Business Plan Juzon juicesErika M

VHS Entrepreneurship Session: April 2007

JUZON is the union of: JUICE & AMAZONJuzon is an exquisite natural juice made of exotic fruits from Amazon (Peru)The juice ingredients provide a good source of vitamins and antioxidants1.What is Juzon?

My products are made for any person but will be more appreciated by adultsJuzon can be purchase in supermarkets or healthy storesThe company objective is to maintain the products taste as time passes by

Why Juzon distinguishes from the rest?

Exquisite quality by maintaining the fruit flavor with natural preserverNo added sugar instead an organic sweetener, pure honeyImproves your health, since fruit contains vitamins and oxidants your body needs

Package is eco-friendly (recyclable) because Juzon is worried in respecting the environment. Comes from Peruvian lands, thus create an exotic product and a difference to the always seen and tasted fruits.Adequate price offered because Juzon is for everyone who is willing to drink natural

2.Business Organizational Structure

Limited Liability Company (LLC)Ownership is divided upon the members. This allows themembers work together for the growth of the company.

Personal Liability: is also divided rather than one doing everything. Also a colleague will focus on his area of expertise in the business.

Taxation: taxes are not at the entity level but pass through LLC members.

Sharing of profit: LLC has a high probability of gaining more profit by working as a team; nevertheless, the profit obtain is seen in the long-run.

Sharing of ideas In LLC you can hear the point of view of other members who will not risk the money invest. The disadvantage is that it will be difficult to arrive to a general agreement.

Financing Startup: The financing startup will come from: members, stockholders and my savings. When doing capitalization for LLC and rest of structures it must be divided against the members.

Future plan of business: The life of legal in LLC is variable meaning that it depends on the business. Juzon Company will be unlimited this way the company can continue to grow as years pass by. Also in the future plan more products apart from beverage line will be produced using domestic ingredients. I will implement a regime to allow the company fall in good hands

Disadvantages of LLC

The C. Corporation & S. Corporation ownership belong to the investors meaning that one has to work like an employee for the stockholders. However, it is beneficial in the sense that one will not invest money since investors take care of that.

A better option for taxation issues is Nonprofit Corporation who are not charged for taxes, since people are working for the benefit of needed people.

The sharing of profit is better in sole partnership because the entire profit goes to proprietor while the rest or structures the profit is divided between members.Experiment the natures exotic juice!

What type of business is Juzon? Juzon is a Manufacturer because it will produce the juices from the raw materials being the fruits to its final stage were the juices are ready to sell. As well I will distribute the juices to the stores.

Consumer Description My target consumer are adults from ages 20-35. I Choose adults because they would spend more money in their health than teens.The expected gender are both men & women that would prefer to drink a juice rather than a soda. The primary need of my consumer is their health. 3.Marketing

Market Research & AnalysisThese results tell me that my product will be positively accepted by adults and teens. This is a good range since I initially calculated my initial price being $2. This confirms my initial thoughts regarding location.

Q:Would you purchase my product?12 persons said Yes!1 No.

Ans.:

Q:Suggest a priceRange of $1.5 - $7Ans.:

Q:Possible location8 supermarkets 2 healthy stores 2 restaurants 1 schoolAns.:

In other words to expand in all the aspects! I think is good since one will never obtain the best results the first time. Also I think I will stay with the holder b/c personal experience I feel is more practical.I agree with the results Selva is the most nutritious among them. However their weak point is that it is not well marketed and a high price for average income people. On the other hand Pulpin uses and that I need to apply is TV commercials and billboards.

Q:Any modification?Ans.:take the straptry it firstmodify shapeexpand healthy aspect

Q:Who is my competition?Ans.:selvawalon Pulpin

This tells me I cannot only focus on certain fruits but mix unknown fruits such as camu camu with apple. By doing this I will attract the lovers of apple to try an exotic juice with their favorite fruit.

Additional comments By reading all the comments in the questionnaire I have confirm that exists a public (adults) who appreciate and are willing to purchase Juzone juices! Nevertheless, there are several things I need to know and do before I actually start with the production:

Recalculate unit price with exotic fruits and organic ingredients. Create fruit mixtures such as camu camu with apple. This will attract lovers of fruits.

Modify the quantity of 250ml to 500ml.

Research deeply all the health properties of exotic fruits from accurate resources, given that I will use this information to convince clients.

Develop a better container for the juice. This will create a good impression for the clients.

1. Distribution to supermarkets and healthy stores. Benefits: People will see the benefits my product has in comparison to competition. No investment in an independent local. Public will find the product more accessible to them than in only one store.

2. Create a website Benefits: Allows new costumers to know the products, quality contact info, and company. As well this brings a stronger impression of the company.4.Promotion & Advertisement

Methods to reach consumers:

3. Use media (Radio, TV, Newspaper) Benefits: Since the majority of people see any of this media daily there is a high probability they will hear, observe, or read about my product. This method to maintain the image on the minds of the consumers.

4 Sponsor civic events Benefits Public will have a positive image of product More opportunity to obtain more clients

Economics of One Unit The economics of the unit I choose is a nectar juice made of pineapple. The bottle will not only contain the exquisite juice but as well several characteristics that will differ from my competitors. First the bottle will have the form of the fruit (only certain attributes of the fruit). This will create a singular/unique option in the vast beverage market were most of the bottles have geometrical shapes. Another detail is that nectar label will show the benefits of drinking pineapple and tips to maintain your health. The label will also contain nutritional information, required certificated logos to show it has passed through the quality regulations. This will create confidence in the client. 5.

In the future I would like business to expand in the production of other food areas such as: oil made of a very nutritious plant called sacha inchi, prepared meals with nutritious food. Apart from my business plans my future a personal goal is to create a non-profit corporation that will be in charge to defend animal abuse. I will achieve this by gaining money in the production of dog food were the major percent of profit will be used for the non-profit corp. Finally I intend to keep my business a future success by gaining more experience for free if necessary in competition companies such as selva. Gaining more labor and educational experience will let me get an overview on the things I need to add to my business plan. Also to help the companies I will work for if I see something is wrong. In addition I will save money for my business. 6. Future Plans
