INTRODUCTION

Industry Profile

Gibbs Hot Wings is in the food service industry. According to the 2015 Annual

Survey of Philippine Business and Industry (ASPBI) released by the Philippine Statistics

Authority (PSA) in October 2018, there are 27,028 establishments that engage in

accommodation and food service activities, with restaurants in the lead at 6,652

establishments in total (24.6% of the total number of establishments). Fast food chains

come in second, with 4,477 establishments (16.6%), followed by refreshment stands,

kiosks, and counters at 3,772 establishments (14%). The report also shows that the food

service industry has generated a lot of income; in fact, the food service industry has a

total income of PHP 471.3 billion. Restaurants are the major contributors, with a total

income of PHP 158.1 billion (33.5%); fast food chains contribute PHP 144.8 billion

(30.7%).

This figure shows that the food service industry is definitely booming and it

continues to improve through the years. The food service industry, as observed, is

strongly influenced by the current fast-paced lifestyle of Filipinos in the country. With

the increasing purchasing power of the consumers today, the demand for convenience has

also become stronger, which has establishments in the food service industry expanding

and building networks to cater to these markets.

According to Stephen Dutton, a consumer food service associate from

Euromonitor International, chicken fast food was the strongest retail format in 2016, with

a growth rate of 8% and a total global sales of $65.6 billion. Chicken, as mentioned in an

4
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

article on BusinessWorld, has a universal appeal - unlike pizza or burgers, which are

regional-specific. Every place in the world serves chicken, and chicken can easily adapt

to the preferences of local consumers in any particular region. In fact, in the Philippines

alone, Jollibee Foods Corporation is the market leader of chicken fast food - with a total

sales of $1.67 billion in 2012, followed by McDonald’s Corporation with $533 million

total sales.

customers. they can use events as another marketing strategy to attract customers and

promote brand equity.

Threats: Everything has its end. As well as technology, such as computers that keep files

can be damaged. there will always be times that technology can be unreliable.

Economic

Opportunity: With Gibbs' place in the market, gibbs can make promotions that can cater

the other inhabitants of the market, thus competing in the lower scale.

Threats: Since Gibbs' is known for its high price, competition can actually capitalize on

this weakness by lowering its prices. Inflation may affect the prices on raw materials.

stalls or pop up shops to events around the city. This provides the brand more exposure to

its consumers.

concerned. Gibbs' has made sure that the customers remember the brand. The company

has also properly hit their target markets as majority of their target market are seen within

the premise.

Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

Bargaining Power of Customers

Gibbs' target market are usually those from the higher classes. in which are

already employed customers in which price is not of the issue. with their high quality

products, customers are willing to purchase more.

Threat of Substitution

This threat is less likely to happen as Gibbs' has already established itself in the

market as one of the top chicken wings in cebu.

Threat of New Entry

Gibbs' can never be affected by new entrants in the market. The company has

already reached far in terms of experience in this kind of market. if not, Gibbs' is one of

the chicken wing juggernauts in the current market. Engaging in a price war with the

company can eventually eliminate new entrants.

Organization’s Internal Strengths and Weaknesses

1. Marketing Department

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

Brand exposure is always present There are only a limited amount of

choices provided in the menu

Booming population of millennial Lack of focus on adjusting to offer

population, its target market other food choices that suits the target

market’s needs

12
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

Attractive branding, ambience and High prices of menu items and

concept beverages

Large market share Few branch in Streetscape and IT Park

Excellent customer service and high Not enough avenues for the company to

quality products freely advertise in Cebu

Gibbs’ Hot Wings has a competitive advantage on brand exposure, where

customers are able to recall or recognize the brand. It has a huge customer population

mainly consisting of the millennials, due to the booming population of “trendy”

millennials aged 20-34 years old, this has been their target throughout the years. With

the excellent customer service and high quality products, specifically their chicken wings,

Gibbs’ Hot Wings is able to attract a large number of customers, allowing it to capture

more customers, resulting to a large market share.

While Gibbs’ Hot Wings has these strengths, the researchers have also identified

the company’s weaknesses on the marketing aspect. The company has a limited amount

of choices provided in the menu. The main reason for this is because their main product

and signature dishes are the chicken wings, and the company chooses to give more

importance to their signature dishes. Although there is an upward trend of chicken wings

in the industry, millennial customers tend to look for something new, and usually vary in

food choices. Thus, the lack of focus on other food choices is considered a weakness for

Gibbs’ Hot Wings. Another weakness identified is the continuous increase in the prices

of menu items and beverages, which is affected mostly by the increase in the prices of the

raw ingredients and materials used. In addition to these, the company also has only two

13
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

branches: one in Streetscape and another one in I.T. Park Cebu, both of which are located

in Cebu City. Having a limited number of branches can affect the company’s brand

exposure in other areas; however, this can also be considered an opportunity for Gibbs’

Hot Wings to expand further in these areas in the future.

2. Operations Department

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

Steady production flow Product leftovers of the day’s

inventory

Value for high quality Limited seating

Abundant supply of ingredients Lack of innovation for supply chain

and materials

More than enough finished goods Distribution channel focuses only

served to customers on B2C

The strengths of the Operations Department of Gibbs Hot Wings are composed of

the following: first, they have a steady production flow. The process from start to finish

is smoothly done in each of the company’s branches. The companay also boasts of their

value for high quality. Gibbs’ Hot Wings places great importance on quality in almost

everything - from the way they extend service, to the ambiance, to the presentation of

their menu items, to the taste of their chicken wings and their beverages. This value for

14
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

high quality has helped made their operations more efficient and more effective. Gibbs’

Hot Wings also sees to it that they never run out of dishes for the customers. They make

sure that their supply of menu items is abundate and enough to cater to the customers.

With this, the company also has an abundant supply of ingredients and materials for their

finished goods. They conduct inventory checks every day, to make sure that supply

never runs out easily.

The weaknesses of the Operations Department of Gibbs Hot Wings are composed

of the following: first, it is that they have limited number seats, especially in their

Streetscape branch, which is very small. Another weakness they have in the operations

aspect is that they always have product leftovers of the day’s inventory. Gibbs’ Hot

Wings also lacks innovation for the supply chain, as they only source from and depend on

the same suppliers for their menu items.

3. Human Resource Department

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

Good relationship with employees Not very structured organization

15
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

Strong leadership of management Too labor intensive

Well-trained employees High employees’ wages

the employees of Gibbs’ Hot Wings have a good relationship with the company. Gibbs’

Hot Wings believes in the principle of putting people first, and in bringing people

together; thus, the company treats their employees like family. They compensate their

employees at the minimum wage, while at the same time providing them benefits for

health, insurance, and even free meals. In addition to this, Gibbs’ Hot Wings also has a

strong management system. With the assistance of Mr. Frank Oliva, the owner, Gibbs’

Hot Wings is able to properly manage the businesses. The owner makes sure that each of

their two branches is properly managed - that the company policies are being adhered to.

Gibbs’ Hot Wings also employs a group of people who are well trained to prepare

chicken wings, wait, and serve the customers.

The weaknesses of the HR Department are composed of the following. First, it is

that their organization is not very well structured. They do not have separate supervisors

and managers for each of their branches, as this would be too costly already on their part.

Another weakness is that the company is labor intensive. The chicken wings are

16
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

prepared the traditional, home-cooked way; thus, the company does not rely on highly

advanced kitchen equipment, which is quite labor - intensive. Another weakness is they

have high employee wages. Although this is considered as an advantage on the part of

the employees, the company has to shoulder so many costs and expenses already.

4. Finance Department

STRENGTHS WEAKNESSES

Constant increase in yearly Stagnant profit margin

income

Positive cash flow Increasing prices of menu items

Sufficient budget for kitchen

supplies and equipment

In their Finance Department, Gibbs’ Hot Wings’ strengths are composed of the

following: first, that they have constant increase in yearly income. This has also resulted

in a higher profit margin. With this, the company is able to have a positive cash flow,

17
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

On the other hand, their weaknesses are the following: that the department has

stagnant profit margin, and the increasing prices of menu items. Some factors for these

may include the high pressure from competitors, and the pressure in the industry.

A SWOT Confrontation Matrix is a tool used to analyse the different combinations

of strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and Threats. This matrix allows companies to

identify the most important strategic issues the company is facing. There are 4 possible

relationships used in this matrix: Strengths and Opportunities (SO), Strengths and Threats

(ST), Weaknesses and Opportunities (WO) and Weaknesses and Threats (WT). All of the

company’s relationships include 3 strategies each.

SO talks about the different strategies that allow the company to do what is good

when that specific opportunity arrives. The first is about maintaining their current market

share and meet the growing demand of chicken wings by creating new and delicious

flavours every month. The second is to attract Millennials by advertising high quality

products on social media. The third is about maintaining the brand exposure by opening

new branches where there is a large market.

ST is options where the company’s strengths can be improved and threats can be

turned into opportunities. The first ST is lowering prices and having combo meals as their

competitive advantage while maintaining their large market share. The second is

redesigning the presentation of the food as a mean of differentiating high quality products

from other restaurants in the same industry. The third is developing and increasing

customer relationship and brand loyalty via programs.

WO is all about when a company is trying to seize an opportunity despite having

the presence of a weakness. The first is adding more flavours to the chicken wings to

satisfy the rising demand and adding more products to expand the menu. The second is

establishing Gibb’s as a symbol for Millennials to hang out by setting up events. The

29
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

third is adding more branches into key Cities aside from just Cebu City.

WT are options that combine a company’s weaknesses with external threats. The

first is to add more healthy choices which differentiate Gibb’s from other restaurants. The

second would be to negotiate with local supplier about lower costs to lower the prices in

the menu. The third is to deliberate accepting order via delivery and online to gain a

competitive edge against their competitors.

Significant / robust strategic options by TOWS analysis

Based on the TOWS Analysis, there are a number of strategies that Gibbs’ Hot

Wings can implement to their business. However, some of the strategies stand out from

the rest and. These are the top 5 strategies that the business can use to help become more

successful in the future:

 Maintaining the business’s current market share and meet the

growing demand of chicken wings by creating new and delicious flavours every

month. By doing this, current customers can enjoy the taste that they love and

enjoy new tastes. Due to the rise of the industry, more people not only look

forward to eating the products they love but also new flavours which will make

them come back for more.

 Attracting Millennials by advertising high quality products on

social media. Social Media is one thing most people go to everyday, especially the

Millennials. So by advertising the products in a way that customers see as high

quality, it will peak the customer’s interest making them pay a visit.

 Maintaining the brand exposure by opening new branches where

30
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

there is a large market. Gibbs’ should maintain their current strategies for

publicizing the brand but at the same time furthering the exposure of the brand.

This can be done by opening new branches where there are a lot of potential

customers.

 Lowering prices and having combo meals as their competitive

advantage while maintaining their large market share. With the current

competition in the industry, inflation seems like a good idea but lowering them

would be a better idea. By having lower prices, customers would rather eat in

Gibbs’ compared to other, keeping in mind the lowered price must still lead to

profit and not loss.

 Adding more flavours to the chicken wings to satisfy the rising

demand and adding more products to expand the menu. Since the industry is

rising, it also makes sense that the demand rises too. To keep up with this rise,

Gibbs’ should continue to add more flavours into their chicken wings and expand

their menu. This will allow customers to see what new innovations the company

has come up with.

Organization’s objectives per functional area, based on the robust strategic options

selected

MARKETING OBJECTIVES

1. To be more known as the home of the best chicken wings in Cebu by expanding

the branch to other places for awareness and brand exposure. This specific goal

can be measured through the increase in sales of the company by meeting the

rising demand of the product. This can be achieved through research and

31
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

studying on how to penetrate deeper in to the market. The food industry can be

very challenging but the goal has been carefully chosen and studied by the

company. This can be achieved within the next 3 to 4 years of the operations.

OPERATIONS OBJECTIVES

1. To improve product quality by 25% within 6 months. This can be measured by

checking the amount of sales generated by the business. This can be done by

continuously refining the procedures and not altering the process even when faced

with challenges such as time consuming or a large number of customers to serve

resulting in a strengthened brand and increase of sales.

2. To generate multiple new products for the menu by 3 months, which also include

more challenges the business can offer to their customers. This will result in more

choices for the customers to choose from; the challenges will attract customers

who are willing to take the new challenge in hopes to conquer it. An increase of

sales and out of stock transpiring will keep track if the goal is met.

3. To research all potential suppliers and identify which supplier offers the best

ingredients to be used for the business. This will result in having the freshest

ingredients and helps in the overall quality since using the best ingredients

available helps improve the taste. This can be calculated from the overall taste

and how the customers find the taste.

HR OBJECTIVES

1. To have a more functional organizational structure, by assigning a manager or a

32
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

supervisor, and to divide the staff into different departments - waiting staff, cooks and

bartenders, etc.

2. To set down a set of company rules and policies that are to be followed by every

employee and staff member as well as management - to ensure camaraderie and

professionalism among employers and employees

4. 3. To hire people who are equipped with good communication skills,

interaction skills, and who can work well under pressure

5. 4. To increase the number of employees by 75% to match the growing

number of consumers.

6. These objectives can be achievable within 3-4 years.

FINANCIAL OBJECTIVES

7. 1. To continue to increase revenue every year. This can be measured by

checking the annually income of Gibbs Hot Wings from to the point of the

business started to the existing year. Keeping food costs at less than 40% of all

revenue could then focus on low food waste. Budgeting requires research

estimate accurate revenue levels based on demand forecasting. Using the annual

budget projections, the account staff can help set targets for profit goals.

Relevant business strategies that surfaced using the following tools/matrices

The researchers use the following tools and matrices to come up with business

strategies for Gibbs’ Hot Wings:

I-E Matrix

I-E MATRIX FOR GIBBS’ HOT WINGS

33
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

This part shows and formulates strategies and allocates resources among divisions.

This is mostly prepared for competitors. Through this, the company can analyze and

compare to the direct and indirect competitors. This matrix can serve as a score sheet and

through it, the company can see where they are standing and where their competitors are

standing. This matrix is somewhat similar to the BCG matrix but it requires more

information. The I-E Matrix helps in formulating alternative strategies.

The company can use this to keep track or score to see where it is standing, if it is

ahead or behind their competitors. The result can help see which side is running low and

the company can develop alternative strategies on how to improve that certain situation.

The I-E matrix can also be considered as a forecast matrix. The I-E Matrix is based on

the two key dimensions: the IFE total weighted scores, which is plotted on the x-axis, and

the EFE total weighted scores on the y-axis.

The results show that the IFE total weighted score of Gibbs’ Hot Wings is 2.90,

which is interpreted as an average internal position; meanwhile, the EFE total weighted

score of Gibbs’ Hot Wings is 3.28, which is interpreted as high.

34
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

Based on the total weighted IFE and EFE scores of Gibbs’ Hot Wings, it can be

concluded that Gibbs’ Hot Wings falls under cell II of the I-E Matrix. This implies that

Gibbs’ Hot Wings needs to focus on implementing grow and build strategies. Gibbs’ Hot

Wings should implement grow and build strategies, which includes the use of intensive

(market penetration, market development, and product development), or integrative

(backward, forward, horizontal integration).

For market penetration, Gibbs’ Hot Wings should focus more on building their

current market composed of millennials aged 20 to 34 years old, who usually dine with

family and friends. This can be done through active promotion and advertising of their

products and other offers on social media. Gibbs’ Hot Wings should also continue to

create more music events such as Acoustic Nights, and events such as the Spicy Wing

Challenge to entice their market.

For market development, Gibbs’ Hot Wings should consider expansion in other

key cities in Cebu, such as Mandaue City, Lapu-lapu City, and even in the developing

South Road Properties of Talisay City. The company may also want to consider putting

up branches inside malls such as Ayala Center Cebu, SM City Cebu, and Robinsons

Galleria Cebu; and, in the long run, more branches across other key areas in the

Philippines, such as in Bohol, Bacolod, Iloilo, Manila, Davao, Cagayan de Oro, and

Zamboanga.

For product development, Gibbs’ Hot Wings should continue to create more

distinct flavors, such as different levels of spiciness and maybe more sweet flavors of

their chicken wings to attract customers. Aside from chicken wings, the company can

also add more menu items such as grilled pork belly, pork barbecue, and baby back ribs,

35
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

or even have more combo meals to attract price-conscious customers. They can also

change the plating style for their dishes, or add more features to the ambiance of each of

their branches to draw more attention from potential customers.

Forward integration involves the expansion of the company’s business activities,

by controlling their direct distribution of products. This means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings

can consider merging with their different supply chain members, such as distributors and

retailers, to move forward in the supply chain. However, this strategy can only be

implemented once the company has reached a level where they have an adequate supply

of human resources, and the financial advantage to meet expenses, and when their

existing distributors and retailers have a higher profit margin.

Backward integration, on the other hand, involves the ownership of or the merging

with their suppliers in the industry. This means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings can acquire, for

example, the company that supplies them their chicken wings. This strategy can result in

more cost savings, an improvement in the efficiency of the company’s operations, and a

guaranteed supply. Horizontal integration involves the creation of economies of scale,

which allows the company to increase their power over distributors and suppliers, and

encourages product differentiation, which helps the company gain competitive advantage.

In the future, Gibbs’ Hot Wings may want to merge with other top chicken wing

restaurants in other countries, such as Buffalo Wild Wings in the U.S.A., in case they

have plans for global expansion.

36
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

SPACE Matrix

The Strategic Position and Action Evaluation (SPACE) Matrix is an important

Stage 2 matching tool, which is composed of four quadrants. Each quadrant indicates

whether a company must make use of either aggressive, conservative, defensive, or

competitive strategies to move forward in the market. Each axis of the SPACE matrix

stands for two internal dimensions: the x-axis is composed of the competitive position

(CP) and the industry position (IP) of the company; while the y-axis is composed of the

financial position (FP) and stability position (SP) of the company. Overall, these four

factors help determine where a company really stands.

The SPACE Matrix above shows that Gibbs’ Hot Wings has an overall rating of

37
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

2.8 on the x-axis, with an overall rating of 0.8 on the y-axis. This means that Gibbs’ Hot

Wings is in an excellent position to use their internal strengths to overcome their

weaknesses and avoid potential threats. The company should place more emphasis on

aggressive strategies. These aggressive strategies involve market penetration, market

development, product development, backward and forward integration, and

diversification.

Market penetration means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings should continue to expand their

current market, who are composed of millennials aged 20 to 34 years old, who usually

dine with family and friends. This can be done through active promotion and advertising

of their products and other offers on social media. Gibbs’ Hot Wings should also

continue to create more music events such as Acoustic Nights, and events such as the

Spicy Wing Challenge to entice their market.

To further reach and develop more markets, Gibbs’ Hot Wings should consider

expansion in other key cities in Cebu, such as Mandaue City, Lapu-lapu City, and even in

the developing South Road Properties of Talisay City. The company may also want to

consider putting up branches inside malls such as Ayala Center Cebu, SM City Cebu, and

Robinsons Galleria Cebu; and, in the long run, more branches across other key areas in

the Philippines, such as in Bohol, Bacolod, Iloilo, Manila, Davao, Cagayan de Oro, and

Zamboanga.

In addition to this, Gibbs’ Hot Wings should continue to create more distinct

flavors, such as different levels of spiciness and maybe more sweet flavors of their

chicken wings to attract customers. Aside from chicken wings, the company can also add

more menu items such as grilled pork belly, pork barbecue, and baby back ribs, or even

38
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

have more combo meals to attract price-conscious customers. They can also change the

plating style for their dishes, or add more features to the ambiance of each of their

branches to draw more attention from potential customers.

Forward integration involves the expansion of the company’s business activities,

by controlling their direct distribution of products. This means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings

can consider merging with their different supply chain members, such as distributors and

retailers, to move forward in the supply chain. However, this strategy can only be

implemented once the company has reached a level where they have an adequate supply

of human resources, and the financial advantage to meet expenses, and when their

existing distributors and retailers have a higher profit margin.

Backward integration, on the other hand, involves the ownership of or the merging

with their suppliers in the industry. This means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings can acquire, for

example, the company that supplies them their chicken wings. This strategy can result in

more cost savings, an improvement in the efficiency of the company’s operations, and a

guaranteed supply.

Diversification is further classified in two: related or unrelated. Related

diversification means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings should consider expanding their existing

line of products or markets. For example, Gibbs’ Hot Wings can further the consumption

of their products by providing combo meals, or more complementary dishes such as

healthier appetizers like mashed potatoes. This also involves adding newer flavors, such

as more levels of spiciness for their chicken wings, or other menu items such as pesto

flavored pasta. Unrelated diversification, on the other hand, involves the expansion of

more products not related to their line of business. For example, in the future, Gibbs’ Hot

39
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

Wings might want to consider opening a fast food restaurant. They can enter into

partnerships with local fast food conglomerates such as Jollibee and Mang Inasal to

further their business. As of today, related diversification is recommended for Gibbs’

Hot Wings, since this is less risky compared to the latter. It does not require big

investments, and this is also more secure on the part of Gibbs’ Hot Wings since the

strategy is directly related to their line of business.

BCG Matrix

The Boston Consulting Group (BCG) Matrix is designed to specifically enhance a

company’s efforts in order to come up with effective strategies. It is a graphical

representation of the company’s products in terms of market share position and growth

rate. This helps the company evaluate which products are strong in the industry, and

which products need more development. The BCG Matrix is composed of four quadrants,

40
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

namely: question marks, stars, dogs, and cash cows.

The products in Quadrant I, or those classified as question marks, are composed

of Gibbs’ Hot Wings spicy intense wings, and the upcoming chicken wing flavors. Those

under this quadrant have a low relative market share position, but still are able to

compete in a high-growth industry. The reason for the low relative market share position

of these is because only a few people usually order the intense spicy wings. It is also

uncertain as to whether the new flavored wings would be a hit in the industry. Thus,

Gibbs’ Hot Wings must strengthen their intense spicy wings and new flavors through

active promotion on social media, in order to attract and expand their current market.

Gibbs’ Hot Wings can also add more items to their menu and continue to develop the

presentation and taste of their chicken wings.

The products in Quadrant II are labeled as star products. In this case, Gibbs’ Hot

Wings has the Angel wings as the star products. The Angel wings have achieved a high

market share and a high industry growth rate. Thus, Gibbs’ Hot Wings can make use of

the following strategies: foward, backward, and horizontal integration; market

penetration; market development, and product development to further their position.

Quadrant III is composed of cash cow products. These are the products that have

a high relative market share position but compete in a low growth industry. Gibbs’ Hot

Wings’ cash cows are composed of the Original spicy wings, and alcoholic beverages

such as beer, vodka, and tequila. These products are considered cash cows since they are

highly consumed, and generate cash exceeding their needs. It is important to maintain

the strong position of these cash cows. Some good strategies for these include product

development or diversification. This involves adding a twist to these products, such as

41
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

enhanced flavors.

Finally, Quadrant IV products are considered as “dogs” in the firm’s portfolio. In

this case, Gibbs’ Hot Wings’ appetizers such as french fries, and pasta such as carbonara

and spaghetti and meatballs are the dog products. These are products that have a low

market share, and are competing in a slow market growth industry. It has been observed

by the researchers that not many customers consume appetizers, as chicken wings can be

consumed alone. Thus, to minimize risks, Gibbs’ Hot Wings can put them together with

the chicken wings as combo meals. This strengthens the consumption of both the

chicken wings and the appetizers.

Grand Strategy

The Grand Strategy Matrix has also become a powerful tool for businesses in

42
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

creating alternative strategies. The Grand Strategy Matrix is evaluated based on two

dimensions: market growth and competitive position. The results from the Grand Matrix

show Gibbs’ Hot Wings on the first quadrant (upper-right corner).

This means that Gibbs’ Hot Wings has achieved a rapid market growth, with an

annual sales exceeding 5 percent, and is strong in terms of competitive position. Gibbs’

Hot Wings is at an excellent strategic position; thus, the company should focus more on

expanding their current markets (market penetration and market development), and

continue to concentrate on innovating their products (product development). Moreover,

once Gibbs’ Hot Wings has reached a level where the resources are excessive, then

backward, forward, or horizontal integration may be used. With the limited product line

of Gibbs’ Hot Wings, related diversification may also be utlitized to reduce this risk.

Gibbs’ Hot Wings can also take advantage of expansion opportunities, and may take risks

aggressively only when necessary.

Porter’s Generic

For the Porter’s Generic Matrix, there are 3 different generic strategies for

achieving above average performance in an industry – Differentiation Strategy, Overall

Cost Leadership Strategy and Focus Strategy. Among the 3 strategies, Gibbs’ Hot Wings

chooses the Differentiation strategy where a firm seeks to be unique that is widely valued

by customers.

There are many things that differentiate Gibbs’ from other restaurants that also

sell chicken wings. But among all of these differences, the one thing that sets them apart

is their chicken wings that offer different levels of spiciness. The spiciness level ranges

from level 1 – 5, with 1 being the mildest and 5 being the spiciest, and the customers can

43
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

choose their desired level. Other restaurants many have unlimited wings and drinks but

letting the customers choose their preferred spiciness level is something that other

chicken wings restaurants don’t have.

This meets that the customers’ needs since there are some customers who are not

fond of spicy foods and there are other customers who want their food spicier than

normal. By allowing them to choose their desired level, they can enjoy the taste as they

eat. As the spiciness level increases, so does the price but it is worth it for the customers

who love spicy food.

MARKET DEVELOPMENT

This is where the business seeks to sell its existing products into new markets.

There are 2 strategies Gibb’s can do to ensure Market Development. The first would be

44
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

the expansion to other branches in Cebu. By doing so, the brand will be introduced to

new markets and will gather new customers. The second is to expand the Target Market.

The current target market for Gibb’s are Millennials ages 20 – 34 years old who usually

go in groups. The company should consider expanding it to high school students to adults

ranging from 16 – 40 years old and not focus just on Millennials.

DIVERSIFICATION

This is where the business markets new products in new markets. The only thing

Gibb’s needs to watch out for is the High Risk, especially for the new products.

Releasing new products to a new market always has high risks to it because it is unsure if

the product will actually survive in the market in the short and long run.

MARKET PENETRATION

This is where the business focuses on selling existing products into the existing

markets. For market penetration, Gibb’s implements 2 strategies. The first one would be

to launch promotions every now and then. This will peak consumer’s interest and can

gather potential customers. The second would be to continue innovating the products,

especially their specialty which is their spiciness level. Loyal customers would already

know about their challenge and by furthering the challenge and adding new flavours then,

more potential customer will visit.

PRODUCT DEVELOPMENT

This is where the business aims to introduce new products into existing markets.

Product Development can happen by improving customer service by shortening time and

improving quality. This will result in much more delicious products and faster service

time making customer satisfied with the experience Gibb’s offers and will be more than

45
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

willing to come back. Another strategy would be to develop related products or services

such as fries to go with the chicken wings rather than the rice. This will give customers

more choices to choose from allowing them to choose one to their desired liking.

The Quantitative Strategic Planning Matrix, or QSPM, helps the company examine

sets of strategies and evaluate these strategies on how effective it is. This matrix draws

attention to certain important things that affect strategy decision. It is recommended that

big or small businesses use this matrix to analyze and evaluate which strategy is good

enough or which to apply first. Based on the table above, Gibb’s current location is a

decent environment for eating however there are many indirect competitors in the area.

These competitors also offer promos that are unlimited however Gibb’s morale is superb.

D. Functional Decisions (VMO KRA PI SPATRES per functional area)

MARKETING

 Competitive Advantage. This is the one unique aspect that the

47
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

company has that makes consumers want to go to your brand. Gibb’s has this in

their menu on their spicy challenge allowing customers to choose how spicy they

want their wings to be.

OPERATIONS

 Growth Strategy. This is talking about introducing new products or

adding new feature to existing products. Possible new products of Gibb’s can be

sandwiches and innovative products can be combo meals or new flavours of wings.

This is set in the Operations objectives that states to create new and innovative

items in the menu.

 Market Penetration. This is the when a product is recognized and

brought by a particular market. Gibb’s can expand their market by opening new

branches. This is generated from the SWOT where it was one of the strategic

options to open a new branch.

HR

 Mandatory Training. Companies who hire new employees must go

through training to handle their given task and work efficiently. This is generated

from the HR Objectives to set down a set of rules and policies. The training

program and seminars will ensure professionalism among staff.

 Customer Experience. This is one of the most vital things in a

company, especially under a service industry like a restaurant. Gibb’s must be able

to keep their customer satisfied in their visit. The Vision-Mission alone brings this

strategy since they want to connect people and create memories and friendships

with their business.

48
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

FINANCE

 Cutting Costs. Cutting costs can help the business increase their

sales. To cut costs, the company must look for cheaper suppliers but at the same

time keeping the quality of the product. This is generated from the Finance

objective that states that food cost should be at least 40% of all revenue.

E. Proposed procedures for strategy review and evaluation

In order for the business to see what they should improve or work on, they can

have the employees’ rate on how the business is going and how the customers react to

certain things. The business can also have the customers rate or evaluate the service or

products offered. The company can put up evaluation in their website or print several

copies. That way, the company can identify which side is good, needs improvement and

what strategy is best used or implemented in order for the business to run better and for

the customers to be fully satisfied at all times. After analyzing a strategy, it is best to

implement it afterwards and observe if there are good changes or if a new strategy is

needed. A study of quick restaurant services should also take into consideration in order

to analyze strategy for good and fast services during peak hours.

Chapter 3

CONCLUSIONS AND RECOMMENDATIONS

Conclusions

Gibbs’ Hot Wings has indeed achieved a high level of strategic position in the

industry. They are indeed one of the market leaders in the food service industry,

particularly the chicken retailer category. However, despite this, they still have some

49
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

areas to improve on.

Recommendations

Based on the study, the researchers recommend the following for Gibbs’ Hot

Wings:

Market penetration. Gibbs’ Hot Wings should continue to attract their current

market, composed of millennials aged 20-34 years old, who dine with family and friends.

One way of doing this is by increased promotional efforts, especially through social

media sites such as Facebook and Instagram. Gibbs’ should maintain an active presence

online, and continue to promote their products on these platforms. Moreover, Gibbs’

should have a more structured marketing department tasked to do these. Gibbs’ Hot

Wings should also focus more on providing discounts, especially during special

occasions and holidays. They can also have a membership card to increase further the

loyalty of their customers.

Market development. Gibbs’ Hot Wings should consider expansion as part of

their business plans. Some potential locations for expansion include other malls in Cebu,

such as Ayala Center Cebu, SM City Cebu, Robinsons Galleria Cebu, Parkmall, J Centre,

and SM Seaside Cebu. They should also consider expanding to different key cities

besides Cebu City, such as Mandaue City, Lapu-lapu City, and Talisay City. Moreover,

they can also expand to other key regions in the Philippines, especially Bohol, Bacolod

and Iloilo in Visayas, Davao City in Mindanao, and the National Capital Region.

Branching out further increases the market share of the company.

Product development. Gibbs’ Hot Wings should continue to experiment and

innovate different, distinct flavors for their chicken wings, such as higher levels of

50
Ref: Strategic Management 13e by Fred David

spiciness, or more sweet flavors. Moreover, they should expand their menu items by

adding entrees such as grilled baby back ribs, pork belly, pork barbecue, and so on.

Gibbs’ can also consider adding healthier alternatives as part of their menu in the future,

such as salads, vegan burgers, and fruit shakes. Having varied products attracts diverse

markets, allowing more room for market growth.

As a leader, she is very capable of handling the group and keeping others in check. She

lot of ideas and very responsible. As a member, she always does her best to ensure that
the group has an efficient output.

Name of the member: ___QUAN FUN, ANN MARIE______


Comments:
As a member, she has been helpful in giving ideas and during brainstorming. She has
given great content and helps out when asking for information. She shows promise but
can be a little more active when the group is being asked a question about the company.

Name of the member: ___POGOY, JULITO_____________


Comments:
As a member, he shows promise. He does his tasks without fail and his content is very
useful. He passes on time and sometimes earlier and when called to present on stage,
does his part. He has also given the group a number of ideas which can help the company
and the strategies they can use in the future.

Name of the member: ___GAVIOLA, TAN____________


Comments:
As a member, he has given more than a number of ideas especially during questions
asked from the teacher. His fast thinking has helped the group come up with more
strategies and possible products for the company. Although, he passes just on time, his
content is very good and is devoted to the group.

Thank You!!!
