as the main supplying requirement of every individual to meet other important ends in
order to live. The concept of the company’s name is based on one of its chief products;
Chicken Wings with various flavors savored to hot and cold coffee and tea. It offers
WingTea Time
B. Business Offering
As many people have the sincerest desire to relax, spoil themselves and spend
time with their family and closest peers, most of them would agree that eating and
drinking coffee and tea in a comfortable hang out provide vigorous opportunity to
achieve these desires. People of different walks of life and different point of views would
always agree that you could be thrifty on many other things but never on food. However,
some people still choose to be economical and eat food that are cost-efficient but are

Milk Tea

milk tea could also be referred to all kinds of drinks with milk added on it
such as fruit drinks, coffee and chocolate. There will be 12 flavors from
pre-mixed milk tea powders with tapioca pearl as topping and will be

individuals in the area such as the need to support studies and other basic needs, many of
them choose to avail loans from underground lending (e.i. Bombay 5-6, short time & the
like) which offer as high as 20% interest rate which makes borrowers sunk from their
These underground lending, though highly demanded for its daily and weekly
payment terms, cannot really help the individuals in their financial shortcomings in the
long run. This has become the basis and main purpose of this study; to establish lending
company that will offer a reasonable interest rate to cater the financial shortcomings of
the market.
C. Unique Quality
Within the varied needs of people financially, (purchase land, get a head on a
business deal, or require some assistance, getting a major appliance for their home or
business and payment for their kids’ education), loans help them to get a lift out of the
financial situations they are facing. Establishing a business may have an initial drive to
gain profit; this lending business has its primary objective to provide quality service to
the people.
Other than what the usual lending corporations have, one unique quality of

their families;
CORE VALUES
Fund Lending Essential Incorporated, a company that stands for integrity and sets
a standard for it, inspiring others to be always truthful and fair as principles held higher
than profit and traditional business goals, adheres to the following core values:
ACCOUNTABILITY
The company will take personal accountability for our actions and results with a
focus on finding solutions and achieving results. We will actively engage in discussions
and commit to decisions once they are made by involving others in decisions and plans
that affect them. We will keep promises and commitments made to others and personally

relationships.
INTEGRITY
Integrity is the basis of excellence in our work. When it comes to virtues, one of
the most important is integrity. It is based in a value system that places people above
profits, relationship above ROI, reputation above revenues. It is the company’s belief that
becoming a person of integrity requires a personal quest for truth in all areas of life.
Chapter 2
THE CHALLENGE
considered. For a lending business conceptualizing itself is a very big challenge most
host of challenges. One possible challenge that Fund Lending Essential Incorporated
might be facing is considering the fact that it is new in the industry. There are also several
microfinance companies within the area of Lingayen and other financial institutions such
as banks and cooperatives that are also offering lending services. These are probable
In addition, basic trust in the finance and lending system is often lacking in many
of the middle income earners in which the company targets as one of its market.
However, the proponent does not want to discriminate, yet sees this challenge as an
opportunity to reach to the minority and low-income borrowers as they are being charged
Furthermore, another challenge that the company sees to face is the lack of system
or program in the country that runs credit check and investigates past credit performance
of the borrowers. Nonetheless, the company is still positive in the security of loans bound
with legal and proper documentations, promissory notes and presence of co-makers.
Above all, the company believes that no matter how big or small these challenges
could be, as long as there are dedicated staffs and optimistic leaders, these challenges will
be too trivial.
Finally, just like other lending institutions, the company is confident that as long
as needs arise, microlending will still be one of the people’s best resort.

determine if FLEInc. can successfully enter a market and generate enough profits to
In this study, the proponent sees that a demand over teachers’ loan since most of
the teachers and even other professions nowadays are engaging to business, therefore
resorting to loans. Moreover, it is also perceived that there is willingness over the target
market to borrow from lending institutions and they have the ability to pay their debts.

gender, age and source of income. Gathered survey information such as Existing and
