Marketing mix

According to Prokhorova and et al., (2016) marketing plays significant role in the success of any business, if companies promote their brand. This is the tool which enhance awareness of product and help business in establishing in the new market successfully. Tunisia’s coffee market is wide hence if any firm enters into this sector then there is high chances of getting success because people like to have amazing coffee products. Randiva will market its products in a unique way, as it is planning to use social networking sites to enhance awareness among consumers, restaurants, coffee houses of Tunisia about this new amazing ecological coffee. By conducting marketing activities through Facebook, Twitter firm will be able to gain attention of mass audience in the country and many people will take interest in ecological coffee. Rocha, Petry and Riciardi, (2017) stated that product is the most important element that contributes in success of new business, if company is able to offer satisfactory goods and services then it would be better in gaining success in market. Randiva will ensure that it offers great quality ecological coffee. It will take care that transformation of kernels of dates into ecological coffee is done in most significant manner so that end product can have great quality and it can satisfy the needs of consumers of getting healthy coffee. The main agenda of Randiva is to offer satisfactory coffee products that do not impact on health of consumers so that it can generate reasonable amount of profit in this market.

Randiva will pay close attention on its products and will consistently serve the best quality ecological coffee to wide range of people in Tunisia.. It will use clean equipment’s so that hygiene remains maintained. During the transformation all the equipment’s will be used in most careful manner. Services of this new business will be its unique point as its frequent services will enhance number of customer of Randiva.

As per the view of Wang and et al., (2018) place is considered as most essential tool which supports the business in reaching to wide range of audience. If entity fails to use effective placing tactic then it would create problem in meeting demand timely. Randiya’s main strategy will be to reach to large audience but for that it will start supplying ecological coffee in officers and general cafes.. Once popularity of this product will increase then it will start using wholesale marketing techniques to reach to large audience. This is the great starting tactics which will defiantly help the firm in meeting with its objective and generating sales. Randiva will use retail distribution strategy as transformation of kernels of dates into ecological coffee is the longer process but once production is done then kit can serve to large audience. Hence it is planning to use retail distribution channels to reach to large number of audience to sell this ecological coffee. It will supply to super markets, offices, coffee houses or cafes etc.

If entity implements effective pricing tactic then it would be better in gaining positive result to the organisation. Firm has to ensure the purchasing power of target audience and accordingly it has to set prices of its goods and services. If people are not able to buy such costly products then it is essential for the firm to keep it low. As population of Tunisia like to spend in coffees but spend less money on it. Hence company needs to implement penetration strategy where it should first offer low cost ecological coffees to all its potential buyers , once they like it and become frequent buyers then enterprise has to increase cost of its products. This would be better in gaining attention of mass audience ad making them loyal towards the brand. This is the great start because people will take interest in its ecological coffee which will help in establishing n this market successfully and sustaining in market for longer duration. Randiva will apply penetration pricing strategy as competition is very high and people of Tunisisa like to have coffee at affordable rates. Hence use of penetration pricing strategy will be better for the organisation in gaining attention of large audience. As compare to other competitors it will be able to generate more profit by using this pricing tactic. Randiva is aiming to generate profit in next two to three years hence it is very important for the firm that to take care of cost and price. If its operational cost is high, then firm will not be able to offer goods and services at affordable rates. Hence Randiva will ensure to recuse of resources so that wastage can be minimised and cost can be controlled. By using this process it will be able to set prices of ecological coffee affordable for the target consumers. Apart from this, 15% additional discounts will be given to wholesalers and additional 10% discounts will be given to families.

Prokhorova and et al., (2016) argued that promotions is essential aspect of marketing mix. Companies need to promote their brad in effective manner so that wide range of people ca get to know about its products and services. Being a new firm it is very important for Randiya that market its new items properly, for that it needs to take assistance of social networking sites. In the recent time people spend huge time on these sites. They interact with other on Facebook, Twitter and also they make their buying decision after reading comments of others on these sites. These social sites have given the amazing platform to all the companies to interact with wide range of consumers and know more about their needs. By using this platform entity can be able to make them aware with the features of ecological coffee and how it is different from other same products. Use of this platform will attract new buyers and sales of the firm will be increased to great extent. Randiva will use social networking sites to promote its new business that is transformation of kernels of dates in ecological coffee. As it is completely a new concept in coffee industry hence there is need to promote this new product otherwise people will not take much interest in this ecological coffee products. Transformation process is such a lengthy process and there is need to take care of hygiene and other things. Firm will ensure to make people aware about the actual transformation process of this products and why ecological coffee is different from other marketer s by using social networking sites. The long term goal of Randiva is to gain visibility of target audience and get more inquiries of investors so that it can get more funds to expand its business successfully. Public relationship strategy will also be used by Randiva to promote its ecological coffee. This will help the firm in making direct contact with the audience and making them aware with benefits of this product and difference between existing coffee and ecological coffee. By this way demand of this product will be raised and firm will get more order of it.

Another promotion tactic will be used by Randiva is participation in seminars with samples of this ecological coffee. People those who have attended that seminar will be provided free sample of this coffee which will make them aware with actual taste of this unique product.

This is how these process need to be followed in order to develop strategies to establish the business of Randiva in Tunisia market.

Randiva will use geographic segmentation strategy. It will target people on the bases of their geographical location. This will have two segmentation tactic captive consumers and commuters. Commuters are such individuals those who travel one palace to another and captive consumers are such people those who are inside a campus such as offices, schools etc. It will target corporate offices and restaurants those which are located in metropolitan areas. Its main focus will be such corporate houses that have more than 500 employees.

The process of identification of the target audience is one of the most important step of segmentation process. All further actions of the organization are based on the audience that is selected in the identifications.

Market research that is performed by organization can help them to identify the needs of target audience.

According to Kobayashi, Hara and Usui, (2017) the company product is a healthy nutritious drink so the target customer will be the people who are worried about their health and finding better and healthier solution for tea and coffee. For the process of segmentation Randiva can use different type of segmentation process which are good for the product of company.

It will ensure safe use of any kind of agrochemicals so that neutrality of coffee can be maintained. Randiva will apply farmer ownership model (FOM) this would be better for the firm in transformation of kernels into ecological coffee easily and gaining success in market.

In opinion of Zhang and et al., (2017) partnership is also one of the better solution for the organization to select specific process to enter the market of Tunisia. In the business model of Partnership Randiva can form arrangement or agreement with local organization to manage and operate in local. In this process organization can share roles, responsibilities along with profit share. This is how organization can use the support to establish and run organization in the target market with shared profit and share risk. This business model can help the organization to get enter completely new market without too much risk. There is also one other process Randiva can use to enter the target market in Tunisia. Acquisition is one of the most effective process for organization like Randiva to enter new market. In this business model organization can purchase a local organization and use their resources, machinery and supply chain to start their business efficiently. This process of entering new market is one of the best process because in this process company can use all the resources, supplier and machineries. So, they so not have to make new investments and contacts to develop new business. This is how organization can use this strategy to develop their business in new country.

Apart from this firm will have to hire large number of employees so that according to demand products can be produced and supply in Tunisia market. Another major challenge in front of Randiva will be handing and convincing the corporate offices and other consumers why they have to start using this coffee. As competition is very high and people are addicted to sue one kind of coffee. Hence this would be another challenge to educate people with benefit of ecological coffee. Generating profit will be another difficult aspect for Randiva because initially it will require huge sales otherwise cost will not be recoved hence profit generation will be key principle issue for the Randiva. Meeting needs of consumers will be challenging as consumers like to have best quality coffee and if Randiva fail to meet their need then it will fail to success in market. Hernce it will have to ensure processing of right quality material to produce quality ecological coffee.

  • High demand of ecological coffee in Tunisia is other opportunity for the company.

Threats

  • Lower profit margin and higher investment or labour cost is the main threat.
  • Risk involved in pesticides is other threat.

PESTLE Analysis

Political: In this context, it is stated that businesses of coffee of Tunisia are dependent on international trade. After the civil war in Libya, many migrants and people of Libya decided to stay in Tunisia. In the context of coffee, it is stated that coffee companies of Tunisia offering coffee to Libyans at subsidized prices. Due to these prices and political stability, Libyans buy coffee in large quantity.

Economic: Economical condition of Tunisia in effective. Due to disposable income people invest in food materials and in coffee. Consumption in coffee is increasing with changing consumption patterns (Athmouni and et.al., 2016).

Social: In this context, it is stated that Libyans and people of Tunisia are becoming more health conscious. Rather, a regular coffee they seek organic coffee which does not harm their health. So, this factor can have positive impact on the performance of Randiva as it wants to transform Kernels of Dates into Ecological Coffee. Annual consumption of coffee is approximate 30'000 tons per year which is equal to 2.5 kg/year/capita (The Tunisian coffee scenario,2019).

Technological: An effective use of coffee machines and genetic engineering can increase competition for Randiva. By making an effective use of machines and genetic engineering, they modify produce at the genetic level in order to improve taste, yield etc. But on the other hand, this genetically engineered coffee has some side effects so, some consumers do not prefer it.

Legal: There are several laws regarding food and coffee which needs to be followed by this company. Coffee contains large amount of caffeine so, it is important to follow caffeine standards. These standards of Tunisia is becoming tighter and strict but by providing organic and Ecological Coffee Randiva can solve this problem.

Environmental: Sustainability is one of the important environmental factor which need to be considered by Randiva. Maintaining sustainability and by performing sustainable farming process, company can take competitive advantages (Samuel, 2017).

Porter's 5 forces

It is also important for Randiva to identify market trends and competition in the coffee industry of Tunisia. The main aim of analysing porter's 5 forces is to make strategies accordingly and take competitive advantages. 5 forces of Porters' are:

Bargaining power of buyers: Bargaining power of customers in coffee industry of Tunisia is low because prices of coffee is already low. Coffee companies offer coffee to people at lower prices. Cost is also lower. So, it can be beneficial for the company (Zlaoui and et.al., 2019).

Bargaining power of suppliers: Suppliers bargaining power is also moderate because there is no multinational company. All cafes are at small levels. So, there is a high intensity of this power.
