I. Product\Service Design
Profood International Incorporated is known to be the leading
of various dried fruit particularly mangoes. They use one
particular variety of mangoes which is the carabao mango and
produce juice, purees and preserves. Coconut, pineapple,
banana, guava, papaya, guyabano and tamarind are some of
fruits they process and variety of products that customers can
choose of. Profood International Incorporated also customized
products which they are not the one who manufacture but only
repacked for exports. Its packagingg depends on customer’s
specification. Tampico juice is one of the products they repacked.
The product formation of their main product which is the dried
mango is simple. From raw materials, they process it following to
the sequence and do not need bother parts to form final product. For
customers who are fond of eating dried mangoes, these products
are high in vitamin C and mangoes are full packed with minerals
and anti-oxidants. It is a mineral packed chemical free food that
has amazing benefits for the health.

II. Facility Layout

Profood International Incorporated is process-oriented facility
layout. Profood produce high volumes of the products so that
facilities are organized according to the sequence of the
production. The process must not be interchange as the
machinery and materials are placed following the product path.

III. Process Strategy

 Profood International Incorporated produce high volumes of
the products especially when peak season of mangoes as well as the
increase of demands. Profood uses continuous production system
which is mass production in specific. The main process of dried
mangoes are fresh fruit receiving ripening, washing, peeling,
slicing, pasteurization, drying, coating and packing. Washing,
pasteurization and drying are fully automated, the rest are
manually done. For export products, Profood uses mass
customization in which standardized goods incorporate some
degree of customization.

IV. Location Strategy

The company's main headquarters and processing plant,
strategically located in the central region of the Philippines,
specifically in Mandaue City,Cebu. Its central location proves to
be an advantage over other processed-fruit exporters. This gives
Profood easy access to a continuous supply of premium-quality
fruits from any part of the Philippines. The Plant site is just a few
minutes away from the seaports and international airport in
Cebu.

V. Human Resource and Job Design

Workers in Profood are regular and they also have contractual

who are from different agency. During the peak season Profoods
has 5000 to 8000 both non- contractual and contractual
employees and when depression period occurs the company has
3000 to 5000 total employees. After the contract of the workers
they can transfer to the other production area as long as they know the
work. Since peeling and slicing is manual, workers need to have
skills such as speed and agility to be more productive. To be
qualified workers, it must be a high school graduate and willing
 to be trained. They focused on job specialization because every
worker has their own job assigned.
