Environment Analysis 3.1 SWOT Table 1: SWOT Strengths Weaknesses It is a subsidiary of a huge Kinh Do The pricing will be higher than firm and is heavily invested in a competitors because the variety of fields target market is middle-class Celano is well-known, especially people among young people There is currently no factory in Kido Company dominates the ice the Central region cream market, particularly with Customers have not been Celano as the premium ice cream drawn in by the design of the market leader ice cream cabinet or the ice To accommodate a variety of cream products needs, we provide a wide range of Celano still has not taken tastes in a variety of packaging advantage of amusement options parks, which are popular with There are numerous new and teenagers distinctive ice cream flavors The packaging is primarily constructed of nonenvironmentally friendly nylon Opportunities Threats 0 According to emotions, ice cream When more ice cream brands is the most popular FMCG item are served at the shop, the becomes more The hot climate in Vietnam market provides a tremendous competitive opportunity for the business to grow ice cream Health issues are more concerned, especially after the The novelty of the product piques epidemic people's interest People tend to save money on The young population represents a eating out and recreation as a of the epidemic's large potential consumer base for result the fast food and ice cream influence industries Consumers' desire for highquality goods at a reasonable price is growing by the day (Source: KIDO, 2021) 3.2 Macro - Environment Analysis  Economics: The economies of other countries decreased deeply due to the negative impact of the Covid-19 epidemic, but Vietnam still maintained growth with an estimated GDP growth rate of 2.91% The standard of living increases, the budget used for spending also increases, so consumers are willing to spend more in life (GSO, 2021)  Politics - law: - The stable political situation is decisive in economic development, creating jobs, increasing incomes for Vietnamese workers, and increasing social consumption needs - Legal constraints on the frozen ice cream industry are mainly related to food safety and consumer protection These are also issues that KIDO Foods has focused on for many years and considers a long-term strategy ❖ Culture - society: Currently, the lifestyle is improving, the needs of people are increasing, consumers are interested in standards of quality, food hygiene and safety The customer's travel and entertainment preferences are a remarkable point 0 former Celano packaging, with two options: the same one flavor or a random mix of two flavors/pack For a paper box: There are two types:  A small package will contain three Pop-cream flavors: the same flavor or all three flavors/box, with two sticks attached to the lid  A large package contains Pop-creamice cream flavors in two options: the same flavor or all three random flavors/box, with two sticks attached to the lid - The top of each package displays the product name, taste, nutritional information about the ingredients in the ice cream, and extensive and clear suggestions for product identification and selection - The color of the packaging will relate to the cream flavor, for example, banana ice cream will have yellow packaging - We will produce our own special package designs for Tet, Valentine's Day, and Christmas, such as gift boxes or ice cream bouquets, for consumers to purchase as gifts for their relatives or friends 6.2 Pricing strategy - With the desire to bring joy and value to health and nutrition, as well as understand the psychology of customers who want to receive products with value corresponding to their costs, we set prices for the product line Our premium Pop-cream products have a high price tag that matches the quality of the ingredients we make into the finished product, but with this product we set a relatively affordable price tag compared to our competitors - We will be using a market penetration and product quality pricing strategy for this Pop-cream line, due to the intense market volatility caused by the Covid-19 pandemic, the market is very sensitive price sensitivities and products launched on the market with reasonable prices will attract consumers Table 2: Selling price per unit of product in distribution channels (VND) 0 Product name Celano Popcream Type Bag Paper box - Quantity Selling price/unit Price/ carton box tablet/bag 17.000 179.000/ carton/ 12 bag tablets/bag 32.000 339.000/ carton/ 12 bag tablets/box 46.000 329.000/ carton/ boxes tablets/box 75.000 539.000/ carton/ product boxes Capturing the mind of the Vietnamese consumer philosophy is that price goes hand in hand with quality, we use a psychological pricing strategy, balancing price with product quality 6.3 Distribution strategy - The group always pays attention to how customers buy products and where customers will receive the products that the group provides to serve and take good care of customers - Having approached more than 120,000 retail points across the country, because this is an ice cream product that is inherently a fast-moving and fast-moving consumer product in Vietnam's hot climate, KIDO Foods uses a wide distribution strategy so that customers can buy products anywhere without worrying about affecting the quality - Especially the "Celano Pop-cream" ice cream product, when launched, was aimed at people with a preference for traveling, so we put more separate ice cream cabinets at amusement parks, eco-tourism areas to attract customers - With the goal of "Spreading passion" not only in places like ecotourism areas, but KIDO Foods wants to increase sales of products, it must connect more retail, grocery, and 10 0 convenience stores supermarkets or supermarkets across the country with the aim of quickly reaching customers, thereby maximizing profits for businesses 6.4 Marketing communications strategy ❖ Advertising - Post articles announcing the arrival of “Celano Pop-cream” on social media platforms such as Facebook, Youtube, and the company's official website - Run ads to promote products on social networking sites such as Instagram, Facebook, and outdoor ads such as posters, billboards on buses, bus shelters, taxis, - Post videos, clips, and images of Celano Pop-cream products along with offers when buying new products through social networking platforms and on company websites - For entertainment and tourist destinations, we print posters about products at the point of sale, increasing purchase stimulation ❖ Promotion - Organize events, programs to match winning stamps, and giveaways on Facebook pages - For customers who check-in with the product “Celano Popcream” with an invoice of over 99.000 at the point of sale, they will be given product of the same price of different types - Using the bundled promotion, for bills over 179.000, you will be given a thermos bag to store ice cream - For holidays, Tet, can enjoy a discount depending on each bill, such as buying a combo of ice cream boxes will get you 10% off, or buying boxes of ice creams will get you Pop-cream free of any flavor ❖ Public Relations - Press release about the product with ingredient information and product packaging design - Invite KOL to participate in outings and travel to create product review clips called “Celano Pop-cream” when used at entertainment spots in the most authentic and vivid way 11 0 - Combined with tourist attractions, amusement parks set up game counters to accumulate vouchers and gifts such as Popcream products - Sponsor music, sports, etc programs for young people ❖ Personal selling - Coordinate with staff at retail points in introducing and advertising Celano Pop-cream products as well as surveying customers' reactions to products - During the first month of the product's launch, the company will send experienced employees to supermarkets or large amusement parks to directly introduce and promote the product Marketing research KIDO Foods has placed ice cream product lines in many large and small distribution channels such as supermarkets, retailers or at famous tourist destinations where many customers visit There are KOLs who go to tourist destinations that “Celano Pop-cream” has segmented, they can use the product and recommend it to everyone Extensive product recommendations by many people have provided KIDO Foods with valuable product feedback and can use research studies, the company can measure and analyze perceptions of brand awareness in the minds of consumers and their attitudes toward competitors' products By clearly understanding the needs and expectations of customers and the market in the industry, KIDO will better determine the quality values for new products and benefit the young market segment -
