II. PROJECT BACKGROUND AND HISTORY
2.1 PROJECT PROPONENT Jennelyn Padua Distributorship is managed and owned by Ms. Jennelyn S. Padua Since we are an agricultural country where rice is a staple food and primary produced crop, rice dishes are everywhere and one of which is this Filipino favorite called "Palitaw". Like any other Pinoys, the owner loves palitaw, because she gets tired on eating the usual flat palitaw, an idea came up to her to innovate it. Usually the plain palitaw requires separate ingredients just to add flavor and taste, she realized that it would be better to change it, to become more attractive, exciting and fun to eat. The owner together with its 7 researchers came up with an idea of adding a creamy delicious filling inside that will surely indulge the taste of the customer in every bite. To make it more attractive, the usual flat palitaw was shaped into balls. Aside from its taste, the researchers are much aware of what the product can give in terms of health to customers. We would like to emphasize that our product is safe, healthy and nutritious. Table 2.1 Project Proponents Name Padua, Jennelyn S. Gados, Ezekiel B. Tuazon,Ruth Joy I. Juco, CristineBernadeth A.

2.7 HISTORY Brief History
Filipino native delicacies, known as kakanin, are popular snack foods that are usually served as merienda or desserts in the Philippines. Kakanin can be traced way back to precolonial times when our ancestors used suman as offering to gods and visitors. Kakanin are native delicacies made of malagkit (glutinous rice), which comes in two varieties: the firstclass variety that is sweet, rounded and white and the regular variety that is longish and translucent. Kakanin are usually present on special occasions such as weddings, birthdays, anniversaries, and fiesta. No celebration is complete without these kakanin being served in the table. The word kakanin is derived from kanin, Tagalog for rice. The three basic ingredients are malagkit or glutinous rice, coconut milk or gata, and sugar. One of the most famous kakanin in the Philippines and one of the all-time favorite snacks of pinoy is Palitaw. Palitaw can be traced way back in the Japanese Era, they considered palitaw to be almost the same as Japanese Mochi Cakes which are sweetened steamed or baked rice flour cakes. Korea also creates an almost similar version that is prepared from rice flour, poached and stuffed with sweet bean paste. Since Asians use a large amount of rice in their diet, almost every culture has different versions of steamed or poached rice balls. Palitaw came from the word litaw which means float or rise. Others named it as waxy rice, pearl rice, and moche rice. The name was derived on the process how palitaw is cooked.

III. MARKETING FEASIBILITY 3.1.ASSUMPTIONS
Jennelyn Padua Distributorship will use distribution channels in order to get the product to final consumer.
The researchers assume 2 channels of distribution. The business is assumed to have additional one (1) distribution channels every year.
Mark up price is assumed to be 40% every year. Rejects is estimated to be 4%. Delivery of orders on the first year will be done by the employee, on the third year the business will be renting a tricycle for delivery.

3.2.MARKET DESCRIPTION Marketing is the vital part of every business and lifeblood of every business transaction. The term Marketing has evolved over time, today marketing is based around providing continual benefits to the customer following a transactional exchange. Since marketing focuses on how to satisfy the market / customer a market study should first be taken into consideration. In marketing, the term market refers to the group of consumers or organizations that is interested in the product and has the resources to purchase the product. And also, market dictates what and how many products/ services to produce. The market study seeks to determine the site, nature and growth of the total demand for the product, description and price of the product to be sold, the supply situation and the nature of the competition, the different factors affecting the market of the product and the appropriate marketing program for the product. Knowing your customer/ market would be the key factor on achieving the objectives of the business. They should be well defined and described. The researchers decided to distribute its products to outlets and restaurants around the City of San Fernando Pampanga, segmentation of market according to family size, age group, etc. is unnecessary. Jennelyn Padua Distributorships market would probably be the outlets and restaurants.

Outlet is a store that sells smaller quantities of products to the general public. A business that operates as a retail outlet will typically buy goods directly from manufactures or wholesale suppliers at a volume discount and will then mark them up in price for sale to end consumers. 1. FNC Nathaniels Bakeshop Restaurant is a place where meals are being served to customers or general public. Restaurants usually cook the food in their menu. Still some of the foods being served are bought to a manufacturer especially desserts and kakanins. 1. JLT Pipanganan Size and Composition of the Market: Since Jennelyn Padua Distributorship has a limited initial capital, having a physical store would be an impractical move, the used of distribution channels would be needed to easily penetrate the market at lesser cost. Jennelyn Padua Distributorship would be distributing to 2 channels on its first year these are FNC Nathaniels Bakeshop and JLT Pipanganan. The business will be focusing and invest heavily in pushing its product in the above mentioned distribution channels.

Geographical Locations of the Market: The distribution channels are all located at the City of San Fernando, Pampanga, near the business location.
