EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

According to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (2019), a total of 21% surge
of carbon emission happened from 2013 to 2017. Studies have shown that 2.4% of the world’s
total carbon dioxide emission came from the aviation industry in the year 2018. Another
considerable fact is that the economic health of air transportation had been greatly affected due to
the health protocols imposed by health experts because of the COVID-19 Pandemic. Considering
all the restrictions being implemented throughout the globe, numerous flights have been canceled
and banned which results in a massive loss in the total revenue of the airlines.

With all the facts provided above, Fueler envisions an economical market and greener
environment while promoting biofuels from the land through the air. Fueler decided to
manufacture a fuel that can be used by airlines as a response to the two main problems that the
proponents aim to resolve. Biofuel will be more eco-friendly than a normal jet fuel given its
minimum emission of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Secondly, the biofuel that the company
will be manufacturing will be cheaper than those that are already available in the market. This is
because, in the manufacturing process, Fueler Corporation will be using feedstocks from
agricultural wastes as the main ingredient to produce the biofuel. This cheap but quality product
will help airlines to at least have savings especially these times that the pandemic is still striking
the global economy. While Neste and World Energy are two of the major competitors in biofuel
production, both companies are bounded internationally. That is, Fueler will be taking advantage
of its geographical location for the customers situated in the Philippines.

In initiating the business venture, the target market of Fueler Corporation would initially
be the aviation schools in the Philippines. In a sense, aviation schools are only using small
aircraft in comparison to the ones used in commercial flights. With that being said, they are only
in need of a low fuel supply. Since the company is still a starting business, the proponents have
to start with low production of biofuel. Starting from aviation schools will be advantageous for
the company since it will add up to the company’s credibility as a quality manufacturer of
biofuels. As time goes by, Fueler Corporation will attract more aviation schools and will create a
way for airline companies to eventually recognize our product. The company will be situated at
CW0032 Warehouse, Municipality of Guiguinto, 3015 Bulacan, Philippines to become
accessible to one of the major airline companies which is the Bulacan International Airport also
known as the New Manila International Airport.

The proponents seek to utilize the Alcohol-to-jet process (AJT) in manufacturing


biofuels. This process involves three major phases as follows: (1) pretreatment, (2) fermentation,
(3) and distillation. Among the primary equipment and machinery that will be used for the
production are the milling machines, fermentation machines, and distillation machines. Each of
these serves its purpose in each phase of the manufacturing process. That is, the agricultural
residues (raw materials) are to be extracted through milling. Once done with the pretreatment,
the sugar from the wastes will be converted chemically into ethanol. The fermented product will
be filtered to separate pure alcohol from any other residual components. After distillation comes
to the production of biofuels that can be readily available in the market.

The operation would be efficient enough to handle a total production of 2347 liters/587
gallons or approximately 20 barrels of biofuels every day. The company will be offering delivery
services for the convenience of the general aviation flight schools and air transport companies

Page | 4
(airlines, private, charter) which compose the 30% and 70% total market segmentation of the
company, respectively.

In funding the business, the proponents seek to acquire a total of Php 8.4 million to be
generated from the management investments (Php 4.8 million) and external investors (Php 3.6
million). The generated funds will then be budgeted for various expenses for the business
including marketing, operations cost, production cost, manufacturing cost, miscellaneous and
other unforeseen expenses. Currently, the company has a total fund of Php 4.8 million from the
personal investments of the owners. The remaining Php 3.6 million is sought to be filled by angel
investors. They are crucial in the implementation of the business plan as they cover over half of
the total capital needed to start the entrepreneurial venture of manufacturing and producing
biofuels.

The proponents projected the following assumptions: (1) Fueler Corp. will achieve its
16% annual revenue growth rate, (2) proponents will obtain 8.4 million from personal and
external investments, (3) 10% equity interest rate will be given to the investor(s). Given the
overwhelming depreciation of the aviation market industry due to the current worldwide health
crisis, the company is still expected to gradually increase its overall sales with a 5.91% growth
rate in the next three years.

To ensure the organization of the company, the proponents came up with a corporate
structure consisting of one executive spearheading four major departments as follows: (1)
Marketing Department, (2) Finance Department, (3) Human Resources Department, and
Operations Department. These departments are captained by Aldwin Caparas, Jason Braga,
Justinn Cabatic, and Norman Bico, respectively. The overall president and vice president of
Fueler corporation are Rheinhallt Carpo and Amiel Baylon, correspondingly.

In any business venture, there are unforeseen events. To complement the problems that
may potentially arise, the proponents acknowledged both the internal and external risk factors
that should be addressed and properly managed throughout the entrepreneurial activity. The
internal risk factors include liquidity and financial risk, failure to hire the best talent, damage to
reputation, and failure to innovate. On a side note, among the external risk factors include
business competition, economic shift, natural disasters, political issues, and environmental
issues. Each factor has its corresponding intervention that should be taken into great
consideration.

The proponents aim to advance its marketing style every year. There will be an annual
strategy review to secure more investors and gain a significant number of shareholders not just in
the Philippines but also in the countries across the international borders. Some of the forecasted
advancements include the expansion of the company through business franchising and increased
production through the addition of equipment and required machinery. All these towards the
achievement of a greener air that is breathable and worthwhile.

ENVIRONMENTAL AND INDUSTRY ANALYSIS

CONDITIONS OF THE GENERAL ENVIRONMENT

SOCIOCULTURAL CONDITIONS

As time passes by, many unpredictable occurrences may happen and affect the aviation
industry. Thus, these occurrences may lead to the depreciation of the income of various airlines
leading them to search for less expensive sources of flight and jet fuels. Moreover, given a
massive amount of carbon in the airspace, would lead airlines to demand green products and
services.

TECHNOLOGICAL CONDITIONS

Over the past years until today, the developments in science and technology are
continuous; having a beneficial impact on businesses. Scientists now developed different
processing techniques in converting the harvested feedstocks into biofuels. One of the processes
is the Alcohol-to-jet process (ATJ). ATJ has the potential to become a cheaper process compared
to others because the feedstocks are less expensive and easier to obtain. In addition, this process
does not require much energy. Thus the price of biofuels will also drop, matching the airline’s
cheaper and eco-friendly jet fuel preferences.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS

In June 2017, the World Bank reported their Global Economic Prospects. In their report,
they stated that in 2017 and 2018, the Philippine Growth Domestic Product (GDP) growth rate is
the same at 6.9 percent, and then 6.8 percent in 2019. At the same time, the Asian Development
Outlook was changed by the Asian Development Bank (ADB). They enhanced their growth
projection for the Philippines in 2017 from 6.4% to 6.5%. Then for 2018, the ADB is expecting
the GDP growth from 6.6% to 6.7%.

The fuel demand is expected to increase in the long-term because of the continuous
growth of the economy, matching with the continuous increase of the population. In addition,
due to the DOE's ongoing monitoring of oil companies' strict compliance with the mandatory
biofuel blend. An increase of 5.2 percent in biofuel demand is expected between the years 2018
and 2020. As a result, this adds up to the reasons why the company chooses to manufacture
Biofuel; because of the expected increase in demand for sustainable fuel in the next years.

POLITICO-LEGAL CONDITIONS

The Fueler Corp. would be affected by two laws namely the RA 9367 and RA 9513. The
former seeks to lessen the Philippines’ reliance on other countries with regards to fuels
considering the nature, ecosystems and the preservation of the people’s health resulting in the
country’s long-term economic growth. On the other hand, the latter was created to declare the
government’s devotion to apply further and maximize the country’s use of renewable energy
resources. This act aims to achieve economic growth while reducing harmful emissions to
protect the health and environment.

Page | 6
With that said, both laws have a substantial impact on the company’s sales. Both laws
goal promotes the use of renewable energy to protect public health and the environment, hence,
making the demand for the company's product biofuel increase for the next following years.

CONDITIONS OF THE SPECIFIC ENVIRONMENT

COMPETITION

There are five approved means of biofuel production that can blend with fossil jet
kerosene. Currently, the only technically advanced and commercially available biofuels are those
produced by synthesizing esters and fatty acids also known as the HEFA-SPK. These biofuels
are expected to be utilized from the short to medium term.

As of now, there are two major players in the production of sustainable aviation fuel.
First is Neste, Neste is developed the Neste MY Sustainable Aviation Fuel™ which is said to
reduce 80% of the greenhouse gas emissions. Currently, 100,000 tons is Neste’s annual capacity
of SAF production in the United States and Europe. However, in 2023, it is expected that one
and a half million tons of jet fuel will be produced and delivered by Neste after the company
growth of Singapore refinery.

Another one is World Energy, which is one of the biggest suppliers of biodiesel with the
amount of 200,000 million gallons annual production. Their products are BQ-9000 certified and
Q-RIN verified. They have been recognized by the US Department of Energy and Platts as one
of the first companies to deliver biofuel globally.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND

According to Le Feuvre (2019), the expected global oil demand growth in 2030 by the
aviation industry is approximately 15%. Today, there is around 2.5% of carbon emission, the
continuous growth in the oil demand will increase this emission to 3.5% by 2030. This
significant growth suggests the need to discuss alternatives for jet fuels. Sustainable Aviation
Fuel (SAF) such as aviation biofuels are one of the possible alternatives and solutions to
minimize the increase in the industry’s carbon emissions. The aviation industry has been taking
necessary steps to depreciate the amount of carbon dioxide that is emitted by 50% in 2050, as
collated to 2005. Adding aviation biofuel to fossil jet fuel is a huge help in achieving this goal.
This complements the IEA's Sustainable Development Scenario (SDS) projecting that the need
for biofuel shall be met at a rate of 10% and 20% in 2030 and 2040 respectively.

There are only five airports where there is regular biofuel distribution. These airports are
in Bergen, Brisbane, Los Angeles, Oslo, and Stockholm. In 2008, the first-ever flight using
blended biofuel was conducted. After that, 150,000 more flights were done using blended
biofuel. When it comes to the streamlined nature of air transport fuel, 90% of international
flights are operated by 5% of all airports which says that having SAF in few airports may equate
to the sharing of elated demand. In addition, SDS’s goal to reduce carbon emissions pushes the
industry to require a faster market development to achieve the required SAF production.

Page | 7
Research pursuits are still underway to effectively assess the efficient use of agricultural
residues and municipal solid wastes in the production of biofuel in the long run. These studies
will help in the source of production and it improves the chance to commercialize biofuels. On
the other hand, fuel is one of the highest expenses of airline companies. Today, SAF is more
expensive compared to jet fuel, which poses a threat in the plan to use biofuel. Despite this, it is
suggested that the additional expense in fuel can be taken from the airline’s ticket cost. There is a
15% additional cost for a ticket on a flight that uses blended biofuel such as HEFA. Compared to
other reasons that could cause an additional cost on the plane ticket, an additional cost that will
help reduce carbon emissions isn’t that high.

The utilization of aviation biofuels has been progressing since the first flight in 2008.
But, to reduce the carbon emissions caused by the industry, further technological development
and further economic studies about this are needed. Also, the proposal of policies that would
account for the use of aviation biofuels will help provide stability in the supply and demand of
biofuels during the aviation industry’s transition of its usage.

DESCRIPTION OF THE BUSINESS

PRODUCT/SERVICES

With the increasing number of demands in air travel, an increase in oil demand is also
assumed. The company aims to provide fuel for the aviation industry which will be eco-friendly.

The company seeks to help the aviation industries’ commitment to reducing carbon
emissions by 50% with the help of providing a biofuel that is made out of feedstocks from
agricultural residues.

Since biofuels are made from those resources that are renewable and less flammable, it is
believed to be more efficient than a normal fossil diesel. According to various articles found
online, the pricing of biofuel and gasoline are the same. However, the savings, in the long run,
will be higher compared to the savings when buying a normal fuel.

Another thing is that biofuels are easy to source since they will be made from renewable
resources which in this case are the feedstocks.

Lastly and most importantly, biofuels are helping to reduce greenhouse gases up to 65
percent especially in an industry where the demands are high.

SIZE OF THE BUSINESS

The workforce of Fueler Corp. is composed of 58 employees with diverse backgrounds


and high-caliber professional experiences in the field of marketing, production, financing,
operating, and holistically maintaining a stable market amid a competitive industry of fuel
manufacturing.

PRODUCTION PLAN

MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Figure 1. The Production of Jet Fuels

The manufacturing process is known as the “Alcohol-to-jet process.” It uses the


fermentation of cellulose and sugars. There are actually 3 main steps or stages that should be
done to come up with an efficient biofuel namely: a. Pretreatment; b. Fermentation; and c.
Distillation. The pretreatment phase is a chemical process that is geared towards making simple
sugar out of the complex polysaccharides. It is always necessary to prepare the raw materials
before going into a more complicated process. Pretreatment allows the biomass structure to be
broken into fermentable sugar. It is where the extraction of sugar takes place through the use of a
milling machine. Afterwhich, fermentation takes place wherein chemical reactions occur to
convert the sugar into ethanol. It is usually caused by yeasts or bacteria or even a fermentation
apparatus can also be used. After the fermentation process, the distillation of the mixture comes
next. In this process, the main goal is to separate the pure ethanol from other substances using a
distillation machine. The machine boils the mixture by the heater and then evaporates it to be
condensed at the top of the apparatus and produces the ethanol from the joined tube. This whole
process is known to be cheaper and efficient since feedstocks from agricultural residues are easy
to obtain and the process itself does not require too much energy to be used.

PHYSICAL PLANT

Figure 2. Fueler Physical Plant

MACHINERY AND EQUIPMENT

Figure 3. Machines and Equipment for Manufacturing

The milling machine, fermentation machine, and distillation machine are the three major
machines involved in the production of biofuels. The names themselves suggest their purpose.
The milling machine is necessary to eliminate the excess parts of the raw materials. Whereas, the
fermentation apparatus is responsible for the conversion of the extracted sugar into byproducts of
ethanol during enzymatic reaction. It is primarily composed of two bits of equipment namely the
reagent tank (vessel for the compound to be added in the system) and the reactor tank (vessel for
mixing chemical substances). As such, the distillation apparatus is responsible for separating the
pure ethanol from the mixture. It is primarily composed of three bits of equipment namely the
distillation flask (for heating), condenser (for vaporization), and a vessel (for collection). All of
these three machines are composed of sumps (activator) and liquid storage (repository).

SUPPLIERS OF RAW MATERIALS

DALIG RICE MILL

Dalig Rice Mill is located in Balagtas, Bulacan. It has been providing milling services
since 1990, hence, it is a trusted milling company that provides quality products. We chose the
Dalig Rice Mill not only because of its quality products but also because of its affordable price.

It only sells darak (rice bran) for only ₱10/kilo which is low compared to the price of
other suppliers. In addition, Dalig Rice Mill is only 15-30minutes away from Guiguinto in which
Fueler Corp. is located. Thus, the company’s expenses in transporting the raw materials will not
be that expensive.

SWEET CRYSTALS INTEGRATED SUGAR MILL CORPORATION

Sweet Crystals Integrated Sugar Mill Corp is one of the 7 sugar mills located in Luzon
and is located in Barangay Planas, Porac, Pampanga. The company chose Sweet Crystals
Integrated Sugar Mill Corp not just because of its company reputation, but also because it is the

OPERATIONS PLAN

DESCRIPTION OF THE COMPANY’S OPERATION

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a written understanding concerning the means
and methods that will be used to manage and execute the given scope of the business plan. All
internal and external operations must be planned with utmost consideration given the safety and
efficiency. Thus, the objective of this section is to create a well-developed production scheme
that focuses on speed, quality, and flexibility in line with worker’s rights.

A. 6 M’S OF OPERATION

Page | 13
1. MONEY

The starting capital will start with the personal finances of the six founding members.
The initial capital will then be assessed to determine the size of the loan needed for the initial
phase of the business. After establishing the starting capital and acquiring assets, investors and
business loans will make up the business’ working capital.

2. MEN

For the whole operation of the company, employees will be divided into four main
departments. The finance department will be responsible for the cash management and planning
of expenditures. As such, the marketing department will serve as the facet of the company
handling all the promotional activities of the company. As for the production department, they
will be responsible for managing machinery and manufacturing the products. The human
resources department will manage all the recruitment and training and is responsible for
maintaining employee relations, payrolls, benefits, and compliance with labor laws.

3. MATERIALS

The Philippines has enormous supplies of biomass assets, including farming yield
buildups, wood deposits, animal waste, agro-modern waste, and amphibian biomass. Rice hulls
and other coconut scraps are among the most widely known agrarian wastes that can be utilized
in the production of biofuel. This utilization of economically created horticultural buildups
changed over into biofuels is expanding in the Philippines, as non-renewable energy source costs
keep on rising. Rice husks are maybe the main immature biomass asset that can be completely
used in an inexhaustible and practical way for the production of electrical force, heat, and fuel.
Bulacan which is the possible location of the biofuel plant is still predominantly agricultural,
despite recent massive land conversions.

4. MACHINES

There will be three main machines that are essential for the production of biofuel namely:
a. Milling Machine; b. Fermentation Machine; and c. Distillation Machine. The milling machine
will serve as the first machine to touch the raw materials. It will be responsible for the
pretreatment phase because it will eliminate the unnecessary substances on the materials that are
to be fermented. The fermentation machine is involved in the fermentation process wherein the
conversion of sugar to ethanol substances is made through enzymatic reactions. In the
fermentation machine, there will be two containers named the reagent and reactor tanks
respectively. The former will serve as the vessel for the mere compounds that are to be added to
the mixture. On the other hand, the latter will be the one responsible for mixing the chemical
substances altogether. Also, the refining of the products happens during fermentation since the
machine makes these sugars, oils, or gases into intermediate molecules which will then be turned
into products such as bioethanol. The last machine is known as the distillation machine which is
responsible for separating the purified ethanol from the mixture. The machine has three parts
which are the flask, condenser, and vessel. The flask is responsible for heating the mixture while
the condenser is used for vaporization processes. Heating the mixture will allow the ethanol to
evaporate separating it again from any other unnecessary substances. Lastly, the vessel is used
for the collection of the final product.

Page | 14
5. METHOD

The feedstock is then produced when it has been harvested or collected. The production
of biofuel avionics fuel in particular has two cycles: a. BtL; and b. HEFA. A basic line of the
HEFA interaction (or HRJ) is that biomass such as Green Growth, jatropha or camelina is
squeezed into the oils which then are refined into stream fuel, which refines the unrefined fossil
oil. An additional substance: meal is one of the various results of the squeezing cycle. This food
can also be used in general. For example, the strong accumulations left by the handling of
jatropha can be used as a fuel in flames and oven consumption. The food from the creation of
green growth oil can be used for manure, feed and other purposes and camelina meal can be used
for feeding animals. Then, again, the feedstock is divided through gasification in the BtL cycle
and a combination of the biomass and the hydrogen in a greater temperature range (>700 °C) is
present with a certain amount of oxygen to supply blend gas. The Fischer Tropsch measure then
transforms this gas to a fluid-fly fuel.

6. MANAGEMENT

The management of Fuel Air Corp. will be subdivided into four main sectors which are
the marketing, finance, human resources, and manufacturing sectors. Rheinhallt Carpo and
Amiel Baylon will serve as the overall president and vice president of FuelAir respectively.
Aldwin Caparas will be the head of the marketing sector and will serve as the Vice President for
Production. Jason Braga will be the head of the finance department and will be responsible for

FLOW OF ORDERS FOR GOODS AND SERVICES- CAPARAS, BRAGA, BAYLON

Figure 4. Fueler’s Production Flow Chart

Page | 15
The operation would be capable of producing an estimated 500 liters of biofuels every
day. Our customers are expected to receive the biofuels at their locations. We will provide the
transportation and the cost will be cheaper because our site is near to the customer's location.

Our framework will endeavor to achieve administration greatness as well as assembling


quality items. This is achieved by using state-of-the-art assembly technologies for advanced
manufacturing techniques. This will likewise bring about low creation costs being accomplished
by the organization. We also want to guarantee that our suppliers are dedicated and efficient so
that the end customer is not discarded as regards product quality and delivery time.

Fueler Corporation acquires the majority of its raw materials from providers in the
Philippines. We want local suppliers because we are committed to fair trade and the promotion of
local businesses. As a result, the local communal and commercial producers will obtain raw
materials, including forage stores, livestock waste, agro-moderate waste, cocoon shell husk, and
coconut coir to reduce costs and ultimately help the final user. The significant benefits of doing
so are Higher margins, quicker payments, and lower payment defaults.

Since the raw materials are the ones needed to proceed with the entire process, the
company ensures that responsible people are tasked to verify the accuracy of volume and quality
of the shipment during the non-loading process. The acceptance of quality non-confirming raw
materials will only be raised when the Managing Director who is tasked to analyze them gives
his approval towards accepting these. FUELER expects to use each asset to the fullest
conceivable degree. We understand that there will be plenty of results that will be created from
our creation of the principle product offerings. However, in order not to pollute the atmosphere,
we intend to use by-products as much as possible. This will guarantee that our assets are
completely used.

MARKET ANALYSIS SUMMARY

Projections indicate that over the next few years, global flight and jet fuel requirements
will rebound. With a substantial amount of carbon in the airspace, there is also a need for
environmentally sound energy. In recent years the total CO2 emitted by the aviation industry has
grown rapidly, according to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (2019). In addition, by
world meter, The world has proved its annual demand reserves 46.6 times as much. It has about
47 years of petroleum left. The market incorporates a range of components that generate demand
for biofuels as much as it exists at the moment.

1. Aviation and its clients are dedicated to climate change resolution and use renewable
aviation fuels in the coming decades to minimize carbon emissions.
2. The ITAKA European initiative has also influenced Airbus, which seeks to speed up the
marketing of renewable aviation fuel in Europe.
3. Boeing has dedicated itself to making its commercial airplanes 100% sustainable aviation
fuels (SAFs) certified and able to operate by 2030.

Our company will manufacture Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) regarding the major
changes in the aviation industry that aims to reduce carbon emission in the next decades. We will
focus on our future goals to meet the demand of the market in the near future. We will ensure
that the products that we will produce in the market will follow the required standards of aviation
fuel and ensure the quality of our fuels.

MARKET SEGMENTATION

FUELER is focusing on the air transport and general aviation sector, which utilize more
avgas and intends to use SAF in the future. The air transport sector will range from the airlines
that form a major part of the market to the general aviation industry with fewer trainer aircraft,
our first target on production. These are potential customers who soon support and reduce their
carbon emissions. We are looking forward to offering international airline companies to seek a
shift from the normal avgas they often have to sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).

OUR ADVANTAGES

In comparison with major jet fuel companies, biofuels offer more benefits than jet fuels.
Biofuels work more efficiently with the aircraft’s engines since it improves engine lubrication. It
also extends the engine life because the materials used for its production are more eco-friendly
compared to jet fuels which emit high amounts of carbon dioxide. The aviation industry is also
starting to recognize these advantages making it possible to increase the demand for biofuels
shortly.,

Diesel and gasoline come from crude oil which is known to be a non-renewable resource.
Crude oil prices are starting to rise nowadays, this suggests a need for an alternative source of
energy. These alternative sources of energy could come from feedstocks. This means that the
utilization of natural resources and materials could lead to agricultural growth.

In terms of the other biofuel manufacturers, one of the biggest advantages of our
company is its location. As of now, we are the only biofuel company in Asia that offers
sustainable aviation fuel. Asia is the biggest continent in the world. This implies that there are a
lot of different airports and airline companies that we can negotiate with. Also, being an Asian
Company means we can use it as a marketing strategy to have a bigger chance of gaining the
trust of customers in Asia.

The expensive cost of biofuel production is one of the reasons why it is hard to push the
use of biofuel in aviation. Different airline companies and airports see more of the negative
effect of biofuel rather than its positive effect in a long period. Having a cheaper process in the
production of biofuels results in offering a cheaper price to the market. This means that it can
help the company to obtain more customers compared to other major companies making Fueler
Corp. stand out from the others.

STRATEGY AND IMPLEMENTATION SUMMARY

Fueler’s implementation of products will start by targeting small consumers. One of the
small consumers considered by the company is flight schools. Since Fueler Corp. is a start-up
company, it is also looking forward to producing smaller amounts of fuel at first.

The aircraft used in flight schools only require a lower amount of fuel, unlike airliners
which use greater amounts of fuel. With this strategy, the company will be able to grow from
time to time until it can provide sustainable aviation fuel to every airline company all over the
world.

Page | 20
PRICING STRATEGY

Since the company’s primary ingredients in producing biofuels will be raw materials like
rice bran, sugar canes, and agricultural waste. Our company can afford to set the Biofuel’s price
lower than the price of other competitors’ jet fuel or biofuel. The price of our biofuel will be
cheaper by 5%, but still, the quality of it will be as high as the other biofuels available in the
market.

DISTRIBUTION

The second source of income will be generated from the distribution of the biofuel
products to various aviation schools and airline companies that have large biofuel needs. Fueler
Corporation will work with a courier company that will deliver the products to the clients. The
business will earn a contribution margin of 20% on the company’s distribution and logistics
operations.

PROMOTIONS

Fueler Corp. has a long-term plan to develop distribution networks all around the
Philippines, but to achieve this, we will start to build the reputation of our brand to be well
accepted in Bulacan and other near cities before venturing out. To promote and advertise Fueler
Corp., we intend to use the following strategies:

● Position our billboards and banners in areas where they can be seen by our target
customers.
● Brand all of the official vehicles of the company and ensure that the staff members wear
our branded uniforms regularly
● Use TV & radio stations, and newspapers to promote and advertise our company
● Use of internet and social media platforms like Facebook, Youtube, Instagram, Twitter,
and the likes to promote our business.

ASSESSMENT OF RISK

POTENTIAL RISK - INTERNAL

The possibility of business failure can be derived from the following occurrences: (a)
liquidity and financial risk, (b) failure to hire the best talents, (c) damage to reputation, and (d)
failure to innovate. Each of these risks is explained below.

● Liquidity and financial risk. This may refer to the excessive borrowing of the company
from banks, personalities, or stakeholders given the need for mass production of biofuels
or the demand for effective marketing.

● Failure to hire the best talent. Given a significant number of employees to sustain the
company, the Human Resource department may potentially overlook the employees
during the screening and selection process.

● Damage to reputation. There may be instances where some of the biofuels produced are
of minimum quality. This is primarily due to the inefficient management of the workforce
or malfunctioning/low-caliber equipment and machinery.

● Failure to innovate. Given the first-hand innovation of using agricultural residues, the
company may face the risk of not coming up with more efficient production of biofuels
due to the unavailability of more advanced raw materials such as algae species.

STRATEGIES FOR PREVENTING OR MINIMIZING RISK - INTERNAL

Various risks are present as the business venture continues with its operation. The best
strategy that Fueler Corporation came up with is to appoint a risk management team who will be
tasked to handle risk in internal aspects of the business. The risk management responsibilities
will be duly assigned to the human resource department as this department is truly capable and
efficient in handling conflicts that could arise internally in the business. Of course, internal risks
happen within the workplace which means that the employees are most likely to be involved.
With this being said, the role of the human resource department as a risk management team is to
hire employees who have a good reputation as a person and can be fully trusted in all aspects.
Employment of workers is tasked for the Human Resource department thus making them liable
as well for the risks that could be associated with the hired employees.

RESPONSE TO RISK SHOULD THEY OCCUR - INTERNAL

Given the possible internal risk in the business, the following are the different ways to
deal with the potential risks:

● In liquidity and financial risk, the company will practice proper strategic cash flow
management. Practicing how to manage the cash flow will help us in preventing the

Page | 36
business from being in a position of having trouble paying the company’s short-term
debt.
● In failure to hire the best talent, the company will improve its personnel management
which can help improve the employees’ morale and performance by compensation and
empowerment. Employees who are motivated and enjoy his/ her work tend to be more
productive and improve their performance.

● In damage to reputation and failure to innovate, the company will be consulting


third-party experts to help in bettering our workforce and determining the quality of the
equipment and machinery. In addition, the company will invest in research and
development to help the company not to stop innovating.

Table 16. External Risk Factors

STRATEGIES FOR PREVENTING OR MINIMIZING RISK - EXTERNAL

To manage the company's external risk, Fueler Corporation has developed a sufficient capital
base. A company with sufficient funding can prevent external storms more effectively, external risk
factors include natural disasters that affect normal business activities. In addition, undertakings with
adequate financial resources can take unanticipated risks such as recession or political issues. We will
create our research team to monitor the external risk that might affect the company's operation. The
research team mainly focuses on the strategies to prevent problems early before it affects the business
operations and will provide the best solution for the company based on the business vision, mission and
values.

RESPONSE TO RISK SHOULD THEY OCCUR - EXTERNAL

1. Avoid. This is a retrospect of regular activities that can remove risks.

a. Modify the scope of the job.


b. The objectives of the task should be modified.
c. Clarify the need for ambiguities and misunderstanding to be dispensed.
d. Eliminating specialized hazards gaining capacity.

2. Transfer. This includes transferring the risk effect to a third party. Protection, guarantees or
execution bonds may be used by direct techniques. Aberrant strategies such as contracts with
unit value in place of a single amount, legitimate conclusions, etc.

3. Moderation. Decrease the risk probability or effect. This is generally understood and
accompanies a value which should be adjusted to the advantage of the mitigating activity.

4. Agree. There are risks to all commitments. At a minimum, it runs the risk of failing to
achieve its objective. This should recognize certain dangers. The toleration of risk is like a
certain technique and should, like any other methodology, be archived and imparted.

PROBLEM

Projections have shown that the global demands for flight and jet fuels will recover in the
next couple of years. The economic health of the aviation industry is greatly implicated due to
the limitations imposed by the COVID-19 pandemic. Given a set of health precautionary
measures implemented by the government and various authorities worldwide, domestic and
international air travel is at its ultimate minimum. Numerous flights have been banned equating
to a massive loss in total airline revenue. The depreciating income of various airlines exposes the
need for a less expensive source of flight and jet fuels.

Given a significant amount of carbon in the airspace, the need for ecologically sound
resources also prevails. According to the Environmental and Energy Study Institute (2019), the
total carbon emitted by the industry of aviation has rapidly increased in recent years. There was a
21% surge in carbon emission starting from 2013 to 2017 tallying 710 million tons and 860
million tons respectively. In 2018, 2.4 percent of the world’s carbon dioxide emission came from
the field of air transportation. While the current rate of carbon emissions dropped significantly
due to air restrictions and strict implementation of rules, the possibility of climate change can
still be foreseen. Such a significant carbon deficit is sought to be maintained through the aid of a
sustainable source of aviation fuel.

Conclusively, problems involving the huge demand for economic and environmental
aviation fuel should be complemented.

SOLUTION

Given the need for sustainable resources, the proponents seek to identify the possibility of
feedstock as a potential source of economic and environmental aviation fuel. Feedstocks are
biological and renewable raw materials that are used to produce goods and other products
through industrial processes. These can be easily converted into the so-called biofuels which are
energy-producing fuels generated through processing waste from both human and animal
activities.

As flight operations gradually recover, the demand for sustainable biofuels would
definitely reach its peak. With this foreseen instance, numerous airlines will consider buying
inexpensive sources of fuels from a limited number of manufacturers. The Philippines, as an
agricultural country, is rich in different varieties of feedstocks ranging from plant oils to
agricultural residues. The availability of such resources becomes the primary motivation for the
development of aviation biofuels.

There are in-demand manufacturers of biofuel around the globe, especially in first-world
countries. In the Philippines, biofuels are primarily generated from sugarcanes in small batches
which increases the total cost of fuel production. Considering all these, the proponents aim to
utilize all types of agricultural residues as the main material to maximize the production of
sustainable fuel. An aviation biofuel manufacturing company should be established in order to
achieve such a goal.
