  17. Place • The market for organic oats is a very small one in Saskatchewan. • Will be marketing to large companies, areas such as Michigan (Kellogg’s), and Chicago (Kraft)… • To move product into those areas or to grocery stories across Western Canada, trucking will be the main mode of transportation.

  19. Segmentation, Targeting, Positioning Targeting • Target the large retail consumers. • These groups would purchase the most amount of product. • Companies like Kraft, Robin Hood, and Kellogs

  21. Market Analysis The Market • Growing industry • Organic oat can be made into many different food products. • Possibilities are endless for this product if properly marketed. • Also there’s a strong demand for organic foods in Europe which opens up a large new market for organic oat’s.

  22. Market Analysis Competition • Two major companies involved with the mailing of organic oats in North America are Grain Millers and LaCrosse Milling. • Grain Millers recently purchased the Popowich mill located in Yorkton. Locally this will be the only competition here in Saskatchewan. • Other large milling companies include General Mills, ConAgra Grain Processing Group, and Can Oat Milling Product Inc.

  23. Financial Reports

  24. Sales Revenue • For a 2008 projection, Oat Processors could receive up to 6,160,000 dollars • Looking further down, there could be revenues reaching over 11,000,000

  25. Best and Worst Case Scenario • We factored in a price swing of 20% in either direction. The numbers show that a 20% decrease in price would produce a negative net income. This would translate into a loss of 1,632,059 with a IRR less than zero. Where as best case scenario would bring a net income of 120,000, and an IRR of 62%.

  26. Sensitivity Analysis • Looking at price as a critical variable, we discovered that the price would be able to move from a 34.1% IRR (Internal Rate Of Return) to a 0% IRR by fluctuating price 14%. This means that if the product price moved down from $650.00/tonne to a 0%IRR ($560.00/tonne) the price sensitivity is 14% of the predicted sales price.

  27. Cost of Oats • 3,001,250 Raw Product (245.00/tonne) • 4,697,679 Total Cost of Goods Sold (671.10/tonne)

  28. Sales Revenue • 4,550,000 Finished Goods Revenue • 420,000 By-Product Revenue =4,970,000 Total Sales
