of the promotional mix while creating my
promotional strategies like direct selling, advertising, sales promotion etc.

Advertising:
Through advertising we will try to deliver our most persuasive possible selling message
to the right audience at minimal cost we can have.
PROMOTIONAL MIX

47
PROMOTION MIX

Promotional Mix will be based on these elements as discussed under:

Word Of Mouth: It is a personal communication about product between target buyers


and neighbors, friends, family members and associates. It is a very effective strategy in
which we plan to use word of mouth to introduce our product and also the benefits of our
product to the customers.

Advertising: We will use advertising to communicate our product into the market
through "prime media": i.e. television, newspapers, magazines, billboard posters, radio,
etc. Our advertising would be intended to persuade and to inform.

Direct Marketing: Through direct marketing we shall create direct relationship between
us and our customers.

Personal Selling: We will also use personal selling technique to make our product sell.
For that we will hire people on commission who will communicate with people and try to
manage sale of our product.

Sales Promotion: We will offer certain incentives to our customers to increase the sales
volume of our business such as coupons, extra quantity etc.

48
RISK ASSESSMENT

Green Land Manufacturers although free from any direct competition, has a very low
barrier to entry. But there are certain risks which can affect the overall value of a
business. In order to ensure that a current business owner receives the best value for
their company, it is important to take certain steps to avoid sale delays, obtain the
necessary resources to help the sales process along and retain the help of knowledgeable
professionals in areas where they are needed.

Financial Risk

Risk which affects the overall value of a business with regard to the sale thereof has a
lot to do with the lack of resources. Unlike corporate counterparts, smaller business
owners do not have attorneys, accountants and financial advisors at the back and call
who can aid them in the sale of the business.

Competitors: Possible Competitors are global leaders so they have more technology as
compared to us.

Management Team Conflicts: There may be conflicts due to so many people in the
management.

People Risk: In the future may be the trend and demand of the consumer changes.

Technological Risk: This is the era of rapidly advancements in the technology as the
technology is being getting cheap and cheap day by day it is possible that in future we
might have number of competitors.

CONTINGENCY PLAN

Green Land Manufacturers will need to rely on its quality of service and being
first in the market to protect its market share. For this we do extra ordinary promotional
efforts to make consumers aware of our product, to create a positive image of our
product and to have maximum of loyal customers
Continuous efforts to research trends to meet consumer demands.
To get an edge over competitors we differentiated, bring variation in products.

So we must be prepared in a nice, attractive package in order to have the best positive
value. A company which is under great management sees good profits on the market
and is a good purchase opportunity overall will yield the best selling price.

changing its shape. As above it is mentioned that joint venture is an exit strategy in case
of that our insurance company will pay full banks loan.
Finance
As our finical plan shows that our sales forecasting and our Owners Equity is a backup
of us in case of any crisis.
Employees
We signed a contract with our employees of 6 months. So in case of any serious
conditions we can fire any employee our employees.

Appendix
MARKETING PLAN APPENDIX
Our Advertising campaign will pass through five stages

STAGE 1: SETTING THE ADVERTISING OBJECTIVES


We would have specific objectives regarding our advertising campaign which we would
feel the need of the time at the time we shall start our advertising. Our advertising
objectives will fall into three main categories:

TO INFORM e.g. to tell customer about my product and its features.


TO PERSUADE e.g. to encourage the customers to switch to a different andbetter
brand.
TO REMIND e.g. to remind the buyers that where they can find my product in the
market.

STAGE 2: SETTING THE ADVERTISING BUDGET


As we are launching a new product in the market, thats why, in start we would need
heavy investment on the advertisement because we first will have to create an image in
the minds of our potential customers. We not consider advertisement as our expense but
investment. For such a heavy investment we would also need heavy budget. We would
set our budget and would make required calculations before starting the advertisement
campaign and will conduct feasibility study.
When in the future we would be launching new product lines then our advertisement
budget would not be much heavy because at that time our image would have been created
in the minds of our potential customers and they would just welcome my product. We
would have to just inform them at that level that we have enhanced our product line.
Advertisement for that will not have heavy budget. But we will also calculate it before
time.
It would be really difficult for us to judge before time that how much expenses we would
have on the advertising campaign. For that, we shall use a rule-of-thumb"

61
(e.g. advertising/sales ratio) as a guide to set the budget. Means we shall estimate our
sales or would see sales of previous years and would spend on advertisement with respect
of the sales volume of particular product.

STAGE 3: DETERMINING THE KEY ADVERTISING MESSAGES


We believe that blindly spending on advertising do not guarantee success.
More important is your advertising message that your aim is to deliver to the customer.
Advertising must be done in a manner that your target customers must be addressed and
for that no heavy advertisement is required as such. We would also focus on carefully
designed message and not on such spending over. Our advertising message would have
the following characteristics:
MEANINGFULL: Our advertising message would be meaningful and customer
would feel it to be relevant.
DISTICTIVE: It would be designed in a manner that can attract the customers or
minimum can get their attention.
BELIEVABLE: Our advertising message would seem to be believable and not such
that customer feels just impossible to be. It is really a difficult and challenging job to
create such an advertising message but we have worked hard on it and would manage it.

STAGE 4: DECIDING WHICH ADVERTISING MEDIA TO USE


There are the varieties of advertisement Medias from which we can make
selection. But we would use such a media or media mix which would be more
appropriate for advertisement of our specific product. We would see the key factors while
choosing advertising media include:
RESEARCH: We would do research that what proportion of our target customers will
be exposed to our advertising message.
FREQUENCY: Research will also tell us about the frequency or number of times our
target customers will be exposed to my advertising message?
MEDIA IMPACT: We would also see that which media would be appropriate for our
product to be advertised which would have much impact on the customer. For example,

62
television ads or billboards or newspaper ads, which would be better for advertising our
product that will have more impact?
We would probably use the following medias for my advertising whichever we would
feel the need of time and my product to be advertised:
Television
Radio
Billboards
Transport
Direct mailing
Mail Promotion
Which Media we will use in the Start
We will use the strongest media of NEWSPAPER and CABLE in start of our business
and launching the product as the newspaper is read by most of people in our community
and cable is now days very common in the homes and shops of the customer. Thats why
I have selected such a media and it will help the customer to be familiar with our product

STAGE 5: EVALATING THE RESULTS OF THE ADVERTISING


We would also evaluate our advertising campaign on the routine basis and it will focus
on two key areas:

COMMUNICATION EFFECT: We would see whether the intended message is being


communicated effectively and to the intended audience?
SALES EFFECT: We would also see whether our campaign has generated the
intended sales growth. This area is much more difficult to measure but would be
beneficial for us to measure.

BUDGET FOR MARKETING MIX::
We will use percentage to sale method to set our promotion mix budget which percentage
would be changed according to our share in the market.
