Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threat Analysis


Juice corner has several powerful strengths, which will help it to reach its goal by creating store awareness and positioning. Our major weakness is lack of store awareness and image and experience. Major opportunity for the store is the growing demand in the MG ROAD. Lack of good quality of our raw material (fruits) in the supply market is a threat. These are summarized in the following. Table- SWOT

Strengths
Juice Corner can build on four powerful strengths: 1. Premium quality: Our outlet will provide quality juice. We will always maintain best quality and always standard juice. As we maintain our delivery through our own workers we can deliver fresh juice to the market. 2. Fresh quality: Our Company is going to deliver fresh quality juice in our customers, as we know in our country lots of businesspersons sell their juice with chemical.

3. Timely delivery: employees will ensure timely delivery to our customers within 6 minutes.

Weaknesses
As a new company Juice corner has some short comings: 1. Lack of brand awareness: As a start-up Juice corner has not yet established a brand or image in the marketplace. Our customers do not know about our business. We will address this area with our promotion. 2. Lack of experience: One of our major weakness is we have no experience of running this business. For this reason, we can have some difficulties at first to run our business. This problem can be overcome to some extent by taking advice from some experienced person in the business. 3. Lack of time: Another weakness in this business is the shortage of time. Juices are available only for a few months in the year such as mango for 6months. So, only in summer season we can sell mango and watermelon juice.

Opportunities
Juice corner can take can take advantages of two major market opportunities: 1. Increasing market growth: people are preferring juice for refreshment. They are shifting to juice from cola drinks. For this opportunity market growth is increasing. 2. Health consciousness: juice is a fresh item and it is good for health. So people are getting health conscious day by day and preferring juice.

Threats
We face two main threats of our product: 1. Lack of good quality fruit supply: Because of our main objective, we will only sell high quality and fresh juices. But it is very hard to get all good quality fruits. 2. Perishability: Again one of our major threats is, fruits can be perished.
