In connection with the 68th-anniversary celebration of Liceo de Cagayan University,

Nestle's Hub will open for three days of sales in the SAC Building on the Liceo de Cagayan

University-Main campus. The site was selected by the Grade 12 ABM 1 committee because

it regularly draws the types of customers that Nestle's Hub can be sure will purchase its

products. A food kiosk, as defined by Guirgen (2018), is a tiny, movable booth that is usually

found in shopping centers or busy city streets. It is employed in high-traffic regions. It

occupies little space and only requires one or two employees to offer the goods. Moreover,

the business team operating under the name "Nestle's Hub" and its staff will uphold their

commitment to providing clients with high-quality, fresh, and delectable food products at a

reasonable price while displaying customer service. 

  
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 4
The business committee at Nestle's hub is working to achieve a successful outcome

for this predicted business study plan, especially in terms of obtaining the proper return on

the assets that will be made for this performance task. This hub includes a variety of food

products.  Dynamite from the hub, with not just one but two robust fillings (pork and

chicken) to choose from, will unquestionably and deeply set your day ablaze. Your day will

pop and burn like there is no stopping with an Oreo pop from the hub, which offers a broad

variety of delectable and eye-catching toppings to pick from. Finally, a blue lemonade drink

that refreshes the throat makes a great pairing with the spicy Dynamite. The hub must make

revenue on the 68th anniversary of Liceo's founding, where they must market their goods for

at least three consecutive days to break even on their costs. Hence, Nestle's Hub is a food cart

company that sells spicy and sweet products that are suitable for all kinds of clients and will

undoubtedly leave them with a pleasant and satisfied feeling. The cost of the product has

been determined by its size, quality, and flavor. Nestle's hub stall will be situated in an open

space in Liceo de Cagayan University-Main Campus, where it will be visible to all sorts of

patrons and creatively provide them with sanitary and secure goods. 

Product Overview  

Products for sweet and spicy treats are available at Nestle's Hub and are wonderfully

delicious and cheap. The grade 12 ABM 1 committee leaders desired to establish a student-

friendly business that offers distinctive goods for sale and would enchant every Filipino,

particularly young people, to uplift their spirits. Products from Nestle's Hub line provide the

body with a variety of health advantages. Jimenez (2022) describes dynamite food as a kind
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 5
of food that is both packed with nutrients and low in calories. Dynamite foods are high in

fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. It supports weight loss, digestive improvement,

and immune system stimulation. Dalal claims that Oreo pops are a rapid supply of

carbohydrates and a good strategy to stave off hunger. This delectable treat is essentially a

chocolate-covered Oreo on a stick with beautiful sprinkles or decorations to give them a

candy or lollipop appearance (Arora, 2014). The company's goods are particularly distinctive

because Nestle's Hub is the only vendor in the location where the three-day product sale is

taking place who sells dynamite with cheese fillings and Oreo pops. The crew values the

satisfaction of every customer the business encounters, so the products are carefully prepared

and created with tenderness.

In addition to mouth-watering cuisine, Nestle's hub kiosk included tasty specials and

the chance to win a picture card made possible by Oreo and Blackpink's collaboration. The

customer must purchase one of Nestle's Hub's Oreo pops to receive this Blackpink photocard.

If a star on the stick catches your attention, you'll instantly receive a photo of a random

member of Blackpink. To earn points for their entrepreneurship or other MBA-related

subjects—which are exclusively applicable to students at the Liceo de Cagayan University

RNP Campus—they must purchase at least one product each day for three consecutive days

using the loyalty card provided by the Hub.

Product Description

2. Add pepper and salt to each kind of meat (chicken and pork). 

3. Use a knife to mince the garlic and onion and grate the carrots. 

4. Cheese should be cut into long strips to match the chili. 


Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 7
II. Getting the chili ready 

1. Be careful to properly wash the chili. 

2. To prevent burning while slicing the chili lengthwise, wear gloves. 

3. Remove all the seeds by utilizing a teaspoon. 

III. Wrapping and Rolling of the Dynamite: 

1. The chili should have cheese within, with meat on top. Be sure to fill just enough to
prevent overstuffing the chili with meat as it would spoil the wrapping procedure. 
2. Put the chili on top of the lumpia wrapper and roll it, carefully. 

3. Making a paste out of water will secure the lumpia wrapper. 

IV. Cook the Dynamite 

1. Pour a lot of oil into a saucepan and turn the heat on. 

2. The dynamite is deep-fried. 

3. It is prepared when the hue turns golden brown. 


4. To get rid of extra oil, be certain to strain it. 

5. Serve it on a paper plate with mayonnaise and catsup on top.  

Moreover, these are the methods used to make Oreo Pops. 

I. Creating a Chocolate paste 

1. A bowl should be set on top of a pan of boiling water.

Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 8
II. Prepare the Chocolate Coating 

1. In a saucepan, place a glass of water, and bring it to a boil. 

2. Chocolate should be cut into tiny pieces. 

3. Put a dish containing chocolates on top of the boiling water using the double boiling
method. Consider not letting the water touch the bowl's surface to prevent the chocolate
from becoming too hard. Let the moisture of the hot water melt the chocolate. 

III. The Oreo’s coating 

1. Put a tiny quantity of chocolate paste on both sides of the biscuit and let it stick to a
popsicle stick. 
2. Apply the chocolate covering on the Oreo. To prevent damage, take care not to shatter
the cookie. 
3. Sprinkle the Oreo Pops with different toppings. 

4. Cellophane and attractive ribbons are used to package the product. 

To guarantee that the sales process runs well, the company has put in place an

operating procedure that clients must follow. At the assigned cashier, the consumer must first

put their order. The consumer must next go on to the payment stage after finishing their

order. When payment has been received, the cashier will relay the order to the kitchen. The

client then has to wait in the designated area until the cook calls the server to let them know

their order is ready. When the order has been prepared, it will then be served to the client.  

Cooking Equipment

Equipment Description

 Electric Stove This electrical appliance is used to conduct


heat so that the dynamites can be deep-fried.
A sufficient amount of oil was then added
once the deep frying pan had been heated on
the electric stove.

 Deep Frying Pan .

To deep fry our dynamites, oil is heated in a


deep frying pan. The oreo pops were further
made using this.

 Spatula For the purpose of ensuring even distribution


of the chocolate, this is used to coat the oreo.
A bowl of chocolate was also mixed with this
to ensure a smooth texture.

 Mixing Bowls Here, components for oreo creation are


placed as well as a mixing bowl for
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 10

chocolate.

 Freezer Once the oreo pops are prepared, they must


be frozen and placed inside a freezer.

 Containers The oreo pops should stay frozen, and we


need to use a container because of the
temperature where we are. The ice for the
tiny juice we sold is also stored inside, along
with the oreo pops.

 Air Fryer We have two methods for cooking dynamite:


one is for cooking chicken dynamite and the
other is for cooking pork dynamite. in order
to prevent mixing. This is done so that the

quantity.

Additionally, the mark-up will be added by multiplying the mark-up rate by the unit

price. Each product has a different mark-up rate due to their distinctive process, with this the

mark-up rate varies conditionally. Therefore, the selling price for labuyo is 17 pesos (40%

Mark-up), oreo pops 16 php (45% mark-up), and juice 15 php (35% mark-up).

Lastly, the promos are acquired by adding the price per serving to the indicated

number of pieces, then deducted few amounts not more than 5 pesos.

Management Team 

According to Online Manipal, management has a variety of functions inside a

business. Each organization needs managers to accomplish its objectives. They serve as the

foundation of every business and are responsible for making sure everything works properly.

Whether an organization succeeds or fails relies on how successfully its managers carry out

their duties.

THE INDUSTRY

Industry Overview   

Here in the Philippines, the food industry is one of the major contributors to the

country’s economic growth. According to Flanders (2018), for imported food and beverages,

the Philippines is a dynamic and growing market with a total imports of consumer-oriented

products exceeding US$ 1B annually. Also, the consumption growth is underscored by the

expanding economy of the Philippines that is expected to continue to grow at an average rate

of 6-7% in 2018-2022 as well to remain one of Asia’s top growth performance. With this, the

food and beverage sector accounts for 10% of the gross domestic product which results in

being one of the major contributors to the country’s economic growth. According to PSA

(2022) from the 2020 Annual Survey of Philippine Business and Industry (ASPBI)

highlights, in Region X, Accommodation and food service activities with a share of 10.8% of

the total industries, has 934 number of establishments which implies the stability of the

industry contributing to the economic growth of the region. 

Moreover, implementing a small business like this limits a few risks, especially

financial risks. On the other hand, Nestle’s hub functions as a partnership of food industry

business and is operated by G12 ABM1 students. Since it will happen during a school event

it is confident enough that it will have numbers of customers to buy the products.

Furthermore, there should be a solid design for the business, it should be able to work during

the intense competition since there will be more stalls selling during the event.  

 
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 20
It is vital to conduct an industry overview to understand and foresee possible

outcomes and even problems that may occur during the opening of the business. Moreover,

this will help the entrepreneurs to create strategies for common problems and threats from its

competitors, uncertainties, weaknesses and minor casualties. Hence, this will impose

guidance on how a business should work.  Lastly, with the proper management and sets of

standards the vision, mission and purpose of the business will be justified; bonus will be a

high return on investment and profit. 

  Furthermore, 12-ABM1 is determined to pursue Nestle’s Hub due to its feasibility in

terms of its funding and management. Because of this it is easier for the owners to produce

the products to sell since it is attainable to make, aside from that, the installment of the stall is

accessible since it is located in a school vicinity. The team perceives that this set-up and plan

is attainable specially for young entrepreneurs/students who are thinking of doing a small

food business. Additionally, below is the table with the details and analysis of the market size

of  Nestle’s Hub.

The table above emphasizes the market size of Nestle’s hub. In the first table it has

the list of customers per day from days 1,2 & 3; with customers of 80, 120, and 140 ( which

are rounded numbers). Furthermore, the total number of customers is about 340 during the

three day sale. Moreover, the amount they are willing to spend is identified by adding the

prices of products sold which are Juice (₱15.00), Dynamite (₱ 17.00), and Oreo Pops (₱

16.00); then divide it to their quantity which is three—which equates to ₱31.00 (finding the

mean). On the other hand, the second table identifies the market size of this small business by

multiplying total customers to their amount willing to spend. Therefore, the estimated market

size is ₱ 10,880.00. However, this number may change due to different factors that may

affect the purchasing power of the customers, may include; daily allowance, marketing

strategies implemented, personal preference, satisfaction of customer, etc.

Competitive Analysis 

The food industry is highly competitive, with each business providing something

unique. In order to survive, the sellers must create something unique or take advantage of the

prices. There are already competitors in the area offering cheaper food products than Nestle's

Hub. There are also businesses that sell food that is similar to but not identical to Dynamite

and Oreo Pops, and these businesses are indirect competitors of the business. The dynamite 

and oreo business is popular among all age groups, from various economic classes and

backgrounds. To be successful and sustainable in this industry, the owner must ensure that

the product has a focus concept and a unique business concept. In order to have repeat

customers, it is also necessary to sell a high-quality product at a reasonable price.  

Any business will always face competition. It is a part of the market where companies

compete with one another for customers, food quality and authenticity, and profit, which is

the primary reason for launching a company. As it was the university's foundation day, the

team had a lot of competition from other students who had food stalls, including the grade 11

ABM 1 and 2 from the RNP campus. ABM groups from the main campus also go to display

and market their goods. For instance, Ba Bun food stand is a prominent rival because of its

cheese hotdog on a bun, which is very well-liked at that time. The drawback is that they

charged a high fee of 55 pesos, which is not in line with most people's budgets. The street

food truck, which sells items our Dynamite is well acquainted with, is another formidable

rival. The drawback of this food truck is that they charge a hefty price of 35 pesos for the
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 23
food combo, and their sauce is also not too exceptional. The team encountered several more

food booths and stalls while at the event. The team took some steps to investigate and

comprehend certain situations in which the competitor might threaten certain aspects of the

business. To avoid undermining the opportunities pursued by Nestle's Hub business, careful

planning and critical thinking of potential solutions or actions must be implemented. The

company will provide the customer with customer service that exceeds their expectations, as

well as the high-quality products they desire at a very reasonable price.

 Business Strategies 
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 26
The company's business strategies and tactics must be outlined in every business plan,

which is a potent instrument for assisting in achieving the objectives. Some of the

organizational decisions, including recruiting new personnel, are influenced by the business

strategy. Boyles (2022) stated that a company's success is based on its business strategies. It

provides businesses with a competitive edge and aids executives in setting corporate goals. It

decides on several business aspects, such as price, suppliers, hiring new employees, and

resource allocation.  

During the three-day sale of the items, Nestle's Hub employed certain business

strategies. One of them is the food combination strategy, where items are purchased in larger

quantities at a reduced price, offering the customer financial savings and the seller additional

sales. Another strategy is customer retention strategy. Customers were given a loyalty card

by Nestle's Hub, which helps the seller retain customers by giving a certain benefit to the

buyers upon availing of this card. 

Operations and Management Plan 

 A vital component of an organization would be providing a physical demonstration

of the opportunities that the business can seize for growth, development, and improvement of

the overall management. This does guide whenever it involves handling all aspects of a

particular business's operations, as well as the components and factors that influence the

company's success. A successful business location can draw in and keep customers. Nestle's

Hub strives to create an excellent conclusion for this projected business study plan. The
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 27
booth will be located in an open-air location at the Liceo de Cagayan University's Main

Campus, where it will be accessible to the public and visible to all types of customers,

enabling it to effectively offer them sanitary and secure products. Nestle's Hub will be

available for three days of sales in the SAC Building on the Liceo de Cagayan University-

Main campus as part of the 68th-anniversary celebration of the institution. The location was

chosen by the Grade 12 ABM 1 committee as it consistently attracts the kinds of consumers

that Nestle's Hub aims for.   

The Nestle’s hub operating hours start from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. The students allocated to

morning and afternoon shifts are divided by the G12 ABM 1. Smith (2014) asserts that

certain businesses don't necessarily need concern about their location when it comes to

marketing and/or advertising. This leads to a marketing strategy that the committee will use

when selling the goods. The products will be sold not only at a particular location or stall, but

also anywhere on campus, as assigned students will roam the campus during designated

shifts and offer the products to anyone who may be interested in purchasing the snacks.  

Given that the business is a component of the students' performance task,

administrators have given the business team permission to set up a booth on campus. The

sales and regular business activities will be handled by a minimum of 2 people. This is done

in order to reduce the number of personnel handling sales for the company, as there are still

other crucial elements that must be taken into account in order for it to operate smoothly.

These include buying raw materials and managing daily financial operations. The founders of
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 28
the grade 12 ABM 1 committee wanted to create a student-friendly business that sells

innovative products that enchants every Filipino, especially young people, to lift their spirits. 

Marketing Strategies 

Marketing strategies are the plans that are made to fulfill the business’ goal and

objectives. These strategies are critically thought to ensure that the business is in

advantageous position in terms of pricing, product quality, place where the business will be

positioned, and how the business will promote its products and services.  Accordingly,

Nestle’s Hub marketed its products by giving out fliers, promoting through social media

platforms, providing competitive prices and promos to attract customers, and positioned its

booth right beside where people consistently walked by. Moreover, the cooking team ensured

the quality of each ingredient and the products themselves are well prepared and are made

with safety tools to guarantee the cleanliness of the procedure and the products.   For detailed

information, the following lies as marketing strategies performed by the company Nestle’s

Hub. 

1. Product Advertisement 

 For this marketing strategy, the business particularly boosted its products through

giving fliers, posters, and providing loyalty cards. Through fliers and posters, the business

was able to be introduced through summarized and interesting layouts and designs to

persuade the target market in knowing about the products Nestle’s Hub offers. Moreover, the
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 29
posters and fliers were promoted by the school which helped the business to be known and be

considered as one of the booths to be visited.  Also, having loyalty cards as one of the

marketing tools to be used helped the business to have constant customers that are interested

in getting their rewards if they successfully completed the task which only can be valid until

the last day of the event. Through this, the business had the customers to be assured that once

the tasks have been completed, rewards will then be given. Which means, the business not

only earned the trust of the customers but also gave back to the customers. 

2. Social Media Boosting 

Nestle’s Hub has an official Facebook page where the business first introduced its

products and the business itself. Various posters and game mechanics were posted in the

page to inform the customers through this online platform on what Nestle’s Hub has to offer

and to add up the excitement and experience of the customers when visiting the booth and

purchasing its products.  

3. Word of Mouth 

Nestle's Hub uses social media platforms to disseminate product information and

invite fellow students from various academic strands to purchase and taste the delectable

Oreo Pops and Dynamite. The product sold well throughout its three days of sales, with the

first day seeing an earlier-than-anticipated sellout of all products. Those in charge of cooking

and serving consumption made the decision to prepare more of the products to sell on the

second and third days, particularly the product that customers typically seek out and
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 30
purchase. Without having trouble coming up with a product to sell, it sold out with even

higher revenue than the first day. In addition to the booth sales, the team also walks the

campus in an effort to attract customers and make sales. In product sales the seller came up

with an idea that if a customer purchases Oreo Pops, they can pay 16  PHP to choose a piece

of jumbled paper to get a chance to win a BlackPink photocard. This offer keeps customers

coming back, and it works. Aside from the offer, the customer should not be concerned about

the pricing because the items that will be sold start at 16 Php.  

4. Competitive Pricing 

Competitive pricing is used to attract customers and improve sales by selling products

and services at a price that can be considered reasonable and fair when compared to similar

products or services supplied by other businesses in the same industry. One of the primary

benefits of competitive pricing is that it can assist firms in gaining a competitive advantage in

the marketplace. Businesses can attract additional customers and expand their market share

by offering prices that are comparable to or lower than those of their competitors. This can be

especially beneficial in highly competitive industries or when customers are particularly

price sensitive. Which the finance team consider the place and the target market. The finance

team comes up with the idea that the target market can buy the product if they have enough

money. Selling the goods one at a time is not enough for the buyer, who will question

whether it is worthwhile buying them, therefore they came up with a strategy in which they

sell the product in twos and can save money if the consumer purchases one at a time. As a

result, price-sensitive products play an important role in addressing the requirements and
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 31
expectations of customers, who are becoming more price-sensitive and discerning in their

selection of products and services. Service providers can establish a loyal customer base

while fostering financial awareness among the target market by delivering reasonable and

based-on-value goods. 

Sales Strategies 

1. Promote a Unique Selling Point 

One of the most important parts of any business plan for running a successful food

cart business is having a unique selling point. Establishing this for Nestle's Hub is critical to

its success in the food market since it assists in drawing more customers and distinguishing

the brand from its competitors. Nestle's Hub intends to differentiate itself from the other food

carts on the market through a variety of means. Nestle's Hub food cart will have a unique and

outstanding logo that is easy to remember and associate with what we are offering, an

exciting opportunity that offers customers worthy prizes such as the chance to win a

Blackpink photocard, a creative and memorable tagline, and a loyal card that will tempt

customers to purchase again because they will receive benefits.  

2. Offer Food Combos 

Creating combo meals is an excellent approach to increase the consumer base. This

will serve as the business' competitive advantage to other sellers as it offers cost-effective

pricing for the customers. By bundling products together, Nestle's Hub can offer a lower

price compared to when purchased separately. This will also simplify the process of selling
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 32
and ordering the product. Instead of purchasing items separately, customers may order a food

combo which includes what they want. Additionally, rather than preparing food separately

and selling each product, employees will be able to speed up the process by producing

combinations. To elaborate on this, the business team intends to make food combos out of

our products which are dynamite (chicken and/or pork) and oreo pops. We will provide a

combination of two pieces of dynamite for 30 pesos, which is cheaper than a piece of

dynamite costing 17 pesos if purchased individually, along with a combo of three pieces of

oreo pops for 45 pesos, which costs less than a piece of oreo pop costing 16 pesos if

purchased alone. Customers will not only get wholesome food at a reasonable price, but they

will also be enticed to buy more since they can save money. 

3. Endorse the brand and its products 

Building brand awareness will be beneficial for the promotion of the business'

products. With endorsing, it will be easier for customers to recognize the business logo. This

will reinforce the products offered on their minds and if choosing to get foods, they will

likely think of Nestle's Hub's products. The business team will make use of social media

platforms to stay connected with loyal customers while also creating unique content that will

attract new customers. By having a good brand, the business can have a great reputation
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 33
imprinted, and establish credibility, trust, and loyalty towards customers. The business team

will not only incorporate the brand name into the products, but also into the personnel.

Wearing consistent apparel with the company logo distinguishes Nestle's Hub from

competitors and makes it simpler for customers to remember. 

4. Sell outside the stall 

Building relationships with clients by interacting with them outside of the stall might

be beneficial. Increased consumer loyalty and repeat business may result from this. In order

to boost awareness to potential customers who might not have otherwise seen Nestle's Hub,

the business team will sell the products inside and outside the stall. They can catch attention

and entice people by selling outside the stall while roaming around the campus. In this way,

the team may have the chance to upsell customers on further items by selling outside the

stall. 

5. Increase Production    

Increasing production can help Nestle's Hub fulfill high demand and keep customers

from switching to rival products. If there is a demand for oreo pops and dynamite, the

business team will increase the production for the following day. This enables a business to

reach a wider audience by being able to provide its goods to more customers, which can

support the creation of new sales prospects and a rise in revenue. Additionally, if Nestle's
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 34
Hub boosts production and makes its products more widely available, this can aid in

increasing brand recognition. There may be an increase in word-of-mouth advertising and

customer loyalty, both of which may assist generate new sales opportunities.

Financial Reports 

Behind every success of a business is a structured capital requirement. According to

Investopedia (2022), capital is the source of operation of a business that is essential for the

day-to-day function–this is powered by money as its monetary equivalents. In line to this, the

Nestles Hub required capital that will sustain the function of the business for the three-day

selling. This startup money is then used to invest and supply the required supplies and

expenses needed.

Financial Strategies

considering the goals of the business enterprise. It describes important factors influential to

operate demand and supply, customer feedback and identify difficulties encountered in the

process of implementation. 

Here are some important factors that we consider as we launch our business :

 Price – It is the amount that buyers/ customers willing to purchase for finite

quantity and quality of product. Affordability with high-quality that guaranteed

customer satisfaction. 

 Promotion- The uniqueness of the product that make it more marketable and

profitable. 
Liceo de Cagayan University Senior High School Department Page 37
 Quality service – The most important gesture of assuring consumers chose to

spend their money to the certain product that gives complete package. 

Financial Projections 

A key component of every major or small company plan's core, particularly for those

just starting out in the business world, are financial predictions. As a result, a qualified

financial analyst has to be knowledgeable and capable of analyzing, comprehending, and

identifying viable plans or activities that the company may use to maximize profits. Keeping

this in mind, the Nestle Hub’s finance team met to analyze and brainstorm various business

factors and variables that may have an impact on the company's financial situation and

endanger its ability to operate.
