CHAPPER 1: THEORICAL BASIS OF BUSINESS STRATEGY

1.1. The concept of business strategy and the role of business strategy

1.1.1. The concept of strategy and business strategy

The concept of strategy

The term comes from the word strategy Strategic in Greek means "commander" is used inthe military, refers to the science and art of military command. Today, the term strategy isused extensively in business and in life.

"Strategy is the art of building a solid competitive advantage to the defense," said MichaelPorter.

According to Johnson G. and Scholes K. (1999), "Strategy is the direction and scope of anorganization in the long term, in order to gain competitive advantage for the organizationthrough the format of its resources in a changing environment, to meet market demand andsatisfy the expectations of our stakeholders."

Business strategy

According to Alfred Chandler (Harvard University) "Strategy involves the determinationof basic long-term goals of the business, at the same time choose the way or course ofaction and the allocation of resources to accomplish that goal."

By Fred R. David "Business strategy is the means to achieve long-term goals."

In general, the definition of business strategy although there are differences in wording butcontained 03 following contents:

- The target business that wants to reach.

- Propose and select the solution support to achieve the goal.

- Deploy and allocation of resources to accomplish that goal.

Strategy is a set of goals and policies as well as the main plan to achieve these objectives,it is clear the company is or will carry out business activities, and active in any field.

Business strategy of a business is an overall program of action towards the realization ofthe goals of the business. Not to devise a strategy specifically how to achieve these goalsbecause it is a task of immense assistance programs, the strategy functions.

Strategy is to create a framework to guide thinking and actions.

Page 8: Capstone project report

1.1.2. The role of business strategy

Business strategy plays an important role for all businesses, specifically:

- Business strategy plays a decisive role for the existence and development of abusiness during the business, particularly in the global business stage for fiercecompetition. Business strategy is to help clearly see the business opportunity and risk inthe present and in the future since then, based on the potential of the business to deal withthe uncertainty of the market situation.

- Strategy is the way to avoid the error when stepping into the future, to helpbusinesses achieve their goals correctly and with better results thanks to the right target.

- Business strategy based on the analysis of the business environment factors, whichhelp businesses understand and evaluate the correctness and accuracy than existingcompetitors as well as potential competitors hidden in the future of the business, know theelements of the natural conditions, social, political influence how current and futurebusiness. Besides, the business strategy also helps businesses effectively used its existingresources and allocate them appropriately.

From these roles can show that the business strategy to help businesses determine theobjectives and tasks of the business enterprise and thus maximize your resources andcapture the market opportunity as well as receive know the risks in order to createsustainable competitive advantage increasingly for business.

1.1.3. Requirements for construction and implementation of business strategy

First, the business strategy is to achieve the purpose of increasing the power of businessand gain competitive advantage.

Second, the business strategy is to ensure the safety of the business enterprise.

Third, the business strategy must determine the scope, objectives and basic conditions toachieve the objective. The determination of the scope of business in the business strategyis to ensure that fixes the spread of resources, or avoid the use of not all resources.

Fourth, to predict the future of business environment, predicting how much accurate,more consistent business strategy much.

Fifth, to have a backup strategy; the reason to do so, is to execute business strategy in thefuture, but the future is always unknown. So, when building business strategies, must takeinto account the worst possibility that businesses may encounter. And in that situation, thestrategy will be replaced.

Sixth, to combine maturity with opportunities; business strategy is not ripe then surelybusinesses will fail. But there is seemingly paradoxically, a number of business strategiesfail because too ripe. The reason is easy to understand that due to perfective thought inbuilding strategy, it takes too much time in processing information, expect to get a perfectstrategy. That leads to the completion of construction and deployment strategy, the lost

Page 9: Capstone project report

opportunities. So when the business strategy to distinguish between what is ideal strategyand what is the perfective strategy.

1.2. The process of business strategy formulation

Strategic Planning is the first stage, is crucial in the process of strategic management. Thisphase is formed to establish strategic business tasks, investigations to determine theopportunities and threats from the external environment and the strong and weak pointsnow, which set out the long term and choose between alternative strategies. The differencebetween strategic planning and strategic management is strategic management includingthe implementation and evaluation strategies.

The strategic planning is done by a closed process, this step of the process is always aclose relationship and complement each other. There have been many studies to determinethe strategic planning process, in the context of this thesis, the author uses the strategyformulation process based on the model of Fred R. David, including the following:

1.2.1. Step 01: Analyze external environments

System point of view, the existence of the business is in a certain environment, thisenvironment is always changing with the conditions of social tourism and business. Sowhat is environment of a business? These are the factors, forces, institutions locatedoutside of the business always have impact on the survival and development ofenterprises.

Organization's environment can be divided into two levels: the macro environment (alsoknown as the general environment) and micro environment (or a particular environment).

Macro environment affects all sectors of business, but not necessarily in a certain ways.Micro-environment is defined for a specific industry, with all businesses in the sectoraffected by the micro-environment in the industry. And when analyzing the influence ofthe environment, we need to identify two factors: one is the complexity of theenvironment is characterized by a variety of factors that affect the organization's efforts.Increasingly complex environment, the more difficult it is to make effective decisions.Second, the dynamics of the environment, including variations related to environmentalconditions.

1.2.1.1. Macrco environment analysis

Macro environment is composed of the following main factors: economics, politics, lawand government, culture, society, nature, science, and technology. The content of theseelements can point as follows:

- The economic factors: Through impact factors: economic growth, interest rates, thestage of the economic cycle, fiscal and monetary policies, exchange rates, inflationlevels, foreign investment, etc... have great influence on the business of the enterprise.

- Legal-political factors: Political and legal factors have a more significant impact onbusiness operations, including: a system of government policy perspective, the current

Page 10: Capstone project report

legal system, the trend of diplomation of government, the political developments in thecountry, the region and the world. Businesses must comply with the provisions of thetax law, lending, labor safety, insurance policies, pricing, advertising, where is thelocation of plant and environmental protection

- The social-cultural factors: The social-cultural environment including norms andvalues are accepted and respected by a society or a particular culture. The impact of thesocio-cultural factors are often more subtle and long-term compared to other factors,sometimes difficult to identify. However, the socio-cultural environment has stronginfluence on the business activities, represented by the following factors: the conceptof aesthetics, ethics, lifestyle, occupation; customs, customs and traditions; social carepriorities; awareness, education of society.

- The natural element: Natural factors including: geographic location, climate,landscape, land, river and sea, the mineral resources in the ground, sea forest resources,the purity of the water environment, air ... their impact on policy decisions in businesshas long been recognized business. In many cases, the natural conditions are a veryimportant factor to form the competitive advantage of products and services. Theproblem of environmental pollution, poor product quality, waste of resources, alongwith the growing demand for limited resources forcing businesses to change theirdecisions and measures related activities.

- Elements of science and technology: Characterized by the development of scientificand technical progress, the advent of new technologies can create new products withsuperior features, shorten the product life. This is a very active element, filled withopportunities and threats to the business.

This is because the elements of the general environment, macroeconomic factorstypically affect all types of businesses, including factors directly impact on this business,but little impact on business other. Therefore, this is the first general factor that businessneeds analysis to identify the factors that will directly impact the business, through whichto identify opportunities and risks affecting the operations of their business.

1.2.1.2. Micro environment analysis

Micro environment consists of the factors in the industry and are the external factors forenterprises, determine the nature and extent of competition in the business industry.According to Michael Porter, the micro environment of the enterprise is made up of fivebasic elements: competitors, buyers, suppliers, potential new competitors and substitutes.

Page 11: Capstone project report

Figure 1 Micro-environment analysis- five forces model of Michael E. Porter

The competitors

This pressure is often a direct threat to the business, as the pressure of competitionbetween businesses on the rise, the more threatening position and the existence of theenterprise.

The customer

Customers are the most important part of the business; customer loyalty is a majoradvantage of the business. The trust of customers for business can be the most valuableasset for businesses. Credibility is achieved by enterprises that meet customer needs andtastes better than other businesses.

The suppliers

The company must always be associated with the business offers (suppliers) to providedifferent resources such as raw materials, equipment, labor, capital, etc. The provider maycause a pressure in the operation of a business. So the research to understand who providesresources for businesses is not to be missed in the process of environmental research.

Suppliers of materials, equipment with advantage could profit by increasing prices,reducing product quality or reduce the level of service associated with it, so analysisprovider is necessary. The provision of financial is a factor to ensure short-term and long-term loans in each period of the business.

The new potential competitors

For new players to participate in the business may be factors that reduce the profitabilityof their business due to put into operation new production capacity, with the desire to gainmarket share and the necessary resources.

Page 12: Capstone project report

Although not always businesses also face new potential competitors, but the integrationrisk of new competitors in the industry has influenced also affect business strategy.Besides, the protection of competitive positions in business including the maintenance ofthe legal barriers to prevent intrusion from outside is necessary. These barriers are: theadvantage due to large-scale production, product diversification, requires large financialresources, cost advantages that competitors can not create. Another barrier to prevent theentry of new potential competitors is strong resisting of the standing organizations.

The alternative products

Pressure due to substitute products limits the potential profit of the industry due to thehigh rates controlled. If you do not pay attention to the potential replacement products,enterprises should narrow market. Therefore, businesses are constantly researching andchecking the potential replacement items.

The majority of alternative products is a result of the technology boom. Want to succeed,businesses need to pay attention and devote resources to develop or apply newtechnologies to their strategies.

1.2.2. Step 02: Internal environment analysis

Every organization has its strengths and weaknesses in certain business sectors. The innerstrengths and weaknesses with external opportunities and threats, and clear tasks that arethe basic points should be considered when setting goals and strategies of business.

The objectives and strategies are designed to take advantage of the strengths andovercome the weaknesses inside - the factors that managers can control. In a business itelfthat includes all elements and systems inside of it, to try to analyze carefully the internalfactors in order to identify their advantages and disadvantages; on that basis, measures topromote the advantages and reduce disadvantages to achieve maximum advantage. Theinternal factors mainly include functional areas such as: human resources, research anddevelopment, production, finance and accounting, marketing and leadership, etc...

To understand the significance of the activities of the business, the value chain need to beanalyzed to determine which activities create value for customers, so that the focus onbuilding activities to create advantage for business.

Page 13: Capstone project report

Figure 2 The value chain model of Michael E. Porter

1.2.3. Step 03: Determine missions and objectives

Missions

The mission of the enterprise is a statement of long-term value of the businessresponsibilities, beliefs and ideas of the participants in the organization. The determinationof the mission is essential to set goals and formulating strategies in an effective manner.

Objectives

The term "target" refers to specific criteria or results to be achieved in the future business.Objectives usually reflect expected state can be done and should be done at a time or aftera certain time.

Usually the target now divided into two types of short-term goals and long term goals.Short-term goals have to be very specific and detailed results in a decision cycle. Short-term goals are usually a year. The long-term goal is the desired results set out in arelatively long period of time.

Goal should be set properly because it is crucial in making the business strategy. Commongoals must meet the following criteria:

- The specific objectives.

- The flexibility of the target.

- The measureability of the target.

- The feasibility of the target.

Page 14: Capstone project report

- Consistency of objectives.

- Acceptability of goals.

- The time line of the target.

1.2.4. Step 04: Formation strategies of business

Strategic management process consists of three phases:

Phase of strategy formation

This is the first stage, its a foundation and play a very important role in the whole processof strategic management. In this phase should define the vision, missions andorganization's strategic objectives, development tasks, identify opportunities and threats tothe organization from the outside, showing the strengths and weaknesses inside, settinglong-term objectives, generating alternative strategies and select specific strategies topursue.

Implementation strategy phase, or called action stage of strategic management:

This phase is to mobilize resources to implement the strategy has been set up. Includingthe setting of annual objectives, policy making, and resource allocation to establishstrategies can be implemented. This period is often considered the most difficult stage inthe strategic management process. The implementation of the strategy requires discipline,dedication and self-sacrifice of the individual.

The strategic review stage: Monitoring and review the results of activities and strategicimplementations; including measurement to determine the performance of individuals andorganizations, including the corrective actions needed.

Page 15: Capstone project report

All administrators and staff at all levels in the organization, not just the owner or seniorexecutive officer, must accossiated with activities of implement and evaluate strategies;the participation is crucial to achieve adherence to the necessary changes.

1.2.5. Step 05: Selecting optimal strategies

Due to the nature of the long-term strategy is a matter of strategy selection is crucial forthe future of the business. The strategy choice of the enterprise whether on the basis ofintuition or analysis must be based on the actual situation of the enterprise and thedevelopment trend in the future. Therefore, a strategy chosen must meet the followingrequirements: in accordance with the mission and business objectives that are pursued;avoid shock to the process of business operations; consistent with resource capabilities ofthe business.

The choice of the optimal strategy is done by the quantitative strategic planning matrix(QSPM). By the analysis of the results of external elements matrix, the internal elementsmatrix, competitive profile matrix and especially the SWOT matrix; QSPM allowsevaluating the specific advantages of each strategies in the same comparison group,allowing administrators to choose the best strategy for the business.

1.3. The levels of strategy management and type of strategies

Strategic management can occur at many different levels in the organization. Usually thereare three basic levels of strategies:

1.3.1. Corporate level strategy

It’s a pattern of decisions in a company, it identifies and defines the purpose, theobjectives of the company, identify the business operations which the company pursued,create policies and design the basic plan to achieve the objectives of the company.

In an organization with the size and the level of diversity, "corporate strategy" is oftenapplied to the entire enterprise. Company strategy set out to identify the business activitiesin which the company will compete and distribute resources between business activities.

Company strategy related to the overall objectives and the expected size of the business,towards the basic long-term goals, development orientation of the organization. By FredR. David, strategies for companies with 14 basic strategy, divided into four groups:

- Integration strategy group, including three strategies: Forward integration strategy,backward integration strategy, and horizontal integration strategy. The strategy of thisgroup allows companies to gain control over distributors and competitors.

- Intensive strategy group, consisting of three strategies: market penetration, marketdevelopment and product development. Characteristics of these strategies requirefocused efforts to improve the company's competitive position with existing products.

- Business expanding strategy group, including three strategies: concentricdiversification activities, horizontal diversification activities and diversify the blocktype of activities.

Page 16: Capstone project report

- Other strategy group such as joint ventures, downsizing operations, cut operating,liquidation or synthetic.

1.3.2. Business units level strategy

Business strategy is planed in order to determine the selection of specific products ormarkets for its own business operation, and it determine how the company will competewith a business with the known position of the company itself among its competition.

Strategic business units of the business to determine how each business unit will try tocomplete its goal to contribute to the completion of the company target. If the company isthe industry, the business unit level strategy can be considered as company-level strategy

1.3.3. Funtional units level strategy

Strategic level functional (or operational strategy) is a strategy of the functional parts ofthe organization (R & D, production, marketing, finance, ...) This strategy helps improve,enhance operational efficiency in the company, helping business strategy, corporate levelstrategy implementation effectively.

Thus the strategies of three basic levels are not independent but have close relationshipwith each other. Strategic level is a precondition for lower-level strategy, and subordinatestrategy should adapt to superior strategy then process of implementation strategy has theability to be successful and effective.

In addition to these three basic levels of strategy also have a global strategy, to enter andcompete in the global environment, businesses can use four basic strategies:

- Multinational strategy (multidomestic)

- International Strategy (international)

- Global Strategy (global)

- Transnational strategy (transational)

In summary:

Building business strategy plays a very important role for any business to survive andimprove competitive position in the fiercely competitive market like today, especially onthe livestock feed market. The study of theoretical in general about business strategy tohelp businesses to get a comprehensive view of the factors impact and affect to thebusiness, as the basic platform for the construction of proper orientation, feasibilitystrategic planning and propose appropriate solutions.

Vietnam is a potential agricultural country in Asia and the world. Vietnam is the world'ssecond largest exporter of rice, coffee, cashew, rubber and a world leader in the export ofpepper. Although the livestock industry didn’t contribute much foreign currency and notreally outstanding but it doesn’t mean no advantage in the process of economicrestructuring.

Table 7 Montetary indicators 2012-2015

With the economic development, the consumers needs of food is more and more growing,but livestock industry is still not enough to meet domestic demand. Do not really have anew approach, high percentage of livestock traditionally with features as small, scattered,unfocused number large enough to become a commodity product, not the best quality, donot focus on market planning and accounting for economic efficiency. This farmingmethod has many disadvantages, but is the essential source of income to improve livingstandards of the poor. According to the estimation of experts, income from livestockindustry will be 70% of the income of the poor.

Ten years ago, the demand for meat in Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City is 500 tons / day.Today, the daily consumption in HCM is around 800 tons - 1,000 tons, Hanoi needs 300tons / day. Only pork, annually two cities need nearly 13 million tons equivalent to 7million - 10 million pigs with weight 100kg/pig, not to mention the needs of 70 millionpeople in different regions of the country. Obviously, if you do not convert livestocktranditional methods towards modern method applications, will not meet the demand ofdomestic consumption and export.

With the economic conditions mentioned above, we believe that the need of the livestockindustry is extremely large and very important for the development of the Vietnameseeconomy.

2.2.1.2. Political - Legal

Livestock really is one of the important methods contribute to poverty alleviation in ruralareas. However, how do farmers access to capital, the best application of the achievementsof science and technology, contributing to the development of animal husbandry in thedirection of industrialization and modernization is a problem with more urgent.

In recent years, many policies of the Party and the Government on economic development,promote industrialization, modernization of agriculture and rural development, structuraltransformation of plants and animals, went into real life, contributing to the developmentof the livestock sector. A new mode of production towards sustainable goods in thelivestock industry is gradually formed.

Farmer excited Decision No. 225/1999/QD-TTg dated 10-12-1999 and Decision17/2006/QD-TTg dated 29-01-2007 of the Prime Minister on the variety program, animalsand forest trees by 2010. Series of farm cow milk, pigs goods, goat, chicken, duck ... hasflourished. Extension system from the central to the local level has been graduallypopularized new advances on the same techniques, so that technical progress for housing

Page 26: Capstone project report

in accordance with the new technology, new breeds of livestock has people applied,millions of households out of poverty alleviation.

Approved by Decision of the Government of Livestock Development to 2020, "livestockwill be fundamental changes in the direction of industrial productivity, quality, efficiencyand competitiveness; translated controldiseases and hygiene and food safety; meet foodneeds for domestic consumption and export-oriented "," increase the proportion oflivestock in agriculture: 32% by 2010; 38%in 2015 and 42% in 2020 ". All resolutions anddirectives of the Party and the State stand firm to help the livestock industry have a legalbasis to develop during the integration.

2.2.1.3. Social culture – Population

Vietnam's population is increasing year by year, an average of 1% per year. Till now thereare currently about 89 million people. Population along with people's lives have beenimproved, enhanced educational level. Spend more structure there is a change in thestandard of living and social influence. In addition to food, clothing, housing and morepeople pay more attention to other issues such as: education, culture, entertainment, trafficand especially health. So the demand for meat consumption also increased. Especially inlarge cities, under the impact of economic growth problems of nutrition in your diet ismore interested. On the other hand with the rapid population growth of the VN test animalneeds very urgent, especially pig pork consumption habits of the Vietnamese accountingfor 46% of the consumption of meat.

2.2.1.4. Science – Technology

So far, the Vietnamese livestock industry itself does not have the production modelof community to be competitive with foreign companies in Vietnam and other countriesaround the world. In the legal framework of macro policy is not enough clarity about theproduct chain closed (from livestock for meat, dairy, eggs, food, food protein, foodsupplements, equipment barn animal husbandry, veterinary medicine, industrialslaughtering, meat processing, dairy industry and market services).

Not have a long-term policy and planning for the training of scientific and technicalstaff as well as technical subjects synchronous breeding, biotechnology, equipment,processing, veterinary ... qualified expertise. Actually started with the so down onintensive technical staff, dedicated to the craft not only in livestock but also in many otherareas as livestock development.

Investment in scientific research is spread, the research is not comprehensive andlong-term; yet for improving response at each stage of production and lack of continuity;technical solutions new, specific applications for the development of production; lack ofspecific ecological zones, economic zones in the study to develop appropriate; manysubjects non-economic factors, is difficult to apply to production.

Our livestock industry is still a small livestock, livestock households with highpercnetage rate and lack of planning, not sustainable development. According to datapublished by the Department of Animal Husbandry, in 2010 there were 8.5 million

Page 27: Capstone project report

households livestock activities but only 70% of these are the livestock barn, the rest arefree ranging. Currently there are over 20,809 the farm, SPCN industry, in which pigsaccount for 45 - 50% of poultry from 30 - 35%, livestock food industry reached 53.8%.

Meanwhile, the level of the backward people's livestock productivity is not highwith high price. Economic experts said that the cost in Vietnam is now too high, morethan 20% compared to other countries in the region, while the country also cost more than20% compared to other countries with animal aquaculture development. This is due toincrease in transport costs, high interest rates, yield low livestock farmers, especially highfeed prices.

2.2.1.5. Global environment

Promote strong internal resources, plus more diversified cooperation with the worldto exchange experiences and learn from friends in the trend of globalization, theintegration extensive livestock industry will certainly become an industryimportant fact inthe not too distant future.

Vietnam has joined the AAAP organization, association of producers in Asia andAustralia was established in 1980, since 1992 with the goal of exchanging newinformation on animal science, introduced the processtechnology, new products forlivestock.

Besides these advantages, the integration with the world can bring us manychallenges for the livestock sector to import food from abroad into Vietnam. For example,in early 2008, before the heavy losses of livestock due to disease and malaria, thegovernment has decided to import tax cut of pork, chicken from 30% to 20% and 12% tocover shortage of food supply in the country. However, only a few months later, theimported meat was flooding the market and causing heavy losses to farmers.

The lesson of 2008 is that tax worries import more livestock products cut from the2012 high. Specifically, the meat of bovine animals decreased from 20% to 14%, frozenpork from 30% to 15%, meat processing from 40% to 22% ... Mr. Nguyen Dang Vang,former director of the Animal Husbandry Department, said that the tax on not decrease butalso potential risks. Former Director of the Institute of Commercial Research, Prof. Dr.Nguyen Van Nam noted, if not urgent measures to promote animal husbandry, improvingthe competitiveness of the livestock products, we risk losing their home is being.

The reduction of the livestock products under WTO commitments is force majeure,in addition to boosting industrial production focus, improve farming technology -according to Prof. Dr. Nguyen Van Nam, we have the right to do and should do is to setthe technical barriers. However, to this point, according to the survey, not many criteria,standards of food safety and hygiene-product strong enough to prevent, livestock poriducspoor quality flow into our country.

According to the Economic Research Institute of Central, after more than fouryears of joining the WTO, Vietnam's agricultural production was growth of only 5-6% /year, in 2009 only 3.5%. Although there are positive signs from the value of agriculturalexports of VN increased in 4 years, especially some products have a competitive

Page 28: Capstone project report

advantage, such as rice, coffee, rubber, cashew nuts, pepper, vegetables, seafood ... butproduction capacity and competitive of these products overwhelmed, such as the livestockproducts. Noq all main exported products are the threshold, can not increase the area,productivity increased only in moderation. Many items have to face the risk of lack of rawmaterials such as fish, nuts, wood ... Each year Vietnam has to import nearly 100%soybean oil (about 2-2.5 million tons / year), 1 million tons of corn, 2.5-3 million tonnesof rice bran ... for processing feed.

2.2.2. Micro environment

2.2.2.1. Customer

When considering the production of animal feed business briefly, we can see thatthe dealer is their most important customers, the buying rate at about 41% of the totalvolume of food, followed bythe reseller to buy 26%, other enterprises buy 16% and 12%of industrial farms. The small farmers are not regular customers of the feed businessbecause they only buy 5% of the total food.

According to the scale of production, sales strategy small business is completelydifferent from medium and large enterprises. Small businesses tend to diversify theiraudience, selling to dealers, small businesses and farms, while large and medium-sizedbusinesses primarily sell products to dealers. In general, the larger the scale of production,the percentage of food sold to dealers as high and the proportion of sales to the lowersmall farms.

For current customers of Evialis VN are distributors and farms with 90% ofdistributors and 10% farms. With the current animal model, the distribution is still themain channel of the feed into the hands of farmers.But in the future, when the smallanimal model transfer to concentrated animal model (model farms), farm market segmentwill increase.

Although Evialis VN only distribute products directly to the distributors level I, butthe company is responsible for developping market for distributors level I by supportingtechnical support to secondary distributors and small farms that are agent of distributorlevel I. Currently, system-level agent I of Evialis Vietnam was opened in the majority ofdistricts in the provinces of farms.

Different customers will have different needs for products. With the distributorslevel I, price and sales policies are more important than product quality factors. However,product quality is an important factor to keep customers, because if the product quality isnot good, even if the sale price and good sales policies to some farmers will not use thisproduct. Anh with large farms, the quality of products is top priority.

2.2.2.2. Competitor

Well understanding about a competitor is an important requirement for thedevelopment of the company's business strategy. At present, our country has 233 feedfactory, of which 58 (24.9%) of the foreign-invested companies (including 100% foreign-owned companies and joint ventures). Industrial feed market share of some leading

Page 29: Capstone project report

foreign companies such as CP Vietnam accounts for about 18.1%, Pronco 8.8%, Cargill is7.1%, and EH is 5% (Source: Department of Livestock).

According to our assessment, so far the company with 100% foreign investmentholds 65-70% market share. Most corporations producing the world's second most foodhas been present in Vietnam; CP Group (Thailand); Cargill (USA), NewHope (China) ...Thanks to their influence, Vietnamese enterprises also studied the method of production,sales, market ... so since 1995 and is now a private company and a specialized stock feedbusiness success as the: VINA company, Drive burned ... But the small market share ofthe Vietnamese only 20-30%. The management of VN enterprices is not good, lack ofcapital, lack of technology, not strong enough to compete with 100% foreign investmentcompany.

Some of the strengths and weaknesses of the competitors:

Company Strenth Weak

C.P- Breeding animal- Processing program- Competitive Price

- No focus on free market- Limitation of credit

Cargill- Brands- Good quality- Good sales policies

- No breeding animal

Proconco- Brand goes to the heart- Stable quality- Power distribution system

Vina - Quite quality- Domestic Brand- No breeding animal

Table 8 The strengths and weekness of competitors

2.2.2.3. Vendor

Dependence on raw materials for the production of aimal feed is one of thechallenges that the livestock industry is facing. Reduced dependence on imported rawmaterials, toward autonomy raw materials for industry is an expectation of our agriculture.Raw material needs are increasing, while today 70% of the raw material that we have toimport.

Annual the import value is arround $ 2 billion of feed raw materials. In which,nearly a million tons of corn; circuit under a million tons of wheat, shot glasses bran,vegetable oil, animal fat; 2-2.5 million tons of soybean meal from the U.S., India,Argentina, Brazil...; hundreds of thousands of tons of fish meal from Peru, Chile, Mexico,

Page 30: Capstone project report

etc.; bone Meal meat from Hungary, Poland, maté; Enter hundred thousand ton DCPminerals from Yunnan China. Additional food additives, types of minerals, vitamins,aroma, color, flavor ... collectively premix are not be manufactured, imported from allcontinents, 40 countries and territories around the world.In recent, one of hot problems that livestock faces tending to increase the price of animalfeed. Large dependence on imported raw materials such as soybeans and corn, high tariffsand low productivity of this material is considered to be the cause of the domestic feedprices rise. Price feed industry in Vietnam is about 10-15% higher than other countries inthe region such as Thailand and China. Vietnam imports an estimated 20-30% of thevolume of raw materials used for production of animal feed, equivalent to about 45% ofthe total value of raw materials.

InVivo NSA, the parent company of Evialis VN, has agribusiness operations in theworld, so Evialis Vietnam has good relationships with the major supplier of agriculturalproducts and the prestige of the world such as Cargill, Bunge, Scoular,Dubai oil milk,Adani ... so always ensure quantity and quality of raw materials according to the needs ofthe company. Premix is a vantage point of Evialis the VN because InVivo NSA also hasmanufacturing and trading premix acitvity. Therfore, premix is not a matter of concern ofEvialis Vietnam.

2.2.2.4. Substitutive products

With the increase in the price of animal feed led to the increase in the price of meatas well as consumer fears about food safety issues in the livestock and poultry (blue earpig disease, foot and mouth disease anda number of companies produce animal feed use ofgrowth) has made consumers think of alternative products such as shrimp, fish and moreimported products.

With the goal of avoiding loss of consumer confidence for pork, the state has issueda circular 33/2012/TT-BNNPTNT about hygiene regulation, ensure food safety for theestablishmentmeat and edible by-products from animals treated in the form of fresh food.5 requirements for the conditions and duration of storage of meat and by-productsregulations: "Do not use a chemical to preserve meat and fresh products. And meatproducts stored at room temperature only sold within 8 hours after slaughter. Meat and by-products from the slaughter be stored at 0-5 degrees C only sold within 72 hours afterslaughter. For products is the stomach, small intestine and large intestine stored at 0-5degrees C only on sale for 24 hours after slaughter.

If we do not solve the problem of pricing and food safety, meat market fades intoalternative products such as shrimp, fish and meat products imported from abroad.

2.2.2.5. Potential competitors

Although the livestock sector in the country is difficult, but the field of investmentin production of animal feed has attracted many investors because demand for animal feedin the country remains high and tends toincrease in the future.

Page 31: Capstone project report

Feed industry in Vietnam is still many opportunities to grow as the current productioncapacity to meet half of the demand.However, the transformation of this potential intogrowth and profit is very difficult, especially with the domestic manufacturer.

When developing the livestock sector development strategy, the Ministry ofAgriculture and Rural Development estimates that by 2015, the demand for animal feed(feed) of Vietnam around 18-20 million tonnes, and will rise to 25-26 million tonnes by2020. Domestic supply shortfall close to current production capacity can be viewed as avery good opportunity for investment and development of feed production in Vietnam.

Some feed companies joined markets:

- On 20/10/2011 Co. Ltd feed Kyodo Sojitz has formally held the groundbreakingceremony Plant Project SX feed animal capacity 200.000tone/year to 3.34 hectares inIndustrial Thinh Phat. The project is expected to formally put into operation in early 2013.Project SX plant fodder investment cooperation between the two big groups of JapaneseSojitz and Kyodo corporation with $ 24 million invested.

- On 11/11/2010 at Dong Van Industrial Zone, Ha Nam. Manufacturing And TradingCorporation Complete Yang held the opening ceremony of the plant feed brands THAIWAY.

- On 8/9/2011, Tongwei Group (China) officially celebrated the inauguration of LtdTongwei Hai Duong in industrial way Cam Giang District, Hai Duong Province,specializes in manufacturing and sales of the product linefeed for pigs, chickens, ducks;using equipment and advanced production technology world. The company has a totalinvestment of $ 10 million, the plant's design capacity of 200,000 tons / year.

Because of late joined in the market, new feed companies have difficulties insetting up the big dealers with sales of over 100 tons per month. So how the business ofthe new company is aimed at secondary agent in the distribution of other companies andtake them to an agent of the company I own, this is also voluntary response expectationlevel I want to become an agent with incentives in the sales policy of the agent when levelI can not act as agent of the company that they are acting as agents II for failing to meetsales as needs of these companies.

With the way this has caused difficulties for Evialis Vietnam in strengthening anddeveloping its market. However, with good quality and stable, Evialis Vietnam still firmlysustainable development and relatively good image in the animal feed market in Vietnam.

Table 10 Competitor Profile Matrix

Not to mention the big rivals such as CP, Cargill or Proconco, picture competition ofEvialis Vietnam also pretty good compared to the remaining competitors in the market.This is the basis for the Group's continued investment in Vietnam with the opening ofmore and more the place of business of the company in the market.

2.3. Internal environment analysis

2.3.1. Internal environment

2.3.1.1. Management abilityWith more than 10 years of experience in the field of animal feed in Vietnam, the

team leader of Evialis VN has a deep understanding of the animal feed market as well asthe needs of the dealers and producers feed for animal feed products in order to developappropriate policies for the development of the market.

As foreign companies operating in the Vietnamese market, the company's policy isto work within the framework of Vietnamese laws, not to rise to the tax fraud cases as wellas other provisions of law. So Evialis $ is always a good image in the eyes of theauthorities.

On the other hand, with links to the Institute of Animal Husbandry for theestablishment of the company LD GUYOMARCH - Powered has created the political andeconomic relationship to the board in order to get the information in time to changepolicyof the state to make strategic decisions for the company to change this policy.

2.3.1.2. Financial capacityIn terms of production scale, we can see large scale enterprises tend to agents debt,

slow pay more. However, it should be noted that although businesses say they can let thecustomer defaults, late payment, but the business market feed current late payment methodis not universally processing of large enterprises for customers.

Page 34: Capstone project report

It should be noted that other services, such as commissions, discounts to resellers andmany large and medium-sized enterprises provide more than small businesses. This resultmay reflect the advantages of large-scale capital firms than small businesses.

For the animal feed market, Evialis VN debt does not advocate for many customersthat the company policy discount to customers for their sales to compete with otherbusinesses in addition toimprove the quality of products to attract consumers of livestock.Capital of the enterprise is used for raw material procurement strategy and development ofaquatic food market is facing many difficulties today.

In the current difficult economic conditions, the company promoting theprocurement of raw materials to stabilize the purchase price of raw materials and limit thevolatility of raw material prices on the market for that financial capacityof the company isstrong enough to develop the market and expand the company's investment projects in thefuture as new factory in Dong Thap, boring new plant in Henan, as well as plans to build afactorypremix production and veterinary medicine in the future.

2.3.1.3. Human resource managementUp till now, Evialis VN 700 in labor that labor accounts for 81.67% and Female

workers account for 18.33% and professional workers accounting for more than 70%.Themajority of employees are under 40 years of age, suggesting that human resources ofEvialis VN is a team of young workers should be more ambitious and district heat, thiswill be the foundation for the future development of the company.Evialis Vietnam is a subsidiary corporation of InVivo NSA, a large group of France andEurope should also attracted many experts around the world such as France, Thailand,Mexico, Philippines. These experts have contributed a lot to the success of the currentEvialis VN.

Evialis Vietnam always considers human resources as one of the competitiveadvantages of the company should have had a lot of policies to retain and motivateworkers to work in order to contribute to the development of the company. Policies suchas: create advancement opportunities for employees, employee training plan for thelocation planning, accident insurance 24/24, health insurance has been been deployed inEvialis Vietnam.

business. Picture of the livestock sector in Vietnam today in terms of technicalbackwardness, limited funds, macroeconomic policies have not stimulated thedevelopment of the livestock industry, environmental pollution, rampant disease, as role ofR & D is increasingly important for the development of the business.Picture of the livestock Vietnam today, solutions as well as the ambition of the researchand development department of Evialis $ towards ecological farming model with the useof herbs in animal husbandry to replace antibiotics and additives in animal feed because inthe U.S. there are more than 20,000 species of animals, plants, insects .. shall beconsidered as a medicine.

2.3.1.6. Marketing and communication

Advice on nutrition and veterinary service are two main businesses feed providedto the agent. In terms of ownership, foreign firms tend to offer two services more thandomestic enterprises, but distribution services, transportation not many foreign companiesprovided by the domestic enterprises. This may be due to two groups of firms withdifferent customers. For customers of foreign enterprises are major dealers and farms, theyhave their own means of transport should therefore foreign firms focused on advisoryservices on pet nutrition and veterinary to them.

In conclusion we can see that larger businesses sell their products to larger agentsand dealers have their own means of transport. Small businesses are less likely to provideextension materials for agents than medium and large enterprises.Not outside the rules above, Evialis has established two technical advisory center and petnutrition in Dong Nai and Can Tho to support, advise and provide the knowledge andtechnical application of animal new culture for its customers.Besides, the company alsoset up a technical team to organize seminars to advise and disseminate technicalknowledge as well as raising the customer, disease treatment and support if anyborn at thebreeding sites of customers.

2.3.1.7. Information systemInternet is the small and medium enterprises selected as the most important source

of information on prices of raw materials, while the majority of large enterprises assuppliers is the most important source for large companieshave good relationships withsuppliers easy access to information on the status of raw material prices over the mediumand small companies. In terms of price and product market, about a half-scale businessesin the agency considered the most important source, followed by businesses producinganimal feed. For the price of raw materials, Evialis VN support from corporations andaffiliates around the world to provide the price and information analysis future price trendsof raw materials. At the same time based on the Group's business relationships andbranches of the same system in the world, Evialis VN easily get more information aboutthe changes in the raw materials market. Based on the above factors help for Evialis VNeasy solutions for strategic purchasing of raw materials.

In terms of information on regulations, laws, most businesses consideredinformation from government agencies is the most important source, especially for large

Page 37: Capstone project report

enterprises. Newspapers seem to be more important for small businesses versus largebusinesses. An advantage for Evialis $ in access to information on regulations and laws inthe livestock sector is headquartered company's first joint venture with the Institute forLivestock Company was established LD Guyoamrc'h - VCN and in the many of whom aremanagement staff of the Institute of Animal Husbandry. Thus the information about therules or the rules of the livestock sector is Evialis VN approach quickly and accurately.

Have a common middle-scale enterprises in the role of bank credit as a source ofinformation most important. All businesses in small and large groups as the Internet is thesecond most important source of credit information. Evialis Vietnam is no exception inaccess to credit information.

Personal relationships is considered to be the most important source of informationabout the feed formula. However, small businesses depend on this much-scale enterprises.Vietnam Animal Feed Association is considered the most important provider ofinformation about the feed and this is the second most important source of information forsmall businesses. A large percentage of businesses mentioned their most important sourceof information about the feed is from the parent company, hiring or use their ownknowledge. Evialis VN affiliated company of InVivo NSA (France) should also receiveinformation on formula feeding from the parent company. With the investment of researchquality formula from the branches around the world and experience of the group, the newformula feed is converted to a fast for the whole system in the world to deal withcontinuous variation of the raw materials market.

2.3.2. Analysis value chain of Evialis VN

2.3.2.1. Primary activities

Inbound logistics

InVivo NSA is the leading international experts in the field of pet nutrition andhealth, always at the forefront of innovation and quality management daily and maintainedsince the operation so far. For Evialis Vietnam too, the quality is not that the benefits andcosts is an important factor in the success.For products to better meet the expectations ofcustomers, distributors...

- To ensure the quality and stability of the input, as this is the main ingredient in theproduct.

- Selecting the best input- Ensure ability traceability from supplier until the product is delivered to the market.The quality control of raw materials to be carried out according to the following process:

- The first important step is to determine if our suppliers can meet the quality standardsof content that we set out in the contract. Once fully tested, we classify suppliers intothree levels according to their confidence level (+ + / +, + / -, -), and mainly work withsuppliers the first two items.

- Assessment of sensory and rational analysis, compliance with our form, rapid test, testsamples for analysis in the laboratory (physical, chemical and bacterial), samplestorage.

Page 38: Capstone project report

- Strict compliance with the sampling process have been identified.- Lots of raw materials put into use only when approved by the quality control

department.

Operation

Production process of Evialis VN always be tightly controlled:

- Check the particle size, smell, color after grinding.- Check the uniformity of mixture of materials.- Monitor and record the votes production of vapor pressure, humidity and temperature

in the molding process.- Check the physical surface: bolus stiffness, durability.- Taking samples at different stages of the production process.- Compliance with stringent regulations sampling the product as regulation.- Storage samples for three months in a library.

Outbound logictics

Distribution services, transportation not many foreign companies provide domesticenterprises.This may be due to two groups of firms with different customers. Forcustomers of foreign enterprises are major dealers and farms, they have their own meansof transport should therefore foreign firms focused on advisory services on pet nutritionand veterinary to them.

In conclusion we can see that the large-scale enterprises sell their products to majordealers and agents have their own means of transport. Small businesses are less likely toprovide extension materials for agents than medium and large enterprises.

Marketing and Sales

Channel distributor of Evialis Vietnam is agent system and the farms with 90% ofdistributors and 10% of farms. With the current animal model, the distribution is still themain channel of the feed into the hands of farmers.But in the future, when the smallanimal model transfer to concentrated animal model (model farms), farm market segmentwill increase.

Marketing company focused on the organization of workshops with specialists toprocess livestock, nutrition process and it is important to introduce the company's productsto farmers.

Services

Ensuring customer satisfaction is an important factor in assessing the success of thebusiness. Therefore Evialis $ tracking system to report customer complaints and takecorrective action and prevent rapid and complete.

In addition, advice on nutrition and veterinary service are two main businesses feedprovided to the agent. In terms of ownership, foreign firms tend to offer two services morethan domestic enterprises, but distribution services, transportation not many foreigncompanies provided by the domestic enterprises.This may be due to two groups of firms

with different customers. For customers of foreign enterprises are major dealers and farms,they have their own means of transport should therefore foreign firms focused on advisoryservices on pet nutrition and veterinary to them,.

Not outside the rules above, Evialis has established two technical advisory centerand pet nutrition in Dong Nai and Can Tho to support, advise and provide the knowledgeand technical application of animal new culture for its customers.Besides, the companyalso set up a technical team to organize seminars to advise and disseminate technicalknowledge as well as raising the customer, disease treatment and support if anyborn at thebreeding location of the customer.

2.3.2.2. Support activities

Procurement

Feed ingredients in our country mainly corn, wheat slices, soy. However, there aremany factors affecting the availability of this source for the animal feed industry in thecountry. Specifically, with corn and bread slices, the area is difficult to expand. As for soy,low productivity, no land intensive; winter the area is difficult to expand due to rising rurallabor cost.

Therefore, over the years, the animal feed industry in our country depends heavilyon imports. According to the Department of Animal Husbandry, in 2011, the countryimported approximately 8.9 million tons of animal feed ingredients, increased 3 timescompared to 2006. In particular, the energy-rich foods such as corn, wheat, wheat branwas 3.86 million tons (about 43%); rich foods such as soy protein, dried oil, fish meal,meat and bone meal. .. nearly 5 million tons (about 54%); additional feed about 0.2million tons (3%). In the first eight months of 2012 the country imported 1.1 milliontonnes of maize and 1.8 million tonnes of wheat.

Computing the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development, to meet livestockdevelopment strategy by 2020, demand for food in Vietnam is estimated at 27.4 milliontons (up 1.3 times higher than in 2012). Thus, with the current capacity to meet, we willhave to import more feed materials, especially energy-rich, such as corn, wheat, oil dry.

Figure 11 The chart of materials sources (local and import)

According to the figures, we find that by 2010 the rate of domestic procurement ofraw materials and imports are equivalent. But since 2010 the balance of the procurementof raw materials tends to increase in the domestic market, this in order to deal with thechanges of the prices of the world's agricultural markets is increasing, so Evialis $ insteadpolicy purchase your materials by limiting the import of raw materials in the U.S. but stillmeet quality requirements such as corn and wheat slices. However, the difficulty of thispath is the domestic supply is limited and can only meet the needs of the crop. Because ofthis difficulty, should Evialis VN is implementing policies seasonal procurement of rawmaterials and supplies, namely purchasing corn in Dak Lak to buy, buying bread slices inGia Lai

Material world market, with more and more changes in the world prices ofagricultural products, capturing market information is urgent and important to thecompany. So, Evialis Vietnam has established purchasing group common to plants in theU.S. and links to the parent company as well as other affiliates around the world toexchange information in order to plan to buy at the right time.

Technology development

Technology manufacturing compound feed for livestock or poultry used in theworld and in our country in general engineering and manufacturing processes are similar.In our country most of the factories have adopted the method of mixing, so the equipmentused in technology often similar in terms of its structure and operating principle. However,equipment and lines of different manufactures, have their own characteristics, differenttechnical characteristics.

Evialis VN production line use of Vanaarsen C600 and CPM7000, this is the linetechnology is a combination of many different lines, including:

- Receiving and processing chain material: metal cup to remove the metal samples andmaterials. Sieve impurities in order to remove impurities such as: large impurities,straw, fiber-shaped impurities ... to obtain materials of the same nature, to createfavorable conditions for the next process.

- Dosing and mixing lines: quantitative, for the purpose of determining the extent anddose of the food components, for each type of feed mixture at the rate specified foreach type of animal, as ensuring theas possible. Mixing: to stir the ingredients havebeen mixed into a uniform level to ensure that animals eat enough percentage of thecomponents in the mixture.

- Members and processing chain: feed generator is responsible for shaping the mixtureafter mixing into feed pellets.

- Line weight and packaging of finished products: plant products come in two forms:powder and tablets. Mixture after mixing if sent packing soon we will have the productin powder form, if passed through the stages of creating the product we will be tablets.Our products are packed in 25 kg / bag by automatic weighing and bagging.

Page 41: Capstone project report

All stages of the production line and equipment is controlled from a central computersystem.

With desired product quality is increasingly raising, now Evialis U.S. is investingquantitative balance system automatically Nutricell to ensure ingredients produce accurateand thus ensure the quality of finished products.

Conclusion: Differentiation strategy and product diversification strategy with the highesttotal score is reported to be 257 points (differentiation) and 251 points (productdiversification). Therefore, we propose the company prevail both strategies in the nearfuture in order to increase competitiveness in the market. In addition, companies shouldincorporate strategies such as: market development strategy, forward integration strategyand backward integration strategy in the specific conditions of the company to ensureappropriate sustainable development in the future.

Differentiation strategy

Evialis Vietnam is belong to InVivo NSA group that has long years operational experiencein nutrition and animal health, a team of personnel specialized deep understanding oftechnology and engineering together with the system of R & D, international standardlaboratory which is the priceless value that Evialis Vietnam can take advantage to createhigh-quality products at reasonable cost, bringing high value to customers. Besides,Evialis Vietnam to apply advanced technologies are factors that help company to createstable quality products, and high reliability are guaranteed. These are the factors that helpcompany create products with high value differences, enhance the attractiveness andcredibility with customers, is the basis for customer loyalty for the company's products .

Also Evialis Vietnam with a team of professional customer service and standard veterinaryservices provide value-added chain for customers, make a difference compared to othercompetitors in the market. To ensure sustainability, the company should seriouslycontinue to invest in research R & D, taking advantage of the group and constantlyimprove the value of products and services, link multiple activities bring added value tocustomers.

Products diversification strategy

By using inner strength of the Evialis Vietnam as well as InVivo NSA group to createmore different types of products to meet the diverse needs of customers and limit the risksdue to natural conditionsnature and cause disease as well as increasing competition in themarket. Besides, the trend of people's meat consumption is likely to change in thedirection from pork to other meats such as chicken, beef, seafood, leading to consumptionof pork decreased which is a factor affect to the demand of pig feed products. Therefore,the product diversification strategy is not only producing variety of products for pig feed,but also to invest in the production of feed for poultry, aquiculture and cow, etc…

Market development strategy

Based on the capacity of the company and based on the forecast growth of the feedindustry and the demand for animal feed increased as a basis for market developmentstrategy. In addition, under the pressure of competition and the potential risk fromcompetitors is why company need to develop and expand the market.

Market development strategy will primarily by expanding the distribution system, buildingmore regional entrepot at erea that plant is not available and expand the market for newareas; beside the domestic market company need to develop the overseas marketespecially the Indochinese countries has the potential to develop the livestock sector.

Page 51: Capstone project report

Forward integration strategy

Current market share of Evialis is not large compared to other foreign corporations inVietnam market, the distribution system is still limited while the big potential market sothe expansion of the distribution system is essential and dominate the market areconsidered important factors to help company develop sustainability. Forward integrationcan be considered fast strategy to increase market share for company in the future, toensure the development of the company in an increasingly competitive environment.

Backward integration strategy

Inputs of production is very important for any industry, while the animal feed industry inVietnam is dependent largely imported materials and foreign pemix. To ensure theproduction activities of the company Evialis Vietnam should be closely associated withthe supply of raw materials and taking advantage of the InVivo NSA group for premixproduction in Vietnam. By investing for premix production is considered as backwardintegration strategy in the coming years of the Evialis Vietnam, ensure raw materials foranimal feed production for the company and at the same time open up new strategybusiness units in Vietnam market.
