Preface
I am very interesting with the IT industry. In the free time, I spent most of my time to
reading the relative knowledge. That’s why we focus our project on the digital
product industry. As the BA undergraduate students, we got a lots chance to write the
business plan, but this is the first time we deal with the realistic situation, such as the
financing. In this reports, I think every group members had practiced their knowledge
to their own works. We got more understanding a about how to bring a business plan
into the real life. Thus I believe what we have done in this project, will enhance our
practical skills for future career.
Executive Summary

Chinese has an old saying, “Time make it inevitable that in every profession, young
men replace the old”. Evidence of China’s digital product industry—MP3 Player,
MP4 Player, and other accessories—abounds in the country’s prosperous coastal cities.
According to practices for promoting the integrated development of urban and rural
areas through urbanization, the domestic electronic consumption demand was
significantly increased. Furthermore, the quality of citizen’s life, the Chinese digital
product industry will progress with the growth of the economy. To get a complete
picture of digital product industry in the world’s most populous and fastest growing
country, this project takes a closer look at four first-class digital player brands in
China, which are Ramos, Aigo, Newsmy and Meizu. Those four brands are
respectively belonging to four high-tech enterprises. They both serve their product
base on the fundamental “science and technology first, quality first, the pursuit of
customer satisfaction”.
This study gives, however, some of my hypothetic thinking for the whole market in
Thailand, for our product. In order to test these hypothetic thinking, a multi-stage
methodology was employed that is often taught in courses on international strategic
planning at graduate schools of business. First, we apply Political, Economic, Social,
and Technological (PEST) analysis to study a framework of macro-environmental
factors, Competitor analysis to assess the strengths and weaknesses of current and
potential competitors, Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, and Threats analysis to
identify the internal and external factors that are favorable and unfavorable to
achieving our objective. Then, we make every marketing strategy individually; they
are STP Strategy, Branding Strategy, Pricing Strategy, and Retailing Strategy. We also
discuss those which are indispensable for our company such as Product Offering,
Marketing Communication, and Business Ethics, etc.
This project concerns about importing, exporting and other international trade
regulation process. The study, therefore, is only for practicing basic approach to
analyze particular foreign market with the general knowledge about industry,
marketing, technology, a depth financial analysis and risk management.
We carry out an experiential analysis by using data of six years historical sale data to
calculate the profits for the project and draw following conclusions: the business for
selling the digital products which made in China to Thailand is profitable. The
company can show a realistic path in revenue by year three for the investment to
undertake.

Introduction

This business project is about importing and selling the digital product. This project
will consider all the business activities will happen in real life. We are going to
describe our business according the process which a real business runs on. Every
information relate with this project will be collected from the research.
Accord the observation of the digital product market of Chiang Rai, we found that
there are approach 20,000 students in Chiang Rai, and the main customers of the
digital product come from those students. Most digital product store only sells the
products of IPod and Sony. But the price of these products is relatively high for the
main customer. So we think a lower-price and high technology digital product such as
Mp4 player watch will satisfy their needs.
Chinese factories make all imaginable types of digital products, usually much cheaper
than anywhere else. Otherwise in recent year, the transportation between Thailand and
China has enjoyed a rapid development. Transport channel is more and more, but the
price is getting lower and lower. Due to these reasons above, The Company will be
located in Chiang Rai; the store site is near the Rajabhat University. The inventory
will be purchased from China suppliers for selling a lower price than other
competitors.

Project Objective

In this project, the main objective is to find out a more effective way to run our
business, and to make the business be profitable.
To achieve the goals, we will conduct the descriptive, analytical research. We will
apply the quantitative approach to collect and analyze numerical data. In this study,
primary and secondary research will be both incorporated. It supposes to be the

 
inductive research as well. We will use the theoretical frame work which consists of
the relative theory of marketing, logistic, especially financing, etc. There are a lot of
Mathematical Approach will be used to analysis the findings.

Benefits of Project

We have already written a lot of business plan, marketing plan and every kinds of
report. Sometimes we really think we know a lot about business. But we never
conduct any of our plans. Actually, knowing how to write a business plan doesn’t
mean you know how make the business, at least it may lack of feasibility. Some real
problem which we have not faced in our plan will be face in the real life.
Study on this project, however will cover this drawback, because we must think about
the reality. We should make every of our finding to be reliable. And we will put our
knowledge to work in solving real problems.
At last, through study on this project will help us to enhance knowledge and get more
understanding of the subjects in BA program; acquire skills such as communication
skills, intellectual skills and organization skills through practicing them; identify
opportunities in the future.

2.2 Situation of Industry
China Guangdong is the world's manufacturing center, 80% mp3 maker of China
is from here. In southern China, especially Shenzhen production of various types of
radios, tape recorders, video machines, VCD, DVD, music center, home theater,
auditorium sound systems and other audio-visual products for more than 80% of the
test certification is in Shenzhen Electronic Product Quality Testing Center completed,
while the MP3 audio-visual products are also belong to the scope of national
regulations with the territoriality principle of electronic product testing, most
produced in Shenzhen, MP3 should be able to find a basis for testing.
Consumers to buy mp3 player, the price is the first consideration. Accounted for
75.2%, followed by the sound quality, accounting for 71.9% of users said that the
sound quality is good or bad will also decide whether to purchase MP3 products.
Capacity factor in the ranking is at the third position, with 66.5% of consumers as an
important reference. In addition, the MP3 market, product homogeneity, the brand is
often highlighted the role to, which is many users will be a brand as a reference factor,
the survey showed, considering the brand this factor is as high as 66.1% of users. The
appearance of the product is as a reference of factors account for 52.5% of the users’
ratio. From the proportion of several factors point of view, did not differ much,
indicating that consumers consider when buying MP3 products, many factors, from
the side reflecting the overall strength of the products with outstanding performance
to get consumers.
Experienced the madness in 2006, flat in 2007, MP3 market in 2008 is boom,
when the function and design at the same level, entangled, cut prices once again
become the market's overall trend, whether it is cross-brand, or the China local brands,
both struggle with the residents of the consumer price index rising so that continue
updating the price of the MP3 bottom line.
In recent years, MP3 players, the overall prices have been continuously falling,
and its price cuts and the reasons for this are similar to other IT products, mainly due
to decline in raw material costs, manufacturing process to improve, enhance and scale
decline in personnel costs and other factors, in addition, weakening of the dollar, the
RMB exchange rate increased by a certain extent, MP3 prices accelerated a decline in
the Chinese market.
Core price cuts cause: sharp drop in raw material costs

 
NAND memory chips are MP3 players, mobile phones and digital cameras and
other products, the main raw material, but since late 2006 to early 2007, due to the
upstream supplier of NAND memory chips to the market is too optimistic about the
prospects for a substantial increase in the output of NAND memory chips, but the
actual market demand significantly lower than expected levels, resulting in a serious
surplus production of NAND memory chips, the price plummeted, the market began
to shrink.
Authoritative international market research firm Gartner believes that short-term
market has no signs of recovery, coupled with the trend of a global recession was
increasingly evident, its 2008 global semiconductor market expectations, was not very
optimistic, in fact, only the first two months of 2008, market-mainstream 4GB NAND
memory chip prices already down 26% in early March 2008, in mainland China
memory market, 1GB/2GB/4GB NAND memory chip prices have respectively
dropped to 68 Baht, 97 Baht and 185Baht, and the , the upstream market, the new
wave of the impact of price cuts have not yet fully manifested in the end-product
markets.
As NAND prices have fallen sharply, Samsung, Toshiba, Hyundai and other
related manufacturers of memory chips sector has suffered a near devastating blow to
their earnings from profits in 2006 fell to the edge of today's losses, but the price of
memory chips because they cannot effective demand for support continues to decline.
In addition, due to Rock chip, Chinese domestic chip manufacturers such as
core-fly made great progress, its low price, superior performance, a new generation of
master chips on one hand, the high cost of foreign products out of the market will also
be developing MP3/MP4 Player substantially reduced the cost of the master program.
In the display, since the TPO, Chi Mei Optoelectronics, BOE and other display
manufacturers to upgrade manufacturing technology, it has the small size of portable
devices, display to the previous generation (or even the previous generation)
production line manufacturing, to ensure of the display yields and low prices.
Overall, due to flash memory chips, the master chip, display three major
sharp drop in raw material costs not fully reflected in the end-product prices,
MP3/MP4 players, lower prices will trend has continued.
Other price cuts reasons: technology, manufacturing, the combined effect
of exchange rate
As the size of the domestic MP3 market, the high-speed growth, the market has
taken shape in a handful account for most of the market share leader in the status quo,
these leaders with a more adequate capital accumulation, continued to strengthen and
consolidate its manufacturing processes and production scale, through the
introduction of modular, professional, highly efficient new generation of
manufacturing technology and related equipment, greatly improved the passing rate of
the product and process standards, and reduce the single-product manufacturing costs,
while accelerating the construction of raw materials through the supply chain and
product manufacturing industry chain clusters, gradually reveals the prototype scale.
As for the reasons for cross-brand products, price reductions, in addition to the
cost of raw materials to benefit from the decline in the international market, but also


 
with their share of China's economic growth related to the outcome, as the
international transfer of manufacturing to domestic, cross-brand manufacturing plant
will generally be transferred to the southeast coast of areas, low-cost, high quality
human resources, coupled with intensive modes of production to a large extent to
reduce their production costs.
In addition, the long-term U.S. dollar weakness, rising RMB exchange rate,
cross-brand products in the domestic market prices are significantly reduced. For
example, point of view, a fixed exchange rate in adjusting the RMB ago, a 100 dollar
MP3 player, equivalent to about RMB 823 RMB (U.S. dollar and the RMB exchange
rate of 1:8.23), is now also a 100 dollar MP3 player, equivalent to RMB only 682
RMB (U.S. dollar and the RMB exchange rate of 1:6.82), the price of virtually
dropped 17%. Of course, if even get to the bottom, import MP3 player prices also
imported electronic products in China customs tariff policy on zero, which is in
accordance with the WTO agreements in China, a major adjustment.

http://www.xe.com/ 07/01/2010
Whether manufacturing process improvements, enhanced scale, a decline in
personnel costs or exchange rates, trade, MP3 players, all of which contributed to
lower prices, in fact, benefited from the implementation of many of China's advance
in recent years, processing and manufacturing, export-oriented trade, macroeconomic
policy, as consumers, MP3 player, a clear underlying causes of lower prices after the
price cuts for the current product has a clearer understanding.

The Newman Newsmy A18HD (nice name there) is a new media player out of China,
which claims to offer a spectacularly svelte 9.8mm thick form factor (which is a
couple of millimeters thinner than an iPhone at it’s thinnest point). In addition to its
striking looks, the A18HD has 16GB of built-in memory, and sports an oversize
5-inch, 16-million color LCD display. The device can play videos in 720p
resolution, but the screen’s resolution is an underwhelming 480 x 272, so you’ll
want to connect the included component video cable if you have any hope of playing
back your flicks at higher resolutions.

Audio formats supported include MP3, WMA and FLAC, while video can be played
in RM, RMVB, AVI, and FLV formats


 
Meizu Miniplayer TS

The M6 is from Meizu's digital audio player productions. Accordingly, it is only


emerging in certain parts of the world including the United States, Australia, France,
Russia and more. Though the M6 supports many audio formats, the US release did not
support MP3 format because of licensing issues. Apparently, there are workarounds to
the issue with specific firmware upgrades.

Recently, Dane-Elec has formed a deal with Meizu to provide distribution of the M6.
Apparently, Dane-Elec has ironed out MP3 licensing issues. Many European models
distributed by Dane‐Elec have their FM tuner disabled because of EU import duties;
this can also be remedied by a firmware update.

The M6 has been touted as an “iPod killer” because of its capabilities with respect to
its aesthetics. One characteristic regarding the Meizu M6 is its ability to function
without proprietary file formats and procedures.

Market Feasibility Study

3.1 Market Analysis


3.11 General Environment Analysis 

Political  ‐  The politics of Thailand are currently conducted within the


framework of a constitutional democratic monarchy, whereby the Prime Minister is
the head of government and a hereditary monarch is head of state. The judiciary is
independent of the executive and the legislative branches. After the 'democratic
revolution' in 1932, the country officially became under a constitutional democratic
monarchy with a prime minister as the head of government. The first written
constitution was issued.
During 2008, Thailand saw increasing political turmoil. The conflict makes the
political environment worsened slightly in 2009 when compared with before.
Moreover, future investment decisions by Thai companies could well be affected by
the uncertain political environment. Such perceptions, however, should come as no
surprise given the volatile global economic environment over the past few years,
coupled with the highly volatile political situation following the 2006 coup.

Economic - Thailand's real GDP growth in 2008 was 2.6 per cent, falling
below previous Thai Ministry of Finance growth estimates due to the emerging global
14 
 
economic crisis. Thailand’s export sector, which accounts for around 60 per cent of its
GDP, suffered due to falling global demand – a trend that may continue into 2009. In
the first quarter of 2009, total exports declined by 23.1 per cent year-on-year, which
contributed to a 7.1% contraction in GDP. Headline inflation in January 2009 was
-0.4%.The Thai government has adopted a two-stage fiscal stimulus response to
address the effects of the crisis. The first phase, introduced in February 2009, was
aimed at stimulating domestic purchasing power through cash handouts. The second
phase, worth around $57 billion, will be released over the 2010-12 period for a range
of large scale infrastructure projects.

Social – Environment ‐  The culture of Thailand incorporates a great deal of


influence from India, China, Cambodia, and the rest of Southeast Asia. Thailand's
national religion Theravada Buddhism is central to modern Thai identity and belief. In
practice, Thai Buddhism has evolved over time to include many regional beliefs
originating from Hinduism, animism as well as ancestor worship. The official
language of Thailand is the Thai language, a Kradai language closely related to Lao,
Shan in Burma, and numerous smaller languages spoken in an arc from Hainan and
Yunnan south to the Malaysian border. It is the principal language of education and
government and spoken throughout the country. Most of Thai people have a positive
attitude to foreign products and services. The new generation of Thailand is able to
speak English very well and a little Chinese. There is no difficult for the diffusion of
Western and Asian products onto markets.

Environment ‐ Thailand’s economic growth over the last three decades has
been fueled and accompanied by rapid industrialization, urbanization, and by
intensified agricultural production and fishing. This growth, which has relied
extensively on the country’s abundant and diverse natural resources, has degraded
land and water quality, caused the loss of natural habitats, and generated increasing
levels of air and water pollution. In response, the Government and people of Thailand
have launched new initiatives to improve air and water quality, reforest degraded land,
15 
 
adopt energy efficient technologies and invest in pollution abatement schemes. In
recent year, the World Bank’s relationship with Thailand has evolved from lender to
knowledge-sharer. Exemplifying this new role, the Bank and government have
recently established a Country Development Partnership for Environment (CDP-E)
(see below), which focuses on improving environmental quality and sustaining natural
resources through knowledge-sharing and demonstration.

Technology  ‐  With the exception of multinational companies, businesses in


Thailand limit most of their Internet involvement to basic electronic data interchange,
processing networks and messaging systems. Some customs procedures are conducted
online, and the Stock Exchange of Thailand has permitted online trading since April
2002. Electronic banking is developing, with all the major banks now offering
transaction and account-checking services online. Websites are increasingly offering
interactive transactions, but most are static information outlets. The government is
offering more services online, mainly through its portal: www.ecitizen.go.th. Because
of the licensing structure and the limited scale of commerce in Thailand,
Internet-related transactions are defined purely in technological terms.  

3.12 Competition Analysis 

    Competitor  Analysis  ‐  In Chiang Rai, there are lots of digital product


stores, small and big, normal and special. They mainly located in It center of Chiang
Rai city, Big C shopping mall, the neighborhood of the universities. Those stores
consist of most computer stores and little specialty stores. Those computer stores
provide a limited variety and assortment of merchandise at a convenient location.
They enable consumers to make purchases quickly, without having to search through
a large store and wait in long checkout line. They provide low price product but low
16 
 
service also. For the specialty stores in Chiang Rai, they concentrated on a limited
number of complementary merchandise categories and provide a high level of service
in relatively small stores. Most of these stores just offer quite expensive digital
products, such as product of IPod, Sony, and Philips etc.

            Customer  Analysis  –  In recent time, we just conducted a study on the


customer behavior of Digital product in Chiang Rai. The results shows that the mainly
customer of Digital product are students whose age is between 15 to 20 years old.
When try to ask: “do you like to wear mp3 player-watch?” There are almost 70% of
those participators said yes. 42% of them purchased digital product from IT center,
50% from shopping mall and 8% from other stores. The lifestyle of those mainly
customer are sport and nature. They are more interesting with high-technology
product. Most of digital product buyer is the end user. They purchase the products for
themselves. There are a high number of products and services for whom the buyer is
the main driver being making the purchase.

Competitive  Analysis  –  Our competitor are those computer stores and


specialty stores. They located in the shopping mall or some convenient site. Their
inventory mostly comes from Thailand with relatively same price. Our store will seek
to the high-technology product with lower price. Most inventories will be purchased
from China suppliers, which will make our product different from our competitors.
Our customers are students those who like sport or nature lifestyle. Unlike the normal
computer stores, we will care both service and product parts. We will provide high
quality product with good service to satisfy those customers.

According to the communication budget, we can see the level 8 contributes the higher profit, but 

the expense levels between  12,000 and  14,000 all result almost the same level of profit. Thus, 

our company should choose the level 7 for our communication expenses. 

 
3.6 Conclusion
In conclusion, I view the digital product marketing in Chiang Rai in a positive way. It
has both stable general environment and low intense competition. In Chiang Rai, we
see the economy has increased faster over the last few years. And the residents are
increase every year because lots of students come here. In addition, since the
establishment of GREAT MEKONG SUBREGION COOPERATION, it has brought a
lot of potential advantages for the business of those countries such as the free tariff
trading. We believe our business will be successful in the near future through seizing
the opportunity.

Administration Cost for per month


Electricity B 2,475
Telephone 1,800
Fax Salary 1,500
Internet fee 1,000
Water fee 30
Receipts 800
Total 7,605

-Management Analysis
The form above display every month our company has to pay for support the
operation of our company. It is essential for every company which want to
performance good. It calculated that we need 7,605 baht to support our company per
month. Exclude the Internet fee and water fee is fix cost, others are variable cost like
electricity, telephone, fax salary, receipts. So we just can estimate.

-Conclusion
From the data of pre-operation 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014 display that the
total investment for year decrease year by year until year 2012, at year 2013 and year
2014 happened some small inflation because of the exchange rate. From current
exchange rate we can get the conclusion about the Chinese RMB exchange Thai Baht
lower than before, so we assume that the rate will be decrease for a long time until
year 2012. At year 2013, we assume that the rate will be increase at that time, so at the
same money, we can exchange more Thai Baht. So the expense at year 2013 is
especially high. Decorating fee, equipment fee, computer, MP3, Mp4 product fee are
35 
 
changed along with the exchange rate prospect. And the internet portal we updated
once every other year for attract customers, at the same time we can save cost.

Risk Management

Every business has risk, so we need set up risk management, it will help us minimize
losing. We set up our own risk management information system, we use a computer
software program that assist in performing this task.
The risk management includes risk measurement, assessment and response
strategies. Risk management through risk identification, prediction and measurement,
select an effective means to reduce costs as much as possible; there are plans to
address the risks in order to obtain the company's basic security.
At first, we should predict the risk of our future. We use the method of
Financial Analysis Form to identify our risk. Through the enterprise's balance sheet,
profit and loss statement, business report and other relevant information for analysis,
we will identify and found the risk about our existing property, liability and other
risks. Or use the method of risk prediction; we hire professional people to help us

49 
 
predict our risk. The risk managers use scientific methods to analysis and research
that known statistical information, risk information and the nature of risk, in turn,
determine the frequency and intensity of risk, in order to select the appropriate risk
management approach to reduce losing. When we know the potential risks, we must
be prepared a variety of ways to address these risks, thereby helping to reduce the
losses and minimum damages.

Risk management ensures that an organization identifies and understands the risks to
which it is exposed. Risk management also guarantees that the organization creates
and implements an effective plan to prevent losses or reduce the impact if a loss
occurs.

A risk management plan includes strategies and techniques for recognizing and
confronting these threats. Good risk management doesn’t have to be expensive or
time consuming; it may be as uncomplicated as answering these three questions:

 What can go wrong?


 What will we do, both to prevent the harm from occurring and in response to
the harm or loss?
 If something happens, how will we pay for it?

Benefits to managing risk

Risk management provides a clear and structured approach to identifying risks.


Having a clear understanding of all risks allows an organization to measure and
prioritize them and take the appropriate actions to reduce losses. Risk management
has other benefits for an organization, including:

 Saving resources: Time, assets, income, property and people are all valuable
resources that can be saved if fewer claims occur.
 Protecting the reputation and public image of the organization.
 Preventing or reducing legal liability and increasing the stability of operations.
 Protecting people from harm.
50 
 
 Protecting the environment.
 Enhancing the ability to prepare for various circumstances.
 Reducing liabilities.
 Assisting in clearly defining insurance needs.

An effective risk management practice does not eliminate risks. However, having an
effective and operational risk management practice shows an insurer that your
organization is committed to loss reduction or prevention. It makes your organization
a better risk to insure.

Role of insurance in risk management

Insurance is a valuable risk-financing tool. Few organizations have the reserves or


funds necessary to take on the risk themselves and pay the total costs following a loss.
Purchasing insurance, however, is not risk management. A thorough and thoughtful
risk management plan is the commitment to prevent harm. Risk management also
addresses many risks that are not insurable, including brand integrity, potential loss of
tax-exempt status for volunteer groups, public goodwill and continuing donor support.

Why manage our risk?

An organization should have a risk management strategy because:

 People are now more likely to sue. Taking the steps to reduce injuries could
help in defending against a claim.
 Courts are often sympathetic to injured claimants and give them the benefit of
the doubt.
 Organizations and individuals are held to very high standards of care.
 People are more aware of the level of service to expect, and the recourse they
can take if they have been wronged.
 Organizations are being held liable for the actions of their
employees/volunteers.
 Organizations are perceived as having a lot of assets and/or high insurance
policy limits.

Chapter 7

Summary

At the end of the year 2008, a new change outbreak on the decline of the walkman
industry, a new technology came out with a new name “HD MP4 player”. This
innovation not only brought a powerful impact on MP3 player industry, but also made
the Chinese manufacturers see their new direction. To 2009, “HD MP4 player” started
its penetration on the market. The mainstream digital product manufacturers in China
such as Ramos, Aigo, Newsmy and Meizu both posited themselves on the MP4 player
market. From the digital products marketing in 2009, HD mp4 electronic products
will continue to occupy the mainstream market.

As a result, our project grasped this trend and took a full study on the digital product
business. We discussed our business based on five dimensions which are industry
natural, marketing, technical, financial, and at last, risk analysis. As I mentioned on
the first chapter, we conducted the descriptive, analytical research, then applied the
quantitative approach to collect and analyze numerical data.

Based on the study the following general recommendations can be made for the
benefit of the investors:

Industry natural - China Guangdong is the world's manufacturing center, 80%


digital produce on here. In recent years, MP3 players, the overall prices have been
continuously falling, mainly due to decline in raw material costs, manufacturing
process to improve, enhance and scale decline in personnel costs and other factors, in
addition, weakening of the dollar, the RMB exchange rate increased by a certain
extent, MP3 prices accelerated a decline in the Chinese market. The main products of
our company are HD MP4-player, come from four first-class digital player brands in
China, which are Ramos, Aigo, Newsmy and Meizu. Those four brands are
respectively belonging to four high-tech enterprises. They both serve their product

52 
 
base on the fundamental “science and technology first, quality first, the pursuit of
customer satisfaction”.
Market – Through a general view from the environment in Thailand, which consists
of political, economic, social and technology, the marketing environment is stable and
has the potential opportunity. Our business will launch in Chiang Rai, which has the
incremental students in recent year. According the plan, the products will target on the
students, and offered them with the low price but high quality products. Some
marketing expense was provided with general mathematic model. Based on these
finding, we view the digital product marketing in Chiang Rai in a positive way. It has
both stable general environment and low intense competition.
Technical – In this part, you can see our production process, which started from
“negotiate with manufacturing”, “purchase products”, “shipping” to the end user’s
hands. You will see the cost of investment, six years for Pre-Operating Cost,
depreciation, Administration Cost. From the data of pre-operation 2010, 2011, 2012,
2013, 2014 display that the total investment for year decrease year by year until year
2012, at year 2013 and year 2014 happened some small inflation because of the
exchange rate.
Financial - using the accounting and financial analysis this business, the profit and
loss statement, cash flow, balance sheet were listed. The profits will be showed very
clearly, sales projections that start off pretty level, then make a very quick, sharp,
almost 90-degree turn straight up into the stratosphere. This part mainly focus on
Time to profitability, Year five sales, Reality check and Overall profitability.
According on the results, our confidence on this business is getting stronger.

Risk Management – This part set for studying our business risk. Our risk will mainly
come from the cost of logistic. As our business came from the Chinese supplier, the
logistic problems need be handled well to deal with the products cost. 3rd Party
Logistics will be used to manage this risk. They can design a longer-term plan
included a subsequent re-evaluation of the company's needs to determine if having
private warehouses would be more appropriate and cost effective at a later date. They
53 
 
can also use the logistic company’s program to make the process easier. For example,
a RFP program, RFP's were distributed and responses were evaluated in an RFP
"scoring" matrix format that was developed to make it easy to compare each
company's costs and capabilities. Finally, as the result of having an inventory close to
the market and efficient warehouse management, and as the decrease in distribution
cost, sales will increase.

At last, since the establishment of GREAT MEKONG SUBREGION


COOPERATION, it has brought a lot of potential advantages for the business of those
countries such as the free tariff trading. We believe our business will be successful in
the near future through seizing the opportunity. Hope we have provided an attractive
and realistic project on this report. Contact us if you get interested in our business.
