A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines Keywords: marketing analysis, profit maximization, supply chain, technical, allocative and economic efficiency. F I. Introduction ood and beverage processing is an important aspect of the country’s economy. It is considered as the most dominant manufacturing sector contributing 58 percent of the total manufacturing output, and 20 percent of the country’s gross domestic product (Macabasco, 2011 and Roache, 2009). In 2010, processed fruit and vegetable exports amounted to US$386.76 Million with an average yearly growth of about 7% for the period 2006 to 2010 (Philippine Food Processors and Exporters Organization, 2011). Major processed fruit export includes prepared and preserved fruits accounting for 53% of total fruit exports, while concentrates and dried fruits represent roughly 47% of export demand. Export projection requires an additional production of US$ 129 million worth of processed fruits and vegetables by the year 2015 (PHILFOODEX, 2011). One of the Philippine’s advantage in the industry is the abundance of different variety of fruits and vegetables. The country ranked as the second largest producer (HortiASIA, 2007) and third largest Author α σ : Marketing Management for Agribusiness Enterprise School of Management University of the Philippines Mindanao. e-mail: alexanderlibranza@yahoo.com II. Background of the Company and the Industry Among the most popular processed products from Mindanao are banana chips and dried mango, as well as purees of mango, papaya and pineapple. These products has been drawing buyers for market exchange all over the world, according to an article in PhilStar.com. Durian however, as a known commodity from Mindanao, is not in the list since durian is more popularly consumed fresh from its husk (DTI, 2009). In addition, this situation can also be associated with the limited supply of the fruit due to the declining number of local durian growers in Davao Region (SunStar Davao, 2013), the very high cost of the fruit itself, and the lack of information and support system for the specific fruit processing sector. Still, the durian processing industry is an important driver of local economic development. The industry provides employment for Micro/ Home-based production, while large scale production contributes to the country’s GDP. Two of the leading cities that popularized durian and durian processing are Davao and Tagum City. Davao City is considered as the durian republic of the region (SunStar Davao, 2013), while Tagum City has Durian Festival celebrating the bountiful harvest of durian each year. Emerald Durian Palace, located in Tagum City, Davao del Norte, is the leading durian processor in © 2014 Global Journals Inc. (US) Year Exporter (PHILEXPORT, 2012) of fresh fruits and vegetables in Southeast Asia. However, due to the basic nature of agricultural commodities like perishability, bulkiness, seasonality and difference between raw and final form, several products lose their value during the marketing process. These products are either sold at a very low price or considered as a production waste. Fruit preservation and processing emanate as a solution to this dilemma. Driven by the need to increase the usable life of fruits and extracting all of its economic potential, this industry has evolved from a micro/homebased enterprise into a key player in the country’s agribusiness system. Fruits can be preserved by either freezing and drying the fruit, or processing its meat into various final forms like candies, pastries, jams, and a variety of beverages. 25 Global Journal of Management and Business Research ( E ) Volume XIV Issue IV Version I Abstract- Food and beverage processing is considered as the most dominant manufacturing sector in the country.

Results suggest that the company is also loosing 27% of its production associated with over-production wastes and not being able to meet the demand of the market. The researchers recommend to decrease the cost of production associated with unsold inventories and increase their sales revenue by following the recommended production level. Several marketing strategies were also formulated to provide a sure market for products and a fast-moving inventory. 2014 Alexander Ken Paulo Libranza α & Hazelle Kaye Abaro σ Year 2014 A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines Global Journal of Management and Business Research ( e ) Volume XIV Issue IV Version I 26 2 Tagum City. Established in 2006 making only durian jams, the company now has over ten homemade durian goods such as tarts, pastitlas, empanada, hopia, polvoron, yema, cookies, cake, Brazo de Mercedes, roll, pie, pudding and buns. Their products has been distributed all over the city, through their very own plant and distribution center, in the malls, schools and several commercial and business centers. These products are also being sold in department stores and outlets in Tagum City, Davao City, Cebu City, Zamboanga City, and Cotabato City. Emerald Durian Palace stands in the production concept of “real durian” – which is processing raw durian meat into various products but keeping the quality and satisfaction consumers get from the actual durian fruit. In this type of production, durian meat is processed into various final products with least, or none at all, flavoring, extenders, and preservatives. Emerald Durian Palace was also given Award of Excellence from Davao City’s Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Inc. for their durian jam being one of the accredited brands that has achieved the minimum criteria and qualifications for quality and safety standards. The main source of the company’s raw durian came from its own farms composed of 50 hectares and 6000 durian trees. This assures the quality of their inputs to production, and also gives them comparative advantage than other processors. Occasionally, they buy durian fruit from other farmers but this only amounts up to 10 percent of their production. This is done to utilize the surplus of the farmers, and those that are slightly damaged and over-ripe which are considered unmarketable to consumers. The durian fruit is processed in their own plant that has acquired new technologies and techniques to assure the quality and efficiency of production. In the plant, the product is graded, labeled and packed accordingly. The assurance of the Halal certification makes all of their products accessible for Muslim consumers. Also, their plant serves as their distribution center that is located along the high way which is accessible to consumers passing-by the city. The processed products are distributed in department stores and outlets, which includes schools, airports, and ‘pasalubong’ centers all over Mindanao. The company also hosts a Durian Pastry-making contest as part of the celebration of the city-wide Durian Festival. The pricing of the products are categorized into plant price, dealer price (stall price), and standard retail price (department store price). Figure 1 : Supply Chain of Processed Durian Products III. Definition of the Problem and Objectives The market itself is characterized with similar but differentiated products. Producing products with the highest quality, as pure and natural as possible, is complemented with a higher price compared to similar products offered by competitors. The company is also producing in bulk or by box which is associated with higher market price when sold in distribution outlets.

Methodology a) Quantitative data analysis To quantify the performance of the company’s current production, technical, allocative and cost efficiencies were measured using Data Envelopment Analysis. A constant-return-to-scale under input-oriented approached was assumed in this study. Input-oriented focuses on minimizing production inputs while maintaining the same level of output. i. Computation of Profit Profit is simply defined as the total revenue less than the total costs (Danio et. al, 2008). Based on the given data on production cost (durian inventory and labor cost), administrative cost and marketing cost, the total expenditure incurred by the company was computed. Furthermore, the total revenue was obtained based on the sold quantity multiplied by its corresponding price. ii. Model Formulation The LINDO Application Programming Interface (API) was used to conduct and optimal solution 1. Year Analysis. Optimization helps find the answer that yield the best result; attains the highest profit, output or happiness; achieves lowest cost, waste or discomfort (LINDO API 6.0 User Manual, n.d.). In this research, LINDO-API was used to obtain the optimal production rate (recommended quantity that yields the maximum revenue) of the company. Considering the quantity produced and the demand for each products, the model for the revenue maximization for plant outlet, and supermarket price were formulated. The results obtained from the three models were added to determine the optimal production and revenue for the over-all production. The following variables were used in the formulation: DBN – Durian Buns DJ – Durian Jam DMF – Durian Muffins DBZ – Durian Brazo DR – Durian Roll DPT – Durian Pastillas DPI – Durian Pie DPV – Durian Polvoron DT – Durian Tarts DS – Durian Sampler DCW – Durian Chewies DCK – Durian Cookies DY – Durian Yema MC – Merigue Cake DPD – Durian Pudding DIB – Durian Inipit Bar DGD – Durian Goodies 27 In modeling the production of the firm, three prices were considered based on the location of the distribution center. Plant price is the price provided at the plant, which is equal to the outlet’s price. SRP are prices provided in supermarkets which incurs and additional 15-20% commission. Derivation of total production is based on the assumption that 50% of total production proceeds to the outlet store, while 25% goes to both plant display center and supermarkets. Moreover, the objective function formulated were the following, as based on the average prices of each products at plant price, dealer price and SRP (Appendix 2). Plant Price – 6 DBN + 289 DJ + 150 DM + 300 DBZ + 295 DR + 105 DPT + 275 DPI + 55 DPV + 128 DT + 38 DS + 84 DCW + 30 DCK + 45 DY + 280 MC +6 DPD + 50DIB + 260 DGD Outlet Price – 6 DBN + 289 DJ + 150 DM + 300 DBZ + 295 DR + 105 DPT + 275 DPI + 55 DPV + 128 DT + 38 DS + 84 DCW + 30 DCK + 45 DY + 280 MC +6 DPD + 50DIB + 260DGD SRP – 6.90 DBN + 332.35 DJ + 172.5 DM + 345 DBZ + 339.25 DR + 120.75 DPT + 316.25 DPI + 63.25 DPV + 147.20 DT + 43.70 DS + 96.60 DCW + 34.50 DCK + 51.75 DY+ 552MC +6.90 DPD + 57.5 DIB + 299 DGD Using the derivation of the objective function, the maximum amount of finished products that can be sold at the each price group can be obtained. This is the constraint for the finished products affected by percentage of product sold at the price group. © 2014 Global Journals Inc. (US) Global Journal of Management and Business Research ( E ) Volume XIV Issue IV Version I A monthly average of 20, 299 units were manufactured by the company for 2013. However only 18, 453 units of the total production were sold each month (Appendix1). Meaning, about 11% of their production becomes waste which were not sold before it spoiled. This means that the company is losing 9% of its revenue and could still improve its production by 16 %. The best solution is to decrease their cost of production associated with unsold inventories, and increase their sales revenue by recommending strategies to market their goods. The main objective of this study is to conduct a marketing analysis on the production performance of Emerald Durian Palace. Specifically, this paper aims to identify the recommended quantity that yields the maximum revenue and profit for the company. Also, the research targets to provide appropriate recommendation to decrease unsold inventories, and increase the sales of the company. Results of this research can provide prior information regarding the industry, and could be used as a future reference to those who wishes to continue the study. This might also be a guide to those who wants to venture in this kind of business. 2014 A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines 2.

Global Journal of Management and Business Research ( e ) Volume XIV Issue IV Version I 28 2 b) Qualitative data analysis The results of the study are further analyzed and integrated using SWOT Analysis and Matrix, and the PACS Matrix. These analyses were used to clearly discuss the internal and external market factors of the durian fruit processing industry. V. Results and Discussion Table 2 shows the technical, allocative and cost efficiency of the firm for its production in 2013. In general, the firm is technically efficient and it is least in cost or economic efficiency. In the 12-month period, December resulted to an efficiency score of 1.000 for the 3 efficiencies, which means that production is at its best in this month. This could be caused by the increase in demand for pastries and sweet-delicacies during the holiday season, and the low production of the durian fruit during the months of December to January (Chung, n.d.). Off-seasons for the fruit (from September December) would imply that avid consumers would tend to buy the processed form, while for processors this implies a significant increase in the price of the durian meat input (Deportment of Internal Trade – Thailand, n.d.). Table 2 : Monthly Technical, Allocative and Cost Efficiency of Emerald for 2013 Month January February March April May June July August September October November December Mean Minimum Maximum Technical Efficiency 1.00 0.95 0.95 1.00 0.99 1.00 1.00 1.00 1.00 0.94 0.96 1.00 0.981 0.94 1.0 a) Technical Efficiency The firm is technically efficient in the months of January, April, June, July, August, September and December. With the mean of 0.981 for the year 2013, this means that the firm is able to produce the maximum outputs given the set of inputs. The firm is least technically efficient in the month of October, which is when the effect of the off-season, during September, is harshly felt. Then from November to December, the firm begins to cope to the new situation. © 2014 Global Journals Inc. (US) Allocative Efficiency Cost Efficiency 0.91 0.91 0.90 0.90 0.92 0.91 0.90 0.92 0.97 0.97 1.00 1.00 0.934 0.90 1.0 0.91 0.86 0.85 0.90 0.91 0.91 0.90 0.92 0.97 0.91 0.96 1.00 0.916 0.85 1.0 b) Allocative Efficiency Allocative efficiency indices are varied at very close margins and shows very positive results, obtaining a total mean of 0.934. The firm is most efficient in the months of November and December, which means that the firm in this months is efficient in terms of using its inputs in optimal proportion given their respective prices. This could be explained by the fact that the firm is already adapting its production in response to the low production of durian fruit. March and July, however, c) Cost/ Economic Efficiency Results of the cost efficiency also show positive figures for the firm with a mean of 0.916. The firm is efficient in terms of cost for the month of December, which means that the firm is able to produce maximum outputs at the lowest possible cost. The difference between sales and actual production is lowest at 7% in contrast to other months. (Appendix7). This means that their production is almost equal to the demand of the market. This further implies lower inventory, and lower surplus cost. This is supported by the increase in demand for sweet-delicacies during the holiday season, and the popularity of pastries (especially cakes) for family gatherings and reunions as evaluated by Xi (2012). On the contrary, the firm is least efficient in terms of its cost in the month of March, which is due to the same reason as the decrease in allocative efficiency. Also, the high supply of durian meat during this month could have overwhelmed the firm’s production without taking into account the cost for each unit of goods produced. Unsold goods also adds to the cost of production.

(US) Year d) Recommended Profit Maximizing Production Level Table 3 presents the recommended profit maximizing output quantities and the firm’s current practice. Result suggest that the firm could still improve its production by 27%. Products buns, muffins, pastillas, pies, polvoron, tarts, sampler, chewies, cookies, yema, pudding Inipit bar and goodies were over-produced, meaning their actual production is more that their recommended production level. The excess products becomes additional inventory, and when unsold after its expiration date, adds to the production cost. On the other hand, products jams, Brazo de Mercedes, Durian cake roll and Meringue cake were under produced, meaning their actual production is less than is recommended level. Losses can also be incurred when the demand of the market is not meet. Consumers look for alternative source of products who will be able to provide their needs when they need it. Lower revenue can also be associated to the under-produced goods since the full capacity for sales were not fully utilized by the firm. Following the recommended quantity of products obtained from optimization, Emerald can earn a maximum revenue of Php 1,632,461. With its current practice, the firm is losing Php450, 000 sales revenue, and incurs an additional 10% cost associated with production wastes. This means the firm can earn as high as Php 1,120,696.10 which is 45% higher that the company’s actual profit. 29 Global Journal of Management and Business Research ( E ) Volume XIV Issue IV Version I resulted with the lowest scores. This could be due to the high demand for their products during March as ‘pasalubong’ for the summer/vacation season, and the beginning of the Durian Festival in Tagum City in July. This could imply that in this months, the firm is concentrating on producing more to meet the demand of the market without taking into account surplus of production for unsold goods which becomes additional costs. 2014 A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines Year 2014 REVENUE 391288.2 782156.2 Cost Profit 459016.9 i. Marketing Strategies to Increase Sales The main problem observed by the researchers is the surplus of production sustained by the firm. Production in bulk or by box also contributes to this problem since most consumers are price-oriented and prefer to buy in smaller quantities. Also, the company is facing financial and marketing constraints penetrating markets for processed durian products in Davao City and nearby regions.

Retailing would also help increase sales especially in outlets located in malls and business centers. Joining product expos to endorse their concept of “pure durian” will help increase consumer awareness of their products. Lastly, they should maintain their quality standards which would create their mark in the industry. A Marketing Analaysis on the Production Performance of Emerald Durian Palace, Tagum City, Davao Del Norte, Philippines Year 2014 PACS Matrix VI. Conclusion and Recommendations Food and beverage processing is an important aspect of the country’s economy. The industry contributes 58 percent of the total manufacturing output, and 20 percent of the country’s gross domestic product. However, due to the seasonal nature of agricultural commodities several products lose their value during the marketing process. These products are either sold at a very low price or considered as a production waste. To address this problem, this study was conducted which aims to evaluate the production performance of Emerald Durian Palace, to identify the profit maximizing production quantity to decrease surplus-associated costs, and recommend strategies to increase sales. Based on the result of the study, the current production of Emerald Durian Palace is at an optimal level, but it could still improve by 16% to attain maximum revenue. The company is also loosing 27% of its production because of over-production which becomes an additional inventory, and when unsold after its expiration date, adds to the production cost; and for some products when the demand of the market is not meet by the actual production. Results of optimization suggest that the company should produce at the recommended units per month to earn a maximum revenue of Php 1,632,461 which is 27.83% higher than the original revenue. This means the firm can earn as high as Php 1,120,696.10 which is 45% higher that the company’s actual profit. The researchers recommend to decrease their cost of production associated with unsold inventories and increase their sales revenue by following the recommended production level. Several marketing strategies were also formulated to assure that the recommended quantity level is meet. Product: Diversifying their production by introducing a new product like durian juice or any durian beverages. Retailing their products by making their products available in smaller packs would also help in decreasing inventory. This will ensure a fast-moving inventory and would decrease costs associated with unsold goods. Price: Appendix 8 shows an optimal pricing policy for each products of the company. This entails that the company could start pricing its products at the recommended level, and decrease it up to the actual price as per the consumer’s request; whether by quantity discounts (for customer purchasing in bulks), loyalty discounts (for frequent customers), sale discount, and for whatever purpose it serves the business. Also, this provides the company information how they would price their products during peak seasons and periods of low sales. They could lower their price on some months so that demand would be maintained or to minimize losses. Place: Coordination with tourismestablishments like hotels and restaurants to offer and display their products. This will provide a sure market for products, especially when the goal is to decrease the inventory and unsold goods. Promotion: Joining Trade EXPOs and joining activities in nearby cities to promote products. Also, they should endorse their concept of “pure durian” to increase consumer awareness of their products. For future researches: A market analysis on the market segmentation of the firm should be conducted. This would better understand the distribution of the company’s production and how they distribute their products among their distribution centers. © 2014 Global Journals Inc.
