SWOT Analysis of Mickeyspopsicles Company in Ghana

Strengths

Firstly, as a local ice – cream company in Ghana, Mickeyspopsicles has the greatest advantage of having a deep understanding of the local market. It can give full play to local flavors and produce ice – cream that better suits the local taste. Secondly, cost – effectiveness is also a major strength of Mickeyspopsicles. Ghana’s tropical climate makes tropical fruits such as mangoes and pineapples very common and inexpensive in the country. The ice – cream made from these fruits will have a lower cost than imported brands, making the price more attractive. In addition, being a small company, Mickeyspopsicles has the benefit of being flexible and innovative. For example, it can launch special – flavored ice – cream like spicy ice – cream, or adopt eye – catching packaging forms. These unique innovations may become a trend among young people who pursue novelty and attract them to check it out.  

Weaknesses 

As a local small – and – medium – sized enterprise, Mickeyspopsicles has limited funds and cannot invest a large amount of advertising expenses in brand marketing like international big brands. Therefore, its brand awareness is not as high as that of international big brands. In addition, as a small – and – medium – sized enterprise with limited funds, it will face certain difficulties in logistics transportation and full – industry – chain production. As a result, the transportation cost and production cost will be much higher than those of international big brands.  

Opportunities

Ghana has a tropical climate with high temperatures throughout the year. Cold drinks are a market necessity, and young people generally love ice – cream. So there is huge market potential and numerous opportunities. In the post – pandemic era, people are paying more and more attention to health. Mickeyspopsicles can launch low – sugar or coconut – milk – based plant ice – cream to meet market demands. Moreover, in the era of self – media, Mickeyspopsicles can attract the continuous attention of customers and leave a brand impression by making and posting interesting videos on platforms such as TikTok and Instagram.

Threats 

As a small – and – medium – sized enterprise, Mickeyspopsicles faces the competitive threat from international big companies like Unilever (Wall’s). Big companies usually have abundant funds, a complete industrial chain, wide brand awareness, and high recognition, so they have significant competitive advantages.

 In conclusion, if Mickey’s Popsicles Company wants to develop, it must give full play to its cost – advantage as a local enterprise and its flexibility and innovation advantages as a small – and – medium – sized enterprise. It should seize opportunities, attract people with local flavors and health concepts, and conduct low – cost promotion through social media. At the same time, it needs to make up for its weaknesses, avoid competition with big brands, and try to use local raw materials to reduce costs, so as to maximize the unique advantages of a local company in Ghana.
