SWOT Analysis
After employing the services of a business consultant, we came up with a SWOT analysis for our business. Together we were able to examine the potential of the business idea after looking through our business concept together; also we were able to assess ourselves to ensure we were fledged to run a standard soap production company that will not be shut out by competitors.
Below is an assessment we deduced;
Strength
Our strength lies in our team’s excellence, the experience and hard work put into the process, and the understanding they have that makes businesses huge. Also, our strength lies in the proposed distribution network, impeccable customer feedback. Also, the relationship that we seek to establish with our distributors will help us cement our stand in the industry.
Weakness
The fact that we are a soap business and will be directing a huge chunk of our capital into production and not marketing is a weakness.
Opportunities
Opportunities are unlimited to the business itself and this is also bolstered since soaps are always needed and their importance cannot be undermined, although there are competitors in the industry but as we said we harness our strengths to help us garner the trust of consumers.
Threat
Threats are unlikely as soaps are very essential, but in the case of an economic downturn, we might be affected, although purchasing power might decline this will not amount to a total shut down in the usage of soaps.
Also one of the threats is our competitors which we will not be much of a threat once we have rallied the consumers to our side.
Another set of threats will be unfavorable government and regulatory body policies.
Our Target Market
After conducting market research we have listed a few ideas on who on what our target market would be.
- Households
- Hotels
- Restaurants
- Laundry Owners
