EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Parattha Ghar - "re-inventing parattha," unlike a typical traditional foodbusiness, will provide a unique recipe of excellent traditional food at valuepricing with a guaranteed hygiene and wholesomeness. Parattha Ghar is theanswer to an increasing demand of people for high-quality and economical food.Customers want value for everything that they purchase with their limitedbudget and at the same time, they are not willing to accept anything that doesnot meet their taste expectations.

The idea originated from the basic understanding of our food traditions whereinpeople have a taste for food and dining out is more of a status symbol. In atypical Lahori setting, food is something everybody is interested in and a widevariety of cuisines are served on menus of hundreds of food points across LahoreMetropolitan. This prompted us to set up a small food business with a uniquerecipe of traditional food item “Parattha”.

Parattha Ghar features unique traditional recipes for low price. We willprimarily be serving top quality chicken parattha roll served with a variety ofsauces. With white meat increasing in demand today alongside an ever-existentinclination of our society towards traditional taste, we believe that our productwill ensure our success.

WEAKNESSES

1- Lack of Experience in traditional food:We are new in the market so has less knowledge and experience.2- Brand name is not as known as our competitors:Our competitors have developed market relations and people are loyal tothem. In this regard, our brand equity might be lower as compared to thecompetitors. That might be a disadvantage for us.

OPPORTUNITIESMarket is growing at tremendous rate so there is an awful opportunity forthe company to grow and enhance its revenues. Our opportunities to flourishin the market are:1- Attractive, peaceful and soothing environment:We will be providing our customer with the relaxation of mind, calmness ofsoul, unforgettable taste and attractive and pleasant environment that is notthere to our competitors.2- Price-conscious Customers:Our target market is largely composed of students which are inherently priceconscious. This fact provides us with an opportunity to set a low price for ourdeals in harmony to the economical behavior of the customers. Seizing thisopportunity is likely to earn us more customers and profit.3- Free Home Delivery:Our major competitors do not offer home-delivery service and even if theydo, it is within the 2 kilometers radius of the facility. We can exploit thisopportunity by providing city-wide home delivery service. Moreover, thecompetitors do not have any appropriate seating arrangement for the dine-incustomers.4- Goodwill:By the passage of time we will have goodwill in the market. This goodwill will attract more customers. This attraction will result in more sales. More sales will generate more profit. People want to be aware. People need more benefits.

Company's biggest threat is its competitors like:1 Karachi Paratha2 Liberty Parath etc.2- Economic Conditions and Govt. Polices:The threats faced by our business are almost the same as any other businesswho is new in the market. The basic threat is the Economic instability andchanging government policies of our country. This trend proves to be majorthreats for newly born businesses.3- Government taxes:As these days, Government is imposing heavy taxes on every industry andremoving subsidies, it might prove challenging for us to bear the burden ofthese heavy taxes.4- Price increase of raw material:Unexpected and sudden change in the prices of raw material can disturb ourpricing thus giving us a hard time.5- Bargaining power of customer:In Pakistan it is customary to bargain at prices. So it might also create someproblem to us.6- Other traditional items:Our core product face a threat in the form of other traditional desi productswhich are also valued by customers such as Biryani, Halwa Puri, Kabab andGol Gappay etc.

3.2.2: PriceBefore setting prices we have considered our goals & objectives behind ourpricing strategies.3.2.2.1: Pricing Goals To attain profit To increase profit gradually by maximizing our market share To increase our sales To become one of the big market leaders

3.2.2.2: Pricing ObjectivesThe above mentioned objectives underlie our pricing strategy.* Profit oriented:

- To achieve a target return- To maximize profit

* Sales oriented- To increase sale volume- To maintain or increase market share

* Status quo oriented

Page 16: _prattha Ghar - Marketing Plan

12

- To stabilize prices- To meet competitionThe main objective of every private organization is to achieve profit.Therefore, the company is mainly "profit oriented" but currently it is alsostriving to achieve better market share as compared to its competitor.Therefore, one can say that company is both profit and sales oriented.

3.2.2.3: Pricing StrategyThe customer’s perception of value is an important determinant of the pricecharged. Customers draw their own mental picture of what a product isworth. A product is more than a physical item; it also has psychologicalconnotations for the customer. The danger of using low price as a marketingtool is that the customer may feel that a low price is indicative ofcompromised quality. It is important when deciding on the price to be fullyaware of the brand and its integrity.So we will have psychological and value based pricing strategy. Asmentioned earlier we will offer high quality product as needed by the marketand offer value added features and services to differentiate our offers tosupport charging prices based on the value of the product.CHICKEN PRATTHA ROLLS
