2. 0 Economic, social, political, legal and technological environment

2. 2 Barriers to entry

A barrier to entry is where a new business is restricted in entering the industry due increase in competition. Competitors will reduce profitability for the existing entities as a result of gaining market share.

The barriers to entry for the hospitality industry are lower compared to other industries (D. Bowie and F. Buttle 2004). Some of the barriers to entry are: the threat of new entrants, the threat of substitutes, Capital requirement, (Please refer to group appendix 5. 1)

2. 3Licences, permits, standards and compliance

As rules and regulations develop and expand they will continue to influence the hospitality industry. The standards which your business needs to comply with is the NSW Food Act 2003, which includes ensuring food is safe for sale which is suitable for human utilization, to prevent misleading conduct and to guarantee that application of the Food Standards code.

As your business is in the field of the hospitality industry you will be required by the Food Act 2003 to inform and advise the authorities of your food handling activities. If you fail to meet this requirement then a heavy penalty will be enforced.

Another important and very crucial Act that needs to be implemented and followed is the Occupational Health and Safety Act 2000. This Act is important as it ensures the safety and health of working conditions for the employees and employers; this is done by providing research, education and training in the area of occupational health and safety. (Refer to management)

2. 4 Market and industry, size of market, trends, the target market, and consumer behaviour

The following trends were found for the hospitality industry for 2003-2004 and 2006-2007.

– According to Australian Bauera of Statistics (ABS) in Australia by the end of 2004 there were 15, 083 cafe and restaurant businesses operating. Which included 13286 restaurant and cafes and 1796 catering businesses.

– Most of the cafes and restaurants were small businesses and about 63% having less than ten employees during 2003-2004 (ABS 2007).

2. 5 Market

There is a global increase in demand of fish and chips restaurants, such as rapid according to Yum 2010 increase in sales at its Pizza Hut and KFC restaurants in china (Yum 2010). U. S same restaurants the sales were up by 1%. McDonald’s corporation is also planned to have more than 2000 stores by 2013 in mainland China (Appendix 12. 5). As mentioned above the global demand for the fish and chips restaurants are increasing however in Australia there has been 0. 6% declined in trend growth in restaurant and cafes as consumers are cut back on discretionary spending and there has been an increase in sales of food in retail sector by 1. 8% as consumers are looking for ways to save, thus instate of going to restaurants or cafes they just buy food from retail stores and saves (Isobel Drake 2009).

2. 6Target Market

According to the primary research that was undertaken we came to the conclusion that the main target market for your business would be school and university students between the ages of 11-24, in saying this another age group which you would base your marketing at is business people.

We came to this conclusion that students would be highly likely to purchase fish and chips as it is a cheaper alternative and it is something quick to eat. As for business people, the research that was undertaken concluded that 45% of business people would purchase lunch on a daily basis. Also the surveys brought back a result that majority of the business people enjoyed eating fish and chips in comparison to other junk foods, in particular in the area where your business will be operating as there are numerous businesses operating there

We undertook primary research and came to the conclusion that families are another market which you should target. Families tend to want to go out together and have a nice lunch or dinner that is not too expensive and to be provided with good customer service and quality food, all of which your business can provide.

Therefore we recommend that your target market should be students, business people, and families, we recommend that as you expand your business later on that you will also expand your target market. (Please refer to group Appendix 3. 1)

3. 0Market Strategy

3. 1 Price

Price is the final figure that you will be charging your customers for the services provided. It is recommended that the price you charge your customers is a reasonable amount, because if you are overcharging them, they are inclined to go to your competitors. By providing a reasonable price to customers it will give you the opportunity to generate an attractive margin of revenue while at the same time providing value to customers.

Thus the price of the products and services that the business will provide will be based on expenses which include variable and fixed expenses and industry average price. (Please refer to appendix 6 for meal prices).

Another pricing strategy that you may want to consider in future is implementing regular discounts to encourage customers to return J J’s Fish and chips on a systematic basis. It is an imperative to

3. 2 Promotion

Promotion is one of the most important and crucial aspects of the business, it involves transferring all your ideas to your target market. It is important that your customers are informed about the products and services you will offer therefore it is extremely important that you select the correct advertising mechanisms.

Based on the research which was undertaken the most efficient and effective advertising mechanisms include

Pamphlets

Newspaper

Website

Internet social websites such as Face book

These advertising mechanisms are recommended to be used as they are affordable and easy to implement. (Please refer to appendix for advantages operations)

(http://www. entrepreneur. com/marketing/article70824. html).

3. 3 Place

Your business will operate in the suburban area of Fairfield, the location of your business can affect the amount of sales generated. Because if you choose to locate your business where the target market is minimal then it is going to be difficult to be able to sell your product and services. The amount of people passing your business is important it is crucial to consider the surroundings near the location of your business.

3. 4 Product

The product range is mainly fish and chips. There are four types of seafood which comes with chips. So the consumers can choose any types of fish they like and it comes with chips. The fish are 100% fresh as they are ordered daily and fried as it is order. Also chips are 100% fresh and they are also fried as they are ordered.

The fish and chips dish come into vary sizes. They are small meals and large fish and chips meals. There are also 3 types of sauce ranging: tomato sauce, chilli sauce and barbecue sauce. There is also the option of buying the chips by itself, which comes in small, medium and large size.

All products are 100% fresh and are supplied by local certified suppliers. The business main focus is customer satisfaction by providing fresh and tasty fish and chips with a reasonable price.

3. 5 Process

Processing refers to the way the business is set up from where the customer orders all the way through to customer delivery. The business system should be set up in a way that has high efficiency and minimum waiting time.

Having poorly designed processes can make it difficult for employees to perform well. Procedures need to be put into place to deal with activities such as

Customer complaints

Serving customers

Answering phone calls

Being productive and helpful with customers

Training employees to use equipment

By implementing these processes it will make it easier to function around the working environment. It is important to implement a procedure where you will provide customers with a quick, efficient and effective service as it is highly likely that they don’t want their time being wasted waiting. (For customer waiting time please refer to operations)

The business should have a system where frontline and staff on the background can do their job in the most efficient way and be able to communicate effectively (refer to operation).

3. 6 People:

J J’s Fish and chips will not be able to operate efficiently and effectively without good employees. Employees will need to provide good service to customers hence employees will need to be able to interact with customers. Your employees are the first who will interact with the customers and therefore it is extremely important that the employees have the skills and knowledge on how to deliver accommodating and supportive customer service.

Hence training staff member’s to be compassionate and respectful when performing their job is an imperative, as it will ensure the success of your business. If you are providing high quality food and high quality customer service it will have a positive effect on your business.

A way to improve and to generate pleasant working environment is by encouraging team work between employees and providing incentives to motivate employees to interact within business activities. It is recommended that your business will have at least 4 employees including yourself, hence facilitating the business to manage any amendments that may occur example an employee is ill and can’t attend to work.

The most significant areas staff may require training will be

Using new machinery

Communication skills

Selling techniques

Using new materials and equipment

Customer service

Using the Point of sale system (POS)

(Refer to management section for staff training)

3. 7 Physical evidence

The way your product and service appears in the market has a big impact on success of the business. People form an opinion about the business from what they observe in the first minute of interaction. The physical appearance of things such as staff presentation, image of the restaurant, presentation of the food and the environment will all impact on the success of the business. As these aspects allow customers to perceive the way your business operates and the quality that your business will offer.

J J’s Staff members will all wear a certain and unique T-Shirt that will consist of the business logo on the right hand side. This will help to identify the employees of J J’s Fish and chips as they will be neatly presented and will uphold a high level of professionalism.
