...Bargaining Power of Suppliers | | 1. Supplier concentration | According to Tim Roache of the DPI Agribusiness Group, over 50% of the country’s land mass is classified as agricultural land. Agricultural production is undertaken by small landholders who either lease or own their lands or companies with vast agricultural estates. Due to rapid population growth and escalating commodity prices, increasing food self-sufficiency is a major concern. Similarly, food produced from large agricultural estates results in the Philippines being a major producer of sugar, rice, corn, tropical fruits, poultry, and pork. Manufacturing and agriculture comprise more than half (65%) of the country’s economy, and the agrifood sector employs over one-third of the population.

Fox had huge success with the store and the brothers were reluctant at first to begin a national franchise system, but soon realized that too many copycats were creeping up and they needed an advantage and a head start. Ray Croc joined the team as the exclusive franchise agent in the United States.

...EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) is the parent company of Jollibee, a fast-food restaurant chain based in the Philippines. Among JFC's popular brands are Jollibee, Chowking, Greenwich, Red Ribbon, Manong Pepe's and its recently acquired local fast-food Mang Inasal. Since its inception, Jollibee has become an increasingly profitable fast-food chain with 1,921 (Jollibee 702, Chowking 406, Greenwich 221, Red Ribbon 215, Delifrance 23, Mang Inasal, Manong Pepe 15) store branches in the Philippines and 395 in other countries employing 29,216 workers. Including all its brands, JFC has 1,804 stores worldwide and total sales of more than Php 52 billion as of December 2010. Despite owning 52% of the total local Quick Service Restaurants, the competition with its rival firms is still stiff. The source of rivalry stems from price wars and marketing innovations. The rivalry is also centered on the KSFs (Key Success Factors) of the industry, which are good food, good service and reasonable pricing. Rivals are somewhat equal in capabilities and opportunities, thus making the competition stiffer. Moreover, standardization of service contributes to the intensity of rivalry. INTRODUCTION Fast food, also known as Quick Service Restaurant (QSR) is the term given to food that can be prepared and served very quickly. While any meal with low preparation time can be considered to be fast food, typically the term refers to food sold in a restaurant or store with...

Industry Data and Analysis ( USE Porter’s 5 forces) Fast food or quick service restaurants have come a long way since 1921 when White Castle, the first fast food hamburger chain, sold burgers at five cents apiece and ended its first day with a US$3.75 profit. Arguably, A&W was the first fast food restaurant having sold the first frosty mug of A&W root beer for one nickel in 1919. In the Philippines, Tropical Hut Hamburger is reputedly the first hamburger chain dating back to 1965. After almost 90 years from the sale of the first hamburger and root beer, the global fast food market has grown to over US$201 billion in total revenues in 2009, with growth of 3.1 percent, according to Datamonitor. On the local front, total family expenditure for food consumed outside the home reachedPhP196 billion, accounting for six percent of the...

...the early 20th century, the fast food industry has become very powerful and influential in America. So much so, that it has been able to shape the American government in many ways that fit its central goal of gaining as much profit as possible. As Eric Schlossen demonstrates in his book, Fast Food Nation, the fast food industry has done this through a variety of techniques and have succeeded in changing many laws. It also has secured subsidies and tax breaks from American citizens. Most of what the fast food industry has done to change the American government has not been to the advantage of the general American public, but rather solely for their own selfish advantages. At the beginning of the fast food boom in America, our government was not concerned with helping the fast food industry grow, but they sure did help provide a golden opportunity for the the fast food industry to flourish. With the rising popularity of the automobile came our nation's need for speed, and with that came our need for speedy fast food. When congress passed the Interstate Highway Act in 1956, “the fast food industry took route,” and since this was taking place during a period when “the inflation-adjusted value of the minimum wage [began to be] declined by over 40 percent,” the fast food industry was able to take much control over the American public (Shlossen pg. 8). McDonald fast food restaurant entrepreneur, Ray Kroc, has long been the king of the fast food industry, and has used many techniques...

...purchase from establishments that sell cooked food. A fastfood follows a standard time, from taking the orders of the customers until the food has been served. People have always enjoyed eating good food and it has become a challenge for fastfood chains to come up with menus that will provide food which will be appreciated by their targeted consumers. Fastfood differs from a restaurant in terms of service and food. When ordering food from a fastfood establishment, an individual has to fall in line at a counter to order, which is the beginning of the process. On the other hand, when diners go to a restaurant, they are seated and a server is present to take the order of the customer. In terms of food, fastfood offers food which doesn’t usually take a lot of time to prepare and is significantly of lower cost compared to the food served in a restaurant. According to the review of “Food Service Industry in the Philippines” (2010), fastfoods requires more than just good food. Though important, good food is only a part of the total dining experience. Equally important is believed to be the way people feel while in the restaurant. This physical and emotional response is a result of the atmosphere, the total environment to which customers are exposed which otherwise can also be called the ambiance. The proper atmosphere can make the food, service and whole dining experience better. For that reason a restaurant or a fast food must take care of the following to please its...
