INTRODUCTION

Business planning plays a significant role in starting up a business. Likewise,

it is essential for a business to set priorities, establish goals, and measure

performance or, in other words, map the future of one’s business. It helps to manage

the business effectively by committing thoughts and foreseeing the needs of the

business. Its understanding will lead to specific courses of action, growth, and

Chapter 2

THE INDUSTRY AND COMPETITIVE ANALYSIS

The Industry

Industry Structure and Performance

On the Go competes in the world of the convenience food industry with its

main competitors, as will be stated, 7-Eleven, Family Mart, and Lawson. They offer

different varieties of onigiri where they inherit their flavors from different countries,

even in the country where onigiri originated, Japan. We will be offering onigiri

based on Filipino taste. We will be serving Filipino style onigiri. On the Go

produces Filipino-style Onigiri, On the Go, hence the company name. Onigiri is

usually packaged in plastic wrappers, stored in a chiller in said stores, and then

reheated later after purchasing. Our onigiri will be prepared fresh and hot for our

customers to enjoy. We would be preparing our onigiri as soon order came in to

preserve the freshness of the onigiri we are about to serve.

On the Go would also like to provide convenience to the customers. One of

our concepts here is that it is like a rice meal On the Go. You can choose the main

dish from our provided fillings: Pork Tapa, Adobo Flakes, Pre-made, Pork Tocino,

Sizzling Sisig, and Pork Barbeque toppings for a preferred flavor to your rice meal.

All that in one onigiri in which you can have for lunch or reserve for later, also; our
onigiri is microwave friendly, so you will not have to worry about losing it is

freshness overtime if you will save it for later.

Industry Outlook

The global food industry has navigated an extraordinary level of change

throughout this past year, prompting many food leaders to reassess their businesses'

organizational and operational readiness as we look forward to 2021. By

understanding the current landscape of the food manufacturing industry,

organizations gain insight into how their operations stack up to leading companies

and uncover key areas of focus for the coming year to maximize operational success.

Consumer attitudes are also changing, with on-the-go food no longer a

strictly working-week option, extending into the weekend and leisure time.

However, convenience is still king. "We have become used to spending less time

over our meals, with the minutes we spend, especially during the working day,

becoming a finer and finer commodity," says Louise Pilkington (2017), marketing

director of Compass Group UK & Ireland. "Convenience is now one of the top pull

factors for consumers."

Usually, convenience stores offer ‘convenience' to its customers meaning

they would sell items in small packages that we usually see in groceries in big

packages. The reason for this is because they target people that are  usually looking

for what will save them time, for example their lunch time, we all know that they

have very little time to have their breaks, so they find ways to maximize their break

15
with having a ready to eat meal, that is why the Philippine market for convenience

stores is growing fast and slowly adapting to its market’s needs, like the onigiri,

Family mart has started offering it to its customers nationwide, this is according to

Valens Research. This is also the direction of On the Go, Co. wants to pursue and

provide to our customers in the future. Also Japanese entrepreneurs are also seeing

the potential of expansion in southeast asia, regardless of their possible competitors.

In 2017 they lifted their sales to $25.2 million in that year alone. Therefore, we

conclude that the opportunities are endless and entrepreneurs should still go and

pursue their venture of their own

Noypigiri can be a major contribution as a convenience food. It is not fair

that we cannot get these elsewhere here in the Philippines. Filipinos are stuffed with

hectic schedules, from time to time, wherein people have a short time sitting down

and eating. Noypigiri is inspired by a Japanese snack and eaten like a sandwich, and

consumers need to pick it up and enjoy it. These delightful little rice meals with

Filipino flavors cannot only make your lunch seem very cutesy but also very

convenient.

16
Competition

Onigiri is one of the most popular snacks in the convenient store, with

millions sold every day. It shows that convenience stores are most likely our

competitors here in the Philippines, specifically 7-11, Family Mart, and Lawson,

which offers different onigiri variations.

7-11 convenient stores offer the following product: Salmon Onigiri, Natto

Rolls, Pickled Plum, Triple-Stuffed Hidaka Kelp Onigiri, Agodashi Spicy Cod

Roe Onigiri, Tuna Mayonnaise Onigiri with Rich Mayo, and Extra Filling. 7-Eleven

began research into adapting onigiri for convenience-store sales in 1976. These

variations of onigiri have put them on the top of the most onigiri consumers that we

consider as one of our major competitors in the onigiri industry.

The next competitor is Family Mart. They also serve variations of onigiri

such as Grilled Salmon, Salted Salmon, Chicken Mayo, Tuna Mayo, Tinapa,

Smoked Fish, Spicy Pollack Roe and Mayonnaise, and Spam Filling. FamilyMart

onigiri goes for P55 per piece and P65 when paired with a refreshing glass of iced

tea or lemonade. Family Mart ensures only the highest quality and most delicate

taste of its onigiri by using fresh ingredients and traditional Japanese condiments.

Under the stringent standards of an in-house Japanese product developer, Norio

Suwa became the exclusive food item that took center stage in Family Mart Manila,

which is considered their largest store.

17
Our last potential competitor is Lawson. It offers these variations of onigiri: Soy

Sauce Tuna Mayo, Grilled Salmon, Devil's Onigiri, and The Kinshari Onigiri—

Mackerel Grilled & Marinated with Miso. These variations lead us to product

competition since they also created unique names and unusual flavors that are also

the concept of our product variant.

Chapter 3

THE BUSINESS AND THE PRODUCT CONCEPT

The Business

The business started when five entrepreneurial students decided to be

partners in a business venture. The partners have a common interest in pack foods

such as our Noypigiri that provides Filipino-style meals that can be consumed

quickly. Our opportunity to offer them heavy and easy to consume products to offer

them energy throughout the day while maintaining our prices is affordable to

everyone.

Company Name

The company name was associate with the product itself. We came up with

the name “On the Go” which denotes of acquiring something and benefit from it

instantly and enjoy it “on the go”, which is primarily the focus of our proposal. We

wanted to provide people with purchasing meals that can be consumed quickly.

21
Company Logo

Figure 1 Business Logo

Mission and Vision Statement

Our mission is to exceed customer satisfaction. By providing delicious, full

packed foods that have a variety of Filipino flavors, to give the customers a different

food experience, and serve them on time by making food that they can eat and enjoy

on the go, which helps contribute to better eating habits nationwide.

On the Go envisions being one of the most leading fast-food chains in the

Philippines, becoming a nationwide chain, and being one of the few businesses to

provide specially designed and innovative products that benefit our beloved

customers.

22
The Product

Product Name
As seen in the figure below, the word “Noypigiri” is very straightforward for

the customer to understand it instantly, the letter “O”of the word “onigiri” was

replaced by the word “Pinoy”. The word “Pinoy” was actually flipped since it can

easily be remembered since the word is new to everyone. The word “Pinoy” also

pertains to the product in which, it was a combination of Filipino-style dish and

onigiri. This will further be explained in this chapter.

Product Description
Noypigiri offers a variety of Filipino-style fillings formed to ba an onigiri.

Those Filipino fillings are Pork tapa, Adobo flakes, Pre-made Pork Tocino, Sizzling

sisig, and pork barbeque. Our very own special ingredients make our pork tapa and

adobo flakes. We will be using pre-made Pork Tocino, Sizzling Sisig, and Pork

Barbeque, wherein we will source out to local supermarkets. We wrap our onigiri

with authentic Japanese nori to hold the onigiri without sticking the hands to the rice.

It also comes with different variations of rice mixtures for extra flavors. It

comes with Garlic Fried Japanese Rice, Japanese Rice with Assorted Veggies,

Japanese Rice with Bacon Bits, Japanese Rice with Shrimp, and Japanese Rice with

eggs. This variation of flavors will give our customers the best experience when they

eat Noypigiri. 

  We also provided different sauces for more flavors wherein the customers

can also have five flavors: Tuna Mayo, Melted Cheese, Barbeque Sauce, Toyo't

23
Calamansi, and Garlic Flakes. It will give them plenty of flavors running to their

mouth to provide them with a unique experience in our product.

On The Go, Noypigiri offers a variety of flavors that is not currently

common in the market. The flavor of the onigiri is a popular Filipino “ulam” that is

used as fillings in the product. These filings are Pork Tapa, Pork Tocino, Sizzling

Sisig, Adobo Flakes, and Pork Barbeque. 

Their preferred shape can customize the product's shape since we already

have tools to mold the product. The shape includes standard triangle, square, star,

flattened round, round, and cylindrical.

Our product is also unique, specifically in rice flavors wherein most of the

standard onigiri use only Japanese rice and salt for taste. It is also customizable,

wherein customers can choose their rice flavors according to their preferred choice.

It is one of our edges since most standard onigiri is already pre-made in every

convenience store.

It is affordable and has a Filipino twist on it. It is served to provide

convenience to the customer wherein they can consume it in a short period because

of its small type of product. It also provides the nutrients that an individual must

need for the day without the hassle of eating at a table or using a spoon and fork. We

believe that a hungry individual would not be able to perform their best in

workspaces, so our product is a perfect fit for people who are very workaholics.

Production Process

Pre-made ingredients process

Process A: Preparation of Japanese Rice

First, prepare 10 cups of Japanese short-grain rice, 11 ½ cups of water, and

the rice cooker. Put the rice in a large bowl and gently wash the rice in a circular

32
motion, and discard the water. Repeat this process about 3-4 times. Next, let the rice

soak in water for 30 minutes. Transfer the rice into a sieve and drain it entirely for at

least 15 minutes. Once water is boiling, turn the heat to the lowest setting and

continue to cook covered for 12 to 13 minutes, or until the water is completely

absorbed. At the 12-13-minute mark, take a quick peek and if there is any water left.

Then, close the lid and continue cooking for another minute or so. Remove the pot

(with the top on) from the heat and let it steam for another 10 minutes. Then transfer

the rice to a large plate or baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Fluff the rice

with a rice scooper. Let the cooked rice cool a little bit until the rice can be carried

without burning the hands. However, do not let the rice completely cool down.

Process B: Cooking of Rice Fillings

Prepare these ingredients: Cooking oil, Garlic, Assorted Veggies 3 Cups,

Bacon bits, Shrimp, and Egg. Put some cooking oil in the pan and start frying the

garlic, assorted veggies, bacon, shrimp, and egg per variant of fillings. Wait until 2-3

minutes and transfer it into the container.

Process C: Mixing of Rice Fillings

Prepare these ingredients: The five rice fillings, Japanese Rice, butter, salt.

Then, provide a huge container to mix the fillings and the rice until all the elements

are mixed properly. Then, put some salt and butter for flavorings. Lastly, put it

inside a container in preparation for the assembly.

33
Process D: Nori Sheets

Cut the nori sheets in thirds (⅓).

Process E: Preparation of Fillings: Pork Tapa

Prepare the following ingredients: 1-kilo pork loin with fat, one head garlic

minced, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup calamansi juice or lemon juice, 1 Tbsp. Brown

sugar optional, 1 1/2 cup Sprite or 7-up, salt and pepper to taste, ziplock bag, and

cooking oil for frying.

First, wash the 1-kilo pork loin in running water and drain for a few minutes

until it is tenderized. Next, slice the pork thinly, just like when slicing the meat when

making beef tapa. Then, in a large bowl or any plastic container (just enough to put

all the meat and the rest of the ingredients). Then, the pork, garlic, soy sauce,

calamansi juice, sugar, sprite or 7-up, salt, and salt pepper. Mix all the ingredients

until the sugar is dissolved and the meat is coated with the marinade mixture.

Marinate the meat in the fridge overnight. Use a zip lock bag, put the meat and

marinade and seal the bag instead of just using a bowl. This way, the meat will be

marinated evenly. To cook the pork tapa, heat about 1/4 cup of cooking oil and fry

the meat on low heat for 8 minutes or until the pork is tender and light brown.

Lastly, transfer it to a container and set aside the pork tapa filings.

Process F: Preparation of Adobo Flakes

34
Prepare the following ingredients: 2 lbs of non-fatty pork, two tablespoons

garlic minced or crushed, five pieces dried bay leaves, six tablespoons vinegar, 1/2

cup soy sauce, one tablespoon peppercorn, cooking oil, 2 cups water, salt to taste.

Combine the non-fatty pork, soy sauce, and garlic, then marinate for at least

1 hour. Next, Heat the pot, put in the marinated non-fatty pork, and then cook for a

few minutes. Pour remaining marinade, including garlic. Then, add water, whole

peppercorn, and dried bay leaves, then bring to a boil. Simmer for 40 minutes to 1

hour. Put in the vinegar and simmer for 12 to 15 minutes. Then, add salt to taste.

Shred the pork pieces along the grain to get small strands. Prepare to heat oil

in a pan, and once it starts to smoke, add the pork strands. Cook while continuously

stirring until crispy, add vinegar let, mix and let it cook for a while. Remove from

pan and place in a colander to drain excess oil. Lastly, transfer it to a container and

set aside the adobo flakes fillings.

Process G: Preparation of Pre-made Pork Tocino, Sizzling Sisig, and Pork

Barbeque

Prepare the following ingredients: 3 packages of Pork Tocino, Sizzling Sisig,

and Pork Barbeque (each), ¾ cups of water for each filling, three tablespoons of oil

for each filling, frying pan.

35
Separate the three fillings into three different pans. Leave the pan in medium

to high heat for about 10 minutes. Add the three fillings and water. Simmer until

water is reduced and add oil. Then, cook until desired crispness is achieved. Lastly,

transfer it to a container and set aside the three filings.

Process H: Onigiri Assembly

While rice is being soaked and drained (45 minutes), prepare the onigiri

fillings (Process C, D, E). Wet both of your hands with water to prevent the rice

from sticking to your hands. Then put some salt in the hands and rub to spread all

around the palms. Then, dip three fingertips in salt. Scoop out a handful of (Process

A) Japanese short-grain rice (about ⅓ cup) into one hand. Create a small well

(indentation) in the center of the rice. Put one kind of filling (about 3-5 tsp) inside.

Then mold the rice with your hands around, cover the filling entirely, or use a

molder for a specific shape. Press the rice around the filling to gently form the rice

into a triangle. It uses three fingers (thumb, index finger, middle finger) to make a

triangle corner. The hands should be just firm enough, so the onigiri doesn’t fall

apart. Wrap the onigiri with nori seaweed (Process B). Next, sprinkle it with sesame

seeds on top. Lastly, place a little bit of each filling on top of onigiri to know which

kind it is.

Process I: Molding of Shape

Molding tools are provided to mold the preferred shape of the customer.

36
Process J: Sealing of Product

Wrap the finished product onigiri with a polypropylene plastic onigiri wrapper.

Other Processes

Process K: Microwaving of onigiri

When customer orders, onigiri are microwaved for 1 minute if it is ordered.

Process L: Adding sauce

Onigiri is opened and added with 10 grams of Tuna Mayo, Melted Cheese,

Barbeque Sauce, Toyo’t Calamansi, and Garlic Flakes.

Process M: Taking of orders

Customers are asked for their orders and given an option to choose what

preferred fillings they would like to go with their chosen onigiri.

Process N: Serving

Customers are served with their orders.

Time and motion study

The time and motion study is done by estimating the number of outputs and

how long it takes to produce a batch. The production and time are estimated by

timing five trials for each task. The amount of working time per day was estimated

to be 8 hours during the study. The purpose of the time and motion study is to

estimate how many orders the business can take and fully understand the worker’s

capacity. The proprietors also used the time and motion study to improve working

time or increase the number of batches that can be produced in a single production.

It is also a great way to find the most efficient and effective way of creating the

products.

On the Go plans to utilize the assembly line in the production of the products.

It was considered the better option rather than the job shop because the creation of

onigiri is only composed of simple repetitive tasks that any member can do. It is also

preferable because of its nature to utilize every worker to complete a task.

Plant Capacity

The team can produce 50 servings per batch of 5 different product varieties a

day. It will be stated later on that the survey results regarding the respondent fillings

preference that 23.6% of the respondent’s chose pork barbeque which is the highest

preference percentage. As our results, we are going to produce more products that is

preferred by the respondent’s, while the least preferred will be produce less.

Based on the time and motion study and plant capacity, starting with our

“Pork Tapa Noypigiri,” the total task time is 85.96 minutes, wherein it can produce

six batches with a total of 300 units in 8 hours straight. In comparison, our “Adobo

Flakes Noypigiri” has a total task time of 84.66 minutes that can produce six batches

with a total of 300 units in 8 hours straight. Lastly, as our last three variants, the

“Tocino, Sisig, and Pork Noypigiri” has a total task time of 35.94 minutes.

Compared with the two variants, the three variants can be produced quickly since

there are no preparations of ingredients that can produce 13 batches with 650 units in

8 hours straight. We based our servings on the meat per product variant since it is

one of the expensive ingredients that we need to maximize without any leftovers. On

47
the Go will make batch servings by half cooking the fillings and making 50 units per

batch that prevent the operation from having leftovers.

Business Location

Since we are in a pandemic situation that limits everyone to go outside,

especially children and teens with an age bracket of 0-18, which is one of our

potential customers, the team decided to sell our products online since the business

can be operated from anywhere. It also has no opening time restrictions. While

operating the business online, the team also decided to be on Molino IV, Bacoor,

Cavite (Near SM Molino) since one of our team has a business in the area. It is an

opportunity for us to create a store beside it. The location is also our advantage

because all the team lives within Molino IV, Bacoor, Cavite that enables the team to

meet.

If the pandemic ends, the first location that the team decides will be on De La

Salle University Dasmarinas. This location would be ideal for us to test our newly

developed product since there is also a student like us. We can ask the students to

give us feedback about our product. This will help us to improve products and

services.

On the Go’s second location will be on malls, putting a store in a mall that

could determine how competitive our product is. Currently, the proponents are

eyeing to agree with any mall that would have a good market for the product.

Chapter 5

MARKETING PLAN

This chapter will establish and integrate all its sales effort and marketing to

project a consistent image of the partnership that everyone in the organization should

understand and support.

Marketing Environment

On the Go, Noypigiri is a new variant of onigiri that we would like to

introduce to the market. Noypigiri has its competitors, specifically 7-Eleven, Family

Mart, Lawsons, and local korean store. So far these competitors are very familiar to

the public, and to us, they lack marketing strategy in term of promoting their product

especially their onigiri. We want our product in the system of the public wherein it is

the option of the public as their preferred rice meals since there are a lot of options.

The team will utilize its promoting strategies, and hoping that the public will

consider our Filipino variant of Onigiri. Other factors that can affect our company

are its social and cultural aspect, eventually, the public’s view of onigiri will change,

the trend will change, and that is one of the factors every retail store might be afraid

of, one day you are the trend, and the next day you might be not, and this affects the

whole company, sales, product, and the morale of the company.

Another factor that may affect the business are the economic factors of the

country. It will have a big impact on the business in terms of newly passed laws that
regards to taxes that will surely affect not just our business but every other industry

out there. For Technological factors, the team assume that these factors will benefit

us. There might be new machines that can be developed that will make our jobs

easier in terms of production, technologies for the office workspace, and many more.

We believe that these 4 factors shall impact the company in the present and

presumably in the future.

Target Market

The company's target market is the residents of barangay Molino I-IV. The

survey was conducted in these barangays in Molino, Bacoor, Cavite. Based on the

socio-economic classes, our main target would be the skilled both blue and white-

collar workers. The company tries to keep the selling price "friendly" that focuses on

the upper-middle class, middle class, working-lower, and even the last class listed in

the socio-economic classes. We want to reach out to every worker out there.

This is the company's long-term goal. For now, the company would like to

focus on barangays Molino I-IV. We mainly target those employees who have hectic

schedules. The company also would like to pursue this venture based on the survey

results, which is very promising to the company, and every expectation from the

survey was achieved; that is why the company will pursue this venture.

57
Market Study

The purpose of the market study is to gather data on customers and potential

customers. It explained the detailed description of the research design used on how

the research was done, the data gathering procedure, and the statistical technique.

Objectives of the study

 To determine the psychographic profile of the target market

 To determine the customer’s buying power and buying patterns towards their

food.

 To determine what kinds of fillings the customers would like to go with the

onigiri.

 To determine the customer’s willingness to buy the product.

 To assess the acceptability of the product to the market.

Research Methodology

As stated in our research design, the team uses a descriptive research

approach to determine the market potential of a random population in social media.

It focuses on Molino I-IV, Bacoor, Cavite area by using data collection and content

analysis, resulting in a report on the variations and differences of the respondents'

preferences.

Population and sample size

The researchers used the population of Molino I, II, III, and IV, Bacoor,

Cavite as our population size. Molino I-IV has a population size of 163,215, and out

of this population size, the sample size of 383 was selected, but we are able to cater

442 respondents that provide us a more robust basis that has a margin of error of

0.05 percent and a confidence interval of 95 percent.

Research Instrument

To get the appropriate data needed, the researcher will have a survey

questionnaire with fifteen questions with six (6) parts that become our data gathering

tool. The survey questionnaire contained daily allowance, product preference, eating

habits, spending habits, willingness to purchase the product, evaluation of the

proposed product, price preferences, suggestions for improvement, etc. Starting from

question 1 to 3, the questions will ask for the profile of the respondents, specifically

59
their names, gender, and age. For question 4, it is a tool for us to determine the level

of allowance per day from our respondents to understand the respondents buying

power as stated in our objectives of the study. For question 5-8, it will determine the

familiarity of our product within the market. For questions 9-12, it will determine the

evaluation of respondents about our product preferences. For questions 13-14, it is a

tool to determine the respondent's willingness to buy the product and the

respondents' evaluation of our proposal's ideal price preferences. Lastly, question 15,

will determine the respondent's suggestions for the possible improvement of our

proposal that becomes our basis for the concept to be improved.

Method of Data Collection

The researchers used stratified random and convenience sampling and non-

probability sampling. To guarantee that our potential respondents will answer our

survey, we have tried sending our survey requests during peak response times,

specifically Thursday and Friday. We have acquired all of the data in different social

platforms wherein we send out the survey links in social media such as Facebook,

Instagram, and Twitter.

Method of Data Analysis

To effectively gather market data, the researcher selected self-administered

questionnaires that combined quantitative and qualitative data. We have summarized

and compiled the data’s percentage results in every question for us to acquire the

60
respondent’s preferences and insights from the data set that includes numbers,

statistics, characteristics, and ideas.

Results and Discussion

There are 163,215 people in Molino I-IV, Bacoor, Cavite in 2021. According

to the statistics of worldpopulationreview, Bacoor, Cavite has a population of

700,000 in 2021, whereas in 2015, its population is around 600,000, increasing about

15%. Since the population data in Molino I-IV that we have gathered is only the

population size in 2015, we multiplied it to 15%, which is the percentage basis of

increase in population in Bacoor, Cavite for us to have the 2021 Molino I-IV

approximate population size that results to 163,215.

the question, we cannot tally the respondent’s allowance or any graph that would

finalize the statistics. But as we observe, the majority of the respondent’s allowance

per day is 500 pesos which is an advantage for the team since we have a price

advantage considering that our product is only below 50 pesos. In short, customers

can purchase our product within a day with the allowance that they have.

have chosen “55”. 19% or 84 respondents have chosen “65”. 15.2% or 67

respondents have chosen “75”. Lastly, 8.6% or 38 respondents have chosen “80

product price, we still have a higher mark-up value since the average production cost

of our onigiri is around 19.29 pesos. The fillings, sauces, and packaging are not yet

included in the average price. If fillings, sauces, and packaging are combined, the

cost of the average filling is 3.80, the cost of the average sauce is 2.68, and

packaging average cost is 3.35, which leads to a total of 29.12 pesos with a mark-up

of 15.88 pesos if the product price is “45” pesos. The “45” pesos range is also our

68
competitive edge over our potential competitors since our competitors have a price

range of 55-180 pesos based on Table 1. Competition.

Marketing Strategies

Product

As stated in the uniqueness of the product in chapter III, “On The Go

Noypigiri offers a variety of flavors that is not currently common in the market. The

flavor of the onigiri is a popular Filipino ‘ulam’ that is used as fillings in the product.

These filings are Pork Tapa, Pork Tocino, Sizzling Sisig, Adobo Flakes, and Pork

Barbeque”. The product is customizable, wherein customers can choose their rice,

fillings, and sauce flavors according to their preferred choice. In short, our product is

made to order.

This is one of our edges since most standard onigiri is already pre-made in

every convenience store. Secondly, we wanted to take serious action in packaging

design since packaging can play a vital role in product sales and boost our brand.

The team also wants to improve the product’s appearance to give a quality

impression (functional value). It can draw attention and influence the ease of

categorization of the product.

69
Place

As stated in our business location in chapter 4, the team decided to be on

Molino IV, Bacoor, Cavite (Near SM Molino). The team selected the area because

one of our team has a business in the location. It is near a subdivision (Citihomes

Subdivision) that can open an opportunity to market our potential customer by

promoting our product in the subdivision’s social media group, specifically on

Facebook. Bearing in mind that a subdivision consists of different types of socio-

economic classes, our target market. The range of the location is composed of more

subdivisions, but we would like to focus on a subdivision nearest to our stall. It is

also an opportunity for us to create a store beside it since the building itself is a

storefront commercial property. Since it is a storefront commercial property, the

possibility of acquiring our market is high considering that the commercial business

is already well known within its location.

The location is also our advantage because all of the team lives within

Molino IV, Bacoor, Cavite that enables the team to meet. The location also has a lot

of trade channels wherein we can have different options of getting our supply chain

partners such as wholesalers and retailers by finding the right contact and ask to

work with them that fits in our business to be able for us to reduced issues with

availability, quality, and delays in supply. Lastly, to the competitors that are within

the range of the location, our public relations manager would try to monitor the way

the competitors do business, specifically the new products that they are developing,

how they charge prices, how they distribute and deliver their products, their media

70
activities and such. By assessing their business, the team is going to adopt the

competitors’ business to be applied to ours and make improvements out of it that

will make our products, services, and marketing stand out.

Price

On the Go wants to monitor quality and customer service satisfaction closely.

The team has decided on a price of 45 pesos based on Table 34 in results and

discussion. We want the price to be attractive to consumers while still turning an

acceptable profit for our company. We will use a product development strategy that

process of bringing innovation to consumers. Our price is our competitive edge since

our competitors have a price range higher than our price. The team chooses

competitive pricing as our pricing strategy since the behavior of our customers is an

important element for product pricing. Once the product is part of a mature market

and fighting with a relatively high number of substitutes and competitors, the pricing

actions of our competitors could well be a factor driving our profit. This is where we

set the price according to the competitors.

Promotion

The proprietors will utilize direct marketing through this, and it allows

proprietors to communicate with the target market directly. Second, the company

will be accessing online advertising by using Facebook advertisements, Twitter Ads,

and Instagram short videos and photos. We will also be handing out printed ads such

as flyers and posters put in public places to make the business and the product itself

71
familiar to the public to acquire more brand recognition. Third, we will have high

aesthetic photos on our website. Arguably the very best way to promote our

restaurant online is with high-quality, drool-inducing photos. Visual content is in

high demand online these days, and having delicious-looking images on your

website and across various social media outlets is essential for drawing the hungry

eye.

We will hire people with the profession of photography and such. Fourth, we

will conduct meetings with potential investors. We will also pitch the goal of our

business to our potential investors to make those potential investors help us build the

reputation of our business. Fifth, we will be contacting influencers such as brand

ambassadors and send them packages to try. Another strategy we would like to apply

is a referral program where every new customer gets a card where it said that if you

bring a friend or anyone you know, you will get something free from the menu, be it

an appetizer or an entrée. Sixth, we will be a partner of delivery services for Food

panda and Grab Philippines. Lastly, we will do house-to-house product selling and

brochure within the business perimeter, and last, we will attend food park events to

gain more customers and increase our product awareness.

Sales Projections

On the Go will base its sales projections in 4 quarters annually. Upon the

start of operations, the company projects that the company would sell an average

assumption of 65 units per day in the first quarter and it will gradually increase

72
overtime, in total, if we want to know how much we sell in a year, the total units

would be 43,890 units. A table below is provided for more accurate information.

With our selling price of PHP 45 per Noypigiri, PHP 10 per rice fillings, and

PHP 8 per dips, we are looking at a total sale of PHP 1,167,210 in 43,890 units sold

including the fillings and dips. By adding the total units, we can acquire 43,890 units

to be sold. However, it is just an assumption if all of its products are sold in each

quarter within the year. The sales projection will further be explained in chapter 6.

of its products are sold in each quarter within the year. Also, since the business’

nature is to deliver its food fresh to its customers, the business is to avoid inventory,

stock, as well as the pre-made product.

Sales Budget calculates the expected sales in units per quarter and its

associated amount in PHP. As seen in the graph above, Quarter 1 started with 65

units to be sold within a day, then multiplied by 22 working days and to be

multiplied once again in 3 months. We included also the 5 variants of dips with a

total of 25 units sold, 5 variants of rice fillings of 25 units sold that has a total 50

units to be sold within a day in the Quarter 1. Succeeding amounts were also

adjusted to meet the desired sales. This means that both the sales in units and the

number of sales must increase over time.

product. From the data given above, the total direct labor cost from quarter 1 is PHP

76
3,249.47 with an increasing pattern toward the end of the year. This only means that

the direct labor cost is said to be increasing since the business’ sales are also

increasing. Additionally, the labor hours per unit were computed using the time-

The business has no indirect labor cost in its initial year for all its employees

work in production. But the business must include labor, relative costs, and indirect

materials to arrive at the cost per unit. The total cost per unit per quarter is

77
decreasing since the production workers’ output is increasing over time and its costs

are being well distributed to enable the product’s cost to decrease.

Factory overhead includes both total variable costs and total fixed costs to

arrive at the manufacturing overhead per unit. Its amounts are fairly similar to the

previous table since all of its costs are parallel to each other. The only difference

between these two tables is how the factory overhead budget presents its data. The

This table shows how the product’s costs are spread within 4 quarters of

business operations. Once again, the cost per unit is decreasing over time since sales

in units are increasing and labor costs stay the same throughout. Although overhead

costs are increasing, labor costs have the highest impact on determining the sale

price of the product.

The operating expense budget shows the business’ expenses per quarter

deducted from Gross Profit that is also shown in the income statement for the

succeeding tables. These expenses were incurred by the business that stretches

within a year, specifically in quarters. Mandatory deductions were computed to

82
include the required obligation by the business on the paychecks of its employees.

Percentage tax was also computed under the Create Law.

The income statement shows the total sales for all quarters less the output tax

to arrive at the net sales. Since COGS has already been computed, it is then

subtracted to net sales to arrive at the gross sales. The gross sales is the profit before

expenses and taxes which means expenses incurred by the business and the

associated percentage should be deducted. By deducting the expenses and taxes from

the gross profit, the group now arrived at the net income for each quarter.

The balance sheet portrays the total assets, liabilities, and capital of the

owner. This also shows the running balances per item per quarter. This will be

helpful to determine financial ratios and analysis that the business needs in order to

continuously improve its operations. Not only does it provide important details, but

it also allows investors, possible business expansion, and possible investments that

the owner might make.

The cash flow statement explains what has happened to the business’ cash

balance all throughout the year divided into quarters. It includes cash flows from

operations, investing activities, and lastly financing. This also helps to see how the

cash balance found in the balance sheet will arrive at its correct amount. Overall, this

table helps both the owner and the business to look deeper into sections on where its

cash balance performs good or bad.

For the break-even analysis, sale price, variable costs, and fixed costs must

be determined. BEP can be computed by dividing the fixed cost by the difference of

sales price and variable cost. Ending the year 2022, the BEP in units is at 10,237.56,

meaning that the amount given must be sold to break even.

Margin

Gross profit margin measures the percentage of each sales pesos remaining

after the firm has paid for its goods. It measures how much a company makes after

accounting for the cost of goods sold. For the GPM at year-end, it has a total amount

of approximately 17.21% which means that 17.21% of sales is the total gross profit.

This is a very significant ratio for small retailers, especially during times of

inflationary prices. If the owners of the firm do not raise prices when the cost of

sales is rising, the gross profit will erode.

Net Profit Margin measures the percentage of each peso sales remaining after

all costs and expenses, including taxes, interest, and preferred stock dividends, have

been deducted. In other words, it shows profitability after further accounting for

non-operating expenses. The net profit margin shows the firm’s ability to generate

earnings after all expenses and taxes. A net margin ratio of 13.08% means that for

91
every PhP1.00 of sales, the firm produces 13.08 pesos of net margin. Obviously, the

higher the ratio value, the better it is.

Return on investment simply shows the percentage of how the initial or total

investment can be repaid or refunded by the total net profit. Based on the table

above, this tells the group that over 59% is the rate of return on investment at year-

end 2022 (once more, assuming that all units have been sold during the entire year of

operation).

Ratio

The table measures the business’s ability to meet its short-term obligations.

The current ratio tells us if a firm has sufficient cash or other liquid assets to cover

its short-term obligations. The higher the current ratio, the more liquid the firm.

Since the business opted to operate mainly with the owner’s investment, the business

has no amount for its current liabilities’ running balance. This is also to avoid

additional expenses, specifically interest expense, that the business has to pay.

Ratio

Quick (Acid Test) Ratio is similar to the current ratio except that it excludes

inventory, which is generally the least liquid asset. It provides a better measure of

liquidity when a firm’s inventory cannot easily be converted into cash. However,

since the business’ assumption is to avoid inventories as well as loan balances or

liabilities, its quick ratio is similar to its current ratio.

Ratio

As said before, the business has disregarded the use of additional cash

balance in return of incurring liabilities. This decision alone restricts liquidity ratios

to have amounts. Since liquidity ratios seek how the business turns its assets to pay

for its liabilities, and by not having liabilities, the business is said to be liquid. The

operating cash flow ratio is a measurement of how easily a company's current

liabilities are paid by cash flows generated through activities. This metric can be

used to assess a firm's short-term liquidity. As seen in the table below, the cash flow

ratio is similar to the quick ratio since the current assets of the business only entail

cash on hand. Since the business is fairly decent in size and is only operating for the

very first year, the lack of entries for other current assets is expected.

MANAGEMENT PLAN

94
Form of ownership

The business decided to take up an organizational structure called limited

partnership, in a limited partnership, at least one general partner is responsible for

the day-to-day operation of the company. A general partner might be a single person

or a legal body such as a company. These sorts of partners make business choices

and are thus entirely responsible for any debts or lawsuits the company incurs.

The business decided this form of organizational structure because some of

its partners are looking for investment opportunities that can gain them passive

income because they are occupied with matters of their own but in this company,

knowing that the partners have been partners since their college days they have

decided that the partners have the option to be hands-on in the business. That’s why

Mr. Angelo Felizardo, the general partner of the company is the one who will

operate and run the company with his investors/partners, Carol Reyes, Emmanuel

Anonuevo, Jervic Rico, and Justin Gutierrez. The partners have come to an

agreement that the five of us shall share all assets and liabilities within the company,

as well as profits acquired and losses by the company. limited partners invest in the

business but do not make operational decisions or carry any personal liability for

company debt. One or more of each type of partner can come together to create a

limited liability partnership.

The group is established by 5 Entrepreneurial Students of De La Salle

University – Dasmariñas. These students are Angelo Felizardo, The president of the

95
company, Carol Reyes, Alven Rico, Emmanuel Anonuevo, and Justin Gutierrez. All

said members share all assets and liabilities within the company and profits are

Organizational Structure

On the Go, follows a hierarchical organizational structure led by the CEO.

Meaning all decisions are to be made by him. Moreover, the finance manager will

oversee the organization's performance, handle all the transactions, and oversee the

departments' reports. The fundamental factor in this kind of setup is the

communication between each department and the finance manager before going to

the CEO for final approval. This type of organizational structure helps the company

to build camaraderie between the employees. It also helps production be more

efficient because of the clear division of work and the well-established authority,

which is crucial to building better communication.

SOCIO-ECONOMIC PLAN

Introduction

This is a study of how economic activities affect the proposed business

performance. This is related to the benefits that will be given to a business to the

community as a whole.

Social responsibility is one of the factors that must be considered by the

business. The company considers public interest in responsibility for the impact of

its activities on customers, employees, government, environment, and other

industries. To be able to achieve business goals, a company must contribute to the

overall economic welfare.

Awareness of this proves business concerns not only on profit maximization

but also in the internal and external environment.

This study will function as an aid in determining the socio-economic

contribution that the company can offer to the community.

On the Go will provide new job opportunities for workers who have the skills

needed for the work. With the work offered and the wages they can get, they can

contribute to the percentage of employment and the economy of the state in a way

that will help their family to earn income to meet their daily needs. Apart from the

salaries obtained, training will also be made for employees to improve their

knowledge and skills.

102
If the company plans to expand in the near future to cater more

employees/laborers, the firm will have employee benefits such as the Social Security

System (SSS) which includes protection of disability, diseases, maternity, old age,

death, suicidal events and other contingency which results in loss of income and

financial expenses.

One of the other benefits is Philippines Health Insurance Corporation

(Philhealth) which provides subsidized services for in-patients and out. Employees

are also mandated to contribute to PAG-IBIG funds that provide provider funds,

short-term and housing loans to workers. Life insurance would also be provided for

the employee, and within that insurance, there are separate benefits in the instance of

how the worker passed away regardless if he/she is on-duty. 

Since the proposed business is just a start-up, the five members agreed to

temporarily not include said benefits to gather maximum assets that will surely

increase the opportunity of the company to grow.

Partners

Business will begin through the contribution of business owners. They will

be partners in managing and developing business. Planning and decision-making

will be carried out by them and the benefits obtained will be divided equally

between them. Business will function as a training place for them to improve

business management and make decisions. Partners are responsible for achieving

business goals and solving the problems they will face.

103
Customer

On the Go provides high-quality products to employees. Customer

satisfaction is the number one concern of the business to be able to achieve good

relationships between our potential customers. Based on chapter 3, it is stated that “It

also provides the nutrients that an individual must need for the day without the

hassle of eating at a table or using a spoon and fork. We believe that a hungry

individual would not be able to perform their best in workspaces, so our product is a

perfect fit for people who are very workaholics.”

Government

Taxes are the main revenue stream for the government. This provides

government funds for the needs and projects to the public. This business is expected

to make a major contribution to the government through legal tax payments that

includes paying taxes and licenses and other permits to operate a business. It will

also contribute to the improvement of the country’s economy.

Environment

On the Go will conduct a thorough policy on waste management to maintain

cleanliness and maintain the practice of environmental responsibilities. The

company will adopt 3R rules (reduce, reuse and recycle).

The right disposal of waste is one of the responsibilities of employees

through the supply of trash cans for biodegradable, bio-degradable, and recycling.

104
Plastics and cans collected will be sold at the Junk Store. The collection of sales will

be added to the budget provided to maintain cleanliness around the business.

Other Industries

The firm will support small businesses that have the supplies that are needed

for our business operation. By making this relationship, both the company will

benefit and grow that will establish good relationships to other industries, and it is

also an investment to the company to have good ties with other companies.

Chapter 9

RISK AND CONTROLS

Introduction

The Company would like to implement a Risk Management plan within the

company, it involves all the risks and threats that the company can possibly

experience throughout its venture. Within this risk management plan are the

protocols for when a possible risk occurred in the company, it shows how the

company will react and solve said risk and/or threat. Aside from the current plans,

the company will also have contingency plans to back up the original plans if it were

to fail to attend to said possible risks that may occur. 

Risk Management Procedure

1. Process

Mr. Emmanuel Anonuevo, our operations manager will work with the project

team to ensure that the risk is profoundly identified, analyzed, and managed

throughout the project. The risk will be identified as early as possible in the project

so that it minimizes the impact. The steps to achieve this are described in the

following section. Our operations manager will also function as risk managers for

this project. In this risk management procedure, we have four main factors.
1.1. Risk Identification

1.2. Risk Analysis/Assessment

1.3. Risk Response Planning

1.4. Risk Monitoring, Controlling & Reporting

1.1. Risk Identification 

First, the company would like to identify what possible risk has occurred within

the company. From there the company shall know what next steps should it take to

oppose said risk that has occurred in the company. Mr. Anonuevo, our Operations

Manager shall know what the company’s next steps are in this kind of situation or

scenario with the company. He shall also have a team with him to assist him in

sorting these bottlenecks within the company.

1.2. Risk Analysis/Assessment 

All risks that are identified shall be assessed immediately on what possibly have

occurred or something that triggered said risk. Mr. Anonuevo’s team shall come up

with a theory or a hypothesis and shall present possible projected solutions of how it

can be solved, it should also come from him on how the company should act on the

occurred risk.

107
1.3. Risk Response Planning

In handling risks that have occurred already or will possibly occur, this are the

following approaches that the company can take whilst trying to solve said risks: 

Avoid - The company shall do its best to avoid any possible risk, in this approach

the company should be careful of its actions, be it external or internal affairs.

Accept - There are occurrences that a company can’t fix, some companies accept the

damage that has been done with the company, and the company shall start from there

to repair damages that it has encountered. This shall be the company’s last resort.

Mitigate - The company shall also know when a risk has occurred and it is possible

to try to reverse its effects or just lessen the damage that it can do to the company.

The company shall know how to act and try all possible solutions to try to sort risks

that have occurred in the company.

1.4. Risk Monitoring, Controlling & Reporting 

Mr. Anonuevo and his team shall keep a close eye on the company, risk or no

risk, he shall lookout for possible situations in the present, if they would cause

problems in the future for the company. Also, reports of problems within the

company shall come from Mr. Anonuevo himself, an everyday report to his partners

of what are the things that are happening in the company. He shall monitor

production, employees, R&D, etc.

108
2. Scope

The Risk Management Plan shall involve the following Departments in the

company:

 Administration

 Operations department

 Finance department

 Marketing Department

 Public Relations

 Production department

Mr. Anonuevo shall orientate said departments of the plans that he and his team

prepared, so that these departments can act independently, in some cases of

problems only concerning their departments. They can still ask for assistance with

the operations department if there is something that they really can’t decide

themselves as a department, and that is only when Mr. Anonuevo shall inform the

partners of a potential problem concerning the whole company.

109
3. Roles and Responsibilities

Mr. Anonuevo shall be the one to hire and assign his subordinates, the

following shall be considered: 

Risk Supervisor - The supervisor shall be able to identify and report to the

Operations Manager said findings and the Operations Manager shall also relay the

next steps in solving said findings to the Supervisor. Then the Supervisor shall relay

it to the Team leader for its next steps.

Team leader - The Team leader shall be the one to act on the procedures provided

by the Operations Manager to the department that is asking for assistance. The team

leader shall be assisted if needed by other Operations employees assigned in

working.

Operations Employees -  The Operations Manager will hire specific employees for

the Team leader to assist him for when there is a need to assist him.

110
CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

After a long and hard ten weeks of research, the team was finally able to

gather up the conclusions, owing it to the hard effort of everyone in our group who

does not give up when the times get tough. We worked as a team, and we achieved

and struggled as a team, that is how we were able to address the situation. Therefore,

we are hoping to satisfy our professor in Entrepreneurial Research 2, Miss Epifania

Anfone, and our panelist with our research paper with ease alongside pursuing the

project proposal in the future together with the team.

We concluded our research project using the procedures provided by our

professor, Miss Epifania Anfone, and found that we had acquired all the needed data

throughout this project. The team attains to find the objectives to have a clear vision

of the goal of the company. We also have created a competitive edge to compete in

the industry as stated in the previous chapter. We believe that we have innovatively

created a new product which can capture the eye of a potential major market that

was explained thoroughly in chapter 3. In chapter 4, the team learned to understand

the importance of procuring raw low-cost supplies that affects the price of our

product variants on the production cost. It results in generating a low cost product

with a high mark-up profit which has a selling price that is affordable to everyone. It

became our advantage since we can still lower our selling price but still acquire an

acceptable profit. We have developed marketing strategies to help us attain the

attention of our potential target market. Therefore, we conclude that this is a feasible
business venture that we are all confident to take on. We believe that we can sustain

this business with the team working in unison by using the information gathered in

this paper to help progress this business in the future. The ultimate goal is to go

nationwide in the next decade, while going international in the next coming years

after we attain our first goal.
