06.09 Analyse compétitive
Chikoya Farm Solutions is not as weak as other business are. This business was solely been operated by Mr. Anderson Chikoya as primary farmer, who was being helped by his two family members. After a year Anderson managed to employ four casual labourers to be assisting the field work. This business has survived perilous times such as COVID 19 pandemic period, when world's economy paralyzed. But Chikoya Farm Solutions was been anchored by business management skills under the ownership and supervision of Mr. Anderson Chikoya. This speaks a lot that the business is growing internally. Establishing branches in other cities signifies external growth of the business. After 3 to 4 years, Chikoya Farm Solutions is intending of having permanent branches within Malawi. But currently, it operates in three major cities of Malawi namely; Lilongwe, Mzumzu, and Blantyre. Chikoya Farm Solutions secured an office at Synergy Complex where it is intending to have the head office there by 1st June, 2024.
