...Organization a.) Company Background Jollibee Foods Corporation (also called JFC, and popularly known as Jollibee) is a Filipino multinational chain of fast food restaurants headquartered in Pasig. JFC is the owner of the popular fast food brand Jollibee, dubbed as Asia's answer to McDonald's in the fast food burger business. Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) was incorporated on January 11, 1978. JFC's principal business is the development, operation, and franchising of quick-service restaurants under the trade name "Jollibee". Jollibee was founded by Tony Tan Caktiong and his family. At the age of 22, inspired by a visit to an ice cream plant, he set out to gain his own foothold in the restaurant business: relying on family savings, he seized a franchising opportunity with Magnolia Dairy Ice Cream and opened two ice cream parlors. In response to customer requests, he added hot meals and sandwiches to the menu, which soon proved a lot more popular than ice cream. Three years later, in 1978, he decided to capitalize on this development, discontinued the Magnolia franchise and converted his parlors into fast food outlets. Realizing that he needed a brand name and logo for his new business, Mr. Caktiong and his family decided on using a smiling red bee. They chose a bee because of its association with hard work, and because honey represents the sweet things in life. The “jolly” prefix was intended to connote happiness and enjoyment. Jollibee invested millions of pesos to register...

...Jollibee Foods Corporation Company Background Jollibee is one of leading food company in the Philippines and is ranked among one of the Asia’s top food company. It has a largest market of fast food in its home country and it has four different concepts of fast foods under different brand identities but controlled by Jollibee Stores. Having a wide market all over Asia, the growth of Jollibee is not large enough and mostly its growth in China is due to their purchase of Yonghe King Chain. Whenever we discuss about fast food restaurants, the first name which comes in our mind is of McDonalds which has the world’s largest chain of fast food restaurant. But, this is not the case in the Philippines where Jollibee has been the name for fast food for more than two decades. Jollibee doesn’t have a popular global name but in its home town it has four popular brands named- Jollibee, Delifrance, Greenwich Pizza and Chowking. In 1990’s JFC wanted to expand internationally by opening some of their stores in Asia and Middle East. The company’s chairman and CEO Tony Tan Caktiong wanted JFC to grow internationally and also improving its quality and growth in their domestic country and having goals of profitability, growth, capturing a large international market share and help developing their home country.

...Case 3: JOLLIBEE FOODS CORPORATION Student’s Name Professor’s Name Date Question 1 Jollibee’s effective policy, backed by economic and political activities in the country, allowed the company to build its leading position in the Philippines’ fast-food industry. Its “Five Fs” viewpoint (friendliness, a fun atmosphere, flavorful food, flexibility in outfitting to customer desires, and a focus on families) recapitulates its strength over its competitors. McDonald’s company had more money and vastly developed systems, but Jollibee was capable to compete head to head by taking advantage of its most important competitive advantage: Philippine customers preferred Jollibee’s hamburger taste by a wide margin. Takeing on a frontal attack strategy, Jollibee reacted to the impressive operation of Big Mac, Mc Donald’s biggest and best-known sandwich, by launching an even larger burger of its own, referred to as the Champ (Bartlett, Ghoshal, & Birkinshaw, 2003). Jollibee was able to seizure the economic and political disaster in the year 1983 to its advantage. While McDonald’s cut down its investments in the the Philippines, Jollibee profited from the Filipinos’ enthusiastic display of national pride. The company not allowing fortune to sit on its lap, it took full advantage of the opportunity to expand its market by proliferating its core menu with taste-tested provisions of chicken, spaghetti, and a exceptional peach-mango dessert pie, all...

ANALYSIS OF THE COMPANY’S STRATEGIES and MANAGEMENT 4 a. The Financial Statistics 4 b. The Problems and Challenges 5 3. EVALUATION & CONCLUSION 8 WORKS CITED 10 1. INTRODUCTION Jollibee Food Company was established after the oil crisis hit the ice-cream prices since the family company was mainly based on ice-cream production and sales. After Jollibee, one member of the family, decided to diversify into sandwiches; the product started to gain popularity. “The Tans’ hamburger, made to a home-style Philippine recipe developed by Tony’s chef father, quickly became a customer favorite. A year later, with five stores in metropolitan Manila, the family incorporated as Jollibee Foods Corporation.” (Bartlett, 2001) The rapid increase in the number of stores after such a short period indicated how successful Jollibee’s decision has been. In three years, the number stores were doubled and Jollibee had 11 stores. However, together with this success, the problems also started to arise. The entrance of McDonalds into Philippines market was one of the main problems that Jollibee had to deal with.

...JOLLIBEE FOODS CORPORATION: INTERNATIONAL EXPANSION ------------------------------------------------- By Group 4 CASE BACKGROUND Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) is the most successful fast food chain in the Philippines. It started out as an ice cream parlor owned by the Tan family, headed by Tony Tan Caktiong (TTC) as President. Brought about by oil crisis which doubled the price of ice cream, JFC diversified into hamburgers in the year 1977. Jollibee’s philosophy is epitomized by “Five Fs” – Friendliness, Flavorful food, Fun atmosphere, Flexibility in serving customer needs, and Focus on families. Though it began as a family business, eventually, it went public in 1993. JFC expanded its business through acquisition of other food chains but Jollibee stores remained the bread and butter of the parent company, contributing 85% of total revenues. Jollibee had grown quickly having a total of 223 stores worldwide by the end of year 1997. Jollibee ventured into overseas expansion attempts since 1985 but were mostly unsuccessful due to location and partner issues. In 1993, TTC hired an Australian national Tony Kitchner (who was the former VP for International Operations in Pizza Hut for 14 years), to lead JFC International Division in order to push its international presence at full throttle. Tony Kitchner initiated many drastic changes in the division from modifying office design and dress code to pushing aggressive expansion strategies and rebranding Jollibee’s image offshore...
