P2 – Tax policies
Paying taxes is normal to a professional citizen. According to the site (Rappler), it is a
fund employed by the government to provide fundamental social services in order to give
citizens with economic growth and vital lives. There is a law regarding the payment of
taxes, so every individual should pay. Mang Inasal and other fast-food restaurants are
required to pay taxes. The taxes affected the expenses of all businesses or restaurants,
so if the taxes are reduced, it will be a great opportunity to expand and earn a higher
amount of income.
Economic Factors
E1 – Fluctuation in the unemployment rate
During covid19, the quarantine process is not good enough for the citizens, it affects the
unemployment rate for businesses and others that have an employee that is caused to
have a fluctuation in the unemployment rate, it also caused people to lose their job.
According to a researcher named Gene Falk (2021), he said “The COVID-19 pandemic
has had a significant effect on labor market metrics for every state, economic sector, and
major demographic group in the United States.” This is one of the reasons why Mang
Inasal has a labor shortage, but since we are in a pandemic there are not too many
customers. If the government does not find the solution on how to solve the problem,
people will lose their money and cannot buy some expensive product for their needs.
Social Factors
S1 – Social attitudes and social trends
According to a researcher named Ian Estares (2019), he said “There are 76 million active
Filipino social media users, who spend four hours every day on various social media
sites”. There are many marketing strategies to promote a product, it is either advertising
famous people or discrediting the company. Social Media is a weapon to those people
who have a bad attitude, they use it to get what they want from the shop or store. Many
businesses are afraid when a person posted about them, so they are more careful when it
comes to social media. Social media helps to promote a product, and this is a great
opportunity to have free advertising.
S2 – Religious believers
Religion has a huge impact in the food industry, since they have their own beliefs, and
they have forbidden food such as pork and the blood of a pig. There are advantage and
disadvantage of religion, the advantage of religious beliefs have a good effect on their
lifestyle since they are not allowed to eat foods that are forbidden for them, the
disadvantage of religious belief is they will be curious about what other religion eats.
Mang Inasal is part of a fast-food restaurant that affects religious believers.
Technological Factors
T1 – Payment method
There are two types of payment methods we used to pay for our purchased item, cash on
delivery and online payment. Some people use online payment when they do not have
cash in their pocket. In our era, we all use gadgets for a transaction, communication, and
other stuff that gadgets can do. Based on the website (Mang Inasal), they expand the
services for delivery, they also have an online transaction for the payment such as E-
wallets, Credit Bank Deposits, QR Codes, and other stuff that can pay online. This
payment helps people to pay easily. This is an opportunity for Mang Inasal to have a lot of
consumers.
T2 – Application
In this era, we are more on technology. Technology helps us to do our work easily. There
is a lot of application that we can use to buy some foods such as Grab food, Lala food,
and food panda. We can also buy some products from the applications such as Shopee
and Lazada. Having an application is useful to have easy access to buy products. There
also have a card that uses for discounts. Since they are also part of Jollibee Foods
Corporation which developed a mechanism that uses Happy Plus Cards.
T3 – Electronic
Technology had a huge impact on improving the services of Mang inasal. Electronic tools
have an important role in this era, since we are surrounded by electronic devices, we
should learn how to use electronic tools. We used electronic devices every day for doing
important things. Many unknown fast food and food businesses imitated Mang's method,
goods, and services. Mang Inasal is still upgrading regularly to provide high-quality
service and maintain its philosophy. Their philosophy is “serving great Food, delivering
excellent service, and maintaining Cleanliness and good store condition every day.”
