Background of the Industry or Market Analysis
The assessment aims in analysing the industry, market and business environment, of the proposed plan, which can adequately help in improving the business plan proposed by the management. The analysis would eventually use secondary research to determine the loopholes in the current business plan, which can be changed for improving the projected profits of the company. In addition, the relevant justification of the shareholders’ value for chosen case study has been conducted to determine the level of income that can be generated for improving the value of the shareholders. Furthermore, the adequate strategies recommended with relevant justification, which can adequately improve the level of income of the organisations and reduce any kind of loopholes in the business plan. The company KPIs is also evaluated to determine the level of income, which can be generated by the company to improve the current operations, while reducing the risk attributes. The overall financial plan is also provided, which can be used by the organisation to improve their current operations, while reducing the level of risk attributes of the business. Lastly, the key risk associated with the proposed plan is mainly conducted to determine the significance and loopholes in the current proposed business plan.
The background of the industry or market analysis is mainly conducted with the help of relevant framework, which can be conducted with the help of Porter’s Five Force. RaisinAble mainly falls under the dried fruit, edible nuts and seeds industry, which is currently operating in UK. The above figure directly depicts the Porter’s Five Force action, which can be used for detecting current trend of the industry and determine the level of improvements, which can be tapped into by the company to improve their current operations and profit capability. The operations of dried fruit, edible nuts and seeds industry has relevantly increased in UK, which can eventually help in improving the level of income from investment. The industry or market analysis can be conducted using relevant framework tools such as Porters five forces, which can eventually help in detecting the possible condition of the industry and how businesses can flourish in the competitive environment (Bryce 2017).
The current operations of the new business mainly, indicate the level of changes in the operations that can be conducted by the company over the period. There is no specific ruling for the industry of dried fruit, edible nuts and seeds (FNS) industry, which directly raises the concern for new entry, as the industry is not closed, while a company can be formed with the steady level of supplier. Therefore, the threat of new entry is relevantly high in case of RaisinAble Limited, as the company itself is considered to be mid-sized and one of the major contributors in the industry. Hence, it can be understood that there is relevant threat of new entry for RaisinAble Limited, as it might have negative impact on performance of the company with the rising competitiveness in the market. Hence, the organisation needs to conduct relevant competitive edge to ensure their continuity in the industry (Gliedt and Hoicka 2015).
Porter's Five Force Analysis
The buying power of the consumer is a relatively higher, as there is high competition in the industry which increases the chance of bargaining power of the buyers. The height of new entry is relatively increasing the level of competition in the market, which allows the buyers to bargain for competitive pricing of the relevant products. This directly raises the concern for RaisinAble Limited, might hamper their current and future conditions to acquire higher revenues from selling their products. High competition level in the dried fruit, edible nuts and seeds (FNS) industry will directly have negative impact on Revenues of the organization, as the need to increase their competitiveness by reducing the prices and attracting more customers. Hence, the companies need to provide credit sales for attracting higher customer and increasing their current revenue generation capability. Thus, RaisinAble limited for maintaining high level of income from operations need to provide credit to their customers.
There is no relevant substitution for dried fruits, edible nuts and seeds, as it are one of the consumable goods that are demanded by consumers. There is no significant substitution for the identified products which a relatively increases the level of opportunity for the Companies listed in the industry. The demand for such product is relatively high among high grade customers as this can be considered as one of the luxury items which are consumed by individual. Hence, the chance of low possibility of substitution will eventually raise an opportunity for RaisinAble limited, as there will be no possible customer diversification, which can hamper their current operations. Dry fruits do not have any kind of Substitute as it is considered to be one of the luxury products that are consumed by people. Therefore, companies in the industry can adequately sustain customers.
The suppliers of dried fruits, edible nuts and seeds are relevantly low in comparison to demand of the product. This relatively increases the bargaining power of the supplier, which eventually increases the concern for companies operating in dried fruits, edible nuts and seeds industry. Moreover, the low suppliers in the industry directly reduced the competitive pricing which can hamper the profitability conditions of the company. Therefore, RaisinAble limited can directly have problematic conditions, due to the low level of suppliers to replenish their inventory. Moreover, there will no credit provided by the suppliers, as the demand for the products is relevantly high, while the supply is limited. Hence, companies within the dried fruits, edible nuts and seeds industry needs to comply with the suppliers demand (Meyers et al. 2016).
Threat of New Entry
There is significant secondary research that has been conducted to understand the level of improvements, which can allow the company to detect the accurate level of income that can be generated in future. The relevant secondary research has been conducted in dried fruits, edible nuts and seeds industry, which can help in detecting the alternative Strategies and opportunities that allow the organisation to benefit from the changing trends. The analysis of the business plan relatively indicated significant alterations that need to be conducted by the company in improving the current operations, where certain changes need to be conducted in the budget.

The scale relatively indicates over of importers that import dry fruits from exporting countries. The above figure directly depicts the level of demand that is needed in United Kingdom regarding the dried fruits edible nuts and seeds. Hence, relevant changes need to be conducted in the business plan of RaisinAble limited, as the predicted changes in trend of product consumption is not depicted in the plan. Therefore, the alteration would eventually help in determining the accurate level of revenues that can be generated by the organization in future terms. This would eventually allow the business plan to be more realistic in nature, while allowing the organization to detect possible opportunities in future (Kral, Bannon and Moorr 2016).
The above figure relatively indicates the overall inflation rate of United Kingdom from 2012-2022. This inflation rate is a relatively projected on an average to determine the level of inflation that might income within the country in future years. The general inflation rate that was taken in the business plan was not adequate and was relatively higher in comparison to the current inflation rate that is taken into consideration. This inflation rate has been determined with the help of an adequate average method which allows the future projections in the inflation rate, which can be used in the business plan. Thus, alteration in the business plan needs to be conducted to identify the viable increment in expenses that might be incurred in future years (Vigano Zabot and Martinez 2017). Hence, this would eventually improve the level of projections that can be generated from the business plan and allow the organization to smoothly conduct its operation during the next 5 fiscal years.
Buying Power of the Consumer
The above figure relatively indicates the level of improvement in the demand of dry fruits other products in UK from 2014 to 2025. Demand of dried fruits nuts and seeds are relatively indicated to increase over the period of time in UK which will raise the level of retail prices. Therefore, relevant average of the previous trend in retail prices can be taken into consideration to forecast future prices which were previously not conducted in the business plan. This would eventually help in providing viable information to the organization, which can take adequate steps to improve the profitability in future. The continuous rise in demand would eventually motivate organizations to increase the level of prices, which can allow them to generate higher revenue from operations. Therefore, altering the overall Business plan would eventually allow RaisinAble limited to understand the changes in demand frequently price their products in future years.
RaisinAble limited has relevant key performance indicators that allow the organisation to compete in the industry, while generating higher revenues. This key performance indicators has a relatively allowed the organisation to improve their operational capability and maintain the level of higher revenues over the previous fiscal years.

The production process of RaisinAble Limited is relatively adequate, which allows the organisation to reduce the level of expenses that might incur while completing the operations. Moreover, the employees that is used by the organisation is highly qualified, who are relatively increasing the level of operations, while reducing the excessive cost that might incur from the operations. The company relatively follows a low cost production process, which allows them to reduce the level of expenses that is included in cost of production while maintaining adequate revenue from operations.

The above table indicates the level of profitability, which can be generated from the operations of RaisinAble. In addition, the improvements in net cash balance of the company can be witnessed over the newly proposed plan, which was not previously present in the old business plan. This was mainly achieved by changing the relevant assumptions of the business plan, which was not being suitable for the company. The new business plan is relevantly considered to have all the relevant information regarding different changing trends, which helps in projecting the adequate business plan for the company. Burns and Dewhurst (2016) argued that projection of the business could be faulty due to the lack of adequate research, which can alter the financial performance of the company and project wrong financial projects.

The above tables directly indicate the level of improvement, which can be conducted by the new business for projecting relevant information. The change in current trend might eventually help in detecting the accurate level of improvements over the period. Ward (2016) mentioned that with the use of adequate trend analysis companies are mainly able to detect the level of future projects, which can help in detecting the future returns of the business. The changes in the cost of inflation, raw material price inflation and general inflation might eventually help in understanding the level of changes in the projects sales and cost of the company. The projected financial performance of the company under the new business plan is much more realistic, as it helps in determining the accurate level of improvements in the current operation. Hence, with the relevant assumption the alteration in the financial project of RaisinAble can be conducted, which is anticipated to be more realistic in nature, as it complies with the current and project trend, which was not being used in the previously plan.
