EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
INTRODUCTION
Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) is a Filipino multinational company and the owner of the
largest fast-food chain in the Philippines, Jollibee. Jollibee is known for its taste of home for Filipinos,
from its buckets of fried chicken, signature Yumburgers, and hot dog-stuffed sweet spaghetti, it is truly a
food for the Filipino soul. But before it was known as one of the top and leading fast-food chains, not
only in the Philippines but across the globe, Jollibee had its humble beginnings. Jollibee started as an ice
cream parlor when its founder, Mr. Tony Tan Caktiong had an ice cream plant tour, which led him to use
their family savings to franchise Magnolia Dairy ice cream. This incident happened around 1975 and after
such, his family opened up two store locations which are in Cubao and Quiapo. After this, instead of
selling ice cream alone, the owner found out that there is a demand for sandwiches and other hot savories
The non-ice cream products became more popular in 1978 and the restaurant cut its ice cream
franchise and was rebranded. During this time, the restaurant was still named ‘Jolibe’ until Manuel
Lumba, who became the business mentor and consultant of the growing business, renamed it Jolly Bee
that later became ‘Jollibee'. Aside from renaming the restaurant’s name, Lumba found out that there was a
larger market for hamburgers and Tan Caktiong believed in his insights that led them to turn the business
into a hamburger fast-food restaurant (Lim Uy, 2019). Since then, Jollibee has been working on building
their identity until early 2000s, the business began acquiring three Philippines-based food brands
including Chowking, a Chinese fast food restaurant, Red Ribbon, a bakery chain, and Mang Inasal, a
chicken barbeque restaurant. Currently, Burger King, Dunkin' Donuts, Pho 24, Hard Rock Cafe, Coffee
Bean and Tea Leaf, Smashburger, and its other overseas branches of the corporation are also under its
management. Jollibee has over 1,150 stores nationwide and has several international branches all over the
world such as in Vietnam, Brunei, Hongkong, Singapore, Macau, Malaysia, US, Canada, Saudi Arabia,
UAE, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman, Italy, and the United Kingdom.
VISION
Jollibee’s vision is “to be the dominant number one in branded eat-out in the Philippines”. This
vision statement reflects the aspirations of Jollibee to be the top fast-food restaurant in the country despite
the increase of fast-food restaurants within the industry that offer similar products and services.
MISSION
In terms of the organization's purpose and its overall intention, Jollibee’s mission is “to serve
great tasting food, bringing the joy of eating to everyone”. This mission of Jollibee conveys its desire to
ensure that the business provides their valued customers with great satisfaction through delivering
great-tasting yet affordable food choices and the best quality services.
A. Industry Analysis
The Fast-food Restaurants, a segment under the restaurant industry, where Jollibee operates
within is an industry that is familiar with almost all people. From the fast-food restaurants at the exit of
every highway, rest stop, food courts, malls, airports, and other establishments, they can be found
everywhere. Besides, they offer convenient food options that can be consumed any time of the day. Like
other businesses in different industries, dynamics in the fast-food industry are also changing as they
respond to the changing taste and preferences of their consumers. For the past years, restaurants within
the industry have been trying to develop unique and diverse restaurant concepts and menu choices to
compete and be profitable. According to Franchise Help (2020), on the global level, the fast-food industry
generates over $570 billion of revenues that is bigger than the revenues that most countries produced in a
single year. Globally, the industry has a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 2.5% from 2020-2027
and is expected to have a revenue of $931.7 billion by 2027. The significant growth is linked to the
increased number and popularity of fast-food restaurants, investment in tech-savvy ordering options,
change in consumer preferences, and rise in the number of women in the industry (BusinessWire, 2020).
Meanwhile, according to Priya (2020), fast-food restaurants in the Philippines have a market size valued
at $4.6 billion in 2018 with a CAGR of 6.9% from 2019-2026. In the same article, it was mentioned that
Filipinos have been living an “increasingly stressful and time-starved lifestyle” that leads to the increased
demand for readily available and take-away food that has resulted in rapid growth in the number of
fast-food restaurants in the country. In fact, almost 76,000 outlets were recorded in 2012 and this was
increased to 93,000 in the year 2018. Hence, the fast-food industry in the Philippines shows commendable
growth in the coming years aside from the fact that the market of fast-food restaurants in the country has
been highly competitive because of the presence of several international players that are competing to
To further analyze the competitive structure of the fast-food industry, Porter’s five forces
framework is used.
Since Jollibee is a known brand and already in the market for the long run, it has established its
identity and gained loyalty from its customers. In addition, due to large capital requirements and licensing
costs to start a fast-food restaurant, new entrants may be discouraged to compete in the existing industry
of fast-food chains. Also, large companies such as Jollibee already have access to distribution channels
that allow them to reach their market more easily. Overall, the threat of new entrants is low.
compete against Jollibee such as McDonald’s, KFC, and Wendy’s. These establishments are competing
for the same consumers who can easily look for alternatives. Therefore, rivalry amongst existing firms is
high.
One of the indicators that there exists a strong bargaining power of buyers is when buyers
purchase a large number or portion of the products or services that a certain business offers. But since
most of the customers of Jollibee only purchase in small quantities, they are not likely to influence the
product price. Also, due to the availability of alternatives and limited food choices, the substitution cost
that customers could incur is also low. Therefore, the bargaining power of buyers is low.
Since Jollibee is in the food industry where the raw materials are not unique and hard to produce,
there are a number of suppliers that can readily supply the materials, therefore, the switching cost is also
low. Because of this, suppliers do not have significant influence as to the quality of materials they supply
Threat of Substitutes
As mentioned earlier, one of the weaknesses of Jollibee is having limited food choices. Because
of this, customers have a lot of options or substitutes to choose from. There are a variety of restaurants
that serve similar kinds of food such as McDonald’s, Wendy’s, and KFC. For example, Jollibee suddenly
ran out of chickens, customers can easily go to McDonald’s to avail similar products. Therefore, the threat
industry through Porter’s five forces model, it showed that the industry is a thriving industry before and
amidst the pandemic. Their growth is due to the increasing popularity of convenient food products and
food that can be served quickly. Moreover, many firms in the industry like Jollibee have been established
already within the industry so, there is a low threat of new competitors. However, the main challenge
would be the low product differentiation among restaurants in the fast-food industry. Therefore, firms like
Jollibee should continue to improve their products and services to compete otherwise, many substitutes
I. Economic development
According to Rivas (2021), in November this year, the inflation rate of the Philippines remains
above 4.2%. This high inflation rate affects food prices and other commodities. As a result, the
purchasing power of the consumers declines, therefore, affecting the performance of business
establishments such as Jollibee. Likewise, the country is still behind on handling the pandemic that
resulted in a high unemployment rate and economic downturn that can have a significant impact on
businesses.
Even before the pandemic, there has been a growing interest in healthy foods among consumers
as they are becoming more health-conscious and aware of the danger of eating fast-food. These changing
preferences may greatly affect Jollibee and other businesses within the same industry. In addition,
nowadays, consumers tend to patronize the products of the companies who take part in preserving the
environment and addressing social issues through their sustainability practices. Another social factor that
could affect the business is the living wage of their target market. Food prices have been constantly
increasing yet the basic salary of workers is barely increasing. As a fact, the minimum wage is only
ranging from Php 316-537 depending on the region (Medina, 2021). This amount of income is barely
As the world becomes more modern, businesses should be able to be at par with technological
advancements that will help their business reach their target market more. In the case of Jollibee, they use
the media well to advertise their products and continue to communicate their values through their
family-oriented and heart-warming TV and social media advertisements. Moreover, to enhance their
customer experience, in 2019, Jollibee launched self-order kiosks that allow their customers to customize
and make orders at their own pace (BusinessMirror, 2019). Also, as online food delivery services are
becoming a trend especially during this pandemic, Jollibee should be able to improve their online services
Like any other business establishment, Jollibee must comply with government policies, rules, and
regulations such as those related to taxes and labor. When it comes to taxes, recently, the government has
passed the Tax Reform for Acceleration and Inclusion (TRAIN) law that includes lowering the corporate
income tax which benefits the company (Golez, 2019). Aside from this, since Jollibee operates
worldwide, they have to comply and make sure that their business activities are in accordance with the
laws and regulations of a certain country where they conduct business. When it comes to labor, the
business has to comply with labor standards and laws governing the rights of the employees including
their safety in their work environment and having equal work opportunities. Other than this, as climate
change becomes more serious, it has become a political issue that needs to be addressed. Connecting this
to the fast-food industry where Jollibee operates within, it was found out that the fast-food production has
been a major source of carbon emissions that creates a major damage to the environment. Camfil Air
Filters (2017) briefly explained how the whole process of fast-food significantly contributes to the
worsening pollution. It was revealed that fast-food generates large emissions because meat products they
offer require a higher carbon footprint than vegetables to be produced. Moreover, hamburgers, which are a
popular food among fast-food restaurants, are commonly grilled which is found to release more hazardous
particles than factory emissions. To add, electricity, which is a source of carbon emissions, is very crucial
to the operation of restaurants from their manufacturing plants and distribution centers up to their stores.
Hence, the food industry where fast-food restaurants belong face major challenges on how to contribute to
With the analysis of the internal and external factors that influence the performance of the
organization and assessing the operating environment of Jollibee, the following opportunities and threats
are identified:
OPPORTUNITIES
● Expansion in the local market- Although Jollibee has over a thousand branches in different
parts of the Philippines, there are still many locations where there are no Jollibee stores even
though there is a demand. Especially in the provinces, people have to travel to the nearest city
where there is a Jollibee store to eat on a regular day or celebrate on special occasions.
● Create a menu that caters healthy options- Since there has been an increase in the number of
people who are becoming health-conscious, Jollibee might find this as an opportunity to cater
healthy food options. Currently, Jollibee has only offered foods that are high in cholesterol which
for the company to focus its operations on e-commerce due to trends on online ordering and food
delivery services. With this, JFC should invest in technology, create an online ordering platform
and form partnerships with delivery service providers. This would help increase the number of
● Product Innovation- The Company should develop or innovate new product ideas to address the
demand of customers for vegan and diet food options. It should expand its product portfolio to
THREATS
people who are becoming health conscious. According to a news article published by Commetric
(2019), health awareness among consumers is becoming a trend that could likewise affect the
growth of the fast-food industry. In the same article, it was further claimed that fast food can be
described as similar to tobacco as both are addicting and can trigger premature death and chronic
illnesses. Moreover, it was determined that a large percentage of people who are in Generation Z
(41%) and Millennials (32%) are willing to pay more to have healthier food options. Therefore,
the rise in health-conscious consumers would greatly affect the fast-food industry.
● Global health pandemic- As we all experience, the global pandemic has restricted our
movements and contact with other people that even going to our favorite restaurant, which was
our habit before, almost became a luxury. Compared to other industries such as the tourism
industry, the food industry is less affected since their products are essential and online delivery
platforms and drive-thrus are available that allow contact-less interactions. However, the loss
incurred due to restrictions imposed cannot be ignored. In fact, Rivas (2021) revealed that
Jollibee had recorded a loss of 11.5 billion pesos in 2020 and had to close hundreds of its stores
● Rise in food prices- As has been mentioned, the inflation rate is still above 4.2%. This affects
food prices and other commodities. Due to the high prices of food, customers may be reluctant to
spend money on fast food that could likewise affect the sales of Jollibee.
● Competitors- A strong competition among fast-food chain restaurants around the world can
impose a serious threat to Jollibee Foods Corporation. Some of the major competitors of the
Company include McDonald’s Corporation, Starbucks, and Nestle. These companies have higher
market share, and are actively engaged in international operations. They also utilize different
EFE Matrix is a strategic tool used to evaluate the firm’s existing strategies and external
environment; the EFE matrix consists of external factors such as opportunities and threats that allow the
company to give more attention to important relationships that affect each key factor. It also helps the
company weigh the importance of each relationship. The weights determine which is the most important
factor that affects the success of Jollibee Food Corporation, while the ratings show how the firm reacts or
The table shows that in terms of the external opportunities, ‘creating menu with healthy food
options’ and ‘product innovation’ got the highest score. This means that these are the factors that the
company could incorporate into their strategies for further growth of the business. Meanwhile, in terms of
the external threats, it showed that ‘changing consumer tastes and preferences has the highest score
among the listed threats. As there has been an increasing number of consumers who prefer healthy food
options, the fast-food restaurants like Jollibee should consider the changing demand of the consumers in
order to be competitive. Weighted average is then obtained by multiplying the results of both rating and
weight. It showed that the total weighted average of the company is 2.29 which means that Jollibee is
responding above average to the environment for exploiting opportunities and to overcome threats.

Functional Analysis
Operating Segments
Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) develops, operates, and franchises fast-food restaurants
under the Jollibee brand. Food Service, Franchising, and Leasing are the three common market
segments in which the company operates. Under Food Service, the segment manages
quick-service restaurants and produces food products for Jollibee Group-owned and franchised
QSRlocations. With this, the Company’s QSR store concepts are franchised under the franchising
segment. The Leasing division primarily leases its retail locations to independent franchisees of
Operational Success
Jollibee Food’s Corporations success has been attributable to its effort to build a strong
manufacturing and logistical system as well as paid attention to its marketing efforts. The
Company’s quest for operational excellence was evident due to its strong leadership and targeted
approach to globalization. As a matter of fact, the Company establishes new stores in the
Philippines and foreign countries. It uses prefabricated materials for building the stores which
helps the Company to save time and money. The Company also established commissaries in Pasig
and Mandaue wherein it managed the raw materials, ingredients planning, warehousing, food
processing, distribution and logistics (“Jollibee: Fastfood, the Filipino Way”, 2003).
However, the Company’s operations have been greatly impacted by the pandemic as it
needs to temporarily close its stores and limit dine-in operations. The closure of over 255 stores
operating nationwide has resulted in a Php 12 billion net loss in the first half of 2020. Despite the
threats imposed by the pandemic to Company’s sales, it also provides an opportunity to expand its
operations on foreign countries and target more acquisitions as it recovers from the losses
incurred in 2020. Based on an interview with Bloomberg, part of the country’s conglomerate
plans for 2021 is to open 450 restaurant chains worldwide while searching for acquisitions funded
using the cash and short-term investments amounting to Php57.5 billion (“Jollibee targets foreign
expansion”,2021). It is estimated that around 80% of new outlets will operate on foreign countries
and it is equally distributed among China, North America, and Southeast Asia. To attain complete
recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, the Company plans to enter into expansion mode by
investing in more foreign markets and this will continue in the next few years.
Value Chain Analysis
Value chain refers to the components of a larger value system that comprises entities
either suppliers, distribution channels or both. Jollibee Food Corporation’s management must
consider each action as part of this value system, as well as how increasing or lowering each
activity affects the value chain of the Company. With this, the primary activities and the
supporting activities are the two generic categories in the Company’s Value Chain Model.
Primary Activities
● Inbound Logistics
internal processes such as receiving, storing and distributing product inputs. According to
Groysberg & Connolly (2018), some of the potential activities of Jollibee Foods
Corporation include but are not limited to material handling, physical product
warehousing, and architecture to receive and store information of the client. The majority
of Company’s inbound logistic activities are also currently outsourced.On the other hand,
the Company sources its chicken and other ingredients from a variety of poultry farms
across the country. The largest consumer of chicken deals and buys 80% of chicken
supply directly from local poultry farmers under its one “Inclusive Business Program. It
only imports from the United States during the Christmas season. In its corporate
strategy, there are 250 local chicken farms and 2000 farmers involved across the country.
Aside from this, the raw materials are also agriculturally sourced under its Farmer
Entrepreneurship Program. Most of the Company’s raw materials are agricultural base
and purchase its supplies for its burgers, soup, french fries and other food products from
rural farmers. Vegetables such as bell pepper, lettuce, tomato and potato have been
● Outbound Logistics
This refers to activities involving distribution to channel partners and final buyers
of the finished goods. Other outbound logistics activities include order fulfillment,
2018). In relation to this, Jollibee Foods Corporation created a Trucker Quality and
concerns on quality, food safety and security. This also allows trucker’s compliance to be
monitored and ensured. The Company also develops quality control measures such as
inspection of freight trucks to assure freshness and on-time delivery of goods (Cunanan et
al, 2019). In addition, the orders made by the customer are also placed in a container,
whether for dine-in or dine-out, and will be distributed over the counter or via delivery
vehicles. Jollibee also offers quality and speedy delivery services byu emphasizing the
(Ublade, 2019).
Jollibee Foods Corporation carries out these activities to provide a mechanism for
a buyer to purchase the company’s products. Pricing, advertising and promotion, channel
selection, marketing and sales force management are examples of the marketing and sales
highly marketed. It utilizes television, radio, newspapers, and more to promote its
products to the market. It also relies on a huge volume of customers and effective
operational management. The brand’s unique selling proposition includes food that is
good, clean and inexpensive, caters to the needs of the Filipinos, and the consistency and

examples of the Company’s service activities. According to Ubalde (2019), one of their
Company also has a HappyPlus loyalty card that customers may use to make purchases
● Operations
This refers to activities that aid in the transformation of raw materials into
finished goods. Like McDonald’s Speedee System, the Company also has a restaurant
kitchen design to increase productivity in the workplace. In JFC, it uses a giant grill with
a designated person who can cook patties instead of having a range of equipment and
stations for making a variety of food. Likewise, the Company has a dressing station
where condiments are put to each burger. There is also a fryer for the fries station, soda
machine for beverages and a counter where customers may place their orders (Cunanan et
al, 2019). In addition, Jollibee Foods Corporation has a P1.5 billion investment in Zenith
Foods Corporation which is located in Laguna and specializes in food processing and
logistics. It stores more of its inventory and it is where most of their signature products
are produced such as Chickenjoy, burger patties, spaghetti sauce, pies and hotdogs
Supporting Activities
● Firm infrastructure
This supports various activities such as finance and accounting, legal services,
planning, general and quality management. It also supports the whole value chain,
however the scope varies due to diverse companies within the food industry. On the other
hand, the finance planning is managed at the corporate level while the accounting, legal
and quality management are controlled at the business level (Groysberg & Connolly,
2018). Moreover, Jollibee Foods Corporation decentralizes its organization into four

and engineering as well as act as a support to Regional Business Units (Ireland et al,
2011).

compensation and benefits package to recruit the best talent and retain valuable
standards. Managers were also given regular training in the most up-to-date operations
system and management techniques. Members are given equal opportunity to advance to
management positions. Moreover, the Company is recognized as Top 20 companies
workers to perform a job for principal. The Company said that they contracted employees

network support. Last 2015, it also engaged in strengthening its core business by
activities related to managing and processing information are adapting the cashless
payment among all stores and self-ordering kiosks during the pandemic.
● Procurement
The activities are conducted to purchase inputs that are used by the company’s
value chain such as the raw materials, supplies, machinery, equipment, and buildings. It
also uses technology for procedures, vendor management, information systems, supply
2018). Concerning this, Jollibee Foods Corporation has partnered with suppliers to
procure its materials and make agreements when purchasing supplies or equipment. It
partnered with local and international suppliers to reduce cost and improve supply chain
management.
STRATEGIC (OR LONG-TERM) OBJECTIVES
Jollibee's goal is to become Asia's largest native quick fast food brand by 2020. Jollibee is
steadfast in its determination to continue expanding globally in order to fulfill these long-term objectives.
Given that Jollibee's major market abroad consists primarily of Filipinos, they have a huge advantage due
to OFWs (Overseas Filipino Workers). Jollibee has remained devoted to its goal of offering tasty food.
Jollibee is now Southeast Asia's largest domestic fast food chain and Asia's second largest in terms of
revenue. JFC's other long-term aim is to book equal sales contributions from its foreign and local stores
over the next five years, while also pushing for a large worldwide expansion strategy. One of the
company's long-term aims, according to the entity's chairman, is to generate "50-50" revenues by 2022.

Jollibee's Internal Factor Evaluation was designed to evaluate the firm's strengths and weaknesses
and to develop plans to help the company improve its business, particularly its internal organization.
Jollibee's IFE Matrix was constructed by outlining the company's primary strengths and weaknesses,
which are the important internal variables. Weight is allocated to each component depending on its
relevance in the industry, and the total is one. The rating was given on a scale of 1 to 4 and was based on
Jollibee's performance or effectiveness in each category. By multiplying each rating by its associated
weight, the weighted average was calculated. Lastly, the final weighted average score was calculated by
The factors such as Excellent Customer Service, Frugality in maximizing operational costs,
Consumers becoming aware of healthy diet, inconsistent service and supply among branches, and
branches with limited space received a rating of 2. Jollibee's efforts for it were given a rating of 2 because
they are either average or do not have a huge bearing on the firm. A rating of 4 was given to factors such
as Creative Marketing Program, Superior Menu Lineup, Efficient Manufacturing and Logistics Facilities,
and Basic Continuity Planning. A rating of 4 was given since these are the areas in which Jollibee excels
the greatest. The factor with no mobile application received a rating of 1. A rating of 1 was assigned
since, unlike its rivals, Jollibee still does not have available mobile applications in other countries.
According to the results, Jollibee had a total average weighted score of 2.73, and scores much higher than
2.5 indicate a good internal standing. As a result, Jollibee is an internally strong company.
Internal-External Matrix
Jollibee's Internal External Evaluation Matrix was created in order to analyze the company's
working conditions and strategic position. The combined EFE and IFE weighted score was used to
develop Jollibee's IE Matrix. In the Internal Factor Evaluation (IFE), the categories for total weighted
score are strong which ranges from 3.0 to 4.0, average which range from 2.0 to 2.99 and weak which
range from 1.0 to 1.99. In External Factor Evaluation, the categories are high which range from 3.0 to 4.0,
medium which range from 2.0 to 2.99 and low which range from 1.0 to 1.99. Jollibee's working condition
and strategic position is in quadrant V, where it is average in terms of internal variables and medium in
terms of external elements. These are the outcomes because the IFE score falls into the average score
range, and the EFE score falls into the medium score range.
SPACE MATRIX
Jollibee is in a position to utilize its strengths to take advantage of external chances, overcome
weaknesses, and avoid external threats since the vector is placed in the Aggressive quadrant. Jollibee's
position in the SPACE Matrix indicates that the business operates in a desirable and stable industry with
considerable competitive advantages and financial strength. Jollibee is collaborating with other food
brands and they should keep doing the same to improve customer satisfaction and to close off
opportunities for their competitors who use product differentiation to compete with Jollibee. Another
option is to increase Jollibee's competitive edge. This may be accomplished by developing successful
marketing efforts or lowering product prices. Another option is to increase Jollibee's competitive edge.
This can be accomplished by developing effective marketing campaigns or lowering product pricing that
will be hard to match by competitors. Finally, Jollibee may continue to buy subsidiaries in order to expand
Jollibee's Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix was created to determine which of the developed
and chosen strategies is best suited to the company's internal and external critical elements. QSPM can
assist Jollibee in determining which tactic should be emphasized. The major criteria that were used to
build the QSPM were strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. The weight was assigned to each
important component based on its proportional relevance to the fast-food sector. Each method has its own
attractiveness score (AS), which is determined by how appealing it is to each key element. The total
attractiveness score (TAS) was calculated by multiplying the weight and attractiveness score together. To
obtain the total TAS score, all of the TAS should be combined together.
lowest, and that it obtained the overall attractiveness scores corresponding to each of its major aspects by
multiplying such rankings to the product weight. The results obtained by combining all of the total
attractiveness scores from each alternative are shown in the bottom portion of the table. According to the
data, the strategic alternative "mobile application" has the highest score, making it the most attractive.
Strategies
Country-Specific Menu Items – In addition to the existing menu, Jollibee will provide new goods that
will cater to the mass market in terms of cultural differences. In an instance, countries with a large number

Jollibee is a household name for fast-food restaurants in the Philippines and its products and
services are tailored to the taste and preferences of the Filipino people. However, as it expands globally,
there is a need to create and offer products to meet consumer demand in the local market where it operates
or intends to expand to. Doing so would ensure that locals can have food that suits their taste and
preferences. Aside from developing new products for the local market, Jollibee could also modify their
existing product offerings to fit the local tastes. Hence, diversification of products through adapting and
adjusting to the taste of the local market reduces risks and increases revenue stability as it expands its
market segments.
Step-by-step action plan to progress the implementation of the Country-Specific Menu Items
The first step in implementing the strategy is through conducting a market research that
would allow the business to understand its market and its target customers. After understanding
the local market and its people, detailed and objective analysis could be formed that will serve as
a guide for the completion of the strategy. In the market research, the business should identify
what could be the possible local products they could launch and more importantly, to determine if
there is a potential demand for the new products that will be offered. It will also cover assessing
different local factors which may include cultural, economic, and legal issues and practices that
2. Menu planning
After gathering information about the market and the target customers, the next step
would be to plan the menu which will include the restaurant’s original line of food items and the
country-specific food item/s that will be introduced to the local market. Effective menu planning
ensures that the customer’s demands are met which will then make the customers satisfied. For
this, there are several factors that Jollibee needs to consider such as the availability of raw
materials and the costs to produce the item. Raw materials are sometimes available only for
specific periods or seasons which may affect the preparation of the food. Meanwhile, costs to
produce should also be considered as it will affect the price of the product. As a restaurant that
operates within the fast-food industry, price of its products plays a huge role on the customer’s
purchasing decisions. In addition, when planning the menu, Jollibee should list out a number of
suppliers that will supply the materials needed for the concept. In this stage, the company could
also review the supplier’s company history, storage facilities, delivery logistics, and ethical
3. Product development
Upon deciding what new products to offer and considering the factors that can affect the
implementation and success of the strategy, the product development will follow. In this stage,
this is where the concepts regarding the new product will materialize. In the product development
process, the demands and expectations of the consumers are given much consideration.
After developing the product, food safety and quality testing are done to ensure that the
product is of high-quality and safe to consume. Shelf-life testing will be conducted to ensure that
the product will last at an acceptable time for it to be produced efficiently, shipped, purchased,
When a food safety and quality test has already been performed, the product is almost
ready to be launched in public and be purchased by its target market. But before this, there is a
need to establish the cost of each new product in the menu and suggest its retail prices. In pricing
the new items, the concept, noted ingredients, and the supplier’s cost should be considered to
price the product accordingly. Hence, the price should cover all the costs incurred and must be
enough for the company to earn a profit. Moreover, the business could look at its competitors for
to communicate this to its target market to be aware of the product’s existence or availability in
the restaurant’s local branch. Brand awareness could be done through advertisements in different
mediums including social media platforms and other forms of mass media.
Units responsible
● Marketing Department – The marketing department is responsible for conducting the market
research that will gather information regarding the local market where Jollibee has a local branch
and its people which will be the basis on what country-specific menu item/s will be developed
and launched by the restaurant. The department is also responsible for advertising the product in
different platforms that will help the business reach its target market. Moreover, the department
also has input on the pricing decisions as they determine what the price should be to maximize the
sales based on how the target market perceives the products being offered.
● Production Department – The product department is responsible for creating the new line of
items in the menu. The department also ensures that availability and costs of the raw materials to
be used in producing the items as well as the quality of the final items to be consumed by its
customers.

also decides on the final price of the products to be offered. Unlike the marketing department,
they are to determine what the price should be to break even or meet the profit goals of the
business. They determine the exact cost to produce each unit of the product, calculate all the costs
Resource Requirements
● Financial Resources - The business will need financial resources to fund the activities associated
with developing a specific local menu item that will be added in the restaurant’s local branch that

Mobile Application
The COVID-19 pandemic has led the government to impose a stricter stay-at-home policy and
enforce temporary closure of businesses to prevent the spread of virus. This became a major threat among
industries that heavily relied on in-person customers and physical services including the food and service
industry. However, the software industry appears to be emerging from the crisis as it strengthened and
accelerated the expansion of digital and software transactions. Since the work-culture has shifted online,
web-based software solutions became in-demand including contactless payment solutions, e-commerce
platforms, web-apps, and automation software. With this, introducing a mobile application can provide

1) Conduct Market Research - The first step to the renovation project of each Jollibee branch is to

company should change. Pay close attention to the design and layout. The company must consider what
they can do to improve their restaurant even more than those other successful enterprises.

restaurant's ability to function will be affected by a renovation. Most renovations experience delays and

Jollibee Foods Corporation is known for thriving in speed and efficiency of operations. It truly
understands the increasing demand for a fast-paced urban living and knows that customers are used to
getting things quickly but at the same time, not compromising the quality of the product. With this, the
Company should focus on strengthening its internal business processes as its key performance area. Based
on Jollibee Food Corporation’s Balanced Scorecard, the Company can increase its operational efficiency
by cutting off ordering and waiting time and speeding the delivery time. This can be measured through
decreasing average order and waiting time by 5% and to establish a minimum delivery time of at least 30
minutes. With this, the target output is a Jollibee Mobile Application that will provide Filipinos with a
more convenient and quicker way to order their favorite Jollibee food items and have them delivered in
the safety of their homes. Moreover, the units responsible are the Marketing Department, IT Department,
Developers and Project Managers. The Jollibee Mobile Application is expected to be completed before
Jollibee is one of the leading fast food restaurants in the Philippines and is known for its signature
menu items including their famous chicken joy and Filipino-style spaghetti. It really is a restaurant that
has already established its identity through offering products that appeal to the taste of the Filipinos. As
the business continues to operate within the Philippines and expands to other markets outside the country,
they have to respond to changing tastes and preferences of its consumers that includes adapting to the
local market where Jollibee operates for their growth and stability. And to do this, the company should
formulate strategies that will satisfy and retain their customers. With this, the target output is developing a
country-specific menu item/s that cater to the local taste and preferences of its target market as well as
give an overall customer experience while maintaining the brand identity. The strategy is expected to
increase the customer retention by 5% that will increase profit to 25% and improve the overall customer
satisfaction. Units responsible for the completion of the strategy are the marketing, production, and
groundbreaking innovations to enhance customer experience and bring greater convenience to their
clients. They have their commitment to bring joy to their customers every step of the way with their
great-tasting food, better looking stores, exciting innovations and personalized service. The strategy of
renovation and expansion is a great way to transport their customers to a new and elevated world of joy to
make their dining experience and bonding moments extra joyful and special. The renovation and branch
expansion will raise the bar in fast food dining, without veering away from that familiar, homey feel that
Filipinos across generations have come to love about Jollibee. This strategy will enhance customers'
perspective as it allows Jollibee to attract new customers, to keep loyal customers interested, enhance
customer experience and to improve their satisfaction. Lastly, this strategy is expected to increase
customer satisfaction by more than 12% and the store can accommodate additional customers of more
To monitor the success of the implementation of developing country-specific menu items, the following
Price of the menu items impacts profitability. In this performance indicator, the item that has the
highest return and how other items in the menu are selling are determined. It is indeed great to
have a high-profit menu but it is irrelevant when such do not significantly contribute to the
percentage of the sales made. Some items that have higher sales velocity but produce lower profit
margin might be the ones contributing the most to the company’s revenue. Measuring the profits
earned by the added item on the menu can help the management plan for its further improvement
Another indicator that the company should consider is the production time it takes to produce the
menu items. Having the knowledge on how long to produce each item can help the company to
value the product based on turnaround time and expectations. Tracking the production time will
also allow the company to consider ways on how to shorten the production time and offer faster
Food waste has been a concern for businesses in the restaurant industry. If food waste is
monitored, it will help the business to improve its demand forecasting, have a better procurement
process related to acquiring raw materials, and better management and storage of food stock. In
addition, monitoring of food waste per item purchased assists in adapting better methods to
prepare the food and reconsidering the current portion sizes and serving methods.
To monitor the success of the implementation of the Jollibee Mobile Application, the following key
In developing the Jollibee mobile application, it is important to consider the amount spent
on each audience member the Company acquires. The Cost per Acquisition divides the cost of the
campaign to the number of acquisitions to understand the effect of various campaigns and
activations and assist the Company in wisely managing their marketing expenditures.
It refers to the average time it takes for a customer to receive an order from the time they
place it using the mobile application. One of the key performance measures as shown in the
Balanced Scorecard is to decrease the ordering and waiting time by 5%. This can be achieved by
considering the customer order cycle time to determine the operational efficiency of Jollibee in
preparing meals and delivering orders to customers. In monitoring the success of the
implementation of the application, the Company may consider lowering the average order cycle
time as this will indicate the sensitivity to the needs of the customers.
Retention rate is one of the most important KPI for mobile application development as
mobile users cannot engage with the application without using it anymore. With this, Jollibee
Foods Corporation must ensure a high retention rate of mobile application users to keep more
audiences coming back. To compute the retention rate, the number of users in a set time period
should be divided into the number of users in the previous time period. In this way, the Company
Jollibee Foods Corporation should also monitor active users whether on a monthly or
daily basis to have an idea of how many people engage in using the application. The Company
should obtain if active users count is rising or falling to identify if customer acquisition and
retention efforts are bearing fruit. The active users count can be determined by knowing the
Jollibee Foods Corporation can also monitor the success of the implementation of the
mobile application by determining the customer lifetime value. This established brand-customer
relationship by looking at how much value can be generated from the average user during their
time spent as a customer. To calculate the customer lifetime value, the total user spend in pesos
● Return on Investment
To determine the success of the strategy, it is also important to identify the amount spent
by a campaign as compared to how much was spent on it. The Return on investment is the ratio
Company must also provide a support system by measuring the performance of the application
using different metrics. The Company must monitor and improve the performance to encourage
more customers to visit and use the application. The following are the key application metrics that
● Obtain user satisfaction or Apdex Scores- This is considered as the standard for
tracking the performance of the mobile application. It functions by specifying for how
long the transaction will take and those transactions are classified into as satisfied,
● Monitor Error Rates-This is one of the most critical performance metrics. The three
ways to track application errors are HTTP error which is the number of web requests that
ended in error, Logged Exceptions which is the application unhandled and logged errors,
and Thrown Exceptions which are all expectations that are thrown.
● Identify the number of application instances running- This ensures that the
application scales meet the demand and saves money during peak times.
● Determine Request Rate- The request rates are utilized when correlating other
● Ensure Application Availability- Jollibee Foods Corporation must monitor and measure
if the application is online and available which can be done through scheduled HTTP
Check.
One of the strategies that might help the company develop and improve is branch renovation. By
raising sales and accommodating more customers, Jollibee's store expansion and renovation would help
increase profitability. They would have fewer complaints if they were satisfied with their additional space
provided by Jollibee. The firm will be able to attract more customers with more space. Internal
customers, such as Jollibee employees, would also be motivated as well as public customers, because of
the better environment. Motivated employees are more likely to provide high-quality work and increase
productivity. If a customer's performance is good, they will inform others about the business, which will
To monitor the success of the branch renovation/expansion, the following will be measured:
It's a great measurement to see if client spending has increased after the Jollibee outlet was renovated.
This measure depicts the total amount of money spent by their clients on their products and services in a
particular month. The worth of this may be compared over time to see if their consumers are having
The customer satisfaction score, or CSAT, is a time-tested statistic that may be used to assess satisfaction.
It's a customer satisfaction survey in which the consumer is asked a series of questions, the most basic of
which is "how would you rank your experience engaging with our sales/customer service/support
department?" Typically, the scale goes from very unsatisfactory, unsatisfactory, neutral, satisfactory, very
satisfactory.
Jollibee can also employ the Net Promoter Score, which was created to substitute the CSAT's lack of
predictive capacity when it comes to customer loyalty. The typical question being asked is "On a scale of
1 to 10, how likely are you to suggest our product/service to a friend?" . NPS is computed by subtracting
revenue a single client may anticipate to earn over the life of their Jollibee engagement.
