Lindo Enterprises is one of the small-scale industries which has established and positioned their product in the market. They are in the business of processing raw seafood into a packed-snacks. Their financial data had shown an increasing sales and profit year after year since 1998. However, they are faced with a challenge of maintaining their competitive advantage and market position through a sustainable 10% annual growth rate for the next five years. Achieving this target would require the considerations and a careful study of the major threat or problems that the business is, and is going to face. Competition is on the top list, distribution of the product both locally and internationally through export-consolidators considering the quality standard, the increasing worldwide trend towards health consciousness which negates the consumption of processed snack foods and the stricter health and sanitary requirements on the import goods of the export markets are the major threat that must be resolved or given action.
The analyst had come up with the recommended plan of action that could counter strike the above mentioned threats or problems. A strong campaign for marketing strategies to promote the product and gain the competitive advantage, a nationwide distribution of the product must be targeted, a continuous innovation of the product focusing on its quality and standards that could surpass the export requirements and of course considering to go with the direct exporting which will require additional cost and risk but would guarantee a sure return and the health and sanitary requirements that must be devotedly met and complied. With this plan of actions and with optimization of its own strength and strategies, Lindo Enterprises will continue to maintain its position in the market and met its annual target growth rate in the next five years.
