1.1 COMPANY PROFILE

Jollibee is the largest fast-food chain


in the Philippines, operating a network of
over 900 stores worldwide. A dominant
market leader in the Philippines, Jollibee
enjoys the lion’s share of the local market that
is more than all the other multinational brands
combined. The company has also embarked
on an aggressive international expansion plan,
and currently has more than 100 stores
outside the Philippines and is present in the
USA, Vietnam, Hong Kong, Saudi Arabia,
Kuwait, Brunei, and Singapore firmly
establishing itself as a growing international
QSR player.

1.1.1 EVOLUTION OF THE COMPANY

Jollibee began as a two-branch ice cream parlor in 1975 offering hot meals and
sandwiches became incorporated in 1978 with seven outlets to explore the possibilities of a
hamburger concept. Thus was born the
company that revolutionized fast food in the
Philippines.
In 1993, Jollibee became the first food
service company to be listed on the
Philippine Stock Exchange; thus broadening
its capitalization and laying the groundwork
for sustained expansion locally and beyond
the Philippines.

The company acquired Greenwich Pizza in


1994 to penetrate the pizza- pasta segment.
From a 50-branch operation, Greenwich has
established a strong presence in the food
service industry. A year later the company
acquired the franchise of Delifrance, an international food company. This expanded its
penetration in the food service industry into the French cafe-bakery. In 2000, the acquisition of
Chowking allowed it to have leadership in a major fast-food market - the Chinese quick-service
restaurant segment.

1
On March 2004, Jollibee International (BVI) Ltd., a wholly-owned subsidiary of Jollibee
Foods Corporation completed the acquisition of 85% of the issued share capital of Belmont
Enterprises Ventures Ltd. (Belmont), the holding company of the Yonghe Group of Companies.
The acquisition of Yonghe King has provided the Company an opportunity to become a major
regional player in the Quick Service Restaurant business in Asia. On October 27, 2005, the
Company completed the acquisition of Red Ribbon Holdings, Inc. (“Red Ribbon”), owner of the
Red Ribbon Bakeshop chains in the Philippines and in the United States. Like Jollibee and its
other brands, Red Ribbon is a strong brand with a wholesome and high-quality image driven by
good-tasting food and good-looking stores with excellent service built over years of development.

On July 24, 2007, JFC started testing a new restaurant concept with the trade name
“Manong Pepe’s Karinderia”. This new restaurant concept serves Filipino food at very low price
points, aimed mainly at people in the workforce in urban centers. On October 1, 2008, JFC
completed the purchase of 100% of Hong Zhuang Yuan, a chain of restaurants located mostly in
Beijing, People’s Republic of China.
On April 30, 2010, JFC entered into an agreement that provided joint ownership of San
Ping Wang, a chain of restaurants of 34 stores in Nanning, China.On May 4, 2010, JFC entered
into another joint venture agreement that made it a Master Franchisee in the Philippines of Caffe
Ti-Amo, a gelato, and coffee business.

To support the continued growth of the Company’s retail chain, the company has set up
commissaries (manufacturing and distribution centers) to manage the total supply chain process
of each strategic business unit: from the planning of raw materials and ingredients, distribution,
and logistics.

1.1.2 SAFETY STANDARDS

As Jollibee re-opens more of its stores and resumes dine-in services in select areas, it has
intensified the implementation of safety measures and sanitation protocols for its employee and
customers.

The customer safety journey starts with the crew and store preparations. All store team
members are required to have their temperature checked prior to entry, and while inside – are
mandated to wear full protective gear, observe physical distancing, and practice regular hand
washing and sanitation. The entire store ‚ including store fixtures and utensils ‚ undergo intensive
cleaning and sanitation before, during, and after business operations. Team members are also
given vitamin supplements to boost their immune system and telemedicine support to
immediately attend to their health needs. This will ensure that they are all healthy and fit to
provide the best service to customers, the Alagang Jollibee way.

Customers go through a 3-step safety check before entering the store: one – stepping on
disinfectant mats; two, the strict wearing of face masks and three ‚checking of temperature. Door
handles, and other store fixtures and surfaces are disinfected every thirty (30) minutes. For stores
with Self-order kiosks or SOKs, they make sure that these SOKs are also sanitized before and
after use. Stringent safety protocols are also in place for food preparation and handling.

Jollibee has also installed counter guards at the main counter as an additional safety precaution
for customers and cashiers during order taking. the main counter as an additional safety
precaution for customers and cashiers during order taking. There are cash containers available at
the counter, enabling contactless payment between customers and store crew. Meanwhile, they
can also opt to do cashless payments with the use of their Happy Plus card, PayMaya, debit, and
credit cards. In addition, table guards are installed on dining tables so that customers can also feel
safe and have peace of mind when enjoying their meals inside the store. Jollibee has also placed
markers across their entire store layout ‚ from floor markers, table markers, to seat markers so
customers are consistently guided to maintain at least a 1-meter distance when queuing or dining-
in.

To make sure all protocols are properly adhered to, Jollibee has assigned official Alagang
Jollibee Hygiene Ambassadors in every store. They take the lead and oversee the strict
implementation of safety precautions, such as wearing safety gear, physical distancing, no-touch,
and cashless transactions, and intensified cleaning and sanitation. Jollibee has also dedicated a
priority lane for frontliners, giving medical and healthcare workers, police and military personnel,
and other people involved in providing necessities and essential services, with preferential access
when ordering in stores.

This same high standard of safety is also applied to Jollibee‚ Delivery service, wherein
measures such as intensified sanitation, physical distancing, and no-touch transactions have been
implemented since the start of the ECQ period.

2. EXTERNAL IMPACT
2.1EN VIRONMENT/COMMUNITIES

8
Economic drivers and impacts: Approximately 98.09% of the company's revenue

flows back primarily to their key stakeholders, which includes the employees, suppliers,
investors, the government, and partner communities. JFC's widespread presence in the
Philippines shapes their financial performance and how they contribute to the local areas wherein
they operate, through the various opportunities they give to their stakeholders. Their businesses,

2.2 POLITICAL VIEWS

9
Jollibee and its founder and chairman Tony Tan Caktiong are apolitical and as

such do not endorse any political candidate, organization or agenda. Both the company and Mr.
Tony Tan Caktiong are all fair, clean and honest election. Jollibee's thrust as a company, then and
now to continue spreading joy to the Filipino people thru its langhap sarap offerings and joyful
bonding moments.

2.3 LEGAL ISSUES

“Mishandled food is punishable under the Food Safety Act. A fine of at least P100,000 and a
one-month suspension can be slapped for the first offense.”

Jollibee Foods Corporation closed down a branch of its fast-food chain in Bonifacio
Global City for three days, after a viral video tweet showing that a deep fried towel had been
served to a customer instead of fried chicken. The tweet, which has since been deleted, had
garnered over 3,500 re-tweets and 6,600 likes. Jollibee said the company is “deeply concerned”
over the incident and will conduct a thorough investigation. As a result of the incident, Jollibee
directed the Jollibee Bonifacio-Stop Over branch to close for three days to thoroughly review its
compliance with procedures and retrain its store team to ensure that this will not happen again.

.Establishments that have not prepared food in accordance with acceptable manufacturing
practices can be slapped with a P100,000 fine and a one-month suspension of operations for the
first offense under Republic Act No. 10611 or the Food Safety Act.. For violations resulting in
slight injuries due to food mishandling, a fine of P300,000 at most can be slapped, as well as a
six-month suspension of operations. The offender will also have to pay for the hospital fees of the
injured person. For violations resulting in death, the offender will face jail time of six months to
six years and be fined P500,000 at most upon conviction. The store will also be shut down
permanently.
Jollibee also face labor issues. The Department of Labor and Employment (DOLE) has
ordered Jollibee Foods Corp. to regularize some 6,482 of its workers deployed by two contractors
in Metro Manila.. According to DOLE Undersecretary Joel Maglunsod, Jollibee will have to
provide “regular employment status” to the concerned workers.

Jollibee Foods Corp. (JFC) said in a statement that the company had received the order
from the DOLE and the firm is following the process the department had prescribed to appeal the
order. DOLE also ordered the company to refund illegally collected payments to 426 affected
workers in the amount of P15,432,305 for Coop Share, Coop Christmas Party Paluwagan Fund,
and Coop Savings Fund.

Based on a report of DOLE National Capital Region director Henry John Jalbuena, five
of Jollibee’s contractors were also ordered to return unlawful wage deductions, bonds, donations,
shares and other illegal payment collections to 412 affected workers amounting to P4,137,158.15.

2.4 2020 PANDEMIC ADJUSTMENTS

10
Jollibee Foods Corp., the largest Philippine restaurant operator, is looking toward

foreign expansion and “opportunities” created by Covid-19 as it rebounds after historic losses
induced by the pandemic.

After a restructure amid last year’s setback, Jollibee CEO Ernesto Tanmantiong plans to
open 450 restaurants around the world this year while looking for acquisitions that could be
funded with the company’s 57.5 billion pesos ($1.2 billion) in cash and short-term investments.
Tanmantiong still hopes to achieve a long-term goal of turning the Manila-based company into
one of the world’s top five restaurant operators. Jollibee posted a 11.5 billion peso net loss last
year -- its first annual loss in at least three decades -- as dining out was hammered by the virus.

Jollibee, like restaurant chains around the world, faces a landscape altered by Covid-19.
The Philippines sank into recession in 2020, and the strength of its expected recovery may be
weaker than initially thought amid an escalation in cases and delayed national vaccination
campaign. It has the second-highest number of infections in Southeast Asia, and mobility curbs
imposed over the last year have hurt businesses -- with restaurants and tourism-related ventures
among the hardest hit.
In a bid to counter the impact of the virus, Jollibee -- known for dishes like crispy fried
chicken and sweet spaghetti -- has spent 7 billion pesos on what it calls a business transformation,
including upgrades to its delivery and online sales platform. As part of its PHP7-billion business
transformation, the company focus on its delivery, drive-thru, and take-out. The company also
talked about its cloud kitchens, which are small, unmarked delivery outlets that enable JFC to
quickly expand delivery coverage. For dine-in, given its importance to the business and
especially as restrictions ease in different markets, the company expounded on its heightened in-
store safety measures. 
 
These measures include the installation of acrylic partitions on tables and counters and
temperature checks before entry as applicable, the provision of sanitizers for customers, and the
implementation of social distancing guidelines. The company also bared its plans to expand and
open new stores on a highly selective basis as more prime locations become available at lower
rental costs.
 
JFC is seeing encouraging signs of recovery and improvement across its portfolio of
brands. Sales recovery has already started in the US, China, Vietnam, Singapore, Hong Kong,
and Brunei. It is also seeing significant improvements in sales in the Philippines, especially with
50 to 75 percent dine-in capacity now allowed.
 
Meanwhile, JFC, through its social responsibility arm Jollibee Group Foundation,
donated PHP220 million worth of food to frontliners and families in need in the Philippines -
providing meals for 1.3 million frontliners, and 2.5 million food packs to over 500,000 indigent
families.  JFC also allocated a PHP1 billion emergency fund to provide the full-month salary
during enhanced community quarantine (ECQ) and advanced payout of 13th month pay for all of
its work teams, including senior citizens and persons with disabilities (PWDs) assigned in the
jobs program in partnership with local government units (LGUs).  The same assistance was
extended to its partner employers to provide financial support to their employees. This was also
in response to the government’s call to assist workers during the health crisis.

2.5 NEWS AND CURRENT AFFAIRS

11
Homegrown fast-food giant Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) swung back to profitability
in the first nine months of 2021, and attributed the reversal to its business transformation program
aimed at adapting to challenges brought by the COVID-19 pandemic. In a disclosure to the
Philippine Stock Exchange on Tuesday, Jollibee Foods reported an attributable net income of

P2.7 billion during the January to September 2021 period, a reversal from the P13.5-billion net
loss sustained in the same period last year. In the third quarter alone, the company recorded net
earnings of P1.57 billion, a turnaround from the P1.58-billion net loss recorded year-on-year.

The company attributed its positive financial performance to “significant operating profit
improvement of JFC’s Philippine business, resulting from its Business Transformation program.”
Jollibee’s business transformation program, launched in May 2020, includes the permanent
closure of 486 non-profitable stores worldwide and four commissaries in the Philippines. It also
involves the improvement of operating expenses in the remaining stores and supply chain
facilities, and various other cost-saving initiatives.

According to Manula Bulletin ,Over 4,000 pieces of Chickenjoy have been sold, mostly
to British nationals, on the opening day of Jollibee’s debut in London West End, exceeding recent
opening day sales records from Leeds, Leicester City, and Liverpool. Jollibee Foods Corporation
revealed this strong appetite for its bestseller Chickenjoy as the Filipino fastfood chain opened its
Jollibee European flagship restaurant in London’s West End as it aims to take a bigger bite off
the UK’s GBP1.2 billion fried chicken market..
With hundreds of customers lining up, Jollibee reported that its debut in London West
End exceeded opening day sales records from its recent Leeds, Leicester City, and Liverpool
debuts

3.ECONOMIC ANALYSIS

12
3.1 NATIONAL PERFORMANCE

Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) runs the largest chain of fast food restaurants in the
Philippines and is reliant on a steady supply of raw materials, such as vegetables, cereals and
animal produce, at significant quantities and stable prices. However, the agricultural sector in the
Philippines is particularly vulnerable to such extreme weather events as typhoons, and when
extreme weather reduces crop yields, the price of produce inevitably spikes – exacerbated by
middlemen who hike prices exorbitantly.

To mitigate this supply chain risk, in 2009 JFC began sourcing produce directly from
smallholder farmers in addition to its traditional intermediary traders. JFC invested a significant
amount into partnership building and training to organize the farmers into functioning
cooperatives. Buying directly from the farmers has meant that when one area of the country is
producing lower yields, JFC can buy from a less affected region. Product quality is assured and
prices are more stable as the negotiation relationship is directly between JFC and the farmers.

By 2015, Jollibee had helped over 900 farming families in 27 cooperatives with an
increase in income of 200-500%. One-fourth of all vegetable produce sourced by JFC is now
purchased directly from the farmer cooperatives.

3.2 COMPARISON AGAINST COMPETITORS

Jollibee was able to attain a competitive advantage over McDonald’s by doing two
things: (1) Retaining tight control over operations management, which allowed it to price below
its competitor and (2) Having the flexibility to cater to the tastes of its local consumers. While
Tony Kitchener was hired to develop these competitive advantages abroad, his international
strategy of “planting the flag” and “targeting expats” was executed haphazardly and resulted in
losses for the firm. His eventual dismissal was largely due to his inability to manage intra-firm
tensions. The arrival of Noli Tingzon marks a critical juncture for Jollibee, where it will begin
entering the US market. The key to Jollibee’s success in Daly City will be its ability to find a
local partner that can leverage its organizational advantage, while navigating the challenges of
conducting business in the United States.

Jollibee’s success in its home market developed as a result of its ability to better meet the
needs of the Filipino customer.Although its success was mediated by the political and economic
crisesof1983, Jollibee was still able to deliver a product that was both cheaper and better tasting
than that of McDonald’s.The ability of Jollibee to adopt its menu to local tastes, as well as the“5
Fs” of its operations management are two organizational capabilities that led the company to
develop a competitive advantage over McDonald’s.The ability to push forward the Champ burger
highlights another source of competitive advantage that was recognized by Tom Kitchner:
flexibility. As one of the “5 Fs,” flexibility was an asset that Jollibee, could leverage more easily
than McDonald’s. As a younger company, Jollibee has the ability to adapt its menu items
without jeopardizing its brand image.

The company's economic downturns in 2019 and 2020 resulted in a negative profitability
ratio in 2020. It is the outcome of the corporation's exorbitant operational costs and little revenue,
as when the company had spent a lot of money on the pandemic adjustments.
Selling more to profitable existing clients is one approach to increase profitability. And this is
exactly what the business has been doing. Developing new ways to help them regain and recover
from their setback.

4.2 ASSETS VS LIABILITIES

LIQUIDITY RATIOS

Liquidity ratios are a type of financial indicator that is used to assess a JFC’s capacity to
repay current debt obligations without having to raise additional funds. It is also used to assess
the company’s ability to meet its financial commitments as well as its margin of safety.

As seen in the chart above, JFC's current ratio declined from 1.25 to 0.68 from 2018 to
2019. This suggests that the company's current assets are insufficient to pay for its short-term
obligations as they become due in 2019. The company's current ratio dropped dramatically in
2019 as a result of the pandemic's restrictions and increased community quarantine.This setback
was quickly recovered in 2020, as seen by a 50 percent improvement in its current ratio. A ratio
greater than one is usually recommended since it indicates that the company's current assets are
sufficient to pay for its short-term liabilities as they become due. Clearly, JFC has shown that
except in 2019 where the ratio is valued at 0.68.

JFC's quick ratio moved in lockstep with the company's current ratio. In 2019, there is a
sharp drop, indicating that the corporation has taken on too much debt and has difficulty to
recover accounts receivables. In 2020, the quick ratio was recovered and increased to 1.22. A
quick ratio of less than one is unfavorable because it implies that the company has taken on too
much debt, that revenues are declining, that accounts receivable are being hard to collect, and/or
that the company is paying its bills too quickly.

ASSET MANAGEMENT RATIO

15
The asset turnover ratio is a metric that compares the value of JFC's sales or revenues to
its assets. It can be used as a measure of how well the company uses its assets to generate income.
therefore, a higher ratio indicates that JFC has been more efficient with their resources..

The company's asset management ratios have deteriorated over time, indicating that its
assets are not being used generate sales. Due to the closure of numerous branches in various
places to comply with pandemic regulations and standards, the company's assets were
underutilized. However, the corporation is currently working to implement plans to increase
profits.

DEBT MANAGEMENT RATIO

16
The debt-to-equity (D/E) ratio is used to determine JFC’s financial leverage. In

corporate finance, the D/E ratio is a crucial measure. It's a measure of how much a corporation
relies on debt to fund its operations rather than totally owned funds. In the event of a business
downturn, it indicates the ability of shareholder equity to satisfy all outstanding debts.

The preceding figures reveal that debt funds a larger share of the company's assets,
indicating that the company is highly leveraged and at risk of default if creditors begin to demand
debt repayment. JFC should pay off any outstanding debts, raise profitability, improve inventory
management, and restructure its debt.

4.3 MARKET GROWTH

As of June 2005, Jollibee has a total of 1200 stores locally and internationally. A
diversification of food products enabled the organization to reach out to a variety of customers
and making them as a market leader in the Philippines. Due to the geographical structure of the
country, they are the only fast food chain that operated nationwide, and in some locations face no
other competitions.

The acquisition of several new brands such as Greenwich, Chowking and Delifrance
allow diversification of its products into different market niches. It proved to be a hedge against
downturns and competition and as seen in the case study, most of the acquisitions are the leader
in their respective market segment. The main draw for customers into Jollibee’s restaurants is the
appeal for local styled food catered to Filipinos’ preferences. This is evident as they are
constantly adding its product range on top of their already popular favorites menu, in order to
allow its local customers to experience the traditional Filipino way of having local flavored taste
in a comfortable setting.

which in turn appealed to the mass population whom felt more comfortable in a familiar setting.

family outings as compared to its similar competitors.Portraying itself as a fast-food outlet of
high-quality at an affordable price specifically tailored for the Filipinos, the chain has appealed to
patriotic locals. With its introduction of in-store play activities for children and a cast of brand
mascots, it reaches and appeals to the children and is evidently more popular than its nearest
competitors. Recognizing that a normal Filipino family’s weekends are normally reserved for
children, the previously mentioned activities add value to Jollibee's position as the prime
destinations for family outings.

Being a major player in the Fast-food industry in Philippines, they constantly enjoyed
economies of scale in terms of retail site selection, procurement, manufacturing, distribution, and
marketing levels unavailable to most industry players.

as suppliers of its food sources.Jollibee has been able to capture the market share of the fast food
going customers due to its understanding of locals’ preferences and it quality and competitive
pricing of its food. An approximate 1 million customers ate at Jollibee’s stores daily, making
them an important stakeholder in this category.The large daily requirement of food resources had
enabled Jollibee to enjoy better prices through economies of scale from its suppliers.

The million consumers walking into Jollibee’s stores daily represent strong demand for
its products. The uniqueness of the geographical landscape of Philippines has also made it a
challenge for fast-food companies. Globally, there are many Filipinos workers situated in the
overseas market, especially in the United States where there are estimated to be around 2 million
Filipino immigrants. Besides the US, many Filipinos are also situated in parts of Asia such as
Hong Kong, Brunei and Indonesia. Not limiting to Filipinos, their stores have also attracted other
Asians to eat at their restaurants.
