3. Overview of the situation →
As the machines are adding convenience to this
world and the jobs are turning out to be more
sedentary, delivery of goods and services at the
doorsteps is of utmost importance and many
companies are growing just by satisfying this
small need of the customers. With the same
perspective, I am showing you people the new
food delivery app which is capable of dominating
the market in its very first year, OPFoods!!
4. Company’s goal →
Our goal is to provide people with a fast
and free food delivery system which can
even alleviate some of the taxes which
makes the customers step back from
ordering at home. The goal will also
include information and entertainment.
5. Proposed Course of Action →
The main source of revenue and tax alleviation
will be advertising other firms on the food
containers and reusable glasses given for the
delivery. Along with this, the best quality of
customer service, control and coverage will make
this app reach the top of the segment in no more
than a year.
7. Company Overview →
The app(company) will be positioned in food
delivery conveniences. There are existing big
guns in the market such as Swiggy, Foodpanda,
Zomato but none has the tax alleviation feature.
We have to hire some delivery executives to
deliver in the test market i.e. Mumbai and launch
the app next month to invite corrections and
shortcomings.
8. Market Overview →
The market for this positioning is growing
steadily and people are now preferring home
delivery even at higher prices than the direct
purchases. The youngsters and working
professionals aged 18-35 years will be our core
customers. If the app succeeds in its goal, then it
can even act as a change of taste for families and
middle class people. The potential competitive
responses must be countered carefully.
9. GOAL →
The goal of the company in the first year
is to achieve the breakeven and reach
the top of the popular
apps/recommended apps in all the app
stores.
11. Target Market →
1) Customer - We can focus on their me time and provide the
professionals with ease of food delivery at best price.

reviewed in a day, will be provided.
13. Revenue →
The revenue collected from advertising will be
used in various ways viz, compensating the
restaurants(sort of commission) as their footfall
will decrease, alleviating the target tax amount
from the food orders, promoting the app itself
using various communication channels and
paying off the salary of the employees.
15. Product →

amounts of food ordered.
2) It will provide relevant and required advertisements and

Over-Powered-Foods) will be our

company. As the name suggests, we will be over-
