the, law With the view that Vietnam wants to make friends with all countries in the world: ❖ Egardless of social location, color, religion cooperate for mutual benefits, can not work on each other's work, settle disputes by peaceful means Consistent policy that promotes investment in hotels also promotes international tourists to Vietnam ❖ Especially in 1999, the main government has a national action plan on tourism, the beginning of tourism decree That's the underlying theory ❖ Helping develop the tourism - hotel industry ❖ The VIII Party Congress determined "Rapid development of tourism and services gradually turning our country into a center of tourism, trade and service of great caliber.in the area " ❖ However, due to the new transformation of the commodity economy, it operates under the market mechanismschool The awareness of all levels of sectors about the role of tourism in the national economy is still limited The lack of synchronization in the legal documents on the hotel business Inconsistencies in general terms such as the content of terms in the hotel business are reílected in the ordinance ❖ Tourism has led to the unhealthy business of economic sectors with the hotel business Thus, political stability and legal consistency will promote the development of the hotel industry In their business strategy, specialized managers must study carefully Because it affects the hotel business process The deep and thorough awareness of the law allows hotel businessmen to business in accordance with the law and take full advantage of legal loopholes that always beneíĩt the hotel without breaking the law 1.4/Ecologỉcal Natural environment: Located in Southeast Asia, our country has a pleasant climate, less earthquakes or tsunamis, favorable rain and wind, which is the best condition for businesses to operate in the future long 1.5/Culture - socỉal The Vietnamese community has 54 different ethnic groups, which means 54 different cultures From there, we can see that our country has a rich and diverse culture It is one of the resources (tourism resources) promoting tourism development Changes in lifestyle, psychology, ethical standards, consumption habits will have certain impacts on tourism and hotel business activities Socio-cultural factors strongly intluence hotel business Therefore, in the process of developing their business strategy, it is necessary to build a healthy cultural feature in the hotel, build a hotel design imbued with national identity Thereby creating the background of the Hotel and motivating people to come and consume the hotel's products 1.6/Technology The remarkable development of science and technology in the past few decades has led to a brilliant development of the world economy Economic development increases people's income and promotes travel demand Not only scientiííc and technological factors affect the economy and promote tourism demand, but it also affects the equipment, technical facilities in the hotel business Because travel demand is high-end demand Therefore, the equipment in the hotel business is increasingly being renewed and upgraded That innovation and upgrade requires large capital, so in the process of building a business strategy, it is necessary to carefully study which equipment to apply, when to upgrade In order for the equipment in the hotel not to be too outdated compared to the world and depending on each guest, the equipment has different levels of modernity The current state of equipment at Saigon Hotel is relatively modern to meet the needs of visitors Microenvironment 2.1 Strenghts Facilities meet 5-star standards - With the fìnest comfort equipment Systems, it may be used as an isolation íacility in case of need Dynamic and experienced staff - Highly skilled employees through training and advanced learning programs on skills in handling infections of Covid 19 Flexible business structure - Not only helps tourists relax and entertain, but also organize events, meetings and seminars Convenience services - Sheraton Saigon Hotel provides the best services to customers, creating a sense of comfort and safety 2.2 Weakness One of the biggest weaknesses is that the hotel's products only target customers who are businessmen, heads of state, politicians (high-class customers) without really paying attention to ordinary customers For a developing country like Vietnam, the number of ordinary customers accounts for a very large number The price is a little expensive compared to other hotels The payment of service fees is still limited Currently, the hotel only accepts payment by cash or other cards, while many tourists need to pay by bank transfer, but this type of service has not been put into service Service fees are higher than competitors of the same type Sheraton hotel does not organize isolation for F0 like other hotels Around the end of May, the hotel had a case of covid-19, so it had to be temporarily blocked 2.3 Opportunỉtỉes Extemal Strategic Factors * New trends in the consumer behavior can open up new market for the Sheraton It provides a great opportunity for the organization to build new revenue streams and diversiíy into new product categories too * Decreasing cost of transportation because of lower shipping prices can also bring down the cost of Sheraton’s products thus providing an opportunity to the company - either to boost its proíítability or pass on the beneííts to the customers to gain market share * New customers from Online channel - Over the past few years the lompany has invested vast sum of money into the Online platform This investment has opened new sales channel for Sheraton In the next few years the company can leverage this opportunity by knowing its customer better and serving their needs using big data analytics * The market development will lead to dilution of competitor’s advantage and enable Sheraton to increase its competitiveness compare to the other competitors * Organization’s core competencies can be a success in similar other products field A comparative example could be - GE healthcare research helped it in developing better Oil drilling machines * Government green drive also opens an opportunity for procurement of Sheraton products by the state as well as federal government contractors * Opening up of new markets because of government agreement - the adoption of new technology standard and government free trade agreement has provided Sheraton an opportunity to enter a new emerging market * Stable free cash flow provides opportunities to invest in adjacent product segments With more cash in bank the company can invest in new technologies as well as in new products segments This should open a window of opportunity for Sheraton in other product categories Following are the Opportunities in Sheraton SWOT Analysis: • • • Scope of expansion in affordable luxury High growth of hospitality business in developing markets Scope of development of luxury consumer goods and promotion 2.4 Threats Sheraton 's competitors: New World: 76 Le Lai Street, District 1, HCM City New World Saigon Hotel offers over 2000 square feet of unique and functional spaces for business and social events Park Hyatt: Lam Son Square, District 1, HCM city Park Hyatt Saigon Hotel consists of 245 rooms with exquisite French architecture All rooms are equipped with modern amenities: ipad mini, smart touch light system, coffee machine, Palace: 66 Nguyen Hue street, Ben Nghe District 1, HCM city Caravelle :19-23 Lam Son square, Ben Nghe, District 1, HCM city 1 >Emerợỉnợ competỉtors: -
