Target Market of ChocoChill
The target market of ChocoChill is
o Lower middle class
o Middle Class
o Upper Middle
o Upper Class
Size and scope of Market
As there is day by day the Chocolate industry is growing so in order to launch
ChocoChill we had survey the market and analyze that there is a big target market
available for ChocoChill products and it is feasible. Children and as well as the other
young generation people are most likely to eat the chocolate so as here in the Pakistan we
have sixty percent young people and it shows the Scope of the our products.

5
Growth in the Market

According to the current situation in the following target market we had estimate the
growth of the ChocoChill.
 Children in the Schools (10%)
 Young in the Colleges (8%)
 Students of the Universities (5%)

Market Attractiveness
There is big market here in the Pakistan and specially in Rawalpindi Islamabad market
and because of this we will be launching our product. A great opportunity is available in
the market.

Situational Analysis

According to the current market situation of the Chocolate Market there is an opportunity
to enter and grow in the market. Initially ChocoChill is considering and targeting its
market within the country then after this it operates globally. Therefore its basic market is
Pakistan.
For the market attractiveness we have used the Porter five forces model.

6
According to the Michael Porter model there are five forces that show the industry
analysis of a firm.
These factors are
 Rivals
 Threat of substitutes
 Buyer Power
 Supplier Power
 Barriers to entry

1. Rivals
First of all the rivals of the ChocoChill are to be considered. These are mainly dairy Milk,
Kit Kat, Mars, Wafer, and Paradise Chocolate. So there is a competition in the market but
opportunity for ChocoChill is still there because after our survey it is to be noted that
many customers are dissatisfied from the rivals because of many reasons e.g. quality and
distribution also the price. Another thing is the relation with the customer is also a rival
edge for the ChocoChill. Also using product differentiation we make a differentiation for
creating our potential customers and getting the market share.

7
2. Threat of substitutes
Substitute products and brands are also a threat for the ChocoChill.For achieving our
target market we has noted the wants and demands of the Chocolate customers and
launch products according to the customer requirement. But here is a threat of substitute
in the chocolate market but we have contingency plans to overcome this. We will use
Market intelligence for this purpose.
3. Buyer Power
As in the current market the ChocoChill products are segmented so the buyer power is
according to the specific segment. For example if we want to sell our customer our milky
product then according to its segment we will set the price and that determines the buyer
power. In this study the behavior of the buyer is also involved and there are several
important things which comes in the mind of the customer. What is the bargaining power
of the buyers and how much they are price sensitive and how they can differentiate the
products in other words the knowledge about the specific product. Also the substitute of

the product available and how they are motivated to brand loyalty through incentives.
Therefore by considering these facts ChocoChill is defined to be the cheap and reliable
for the buyers and easily available everywhere. Because for some buyers price matters
and for some buyers the quality matters. If we use integrated marketing then we easily
capture our target market.

4. Supplier Power
According to the Porter forces model the supplier power depends upon the supplier
commitment through the raw material. If the supplier is committed with the raw material
and availability is as per the requirement so the supplier power is strong and it also be
cost effective supply as compared to the competitors. It also shows the supplier
concentration on the supply of specific raw material for a product. Here also arise the
threat of cost integration.ChocoChill has its own dairy forms from where the milk is to

8
taken and then other ingredients are to be purchased from the local suppliers at a
reasonable price.

5. Barriers to entry
In the chocolate industry there are some barriers to enter like you have to take the
registration number from the ministry of food for your business but there are no such
barriers for exit in the Pakistan. So according to the current situation and barriers the
company is registered and it will be operating along with its competators.Here the cost
concept is very important that the company has its own dairy form and there are two
benefits of it. First is that the company is using fresh milk as it is the important part of the
Choco at the lowest cost with its compitators.On the other hands there is authenticated
fresh milk is also good for fresh chocolates. So these both points are the competitive edge
for the ChocoChill.
PEST Analysis

9
Now we have to analyze the PEST. These are Political,Economical,Social,technology
environments by which the company will operate.
Political Environment
As for as the ChocoChill is concerned the political environment is good here in the
Pakistan as well as globally. Because if the country will not be politically sustainable
then the business transactions will not be happen regularly. We have our own
distribution channels which are trucks and also mini trucks for the distribution of
ChocoChill Products. By considering all the factors that influence the political situation
are not harmful for our ChocoChill product.

Economical Environment
ChocoChill products are very economical for the customers. As we are providing
segmented products so it is very easy to increase the market share. Due to segmentation
an upper class customer and also a lower class customer easily fulfill its satisfaction.
Hence the ChocoChill products are economically suitable.
Social Environment
Our Societal goal is Contribution in Greener and cleaner environment .ChocoChill in a
Social Environment is best and will perform social achievements according to its goals.
So there is no other issue in the social environment regarding this.
Technological Environment
Technology is very important for the cost effectiveness of a company also the advertising
and selling of the company.ChocoChill has its own dairy forms. Also the machines for
Making Chocolates and all the instruments which are best for production are available in
the company,and through theses the company will be getting competitive edge from its
customers.
Information Technology is also affecting the marketing. We had will launch a website

10
www.ChocoChill.com
Where the customer give orders to the company and as well the feed back about the
products and other information will be given there about the company.

Cultural Factors
Culture plays an important role for the marketing any product so we have to have launch
and market our product according to the culture of that area.
Demographics
Demographics always effect the marketing. There are several factors.
Age
ChocoChill customer are here in the Pakistan are the Children and also the young
generation. These are almost 10---28.

Income
Income is also another factor of the demographics what is the living standard of a specific
area what is the income level? As for as ChocoChill is concerned so it has segmented
products and through these we will target all the kinds of customers.

We can create awareness among our customers through many
channels .some of them are given below.
• Billboards
• News papers
• Television
• Internet

Logo:

39
Suggestions:

The following are the suggestions that will be helpful to the ChocoChill in becoming the
market leader.
• ChocoChill should have to manage the customer feedback and their relationship
department. If the customers want to give you feedback or any suggestion they
will be easily welcomed and there should be the system that if any customer gives
you productive suggestions which also meet the current marketing situation,
He/she must be awarded.
• There should be a research department which always analyze the consumer
behavior and consumer choices ad based on theses the company should launch the
new product or make developments in existing products.
• The company should offer packages and new schemes for the potential customers
as well as the current customers.
• Launch new product at right time in the right target market.
Pricing Tactics:
From the purchase of raw material to finish goods and as well as in the consumption of a
particular goods or services price is very sensitive and main point. So the seller and buyer
are both have to charge price by considering cost plus profit and the competitor as well.

Pricing according to the Customer Behavior:


Satisfaction:
If the target customers of the ChocoChill are satisfied with its products and the quality
they are providing then the price will not be a big issue. It is observed through the survey
that customers mostly cares about the quality not the price. So if we provide customer
quality then we can set a high price depending on the nature of the product and the
demand as well.
Pricing Objectives

40
There should be some pricing objectives by considering them the company will set the
prices of a specific products.
Increase Sales Volume

As the ChocoChill is a new company so the company should increase its sales volume
and capture a part of its target market. At that time the price is reasonable.
Maximize Long term profit
ChocoChill is basing on the policy that we have to increase short term profit. For this
purpose many market leaders was initially runs their firms at break even point.
Increase market share
The company should set a price where it gets the high market share at that point company
set less prices as compared to its competitors.
Retaining Customers
Company should offer a price where the customer can easily get the product. It help the
company to retain its customer. Better services is also a key point.
Cost Based Pricing

The company should use the cost based pricing to set a price.
Fixed and Variable Costs
ChocoChill is operating in a competitive environment and hence in
the production and in other transactions several costs are occurred
like purchasing raw material etc
Analyzing Competitor costs and prices
we have to be a great knowledge about the opponent cost and their costs because in a
competitive environment every company want to reduce its costs. so we have knowledge
about this. It is also a factor because by analyzing this we can set best price.
Price Method
Selling Price=Cost + Profit

41
Here we are usually choosing ten percent(10%) profit margin on cost initially. But after
sometimes by changing the prices of raw material or any change the company should
increase the prices and profit margin as well.

Different pricing tactics


Different tactics can help you attract more customers and maximize profits.

Discounting
Offering specially reduced prices can be a powerful tool. This could be a clearance
discount to sell old stock, a discount for making multiple purchases of the same or similar
products, or you could offer bulk discounts to encourage larger orders. You should be
able to make these more profitable through lower costs. we will also use discount pricing
methods as well.

Odd value pricing


Using the retailer's tactic of selling products for Rs9.99 instead of Rs10 can be useful if
price is an essential part of customers' buying decisions. Some customers perceive odd
value prices like this as being more attractive.

Loss leader
This involves selling a product at a low or even loss-making price. Although you may not
make a profit selling this product, you could attract customers who will also buy other,
more profitable products.

Skimming
If you have a unique product or service, you can sell it at a high price. This is known as
skimming but you need to be sure that what you are selling is unique. Otherwise you may

42
just price yourself out of the market if there is credible competition. As we are producing
sugar free, chocolate also so we will use this method for this product.

Penetration
This is the opposite of skimming - starting at a low price and gaining market share before
competitors catch up with you. Once you have a loyal customer base, you should be able
to find ways to raise prices later.
Pricing Issues
Pricing decisions can be a complicated undertaking that requires knowledge of the
market, competitors, and economic conditions and, of course, customers.

Sales/Distribution tactics
The company has its own convince to sell their product in the local market. But for the
wide area company has linked with a chain of distribution companies and to find a
reasonable cost for its product.
According to the current planning 60% of the total sales goes through the retail channels.
Another 25 percent will be through direct sales channels and other 15% is sell directly to
the buyer.
If the distribution and availability of the product is fine then no matter the will able to get
the big market share.And this all done through strong distribution channels.

Integrated Marketing communication Tactics


How the marketing channels are to be linked with and how the flow of information
travels throughout the marketing department. If it is good then it improves the
company performance and the efficiency.
