3 Introducing the Company

3.1 Bio-Corn Ltd.

3.1.1 Mission statement

Bio-Corn Ltd. is a determinant member of the Hungarian corn-processing market. Its decade long experience and knowledge of the market makes it suitable for diversification. The company was founded by Hungarian private entities and the ownership and the management is committed to the cause of sustainable development.

It mainly provides primary materials for the food industry (beer, cornflake, breakfast cereal, baby soups production), but the pharmaceutical industry and the pet feed industry also uses the base materials provided by the company. The name of the Bio-Corn Ltd. Is well-known outside the borders of Hungary, especially in Poland, Romania, Russia and Belarus.

The necessary amount of corn is produced in the vicinity of the mill in an integrated producing environment, by producers with whom the company has long-term contracts. The corn is turned into primary materials at a high technological level according to the strict regulations of HACCP and ISO 9001/2000 standards.

3.1.2 Introduction

The company is running its corn processing plant since 1996, today it processes about 21.000 tons of corn and also has a storage capacity of 20.000 tons.

The Company is situated in the middle of the best corn producing region of Hungary, in a 50 km radius area 200.000 tons of corn is produced yearly. The average yield is 10 tons/ha which is well above the national average. The company has a good connection with the producers, and integrates 200 producers, who are capable of providing 90.000 tons of corn for the Bio-Corn Ltd.

Presently the company is capable of storing 20,000 tons of corn and is planning to build another storage facility, regardless of other projects, with 20,000 tons of capacity and the contracted producers also have storage capacities.

The company can sell or use the by products.

The company has a really good connection with the local authorities as the largest company in the area.

3.2 Project introduction

Bio-Corn Ltd. answering the challenges and changed economical environment is planning large scope investments. The planned investments, by taking part in the full corn palette of the market, would provide the most added value. Bio-Corn Ltd., based on its market and sector experience created a one-and-only compact corn-processing system with the largest possible added value content. So far in the world only separate or partly combined plants existed.

The individual characteristic of the Bio-Corn system is its complexity. It makes it possible for the operator to make decisions on different levels of the corn processing and so to be able to adapt, quickly and cheaply to the challenges of the economic environment.

In the 3.2.2 Technology section the used technology and the flow of the raw material (Corn-flow chart) is shown in details. The flow of the raw materials between the different parts of the plant can be easily followed visually.

Development:

For providing the secure corn raw material provision two new silo plants are needed. One will be the expansion of the present storage capacity and the other will be a new plant 50 km from the main plant. The main reason behind it is the closer connection to the producers and also to lock out other buyers.

Modernization of the mill technology for producing the best industrial ethanol input. The plant will be responsible for degermination and producing the raw material for the corn-oil section. A third product, corn grit, is done by this mill.

Building of an ethanol plant. According to EU directives the sustainable energy resources have a priority above the traditional resources. The EU commission directive would like to decrease the import dependency from 40% to 20% by 2020. The mid-term ethanol demands are controlled by this directive.

Building of a biogas plant. The ethanol and the oil-press by-products are not necessarily products to be sold since the these products can be used as alternative energy resources, thus stabilizing the company, by using it in the biogas plant for making electric and heat energy.

Building of an oil-press (crushing-mill). The main reason for this plant is the biggest added value. The extraction of the oil content of the germ can open new market possibilities for our company.

The building of an extruding plant. Just as with the oil press it serves the increasing of mobility and the more secure production. By further processing the corn grit the company would have newer market possibilities.

3.2.1 Human resources

Presently our company employs 28 persons, with the development the number of employees would be 72.

The necessary workforce can be attained by different methods. The higher level employees can be chosen with the help of recruitment agencies. The skilled and unskilled workforce can be acquired with the help of the unemployment office. The present employees will have a role in the new structure, their work experience is absolutely necessary.

The company is entitled for non-refundable subsidies for its retraining program, organized with the Észak-Alföld Regional Unemployment Office. The business plan does not calculate with these funds.

The next chart shows the new structural design emerging after the investment.

4 Market analysis

4.1 Environmental Conditions

By joining the Eu the Hungarian companies are faced with the same challenges and demands as in other member states. This procedure presupposes that for the same challenges similar solutions are provided. The progressions in the EU for decreasing its energy dependency crate a good environment for using the agricultural products in energetic solutions. Bio-Corn Ltd. would like to use these changes for its advantage.

The uniform EU legislation is good for such innovative companies as the Bio-Corn Ltd., which are willing to take part in spreading technology and information. For our company this means that by developing a workable system for the energetic usage of the agricultural products it can become an example for other companies. This would mean economical and prestige advantages for our company.

The Hungarian economy is a small and open economy, the international macro economical trends can be felt in a short time. 70% of the Hungarian export is directed to Germany, so the changes of the trends there has a big influence on the Hungarian economy. On a macro economical level the Hungarian economy can become more stable, more independent if the agricultural products of the country are further used in more branches of the industrial world and Hungarian companies are not just raw material contractors.

The unemployment rate in Hungary is higher than the desirable 3%, this could mean that possible skilled workforce can be found in the vicinity of the plant.

4.2 Economical trends

4.2.1 Raw material market

Presently 8 million tons of corn is produced on 1.2 million ha in Hungary. About 300,000 tons are used in mills, processed by 7 mills scattered around the country. Our Company is in the middle range companies with 100 tons daily capacity.

Ethanol was introduced on Chicago stock exchange in 2005. Since than it is tradable and the average contracts are 15 per day. In Europe Germany could be the first country where ethanol might be tradable at stock market. Hungary as a major producer of bioethanol in Europe could easily become the central place of ethanol trading. There is such an intention by the side of Budapest Exchange.

Stakeholders of ethanol business:• Automobile factories• Fuel companies, producers and traders• Authorities• Operators• Consumers• Government• Local government

Competitors

There are only two operating alcohol producing companies in Hungary, the Győri alcohol factory and the Hungrana Zrt. (a closed joint-stock company) The building of some bigger and 19-20 smaller ethanol plants (subsidized by the Ministry of Agriculture) is planned. (Details are shown in Table 2.) The raw material capacities, prescribed by the ministry, in order to get the subsidies is 30,000 tons, mainly corn. In 2007 5 plants can get AVOP subsidy.

Competitors

Presently there are seven corn processing plants scattered in Hungary. The biggest one , with 240 tons daily capacity is situated in Bábolna. Bio-Corn Ltd. is among the middle-sized companies with 100 tons daily capacity.

Hungary has countless wheat mills but there are only seven corn mills, which are positioned quite far from each other, that is why, even though they are rivals, still there is a partnership between these companies. In the last couple of years both the quantity and the quality (accordance with EU regulations) demands increased. Thanks to the privatisation of the

brewing companies, the brewing grit technologies appeared in Hungary, offering new markets for the mills. The privatisation of the brewing companies of the neighbouring countries bring new challenges for the Hungarian corn-mills.The following table contains the most important known information on the milling companies.

Product structure

It can be seen from the above table that presently 880 tons of corn are processed daily in Hungary. The production can be divided as follows: 48% corn grit, 10% corn flour and 42% other milling products, this means the production of 408 tons of grit, 85 tons of flour and 357 tons of different quality forage flour. This, calculating 220 working days a year, means the production of 89760 tons of grit, 18700 tons of flour and 78540 tons of forage flour.The above detailed mill capacity is fully used. The market distribution of the grit is the following:

Table 4. Product structureExport 40-50 thousand tonsBrewing companies 27-30 thousand tonsExtruded corn crisps (“Kuki”) 5-7 thousand tonsCornflakes 3-4 thousand tonsTotal 90 thousand tons

Brewing grit

There is about 30,000 tons of brewing grits sold in Hungary. The market share of Bio-Corn Ltd. Is about 20% and because of its so-far favourable image it can be increased. It is not the best paying part of the market, but it is stable and means a larger quantity in comparison with the other parts of the market.

Cornflake

The share of cornflakes on the food palette is dynamically increasing. We can find extruded corn products in every store (cornflakes, chips, snacks). The corn grit, corn flour can be used in gluten-free and diabetic diets. The various and delicious breads and cookies made of corn grit or corn flour can be part of a diversified diet and help to comply with dietary regulations.

Page 16: Bio-Corn Ltd. Business - UniBG...Bio-Corn Ltd. answering the challenges and changed economical environment is planning large scope investments. The planned investments, by taking part

© Bio-Corn Ltd. Project plan V2_2

The extruded cornflake has a higher added value compared to brewing grit. In Hungary there are 80-100 smaller family businesses on the extruding market, usually situated in a garage sized building. Just in the neighbourhood of Debrecen and Újfehértó there are 25 small plants, and the corn grit is supplied to them by Bio-Corn Ltd. They cannot be seen as a rivalry for the planned extruding facility of our company since they only produce one kind of an extruded snack, the so-called “kuki”.

There are only two high capacity plants in Hungary owned by Chio and Cerbona. Formerly Pepsico Lays was also producing here in Hungary but they moved their plant to Poland. Because of the geographical closeness the European Food company, situated in Oradea, Romania, deserves some attention, which is dynamically increases its market share in the Romanian market.

4.2.4 Corn-oil

Corn is made of the germ of the corn. In these days about two million tons of corn-oil is produced around the world (in quantity the 10th largest important grease). In Hungary a small amount (6,000 tons of corn-oil made out of 20,000 tons of germ) is produced, but in the future this market probably will grow.

The average oil content of the corn is about 3.5-7%, but some variety contain more oil. About ¾ of the oil content can be found in the germ, its oil content is about 22-25%.

It is a very good quality oil. Very similar to sunflower seed-oil, but the linoleic acid content is smaller and it also contains about 1% linolenic acid. Its tokoferol content is high 800-1200 mg/kg. It can be used as cooking oil, for salad dressings and for producing margarine and food grease.

We consider the cold-pressed edible oil producing as a market possibility. A risk decreasing and stabilizing factor can be the use of the oil for energetic purposes since its energy content is about 10 Mwatt/ton.

4.2.5 Germcake

A germ byproduct of germ oil production. Because of its high energy content it is a popular forage material. According to the markets demands we will either sell it or use it for biogas production.

4.2.6 DGS

Byproduct of ethanol production. It can be either sold or used for biogas production (depending on the market demands). As a forage it is distributed in a dried form as DDGS (Distiller’s dried grains with solubles). It is a well accepted and popular forage material in the USA.

In the case of brewing grits the quality highly depends on the applied technology. The buyers are price sensitive but they know the difference between good and bad grit, so they are ready to spend more in order to secure the right quality. Bio-Corn Ltd. sells the most expensive brewing grit, because of the customer behaviour it can be said that our company produces the best quality in the market.

The cornflake market is suitable for price differentiation and product diversification. It is characterized by a heterogeneous product structure. There are many different products are present on the market. The customer structure is also very diversified there are price sensitive, quality sensitive, elderly and young, wage earners and dependants among them. A diversified target audience also means a diversified marketing strategy in order to achieve the best results.

The corn germ oil market is only in its initial phase and has serious potential. The healthy lifestyle is a growing trend in our country, and the corn-oil fits well into that segment of the market.

4.3.1 Distributing channels

Bio-Corn Ltd. reaches its customers through three channels.1.Directly2.Classic: through retail and wholesale3.Through agents

The use of the right channel is determined by the market.

4.3.2 Promotion

The corn oil and cornflake as an FMCG market needs the most costly promotion. The most diversified means are needed in order to achieve the desired results. Pull strategy is needed to directly attract the customers. The recent food scandals in Hungary wavered the customers trust in the food industry. Because of that it is more to the purpose to address the customer than the retailer since the shopping does not fully trust them either.

•ATL marketing: Press advertising, Posters, radio•BTL marketing: flyers•Exhibitions•Sales promotion, it is important to be present at the moment of decision, so the different actions, promotional games and mall displays are very important•Personal sales for the wholesale business.

Electricity: The price is guaranteed by the state so tere is only need for PR.

The ethanol sales, as the main product of the company, are only done in personal selling.

Brewing grits also require personal selling.
