INTRODUCTION

Ice manufacturing has started in early this century. Prior to these factories ice was

imported from the mountains, at a very high financial cost, and did not last too long due

to temperature. But these new factories started producing three to four tons of ice per

day. This was enough to support the population more so than ever before. Ice was

preserved over the warm summer months by packing the ice in saw dust for insulation.

Instantly the ice business became big business.

Many entrepreneurs started investing money in formulating mechanical refrigeration at

an economical cost. Interest in ice making equipment was at full force in the early

twentieth century. Uncertainty of supplies, great fluctuations in price and sanitation

standards made natural ice obsolete to the artificial product. Ice making equipment and

refrigeration processes spread throughout the country. Ice making equipment became

crucial for long distance shipments of perishables.

Ice preservation in the home, though, was still not up to par at this point, but that only

benefited the manufacturers. Ice was not a cheap product either. In fact it cost more

than many meats and dairy products.

Ice manufacturing caused a shift in many familial practices. Household foods could be

preserved for longer periods of time, Prior to refrigerators and iceboxes basically all

foods had to be consumed on the spot. Ice cream, cold beer and many other food

products that needs to be chilled. The regular availability of ice and iceboxes also gave

the mother of the family more leeway in culinary practices.

Page 3: Ice Plant Study

In 1920, the industry ranked ninth in amount of investment among America's

commercial enterprises. But the advent of the home refrigerator collapsed the industry.

By 1925 little remained. Giant ice houses stood vacant along rivers and lakes. It is a fine

example of an industry that underwent massive growth and importance to economy.

Project Brief

The subject document provides details about an ice plant. Major products are ice blocks

and the like. However, the plant is also capable of extending its product range to

manufacture other forms to accommodate consumer needs.

The feasibility study forms the basis of an important investment decision and in order to

serve this objective, the document/study covers various aspects of project concept

development, start-up, and production, finance and business management.

Opportunity Rationale

Most of areas of Philippines have long duration of summer due to which demand for ice

is high for 2 months of the year. As Philippines is a developing country and large portion

of the population cannot afford refrigerators for domestic use. Another growing market

for ice plants are industries linked to food products i.e. fish, dairy, bakeries, restaurants

etc. With this growing demand a large number of ice plants are operating in the country.

There are approximately 700 plus ice plants operating in Manila, catering to the needs

of different institutional and domestic buyers. The total installed capacity of ice plants in

Manila is approximately 232, 672 –tons of ice blocks per day. The need of ice blocks is

increasing due to economic growth, as major buyers are institutional buyers (dairy,

bakery, hotel, etc.), who buy in bulk.

ORGANIZATIONAL STRUCTURE ANALYSIS

The president of the company will serve as the head of the whole establishment

although he/she still has to be dependent with the owner in making decisions with

regards to major affairs of the business. He/she will implement the tasks to be done by

the employees. The president has a direct authority over his or her subordinates. Under

the president are the other personnel such as the Gen. Manager and secretary. Thus,

the Gen. Manager has the direct responsibility of looking over the performance of

his/her subordinates, such as the accountant, production supervisor and the sales

supervisor. Each of these 3 is classified depending on the subordinate’s tasks.

Accountant is in charge for the performance of the bookkeeper, cashier and billing clerk.

The sales supervisor is for the area of selling for the performance of its salesman. And

last is the production supervisor which has the overview of the work of the retreading

company, where the workers of the tire are under. The inspector, buffer, skiver, repair

man, thread applicator, curing specialist and the quality control.

RECRUITMENT & SELECTION

1. POLICY STATEMENT

APL DY is committed to a fair and effective recruitment and selection process that

efficiently and effectively attracts and acquires the high calibre of employees required to

fulfill APL DY ’s objectives, whilst having regard for all individuals concerned. Along with

recruiting able, motivated and suited individuals for vacancies within APL DY , this

policy ensures that existing members of staff are given the opportunity to develop and

progress their career within APL DY . In order to achieve these objectives, APL DY will:

• Review its recruitment and selection procedures regularly in light of changes in

employment legislation and best practice

• Monitor each recruitment and selection exercise, assessing results quarterly

• Offer training and coaching to all individuals involved in the recruitment and selection

process, including training on recruitment and selection techniques and on the

importance of equal opportunities throughout the process.

2. ETHICAL FRAMEWORK

Page 13: Ice Plant Study

APL DY ’s full commitment to the policy of equal treatment of all employees and job

applicants is set out in APL DY ’s Equal Opportunities Policy. Working alongside that

policy, APL DY ’s recruitment and selection procedures aim to ensure that:

• Candidates are treated fairly and not discriminated against on the grounds of sex,

race, religion, age or disability.

• Candidates are treated courteously and honestly. They will be given all the information

they need about the company and the role so that they can make an informed decision

about whether or not to accept an offer of employment.

• Good professional practice will be followed in interviewing, selecting and using tests –

results of such tests, along with interview feedback, will be carefully and considerately

fed back to those candidates who want to know how they performed in lay terms.

3. RESPONSIBILITIES FOR RECRUITMENT & SELECTION

APL DY ’s procedures, whilst being managed centrally by the Personnel team, allow for

departmental and management involvement and consultation through the entire

recruitment and selection process.

The Personnel team will handle much of the recruitment and selection activity, in order

to take advantage of experience and economize on effort:

• To provide a reference point for communication, external queries and applications.

Page 14: Ice Plant Study

• To standardize communication and to reinforce APL DY ’s corporate image, enabling

consistency of advertising style, effective cost control and maximum media buying

power.

• Potential spotted in candidates may not be appropriate to the post for which that

individual applied, but may be relevant to another vacancy.

• The volume of administration and the need for specialist knowledge of the changing

legal and employee relations requirements mean that a specialist function may be more

effective.

Management and departmental involvement is key to an effective recruitment and

selection process through:

• Establishing contact between the manager and applicants early on in the recruitment

process, leading to improved short listing and self (de)selection.

• Ensuring that department and functional staffing needs are closely met.

• Enabling continuous personal development, through utilization of the transferable skills

developed through involvement in recruitment and selection.

4. PROCEDURES

This policy recognizes the individuality of each role within APL DY . Therefore the

recruitment and selection procedures to be followed allow for a degree of flexibility and

provide scope to tailor each recruitment and selection exercise to its particular vacancy

and the needs of the recruiting department/team. The Personnel team will involve the

nominated contact(s) of the recruiting department throughout the recruitment and

Page 15: Ice Plant Study

selection process and will be available to advise on the recruitment and selection

methods available, and the process to be followed at all times.

5. PART-TIME WORKING AND JOB-SHARING

APL DY encourages flexible working practices that allow staff to achieve a reasonable

balance between their personal and working lives. All recruitment within APL DY will be

considered for both part-time working and job-sharing. Both internal vacancy bulletins

and external advertisements will state whether or not a position is suitable for part-time

working and job-sharing.

6. INTERNAL RECRUITMENT

All permanent and fixed-term appointments will be advertised internally in the Internal

Vacancy Bulletins. Internal recruitment does not circumvent equal opportunities

legislation or APL DY ’s equal opportunities policy and the procedures for recruitment

and selection detailed in this policy must be adhered to. Internal applicants expect, and

are entitled to, the same treatment as external candidates. Therefore no internal

candidate will be subjected to favorable or unfavorable discrimination throughout APL

DY ’s recruitment and selection.

7. TEMPORARY RECRUITMENT

Recruitment for temporary vacancies within APL DY may be considered as

developmental and present learning opportunities for existing staff. These temporary

Page 16: Ice Plant Study

assignments enable staff, with the required abilities and skills, to experience working

within a different role or team. The position left vacant by the internal ‘temporary’ will be

filled, on a temporary basis, by either internal or external means. The responsibilities of

the internal ‘temporary’ along with their departmental needs will be taken into account,

and the assignment will be discussed between the Personnel team and all managers

and individuals involved, before any such assignment is undertaken. If no suitable

internal applicant is identified for a temporary position within APL DY , the Personnel

team will then seek to fill the vacancy by alternative, and possibly external, methods.

8. THE APPOINTMENT PROCEDURE

All offers of appointment are subject to the receipt of two satisfactory references, one if

the successful candidate is known to APL DY e.g. through a recruitment agency or

secondment, and work to date has been satisfactory, and a satisfactory health

questionnaire being received.

9. REFERENCES

The Personnel team will take up written references, following approval from the

successful candidate, enclosing a copy of the job profile for the role. These references

will then be reviewed by the Personnel team and the manager of the appointee.

References will normally be sought from a candidate’s current or most recent employer

and one previous employer. Personal, or character references will only be considered

when two employment references are unavailable, e.g., young people new to

Page 17: Ice Plant Study

employment and in cases where individuals have been out of the employment field for

some time. Where the candidate is reluctant to allow employment references to be

taken up, full reasons should be given in writing to the Personnel team who will, in

consultation with the manager of the post in question, give consideration to their

objections.

10. FAILURE TO APPOINT

If a recruitment and selection process has been unsuccessful, the Personnel team will

discuss, and advise on, the next step in the process with the departmental contact(s)

involved in the selection.

Where it is decided that the vacancy should be re-advertised in another publication,

previous applications or short listed candidates will not be interviewed/re-interviewed for

the same post as this would be contrary to the process developed to ensure equality of

opportunity. Any subsequent advertisement will include a statement indicating that it is a

re-advertisement and the previous applicants need not apply,for this reason.

CODE OF CONDUCT

INTRODUCTION:

This Code of Business Conduct covers a wide range of business practices and

procedures. It does not cover every issue that may arise, but it sets out basic principles

to guide all employees and officers of the Company. All of our employees and officers

must conduct themselves accordingly and seek to avoid even the appearance of

improper behavior. The code should also be provided to and followed by the Company’s

agents and representatives. In addition, Company policies apply to various Company

operations and you need to know and follow those policies that apply to your Company

work.

Those who violate the standards in this code will be subject to disciplinary action,

including possible dismissal. Furthermore, violations of this code may also be violations

of the law and may result in civil or criminal penalties for you, your supervisors and/or

the Company. If you are in a situation which you believe may violate or lead to a

violation of this code, follow the procedures set out in Section 19 of this code.

The basic principles discussed in this code are subject to any Company policies

covering the same issues.

1. COMPLIANCE WITH LAWS, RULES AND REGULATIONS

Page 34: Ice Plant Study

Obeying the law, both in letter and in spirit, is the foundation on which this Company’s

ethical standards are built. All employees and officers must respect and obey the laws,

28

rules, and regulations of the cities, states, and countries in which we operate. Although

employees and officers are not expected to know the details of each of these laws, rules

and regulations, it is important to know enough to determine when to seek advice from

supervisors, managers or other appropriate personnel.

2. CONFLICTS OF INTEREST

A “conflict of interest” exists when a person’s private interest interferes in any way, or

even appears to interfere, with the interests of the Company. A conflict situation can

arise when an employee or officer takes actions or has interests that may make it

difficult to perform his or her Company work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of

interest may also arise when an employee or officer (or a member of his or her family)

MARKETING ASPECT

Marketing, more than any business function deals with customers. Creating

customer value and satisfaction give the heart of modern marketing thinking and

practice. Marketing is a social and managerial process by which individuals and groups

obtain what they need and want through creating and exchanging products and value

with others. In order to increase the demand structure of the product, which leads to

Page 53: Ice Plant Study

consumer's satisfaction, careful planning and execution of concepts, promotion, pricing

and distribution of goods are vital.

Therefore, it is important that a market study and survey be conducted to determine

the viability and workability of a proposed business venture, in terms of its product

distribution, pricing and the possible return of investment. The market study defines the

circulation status of the proposed project when actualized in the real market. In this

study, the proponents gave their insights about the following:

Description of the company

Demand

Supply

Relationship between the demand and supply

Description of the price of the product or service to be sold

Factors affecting the market

Appropriate marketing program for the product

43

MARKETING STRATEGY

Marketing program is the end of a market study. We have to be good enough in dealing

with this marketing program for the success of our business depends much on it. Since

our business is a retreading we have to study the different strategies in order for this

business to exist.

One of it is to have promotion. We choose to be in a newspaper advertisement since we

consider that mostly professional people would prefer to read newspaper than listen

Page 54: Ice Plant Study

radio or even watch television. We also offer a free delivery to selected customers who

would avail our service in big volumes. We consider this as a promotion since the

existing retreaders do not offer the same.

Noting starts until a sales is made, no matter how will organized your production is, no

matter how good your shop layout is, no matter how good your quality is, no matter how

much money you have, you still not be successful corporation until you have an

aggressive, well organized marketing program that gets results.

FINEST CORPORATION has one of the best organized sales producing marketing

programs in the industry today. It takes you all the way from determining the market that

is available to you, to getting the order.

1. FINEST CORP. provides a way to find prospects in your area by a name

and address.

a. Within your assigned area there is a great variety of prospective customer.

Each one must be located, evaluated, and called upon with definite plan. We

catalog your prospect. The very things that you need to know most are:

1.) What users are in your immediate area?

2.) How large are they?

3.) What kind of equipment do they use?

b. The best sources for this information are: local classified section of the

telephone book, state vehicle registration office, the Chamber of Commerce,

the Trines Blue Book, local trucking associations. 44

c. With our help you will be able to make up an inventory sheet of potential customers which

could look something like this:

NAME OF CUSTOMER

(CEBU BASE ONLY) NUMBER OF BRANCH

APPROX PAIRS OF SHOES

PER MONTH

GAISANO MALLS 8 5,000

AYALA CENTER 1 2,500

Page 55: Ice Plant Study

SM CITY 1 2,500

SCHOOLS 3 3,000

TOTAL

13,000

2. FINEST CORPORATION gives you a way to organized your salesman’s time

and calls. A complete call and sales record.

a. A commercial sales follow-up card for every prospect. Each card should be

filed out as completely as possible with data obtained from all available

sources and actual sales calls. Get an expandable file or any filing where you

can set up 31 separate days for each month. Plan your work, placing the call

cards for each day in their correct place. This then allows you to get your

appointment set and meetings scheduled far enough ahead to plan your sales

approach. Upon completion of the call you will be in a position to set your

follow up by specific days. The new information can then be entered on the

card and placed in the correct day for the next call. RECORDS in this sales

business are ESSENTIAL.

b. The Call and Sales Record Sheet is for listing alphabetically each account.

This provides a record of each call, not only on the prospect card, but also on

the Call and Sales Record Sheet. It will show exactly where your sales activity

is concentrated. By listing the amount of sales per call on any given account,

it soon will become evident where you salesmen are spending most of their

time and what they are accomplishing. This will enable you to more

intelligently direct your people into areas and accounts that need a greater

concentration of sales effort. 45

c. The daily report of calls is for listing each call made. This is a daily report that

has columns for a name and address of the account called upon,

miscellaneous comments, and amount of order secured.

Page 56: Ice Plant Study

3. Tuckers open house.

Complete the instructions have been developed for you to make your open

house a real profit maker.

One of the most reasons for success in any marketing program is

enthusiasm. Enthusiastic salesmen just naturally work harder, study harder, and

try harder. They are more receptive to and eager for suggestions and they inject

fun and excitement into their sales presentations.

Page 57: Ice Plant Study

TARGET MARKET

Customer or potential client is one of the most important elements of our business.

Without customers, our business is nothing; it will leave to be. “Treat your clients well

and they will come back time after time but upset them once you may have lost them for

life.” Many businesses are formed in the belief that as soon as they begin to trade then

the customers will come. In reality nothing could be further from the truth. Knowing and

understanding who our customers are, will be crucial.

“It takes less effort to keep an old customer satisfied than to get a new customer

interested.”

One important factor that influences the success in a business is to be able to

DEMAND

Our target market is most specifically to customers who don't have enough money to

buy brand new pair of shoes or who want to save money. Since money is so precious,

sometimes it is more practical to save, to have more income to spend on other

important expenses.

SUPPLY

There is only one Shoe Company near our area. As far as our survey is concerned, we

are not far behind with them since our firm offers a service which they don't have; that is

the free delivery depending on its location to be delivered and the number of order of

shoes. Although there are some requirements in availing such a service, we can still be

sure that we can also compete with the old ones and would even more provide services

as competent as possible.

SUPPLY AND DEMAND ANALYSIS

With the increase in the number of individual in need of quality shoes and only limited

number of shoes company have existed in North Reclamation Area Cebu City, it is clear

that the present tire retreading company can no longer cater the serving needs.

Although there are some shop which do not encounter difficulty in serving the customer.

However, there are those who said that they are not able to offer the quality service

which the customer expected.

Due to this reason, the FINEST CORPORATION was built to cater the demand which

other shoe company cannot offer.

PRICE STUDY

In business, price is very essential for it is the basis in determining the demand-supply

situation. Through it we can be able to know the status of our business whether it is

earning or loosing.

We are first considering the price of our competitors. In order not to be left behind, we

are just making our price almost at the same level as theirs.

MARKETING PROGRAM OR STRATEGY

Marketing program is the end of a market study. We have to be good enough in dealing

with this marketing program for the success of our business depends much on it. Since

our business is a laundry shop we have to study the different strategies in order for this

business to exist.

One of it is to have promotion. We choose to be in a newspaper advertisement since we

consider that mostly professional people would prefer to read newspaper than listen

radio or even watch television. We also offer a free delivery to selected customers who

would avail our service in big volumes. We consider this as a promotion since the

existing laundry shops do not offer the same.

TECHNICAL ASPECT

LOCATION

In an ideal world every business would be located where it could achieve maximum

profit with a minimum cost, but as we do not live in such a world then our location must

be chosen with the utmost care. The task of finding the right location can be very

difficult. The nature of the business will have a great bearing on the location. So we

chose to locate our business at North reclamation Area Cebu City. Our prospective

markets are customers who are willing to save money and save their old tires.

LOCATION FACTORS

The proponent chooses the area at North Reclamation Area Cebu City. The area is

wide and large enough to build for the planned are of the building. The area is

accessible with cars and trucks. It has a better supply of water needed for the plant. It

doesn’t have plenty of houses to be disturbed by the noise created in the plant. Waste

management is good enough for the location it’s because the area is an industrial place.

It would be a good area for customers for having a good space for delivery; it’s also

near to SM mall and SM hyper mart where customers can leisure around while waiting

for their tire being recapped

province. Cebu City is also the center of trade.
