...Monica A. Tran, 16478025 Section 1, February 3, 2005 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Jollibee was able to attain a competitive advantage over McDonald’s by doing two things: (1) Retaining tight control over operations management, which allowed it to price below its competitor and (2) Having the flexibility to cater to the tastes of its local consumers. While Tony Kitchner was hired to develop these competitive advantages abroad, his international strategy of “planting the flag” and “targeting expats” was executed haphazardly and resulted in losses for the firm. His eventual dismissal was largely due to his inability to manage intra-firm tensions. The arrival of Noli Tingzon marks a critical juncture for Jollibee, where it will begin entering the US market. The key to Jollibee’s success in Daly City will be its ability to find a local partner that can leverage its organizational advantage, while navigating the challenges of conducting business in the United States. I. Creating Competitive Advantages in the Filipino market Jollibee’s success in its home market developed as a result of its ability to better meet the needs of the Filipino customer. Although its success was mediated by the political and economic crises of 1983, Jollibee was still able to deliver a product that was both cheaper and better tasting than that of McDonald’s. The ability of Jollibee to adopt its menu to local tastes, as well as the “5 Fs” of its operations management are two organizational...

JFC has developed its international business over three distinct strategies. Its corporate strategy is one of related diversification into the fast food, restaurant and bakery sectors of the food industry. Its international business strategy focuses on establishing market share by acquisition, joint venture and franchising, often by initially targeting high Filipino population centres, and also in differentiation by localizing their menus to suit various cultural tastes in all their overseas markets (Jollibee 2009a). JFC has successfully adopted a transnational strategy being able to combine the benefits of global scale efficiencies in its regional management business model with the benefits of local responsiveness by adapting for local tastes. It depends on an integrated network and teamwork to drive the needs of the marketplace and the need to be competitive (Jollibee 2008)...

...BUSINESS FRANCHISING Top International Franchises Top National Franchises Submitted by: GERARD ANDREI B. DEINLA BSBA MARKETING MANAGEMENT Submitted to: DR. EDITH S. BUNUAN PROFESSOR IN BUSINESS FRANCHISING Top 10 International Franchises of 2014 The results of Entrepreneur's 35th annual Franchise 500 confirm that franchising continues to rebound, with these top 10 franchises leading the way. Here we highlight their success strategies and plans for the upcoming year. 1 Anytime Fitness Some 50.2 million Americans belonged to health clubs in 2012, according to the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association. Today, about 1.9 million are Anytime Fitness members--a huge piece of the pie that's getting bigger every year. And it's safe to say that the 24-hour gym's clients, employees and franchisees are among the most enthusiastic people in the fitness industry. That's because the roughly 2,500 anytime clubs focus on people and culture. The company carefully selects its employees and treats them well, committed to the idea that a workplace should develop and challenge, not be stagnant or boring. Clients, meanwhile, appreciate the convenience of 24-hour accessibility to the small gyms--typically 2,500 to 5,000 square feet--whose staff and personal trainers take an interest and encourage them to push themselves. 2 Hampton Hotels Consider Hampton the U.S. ambassador of the hotel business.

...fast food chain in Vietnam Fast food culture was initially imported to Vietnam in 1994 with the birth of the first restaurant named Chicken Texas on Nguyen Trai Street, District 1, Saigon. Gradually, a queue of foreign fast food jumbos have landed onto Vietnam and dominated the market with the everyday-seen names like KFC, Lotteria, Jollibee…They have helped shape up fast food culture with western style in the country that has been globally emerging at an amazing speed . A critical question is then raised that why we do not have pure Vietnamese fast food mode for Vietnamese people. Later, some Vietnamese brand names were with great effort introduced like Pho 24, Kinh Do Bakery, Wrap and Roll… However, insiders do not consider these names typical fast food vein. Mr. Truong Han Lam, Marketing Director of Lotteria commented that Kinh Do Bakery business was not a fast food model. Mr. Ly Qui Trung –Founder of Pho 24- added that the existing Vietnamese names were following a quick service mode, not fast food form. Owner of Wrap and Roll, Ms Kim Oanh, admitted that hers was a restaurant form, not fast food (”KFC, Lotteria, Jollibee,” 2012). In order to answer the question if there are any real Vietnamese fast food models, a definition of fast food needs being made clear. According to Oxford dictionary, fast food is an “easily prepared processed food served in snack bars and restaurants as a quick meal or to be taken away” (Fast food, 2013).
