BMIS – Mar 2023 – L1 – Q5b – The external environment

Conducts a PEST analysis for Prekoka Beverages Ltd based on provided business challenges and opportunities.

Question

Prekoka Beverages Ltd (PBL) was established in 2022. The company manufactures alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The company uses a modern automation system and a lean manufacturing system to ensure operational efficiency. The company is very optimistic about the future due to the increase in disposable income of the people in the country.

The management of the company is, however, concerned about the government’s proposal to increase regulations in the manufacturing of alcoholic beverages because of a research publication that alcoholic beverage consumption is causing health problems for consumers in the country.

The company also faces a challenge predicting its future revenue because the section of the population with purchasing power is conscious of their consumption patterns and, as a result, are reluctant to purchase sugar-based beverages. Additionally, the recent population census in Ghana indicated that the female population (which normally doesn’t consume alcoholic beverages) surpasses the male population.

Even though the management of PBL is confronted with the above challenges, they are optimistic about the future because there is strong economic and political stability that facilitates business growth in the country. PBL also has an efficient research and development team that can develop new products to meet the changing needs and tastes of consumers.

Required:
Prepare a PEST framework for PBL based on the above information.
