In this thesis, I develop a business plan for a frozen food company (Chiwate) that will operate in Morocco. Until very recently, the frozen food product-line in Morocco was very restricted. However, recent demographic and legal changes are very likely to result in huge changes in the industry in the upcoming years. Chiwate's objective is to benefit from this change and to establish a strong brand in the sector, and in particular in the niche of traditional Moroccan frozen food. The business plan is structured in five main sections. In the first part, I detail the market opportunity for the company through an analysis of the recent changes and the market growth, the needs of the target customers, as well as the competitors' positioning. I then focus on the operational issues, which are product development and manufacturing. I also develop the marketing and sales strategy of Chiwate, including the sales tactics, the choice of the distribution channels the hiring plan for the first few years. The last section of the business plan presents the financial projections along with the assumptions on which the forecasts are based. by Leila Miri.
