The owners business is production industry with the aim of producing dairy products of highest
quality.
Technology
The sponsor intends to start with medium exotic breeds animals which customers less but high
production and then upgrade to high yielding breeds with high production by use of artificial
insemination technology.
2.1 CUSTOMERS
From the research I found out that most people do not get milk from their beverages preparation
due to few producers and irregular suppliers who are few in the region and few external suppliers
from other regions.
Also several schools, institutions are available and do not have enough milk to gather for their
needs. This includes High view academy, Miracle Academy, Nandi Hills Girls High School,
Nandi Hills district hospital. Included also are teachers who teach in these schools and other
private institutions. Those who work in district headquarters offices inclusive of police force in
their residing camps.
i. The product should in the market in due time i.e. very early in the morning and in the
evening.
ii. High quality products i.e. clean milk.
iii. Moderate prices.
2.3 COMPETITIONS.
MANIA DAIRY FARMS dairies expect competition from the following firms
CENTO DAIRY FARMS expects to overcome this problem by ensuring high quality products is
made available in due time.
The competitors constitutes on production of “maziwa lala” that they sell outside the region as
far as Western region and North rift region hence low milk left to be used for domestic use for
beverages in neighboring areas is few.
My business will concentrate on satisfying this surrounding neighbor with products of high
quality (milk) then later we expand to produce more by-products like milk powder, yoghurt that
is affordable to surrounding customers that our competitors put less concern on.
Still strategizing on an educational campaign to customers on the importance of using fresh milk
and working in collaboration with District Agricultural Officers to provide seminars on how to
use the upgraded new breeds for mass production. By accepting to host field demonstrations and
by so doing I will have to create awareness to public how I run my business to improve dairy
farming in the region.
