Consumer CultureReligious practices
It is a democratic republic, where they elect a president and members of congress every five years. 90% of the country is Roman Catholics and 80% of the country speaks Spanish, then 16% speaking Quechua as the other dominating language.Attitudes toward the U.S. & Shopping behaviors if different from the U.S.
The typical Peruvian consumer has considerably evolved over the last decade. The consumer is more interested in the components of a product before they purchase. If the product does not meet their expectations, they are more inclined to complain today, even if this attitude is still a very marginal phenomenon. They also view American products to be of superior making and are willing to spend top dollar on those items. They are still known to do the bulk of their leather and shoe buying from less expensive surrounding countries.

Product # 1 - Cyanide Leaching Fields
Some large companies but large population of illegitimate small minersCurrently use a mercury amalgam mix in order to separate Gold from oresMercury Burned in gold shops and produces high quantities of mercury vapor exposing many to health risksSolution is to bring alternative process to extracting Gold from oresCyanide Leaching fields require a lot of capital up front and large plots of land that smaller miners don’t have capability to build
For mining Gold, not killing

CompetitionLarge corporations use this technique all over the world including U.S.Opportunity: Normally they use it for their own mining purposes. Threat: it would be easy for a large company to open operations for small miners.

MarketPeruvian population had shown an increasing interest in the use of cell phones.
The market for it has been growing over time with an amazing speed. “The cell phone market during 2006 exceeded the growth rates in recent years, which had a direct impact in increased coverage nationwide,” says the author, “Since 1998 the market showed further growth as the year 2006, an increase of 68.99%.”

Our plan: Get advantage of their high prices and/or narrow selection to offer quality equipment at reasonable prices. Also, work with cell phone companies to sell their services as third party, similar to Best BuyPlan to serve two segments of the market; the high end that is attracted by exclusive last generation cell phone equipment, and the middle class with affordable second generation cell phones.
Their advantage: Well established in the Peruvian market and dominate the cell phone service segment; therefore, loyaltyAlso, they have offices all around the country.Vulnerabilities: Lack of first generation technology equipment at a reasonable price like in the US, and narrow selection of products.
