Trang 14MARKET ANALYSIS
1 Vietnam retail industry market
After four years joining into the World Trade Organization (WTO), Vietnam's retail market has shifted toward more integrated deeper and faster into the international market and the commitments world scheduled to officially join the WTO Vietnam's market is constantly evolving
The retail market is continuously developing at high speed from 20% to 25% size, total retail sales of goods and services reaching from 750,000 to 800,000 billion years 2006-
2008, over a million trillion years 2010 In 2011 despite the economic is slightly down with higher consumer prices that is affected to reduced purchasing power According to statistics, the goods and service sector has contributed about 15% of GDP, retail sales by 60-70% of GDP, contributing to economic growth in recent years
According to the latest report on development indicators of global retail business (GRDI) of consultants, AT Kearney (USA), Vietnam has significantly dropped in rankings in 2011 placed position of 23th relegation in 30 emerging economies surveyed ATKearney identified while consumer confidence is high, weaknesses in infrastructure and the cost of rent is too high poor distribution infrastructure and expensive retail space remain barriers to entry by foreign retailers in Vietnam Besides the traditional distribution channel is the dominant role and the new retail models began to appear increasingly strengthens its position in the market Vietnam is still attractive, with an expected market size of $113
billion by 2012 and a growing population of 88.9 million (Source AT Kearney)
Trang 15In 2007-2008, having only 200-250 supermarkets, shopping centers, to the end of 2010 there were nearly 620 supermarkets, trade centers Wholesale & retailer market systems were built The country now has 8.500 - 9.000 markets of all kinds of modern business methods developed rapidly with 20% to 23% of goods flow by this method, in which many large retailers such as Saigon Coop, Nguyen Kim, Nhat Nam Joint Stock Company, Phu Thai Corporation

2 General information of Chewing-gum market
2.1 Introduction
The candy industry has many different kinds of candy to satisfy diversified consumers’ needs and ages The chewing gum industry is also used the same formula by providing fruit, mints and coffee chewing gum It’s quite large and difficult to choose one product to meet with consumer’s requirement If looking at the gum market, there are classified into 4
criteria: brand, package, needs, and flavor (see figure 2.1.a: Product Clarification Map –
Source Orion Internal) However, these products deliver only refreshing or avoiding sleepy
while the most concern of consumers’ perception is worry on the effected of chewing caused tooth decay or obesity that all of them couldn’t meet, hence Lotte and Wrigley launched out the market with included XYLITOL ingredient - sugar free new trend line that meet with all of consumers’ expectation
XYLITOL is a sugar alcohol sweetener used as a naturally occurring sugar substitute It is found in the fibers of many fruits and vegetables, and can be extracted from various berries, oats, and mushrooms, as well as fibrous material such as corn husks and sugar cane bagasse and birch Xylitol is roughly as sweet as sucrose with only two-thirds the food energy
(Source Wikipedia)
Trang 17At the moment, most consumer do not spontaneously get the right benefit of XYLITOL yet: XYLITOL still has positive associations and perceived benefits with “new”, “powerful”,
“effective”, “pharmaceutical” (positive) and “generally better for teeth and health”
In Figure 2.1.b, the potential of Sugar free segment is quite big when the trend line of good for health is increasingly while volume share in 6 key cities just gotten 8.8 in total gum category
Cool Air is now gaining significantly in the market together with Double Mint dominating the Sugar which are still top at consumer spontaneous awareness in Gum category with SUGAR segment while XYLITOL gum brands are now increasingly getting popular - the
Sugar Free is gaining across time – Extra & Lotte Xylitol (Figure 2.1.c: Value Share in
Total 6 cities of Gum segment – Source ACN)
Figure 2.1.b: Volume & Value Share-Total 6 cities – Gum category – Source ACN
Figure 2.1.a: Product clarification map – Source Orion Internal
Trang 18Following to ACN research estimated about the growth line of the value and volume sales
of total 6 key cities increases significant The Gum category grows across cities and HCMC
is still the key chunk of the market with the leading growth rate
That is the potential Gum market, what is currently happening in the market when the 2011 inflation didn’t like forecast The two major driving force for this process is the rise in food prices and fuel prices due to unfavorable weather is the main cause of the lack of food supply and thereby the strong price increases In addition, other factors also affect negatively the stability of food prices such as natural disasters in Japan, the political instability in many countries, increased oil prices and unstable situation elongation of the financial system It also identified two areas most strongly affected by inflation and fuel

Trang 19prices for agricultural products will be in Africa and Southeast Asia, especially Vietnam country
Moreover, the problems of the economy in countries such as input prices rise, high interest rates are also reasons for agricultural shrunk Since then, declined food supply and put pressure on this category Hence, rice prices have increased 20-30%, 10-20% of pork increased, prices of some other food products increased 10-20%, even, Gum category
growth despite (Figure 2.1.1: Unit price of Top items contributing category value and
existing over last 13 periods in 6 cities – Source ACN)
2.2 Market demand:
To Vietnamese consumers, the core benefits they look for from chewing gum today are relatively basic: refreshing feelings, removes bad odor/freshens breath for social confidence purposes Oral care benefits of chewing gum (such as teeth whitening, preventing tooth decay) are not yet the most important benefits that consumers expect from chewing gum There is still relatively low level of demand for these Nevertheless, the increased consumers’ awareness about these benefits predicts a possible future shift in what they would need from chewing gum
However, the confusion of consumers between XYLITOL as a brand name with Lotte and Extra as different variants provide opportunities for new brand Most people think that
Figure 2.1.e: Unit price of Top items contributing category value and existing over last 13
periods in 6 cities – Source ACN
Trang 20Lotte and Extra are under the same brand name XYLITOL More consumers link XYLITOL with LOTTE rather than Extra (Extra XYLITOL is another product variant which is focusing more on fruit flavors)
The challenge is still on Orion to differentiate itself from being considered “another variant” while still inheriting XYLITOL It is quite certain that labeling and packaging would play a crucial role in this “impulse” category A big and impactful XYLITOL word on label combine with a “credible” and “differentiating” Orion background & sub-label would be important
In the recent research of ACN (Figure 2.2.a: the most factors consumers concern), the most
of interviewees confirmed those factors they consider in their life that are “Health” and
“Price” in their top of minds Therefore, if Orion could take this chance and cover these 2 factors to launch out the product to attack into consumer insight Increasingly, Vietnamese consumers demonstrate a preference for “low-priced, individually packed” confectionery items This has resulted in “smaller and neater” product presentations that can be consumed
as a quick snack Vietnamese consumers also prefer softer and less sweet products to hard, sugary items The following product profiles (utilizing Vietnamese retail sales data) reflect these trends
However, these two factors are really risky if not Orion could utilize skillful and harmonious in the communications that could be the worst case when down brand image and cause to consumers more concerns on quality If they look through their competitors’ activities & communication, they could recognize that all of them just owned one of them
Figure 2.2.a: the most factors consumers concern – Source ACN
Trang 21Key drivers for using current XYLITOL: its position was combination of basic drivers plus
a more pharmaceutical/treating benefit This is a general direction for a new brand of XYLITOL
Therefore, this is the huge potential if Orion XYLITOL catch the big chance if combination basic drivers plus added factor that is recommended by dentist This mean if Orion XYLITOL is to enter into the market now, with the proposition of providing oral care benefits, Orion will need to invest a lot in educating the consumers of these benefits If consumers are not fully educated and informed, the benefits claimed would not be credible Orion new brand has to utilize this opportunity by leveraging XYLITOL and connecting it with Orion
2.3 Competitor analysis:
The market share research of AC Nielsen’ 2009 showed that at that moment there were many companies to invest into gum segment but the 3 dominant leader companies are: Lotte (value share: 10,3), Wrigley (value share: 81) and Perfetti (value share: 8.3) in the market That is the total overview pictures of sugar market but sugarless segment, there are just 2
companies exploited with Lotte XYLITOL & Extra (Figure 2.3: Market share in Gum –

especially about pharmaceutical Consumers not yet get the right benefit of Xylitol

Trang 242.4 Consumer behavior
The young population account for 56% under 34 years old that means an increase in
purchasing power as well as joining more the workforce (Figure 2.4.a: Vietnam population
– Source U.S Central Bureau, International Database) Therefore, customers that Orion
XYLITOL focuses on male & female have to work from age 25 - 35 With this age group accounted for about 17% of the total population This is the potential segment with a large consumers and the main income of the family
This is the number statistics from government’s research when divided population level
based on the income and property
Figure 2.4.a: Vietnam population – Source U.S Central Bureau, International Database
Trang 25The figure 2.4.c is to re-confirm the right focus on the target segment of young working, stable income adults, men and women (more important) While both are heavy users, women are making more actual purchase than men
Regardless of this segment, there are a lot of factors that they concern, especially in health sector
Firstly, effecting from the last two year of 2009 & 2011, Vietnamese consumers was starting changed their behaviors in shopping Promotion seems that the most factor to consider in buying daily Continuing to 2011’s inflation, consumers increased more saving budget from salaries with the strategies spending in daily They reduced in shopping and found the ways to save cost like buying products at the shop in near house, replacing foreign brand to local brand with same benefits, consideration and comparison on prize between
each shops and preferred more promotion (Figure 2.4.d: Promotion trend in Vietnam –
Trang 26Secondly, consumer’s perception is also differentiated about international goods and domestic goods in each category With clothes, electronics, they preferred imported ones more In Food & Drinks category, they preferred the most domestic because of tasting

Although this is totally new business for Orion but they could totally utilize all of resource members in white-collar like Board members (General Manager, Human Resource Manager, Accounting Manager, Marketing Manager) as well Sales & Development team The payroll will be shared to new business with nearly 10% in total sales In the first year when establishing business, they only recruit 30 total people to be responsible for production chain (2 team leaders and 26 production staffs) with stirring, mixing and packing stage and 2 people for management in marketing site by Brand Manager and Assistant Brand Manager
The report-line from new team could be more management when 2 team leader lead production staffs and report directly to Planning Manager With Gum marketing team, they report to Marketing Manager
With this solution, Orion could save more budgets in recruiting and payment
