Thereby, Biti's also has policies for its loyal customers When customers make purchases on the website or at the store, they will accumulate a suitable number of points that can be redeemed for meaningful incentives and gifts.

2 The situation analysis (MKT) – swot

During 40 years of development, Biti's oriented to develop a sustainable brand withsix fundamental values: Prestige, quality, change and improvement, solidarity for development, and promotion of company development.

After more than 40 years of production and business activities with many ups and downs and challenges, now, Biti's has grown and developed along with the country, becoming a reputable, trustworthy and familiar brand with consumers useand leave pride in the minds of Vietnamese people about a "National Brand" in the field of prestigious and quality footwear.

Good quality products, affordable prices

Applying one price policy Biti's is one of the very first businesses in the country to implement a one price policy for everywhere in the domestic market.

The current Bitis Hunter brand is divided into 5 product lines for both men and women with prices ranging from 599,000 - 899,000 VND suitable for the financial capabilities of many customers With this reasonable price, Bitis Hunter seems to be gradually becoming the optimal choice of Vietnamese consumers when the prices of genuine sports shoes from foreign brands such as Nike, Adidas, Vans are low , Converse or Puma, etc on the market are all 1 million or more This is a strong point that Biti's has done very well.

Biti's products are certified for quality assurance through registration of product quality standards at the Ho Chi Minh City Quality Measurement and Standards Department for all product categories Biti's products are manufactured according to the quality management system meeting ISO 9001: 2000 standards certified by QUACERT and BVQI Consumers always trust the quality of Bitis In 2006 Bitis was one of the 200 most powerful enterprises This is a notable strength of Biti's, as Biti's is a long-standing brand with many unique achievements.

Widely distributed system

Biti's product distribution system through domestic agents and stores develops strongly in each period according to the direction set by the company, in addition, export business is also expanded.

Domestic market: comprising four commercial centres, one business centre and seven branches, 156 marketing stores and over 4,500 agents - stores throughout 64 provinces and cities in the country International market: the company has export markets in more than 40 countries around the world

Biti’s has not been proactive in sourcing raw materials

Currently, the type of products concerned needs to be diversified thein business on the basis of ensuring quality for the company's customers, Bitis has a huge demandfor raw materials and fuel However, these raw materials are still very limited

Domestic enterprises produce but cannot guarantee Bitis's requirements, so up to 60% of Bitis's input materials are imported from abroad 40% domestic use.

After many years of dominating the domestic market, due to some problems in the distribution channel, Biti's has gradually lost market share.

Due to not really focusing on development in the domestic market but only paying attention to the flow of exported goods, the quantity of goods distributed domestically has changed significantly, leading to changes in quantity as well as quality of marketing Market goods in direct marketing channels and thousands of other small distribution facilities across the country This leads to the number of stores and agents gradually shrinking, while also losing market share in the domestic market.

Furthermore, since 2010, Vietnam has officially become the largest shoe factory ofthe "giant" Adidas, with a market share of more than 40% of the company's output The same thing is happening to Nike's shoe supply chain, as Vietnam gradually takes over China's "production throne" The foreign-loving mentality along with changes in people's ideology and consumption habits also caused Bitis to gradually retreat and narrow its market share.

c) Opportunities

Vietnam is in a golden population period with a very high proportion of people belonging to generation X, generation Y and generation Z.

Through this, Biti's Hunter has the opportunity to tap into the outstanding psychology of these generations, which is "You only live once" - you only live once in your life, emphasizing the expression of personality and living with the passion of the world young generation.

Marketing Campaign

The new era of modern technology along with the psychological characteristics of today's youth - quickly accessing and updating new media culture trends - creates conditions for Biti's Hunter to easily carry out advertising campaigns Advertising approaches and supports users in personalization, personality, and product differentiation through social networking sites and Bitis's official website When using technology to interact with customers, businesses will create a positive public image.

The market is large, has lots of potential and is constantly expanding and developing:

In general, our country is doing a good job of controlling inflation Furthermore, banks' lending interest rates are kept at a level that affects people's consumption activities, including footwear products (Bitis) because interest rates are an important need for borrowers to pay for their purchases.

Supportive trade policies from the Government

The government proactively reforms administrative procedures, simplifies tax procedures, has solutions to deduct input VAT for raw material purchases, and optimizes production time and costs.

d) Threats

Consumers' demand for product quality is increasing: With Vietnamese people's living standards gradually improving, they increasingly want to use better quality products.

Confidence in Vietnamese products among consumers is not high: Especially for sports shoe products, because it is one of the first brands to seriously invest in quality and design, there is still limited in terms of diverse designs as well as unique, new and trendy designs.

Considering price and design will be a big challenge for Biti's: Starting from Bitis Hunter's competitors, which are shoe brands from China Their products meet the needs of consumers in the middle segment in terms of price and quality They are very responsive to the market and constantly change designs, with low prices suitable for average income levels.
