Aztec Food Imports

Executive Summary

Aztec Food Imports (Aztec) will offer food product imports from Mexico to meet increased demand for these product by the city’s growing Hispanic/Latino community in the greater Richmond area. Over the last five years, this community has grown by 70%,  and represents half of the Richmond Metro population (250,000).  Aztec has been successful over the competition in supplying imported mexican food products to the area’s two PriceRight supermarkets.  From this base, Aztec will build a successful business serving the area’s large and small markets.

1.1 Objectives

  • Establish Aztec Food Imports as the number one importer of mexican food products in Richmond.
  • Increase the number of mexican food products being carried in local markets by 20% over the next two years.
  • Build solid working relationships with the purchasing agents of the local stores serving Richmond’s growing Hispanic/Latino population.

1.2 Mission

Aztec’s mission is to supply Mexican food imports to Richmond stores which are currently being poorly served by importers located over 150 miles away. Raymond Garcia, co-owner of Aztec, will utilize his importing background, his experience in the food retail market, as well as his contacts in Mexico to bring in products that area customers demand.

1.3 Keys to Success

The keys to success in Aztec’s business are:

  1. Offering items of a high quality-value relationship which are not available everywhere. This is essential for maintaining the niche market sectors mentioned in the mission statement.
  2. Reliable and timely deliveries. Aztec must make good on its delivery promises. Because of the nature of doing business in Mexico, this requires long-range planning in scheduling orders, taking into account Mexican business practices.
  3. A reliable administration that is ready to serve customers, prepare accurate billing, follow-up on orders and other documentation, and maintain a close watch on expenses and collection of accounts receivable.

Market Analysis Summary

The Hispanic/Latino population in the Richmond Metro area has grown by 10% over the past five years. The current population stands at over 100,000.  It is projected that the population will continue its growth pattern for the next five years and will eventually reach over 160,000.  A majority of these inner-city residents live in family groups of six or more members.  The average household income for the area is $32,000.

There are four major supermarkets that operate in the area and over 50 smaller food stores that serve the metro communities. Last year, the four major supermarkets grossed over $150,000,000 in sales. There are plans to build additional supermarkets in the Richmond Metro area in 2003 and 2004. Two of the current supermarkets in the Richmond Metro area are part the local PriceRight chain.  PriceRight is planning a new store in the area in 2004. 

Though it is difficult to know the exact sales figures for the small markets in the area, traditionally, the community residents have been supportive of the smaller store if their prices are competitive. Last year, Wilson Foods Imports grossed $1.5 million in sales with smaller markets in the Richmond Metro area.

4.1 Market Segmentation

Aztec Food Imports will serve all retail food outlets in the Richmond Metro area. These include neighborhood markets and supermarkets.

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4 Year 5
Potential Customers Growth CAGR
Supermarkets 20% 4 5 6 7 8 18.92%
Neighborhood Markets 20% 50 60 72 86 103 19.80%
Other 0% 0 0 0 0 0 0.00%
Total 19.74% 54 65 78 93 111 19.74%

4.2 Target Market Segment Strategy

Aztec Food Imports will have two distinct marketing approaches:

  • For Neighborhood Markets: Raymond will promote a small group of popular mexican food products that are likely to move fast in smaller stores.  These products will be priced to be attractive to the small store owner.  Once successful, Raymond will expand the product group. 
  • For Supermarkets: Raymond will promote the complete line of products that Aztec can provide.  Aztec prices will reflect a stronger import connection in Mexico that will results in lower prices and more product.

4.3 Main Competitors

Currently, Acme Food Importers located in Wilsonville supplies the Richmond area food stores with imported mexican food products. Wilsonville is 150 miles north of Richmond.  Only in the past two years has the demand for these products grown sufficiently to impact Acme’s ability to satisfy demand. Besides the distance, Acme is plagued with weak import connections in Mexico.  These factors contribute to the high wholesale price of Acme’s imported products.

Strategy and Implementation Summary

Aztec Food Imports will focus on becoming the leading provider of wholesale imported mexican food product in the Richmond Metro area.

5.1 Competitive Edge

Raymond Garcia and Jose Arroyo are the competitive edge of Aztec Food Imports. Raymond has worked for both Acme Food Imports and Wilson Food Imports over the past eight years.  In his last position with Wilson, Raymond imported mexican food products to numerous markets in the southwest. He generated sales in excess of $2 million annually. His strength is his customer relations and he has been successful in expanding the range of imported mexican food purchased by the markets in his sales region.

Jose has been a shipping agent for M. Zegarra Exporting located in Mexico City for the past ten years. The company exported $20 million of products to the U.S last year.  Jose’s responsibility was to eliminate the shipping obstacles and oversee the timely delivery of product to the U.S.

5.2 Sales Strategy

Aztec Food Imports will have two distinct sales approaches:

  • For Neighborhood Markets: Raymond will promote a small group of popular mexican food products that are likely to move fast in smaller stores.  These items will be packaged as a group at an attractive price.  Raymond will make frequent visits to these stores to build a strong working relationship that will lead to more purchases.
  • For Supermarkets: Raymond will promote the complete line of products that Aztec can provide.  Aztec prices will reflect a stronger import connection in Mexico that will results in lower prices and more product. Raymond will promote new seasonal products and provide assistance on marketing the products to the Hispanic/Latino community.
