Introduction

In this project we had been asked to propose and then choose countries suitable to open dishwasher manufacturing facility. We decided to first prepare countries we would like to run our new business and then define indicators which allow us to make right decision. From broad list of both indicators and countries, we picked those, we thought are most appropriate ones.As a next step we analyzed reports on dishwasher markets in countries chosen that we found in Euromonitor database. Basing on data provided in those report we assessed scores used later on to pick the most appropriate country. For countries and indicators chosen we gathered data for last 5 years. Each indicator was weighted so as market report and weighted score for each country was calculated. Whole research was based on Euromonitor database as it provided us all necessary data, which was also up to date.

Indicators

List of proposed indicators

Table 1 List of proposed indicatorsIDIndicator nameDescription

1.GDPIt indicates how much economy produces. It is one of most important factors for any business.

2.GINI IndexIt shows how income is distributed within a country. Countries with high GINI index may not be a good choice because it can mean that we may not find too much customers.

3.Access to electricity, waterTo run dishwasher both electricity and water is needed. Markets with low rate of access to those resources can be a poor choose.

4.Price per 10 litres of DieselIndicates how expensive transportation in country is. Merchandise such as dishwasher are mostly transported via road infrastructure.

5.Average size of householdIt is important factor because the bigger the household is, the more they need appliances such as dishwasher.

6.Wage per hour in manufacturing Indicates how much it will cost to hire workers, management staff. It will also somehow indicate how rich society is and how much can they spend on our products.

7.CIT valueIt indicates how much tax we will have to pay for our sales. The lesser CIT is the more we will earn (if other indicators are the same)

8.Average water / electricity pricesBoth resources are needed to run a dishwasher so if their prices are too high (especially electricity as studies shows that dishwashers are less water consuming that regular, hand washing) people may not be optimistic about buying our product. Also in production process electricity is used so the cheaper it is the lower our costs are.

9.Household appliance expendituresIt shows how much, on average, family spends on household appliance (such as dishwasher) every year. The more they spend the better customer they can potentially become.

10.Land pricesIf we want to open a factory we have to take into consideration buying or leasing a ground for this facility. Since leasing seems unprofitable (considering that factory is rather long-term investment), land price is really important factor for us.

11.Steel pricesSince dishwasher are made mostly from steel, its price is important factor. The less it costs in chosen country the less it will cost us to create the product and the more competitive we can become (potential export).

12.Highways densitySimilar to diesel prices. Since we plan to transport products with trucks, number of highways is important indicator. Highways are safer, faster, cheaper (they dont deprecate trucks as fast as regular roads) than regular local, roads.

13.Corrupcy rateOn one hand if the country is corrupted we can use it for our advantage. On the other hand it is never safe to operate in a country with high level of corruption.

14.Number of universitiesAs we plan to invest in R&D, university graduates will also be taken into consideration as our employees. So the more universities in a country, the higher the number of graduates.

15.Interest ratesPrice of money is always an important indicator for investors. It indicates ex. how much bank loans costs in given country.

16.Possession of dishwashersIndicates how many households already possess a dishwasher. It define how many potential customers we will find in given country

Brief dishwasher market description in chosen countries

Russia[footnoteRef:1] [1: Section based on Dishwashers in Russia Report (20 Mar 2015, Euromonitor)]

Important facts: Sales volume grew by 17% Sales value grew by 17% Total volume was 879,000 Units Total value was 16.7 billion RUB Average price remained unchanged comparing to 2013 19,000 RUB Biggest competitor would be BSH Bytowaja Technika with 49% of Market share

General trendsDishwasher was the fastest developing category of major household appliances in Russia. Most of Russian households is already equipped with most important appliances such as washing machines and cookers so we can assume that right now they will focus on dishwasher market. Another reason may be increased marketing activity of current manufacturers.The average price of dishwasher in Russia is about 19,000 RUB and it havent changed last year possibly because of high competition in the market.Important factor, worth considering is increasing availability of consumer loans. It leads Russians to both changing their living places (and buying all needed appliances for new ones dishwashers included) or simply buying dishwashers for their current houses. It is important that in bigger cities flats are rather small so size of dishwasher will matter for customers.

CompetitionBiggest potential competitor will be BSH with 49% market share. It owns well-known brands Bosh and Siemens. According to Euromonitors report Second important competitor would be Indesit with 13% of market share.

Brazil[footnoteRef:2] [2: Section based on Dishwashers in Brazil Report (16 Jan 2015, Euromonitor)]

Important facts: Sales volume increased by 28% Total volume was 382,000 units Unit price increased by 2% to 1,162 R$ Biggest competitor would be Whirpool with 38% of market share

General trendsBrazil may be hard market to access because of cultural reasons. Hand washing is considered as important duty of every housewife in Brazil. Also Brazilian society is rather suspicious about new technology and dishwasher is considered as one there. People in Brazil still thinks that dishwasher uses more water than hand washing, but awareness is increasing.Although there was a growth in sales, it was much lower than it was forecasted. One of reasons may be still relatively high unit price. To overcome this difficulty competitors are trying to design more affordable products which leads to opening local factories instead of importing dishwashers from other places.Since unit price is rather high, dishwasher are affordable almost only for higher income households. Those households very often hire maids to take care of house duties though. This may be the reason for this lower growth of sales volume observed.

CompetitionIf Brazil would be chosen as a place to create the factory, we would have to face two main competitors. The first one is Whirpool SA with 38% of market share. Its two main products, Brastemp and Consul are respectively on first and fourth positions in terms of sales volume. Second serious competitor would be Electrolux do Brasil SA with almost 33% of market share with only one brand Electrolux.

South Africa[footnoteRef:3] [3: Section based on Dishwashers in South Africa Report (24 Mar 2014, Euromonitor)]

Important facts: Sales volume increased by 1% Sales value increased by 4% Average price unit slightly decreased Biggest competitor would be LG Electronic SA with 23% of market share Dishwashers are considered in South Africa as luxury, non-essential good

General trendsSince dishwashers are still considered as luxury good in South Africa and hand washing is the most popular method, our target would be upper-medium to higher class. We still need to remember that members of those classes frequently employs local workers to maintain their houses because of low costs of low educated labor. Typical use pattern for those who actually owns a dishwasher is to wait as long as they will be able to load full machine and use it then.Most of sold dishwashers were freestanding ones (99% of total sales), so if we choose South Africa we should focus on this type of machines. Also new trends were witnessed among consumers. They tend to choose so called smart dishwashers. As smart dishwasher we understand ones that e.g. adjust water volume and temperature to load of the dishwasher. Consumers also pay big attention to noise created by machines.

CompetitionThere are four main players in dishwasher market in South Africa right now. The biggest one is LG Electronics SA with 23% of market share. Next three have almost the same market share, where: BSH Home Appliances Corp Ltd has 16%, Defy Appliances Ltd has 15% and Electrolux SA Ltd has 14%. Three first companies based only on one brand while Electrolux introduced 2 brands.

Egypt[footnoteRef:4] [4: Section based on Dishwashers in Egypt Report (15 Jan 2015, Euromonitor)]

Important facts: Dishwashersis expected to drop in volume by 3% and in current value by 5% during 2014 Fresh Electric Co is set to continue dominatingdishwashersin 2014 with a volume share of 59% Egyptian buyers lean toward littler models of dishwashers as a result of little kitchens

General TrendsSmalldishwashersrepresented the dominant part of volume deals in dishwashers in Egypt at ,the end of the review period as the majority of Egyptian customers find them more convenient as the kitchens in typical flats are quite small. Moreover they also believe that smallerdishwashershelp consumers save energy and water. Majority, particularly middle-class consumers live in small apartments because of low rents charged for these apartments. This leaves many of them with little choice but to purchase smaller dishwashers and this is the why so many Egyptians prefer table-topdishwashersrather than standard size dishwashers .Table-top dishwashersare remain the most popular format indishwashersinEgyptfor 2014, accounting for 46% of all dishwashersretail volume sales. Full-sizedishwashersis set to be the second most format, but, with a 38% volume share into the supporting.

CompetitionLocal company Fresh Electric Co is expected to to keep up its driving position in dishwashers Egypt during 2014 with a market volume share of 59%.

Important Facts In 2013 dishwashers registers retail volume development of 16% to achieve 33,630 units and current worth development of 23% to achieve offers of Rs1.1 billion Freestandingdishwasherscontinue to dominate, with negligible demand for built-in formats IFB Industries Ltd leadsdishwashersin 2013 with a 52% volume share

General TrendsDishwashersdisplayed volume growth of 16% in 2013, making this the best performing category in major appliances. Additionally, the classification's volume development in 2013 was all that much on a standard with its survey period normal. It was partly also due to its very low sales base inIndia.Dishwashers increased some popularity over the review period however their achieve kept on being restricted to rich buyers in urban zones like New Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai and Bangalore. Dishwashers were valued at over 480$ every unit, which meant they were unaffordable to most consumers in small towns and rural areas.The widespread availability of housemaids and cheap labour is the primary reason for the low penetration ofdishwashersinIndia. Furthermore, an erratic supply of water and electricity, even in metropolitan areas, has hindered the growth ofdishwashers. Indian cooking uses a high measure of oil and other sticky ingredients. This makes the dishes harder for dishwashers to clean thus they have to be flushed independently before being stacked into the dishwasher Full-sized dishwashers kept on leading in 2013, representing a 93% offer of volume deals. The remaining 7% was represented by slimline models. Compared to the West and other parts of the developed world, there were hardly any sales of minimized or table-topdishwashersinIndia. This was because the Indian market remained immature.

Competition With a 52% volume share in 2013, IFB Industries Ltd continued to dominatedishwashers, followed by LG ElectronicsIndiaPvt Ltd with 11% and BSH Bosch & Siemens Hausgerte GmbH and Electrolux AB with a share of 8% each. Of the top five players indishwashersin 2013, only IFB Industries Ltd is a domestic company. However, it led the category because it has years of experience in the Indian market. It understands consumers habits, lifestyles and preferences much better than other

Summary

Basing on both on indicator chosen and market research the best country, from analyzed ones, would be India. Even though only half of the households has access to water its still leaves about 600 million of potential customers, because right now only 0.3% of households possess a dishwasher. It was the lowest value of all analyzed countries. It may seem as there is just no need for dishwashers in India, but market research showed that during last year there was a 16% of growth in dishwasher sales. This shows that there is growing demand for such appliances, even though most of small town and rural areas citizens still cannot afford dishwasher. With growing salaries (10% in 2014[footnoteRef:10]) and water and electricity accessibility it may be the best moment to enter Indian market. There is one dominant manufacturer right now with over 50% of market share (IFB Industries Ltd) and rest of competitors dont exceed 10% of market share, so there is still place for new players. Income distributions is still acceptable with Indian GINI Index set at 41, so only 6 points worse than e.g. United Kingdom (and over 20 points better than analyzed South Africa). [10: Source: http://www.india-briefing.com/news/average-indian-salary-to-increase-by-10-percent-in-2014-7933.html/]

As it comes to costs of operating in India, it was also one of the lowest from countries analyzed. Both costs of labor (average price for one hour in manufacturing) and diesel fuel (showing cost of transportation) was lowest (labor was lowest and diesel cost was third to lowest). India citizens tends to spend quite a lot on household appliances, basing on their income. We need to take into consideration downsides of manufacturing and selling in India. For example maids position in India. They are still very popular in families able to afford them. This factor may influence demand for dishwasher. When combined with character of Indian cuisine (heavy on oil and other sticky ingredients) that needs also more advanced (and expensive) detergents it may seem just too expensive. We can work this around though, by e.g. setting lower prices on our products (which is possible to low costs of labor and oil).
