INDUSTRY ANALYSIS
3.0 INTRODUCTION
The fruits industry has been on a rather high profit in Uganda, but, the culture of consuming fruit products on an individual basis in particular is gradually picking with in Uganda. This gives this nature of business a very high potential. Fruit farming and especially on an individual basis as recently in the last 15 years has not been highly developed since it requires a heavy capital outlay yet limited available financial support for such business in the hands of individual investors. This requires the entrepreneur to commit a portion of their own equity into the undertaking, which will be further facilitated by a Post Bank loan to enable boost the investment and capital structure of the farm.
Table1. Analysis of strength and weakness of our potential competitors.
| Competitors | Strength | Weaknesses |
| Kagodo Fruits growers | Ø Affordable prices Ø Diversification Ø Quality products Ø Location advantage Ø Good name advantage | Ø Inadequate capital Ø Poor management Ø Few customers |
| Biyinzika fruits fruit growers | Ø Adequate capital Ø Cheap labor force Ø Location advantage Ø Good name advantage | Ø Low quality products Ø Low product diversion Ø Less advertising |
| Kireka fruits fruit growers | Ø Adequate capital Ø Good reputation Ø Good quality products Ø Product diversion |
they have been in the industry for quite some time.
The competitors maintain their top level management and their top management and top level technology staff in an attempt to maintain the confidentiality of production methods of their products and this is achieved through good remuneration of their top management and good working condition. Their products legally exist on the market since they are tested and approved by the quality standard bodies like Uganda National Bureau of standards, International Standards Organization among others.
3.1.2 GENERAL COMPETITION WEAKNESS
The competitors rely mostly on the urban consumers putting no or less consideration onto peri-urban outskirt markets.
They have poor demand planning for their products
The competitor firms have always put less consideration on starting up their sources of utilities for example starting up corn gardens to reduce reliance on unreliable suppliers and to have an effective cost control for their firms.
The compression to the quality and cost utilities, our competitors charge a very high price which is justified by the thirst of high profits in small gestation periods and poor book keeping competences to curb the norm.
3.1 STRENGTH
- Quality products.
- Cheap labour.
- Affordable prices
- Good location
- Product diversity
- Supply in time
Weakness
- Inadequate capital
- Low market being new in the market
3.1.3 OPPORTUNITIES
Brian Fruit growers has identified several future opportunities from which it expects to take driver’s seat within the industry. Some of the identified opportunities may include but not limited to the under listed.
- Providing a variety of a full range of quality fruits among others on the market from which the customers can have choice. This is based on our objective of providing quality products.
- Favorable government policies. The taxes charged on the products in the industry are minimal in comparison to tariffs in other industries in addition to the simple legalities involved in the undertaking beside protection laws for local producers.
These will have an impact on the success or failure of Brian Fruit growers as a partnership undertaking and these have been identified as;
- Too many small scales competitors who provide low price and relatively low quality products.
- Unfavorable government policies such as payment of fees for transportation of corns and other equipment to and from the farms.
- Acquiring market, a substantial market is already occupied by a certain though negligible number of fruits farming.
3.2 CONSUMER’S PROFILE
The consumers of Brian Fruit growers will range from children to adults, low to high income earners, students, to non-students, the uneducated to educated, rural to urban settlers, homesteads to hotels and restaurants and wholesalers to retailers of fruit farm products. This will generally depend on their demand which has to be fulfilled in accordance with the vision and mission of the partnership.
3.3 STRATEGY IMPLEMENTATION
Brian will penetrate the market through frequent and aggressive advertising policies such as constant radio and Television adverts in all media houses, sponsoring for renown events such as PAM awards, musical launches, and other programs intended to help the needy. Brian has identified its market as busy hotels, restaurants, schools, bakeries and individuals among others in the region that mind about quality and treasure their life in addition to providing quality products. Brian will strive to ensure clientele loyalty as well as positive public and media support.
3.4 COMPETITIVE EDGE
Brian Fruit growers’ competitive edge will be provision of high quality products placing timely responses to the request of customers’ opinions and complements or complaints to enable the partnership fight unnecessary competition from small processors relative to the quality provided.
3.5 PEST ANALYSIS
The partnership will also analyze its external environment for which it has no control as analyzed below.
Political factors such as government regulation, policies and strategies, taxes business and industry. Government is trying to go into international treaties that are aimed at reducing consumption of genetically modified foodstuffs and actually in some countries they have banned while in others, strict measures of production are already in place thus it’s the onset of such regularities that the investment becomes risky and complex.
Economic factors such as movement in trade cycles, level of disposal incomes, interest rates and inflation which have a greater impact on the consumption patterns of the client for example with in a slum, a rational customer will find it easier to reduce consumption of poultry products but maintain the level of health and education services in the home which on the other hand has a negative impact on the investment though it would be better otherwise with in a boom.
Social factors such as aging consumer, increase in one parent families, attitude towards poultry products and culture for example in Buganda where women used not to eat chicken.
Technological factors may include changes in production methods, advancement in research and development in the production of better poultry products like eggs and chicken. This is in addition to creation and innovation of breeds that do not only have a shorter period to maturity but have a shorter gestation period too coupled with attainment of maximum weight desired by the customers.

There is increasing number of small-scale fruit fruit growers and this has led to high competition in the industry for the clients especially in this region. Therefore to develop and maintain our market shares, we will give our clients quality and timely delivery of our products at competitive prices i.e. minimizing queues and delays thus maximizing efficiency.
We might come to situations where the partnership has run out of cash especially with a fall in demand in comparison to the forecasted position. This will be handled by analysing and evaluating seasonal demand and having a clear budget projection. This will keep us in the business
Our competitors may decide to lower prices so as to take our customers. However the reason we are located is with people with demand for our products. On the border, very many business men and women trade in fruit products especially in passion fruit farming. This means that we shall maintain our quality good to the extent that our customers will not depend on the prices but quality of the product they purchase

Brian fruit growers Limited shall carry on its processes as its main headquarters in Misindye (Sonde) Mukono District.
Every process in the department system especially production will not exceed 2 months. This will help to reduce on wastage in the production section that may in reaction reduce on operating cost.
