outbreak of the COVID-19 epidemic in 2020 and will be confirmed even more clearly in 2023 when the society has to distance strict blockade, the number of people workers have to work from home as well as gather at production facilities and factories for a long time Health, food safety, and convenience are the top concerns of households In the research of Neilsen company, Major species will grow from 25% to 32% until 2022 Besides that, sugar, salt, monosodium glutamate, broth mix,… are the most competitive goods in the market Ajinomoto is a spice company holding the second largest market share in the market and at the same time they have brought delicious flavors to each dish, contributing to improving the health and quality of life of people globally as well as in Vietnam stories stemming from our aspiration for life According to data from the scientific report of the Institute of Tropical Biology on the spice industry in Vietnam and around the world, Vietnamese people consume an average of 450,000 tons of spices per year Having been on the market for over a decade, the seasoning has become a substitute for monosodium glutamate (MSG) in many Vietnamese recipes Dominating in this market are the brands: Knorr (Unilever), Maggi (Nestlé), Aji-Ngon (Ajinomoto) and Miwon It is worth mentioning that this seasoning that changes the cooking habits of Vietnamese consumers comes from American investors 1.2 Competition Market-AJINOMOTO: Top Broth mix Brand in the market are: Knorr (50%), Aji-Ngon, Massan, Maggi Even though many competitive brands appear in the market, Aji-Ngon is still trying to be better in the strategy and more and more dominant in terms of materials and technology The proportion of MSG in seasoning makes up 30% with the advantage of being a MSG company, the price of Aji Ngon is always more competitive than Knorr's, even though Knorr's MSG price has been calculated according to the bulk purchase price of the area On the other hand, Aji Ngon also has the technology of TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat123@gmail.com moi nhat extracting bone broth and meat in place so the sweetness is higher, the cost of ingredients is, therefore, lower than Knorr when it comes to buying chicken powder to mix According to the financial report for 2021, Masan Consumer Company recorded sales of the spice industry at VND 10,028 billion, an increase of 18.4% compared to 2020 Masan Company has many developments focusing on luxury goods spices, serving the increasing demand when consumers spend a lot of time cooking at home Masan fish sauce products apply production technology to reduce salt content to improve heart health Also according to the financial report 2021, sales of Chin-Su brand account for nearly 30% of the whole spice industry The battle for market share of spice brands is not as intense as other consumer products such as shampoo, washing powder, household electrical appliances but often spectacular with advertising races but very intense and decisive paralysis Brands already in the market initiate programs to capture every possible proportion of the market, while new brands look for gaps to fill The Vietnamese spice industry has grown in less than ten years, but it has proven to be a very attractive market with plenty of room for expansion Many "giants" in the domestic and international food industry are proving this by increasing investment in this lucrative sector SWOT analysis: 2.1 SWOT analysis for the company-AJINOMOTO: Strengths: - The organization may be able to increase its customer base and balance out losses from one product category with gains from another thanks to its diverse product line - A strong online presence across a variety of social networking sites and effective social media management can boost the impact of favorable e-WOM and establish long-lasting relationships with clients - A company in good financial standing and physical shape may be able to make more investments - Having access to suppliers who provide raw materials at reduced prices can increase the effectiveness of the firm as a whole TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat123@gmail.com moi nhat - A well designed and integrated IT infrastructure may boost operational effectiveness and better understanding of current market trends - High product quality boosts customer loyalty to a brand and enhances Ajinomoto Co Inc's performance in a cutthroat industry Weaknesses: - Relying excessively on advertising may result in a budget that is insufficient for marketing and promotion operations, which affects the potential of the business to grow its clientele and bottom line Environmentalists may criticize the organization for its poor waste management procedures and inability to incorporate sustainability into commercial processes - Poor inventory management techniques could cause the business to become less efficient - Insufficient current assets or a shortfall of cash can both have a detrimental impact on the liquidity situation and the overall success of the organization Encourage repeat business; the seasonings industry has an excessively narrow focus - A workforce with low morale as a result of high workplace stress is less productive Opportunities: - The population's exponential increase, especially in the existing or future client segments, presents a significant opportunity for corporate organizations - If the corporate organization has good market information, the changing client wants, tastes, and preferences may present an opportunity - The creation of new technologies to aid in the process of producing and delivering goods and services can be taken advantage of to integrate innovation into corporate operations Integration of cutting-edge technology can lower costs, boost productivity, and hasten the release of new goods - A rise in consumer disposable income and an expansion of the wealthy clientele can be viewed as a chance to launch additional high-end products - The purchase of smaller brands 10 TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat123@gmail.com moi nhat The company will announce the top 10 results on the fanpage after days of the end of the program
