Introduction
Thirst Aid water refilling station is a licensed and standard water refill station selling for
profit either wholesale or retail of water placed in refillable water containers or in customer’s
containers. The company plans to establish a standard water refill station in Balingoan and in the
nearby municipalities throughout Misamis Oriental that will become the number one choice for
households and offices.
Thirst Aid aims to build a standard and excellent water refill station that in our own
capacity will favourably compete in the market. We want to build a water refill station business
that will be listed amongst the top water refill station brands in Misamis Oriental.
The Company
Thirst Aid is located in front Balingoan Integrated Bus Terminal. It is going to supply
treated water to household and offices.
The company intends to hire 2 full time water refilling attendants to handle customer
service and day to day operations.

Products and Services

Thirst Aid offers an alternative source of drinking water supply, water placed in a
refillable water containers or in customers’ containers in a refilling station.
The Market
The demand at the water refilling stations – water stores that sell purified water – is now
increasing. The quality of purified water conforms with the national standards for drinking water
and is even better than the quality of water produced by traditional water supply systems in terms
of removed impurities.
Thirst Aid wants to establish a large regular customer base, and therefore concentrate its
business and marketing on local residents and offices which will be its target market. This will
establish a healthy, consistent revenue base to ensure stability of the business.
 MARKETING PLAN
A. Product Description
Thirst refilling station provides the service of ion exchange portable tanks. This is the
process of purifying water for industrial purposes. Bluewaters will take advantage of an
unsatisfied market need for segregated resin regeneration on a portable basis. The company will
primarily focus its marketing strategies on offering segregated regeneration services to the
untapped market of customers who require high-quality regeneration for their deionized (DI)
water treatment facilities. The facility that Bluewaters will utilize is located in Balingoan,
Misamis Oriental and is already in limited production. Full production will begin at the end of
September, with sales growing gradually to near capacity by the end of the first year, with very
healthy gross sales in the first year, and increasing in the second and third years.
B. Target Market
When it comes to selling treated water, there is indeed a wide range of available customers.
In essence, our target market can’t be restricted to just a group of people, but all those who
resides in our target market can’t be restricted to just a group of people, but all those who resides
in our target market locations. In view of that, we have conducted our market research and we
have ideas of what our target market would be expecting from us.

1. Stage 1. The water first passes through the 1st stage which makes up of a course gravel that
traps solid particles of about 100 micron.
2. Stage 2 Consist of sand filters that removes sediment of 50 micron ratings.
3. Stage 3. Consist of fine sand that eliminates solid particles of 25 micron
4. Stage 4 Consist of fine clear slit that eliminates solid particles down to 5 micron.
2nd Unit Multi Media Carbon Process
5. Stage 5 Makes use of a lignite carbon that removes foul taste and odor.
6. Makes use of bituminous carbon that eliminates yellowish and brownish discoloration brought
by inorganic contaminants.
7. Stage 7. Makes use of granular activated carbon (GAC) as the last multi media carbon stage.
This stage is where the water undergoes longer contact time with the carbon to eliminate other
contaminants that might cause foul smell or taste.
3rd Unit Water conditioning and softening process
8. Stage 8 Makes use of resin beads that attract mineral contents that convert hard water to soft
water.
9. Makes use of ion exchange beads to condition awter by extracting the organic and inorganic
chemicals present in the water.
10. Stage 10 Makes use of another carbon that eliminates any ferrous iron (dissolved iron) in
water.
11. Stage 11 Makes use of fine gravel that serves as sieve which eliminates any reside that might
come out during regeneration time. This is cleansing agent.
4th Unit Ultra Micron Process
Consists of a one 1 big blue housing that includes 1 micron cartridge that eliminates any
microscopic residue that might got to the reverse osmosis membrane. This stage stands as a
protection for the membrane. This stage stands as a protection for membrane against premature
clogging.
5th Unit Reverse Osmosis
Stage 13 It is the most important system in any water filtration and purification process This
makes use of a reverse osmosis equipment which has semi=permeable membrane that only
allows pure water to pass through and pushes the unpure water out of the system to the reverse
side or the reject drain line
6th Unit Polishing Process
Stage 14 Includes one (1) big blue housing that consists of a carbon cartridge that serves as a
polishing stage to make the water crystal clear and shiny.
7th Unit Anti-microbial process
Stage 15 This stage eliminates cyst microorganism that has a very thick cell wall where micron
rating of a and has very which cell wall where UV light sometimes cannot penetrate however a
micron rating of 0.5 will eliminate such kind of micro organisms. Cyst causes diarrhea and
gastro enteritis.
