6. MARKET- DEMAND & SUPPLY ANALYSIS AND STRATEGY
To undertake the demand and market analysis both primary and secondary data was
collected from primary and secondary sources. The primary data was collected by personal
observation, and interviewing different peoples who work in similar business in Nazareth.
Secondary data was collected from governmental institutions such as investment office,
ministry of tourism and culture. This collected information are about market potential and
shares, demand of community for both satisfied and unsatisfied portions, pricing strategies
and related impacts.
In light of market research and previous experience of other businesses in the industry, our
target markets are international tourists, transit tourists and Addis Ababa residents. The
complete description of our target market is as follows:
Foreign tourists: - the existence of many tourist attraction sites of the country in general and
that of the city in particular are attracting a large number of tourists to the country. Hence,
these tourists prefer international standard hotel services.
Residents of Addis Ababa and Nazareth (local tourists):- The hotel is located at Nazareth
town which is the commercial center far only by 85 kilometers from capital Addis, where most
of expatriates, Diasporas, icon business men and high rank politicians are residing.
Nazareth is an important site for tourist attraction in the eastern direction of the country.
Awash National park which has different species of wild life found in the proximity of
7
Nazareth. It is also the commercial capital of Oromia Regional State several private and
government institution are there which can be potential customers to hotel projects. Several
National and International meetings and symposiums held in Nazareth.
The private and government universities and colleges attract professionals and scholar
worldwide for either research purpose or teaching at the universities. These professionals,
teaching staff, the students and visiting lecturers present great opportunities to the Hotel
business at Nazareth.
Moreover, Nazareth is the juncture to the routes of different zonal towns like Assela, Robe,
Zeway, Harar and Dire Dewa. So that, passengers from these cities create market
opportunities to Hotel in Nazareth. Its location in the rift valley and the geothermal that
sends huge smoke screens in to the sky from the plateaus and lake Langano and Sodere
resorts are also an important tourist attraction at the week end for vacation in groups using
private vehicles and renting buses from the National Tour Operation (NTO) and other tour
operators has shown persistent increase. As information obtained from these tour operators,
one of the important problems they face is the shortage of hotels at Sodere and Langano
resorts. So, hotels established in Nazareth have opportunities to cater this demand. Realizing
the gap and the opportunities for hotel business in light of the growing interest of tourist to
travel to the area for game viewing resorts and rich cultural heritages. TEFERI- BEL Business
plc is committed to invest on modern tourist class hotel equipped with all facilities and
amentias to provide comfort to tourists and also prolong their stay time.
Demand- represents the level of need that exists for hotel service.
National Demand
Ethiopia is endowed with unique cultural heritages, striking scenery, favorable climate, rich
flaura fauna, as well as important archeological sites. These blessings coupled with the
8
government’s initiative to promote the tourist attraction centers demanded the country to
invest on hotel constructions as more tourist arrival is expected in the future.
As it is well known, there are a number of factors affecting the demand of hotel catering
service. Mainly the factors are disposable income of the population, its size, willingness and
preference of the customer, quality and availability of competitors in the sector. There are
also implicit factors attributable to the general political, economical and social activities of the
country in general.
In such circumstances, it is difficult to know the exact magnitude of demand especially for
local customers and hence what could be worked out is demand forecasts based on historical
tourist’s inbound trend to Ethiopia as tourism and hotel business have a strong linkage.
Per ‘Ethiopian Tourism Commission ‘statistical abstract of the year 2008, (Latest issue).
The actual International tourist arrivals to Ethiopia for the year 2008 were 383,399.
An average annual growth rate of 7.9% over the next 10 years is expected.
A few numbers of domestic customers and domestic resident diplomatic missions would
use the services. For this project purpose, it is assumed that about 10% of the number of
Based on the above facts and figures, the tourist forecast for the coming 10 years is
presented below.

There would be from minimum 571 thousand to maximum 1.1 million tourist arrival in the
years between, 2014-2023.
A large increase in the influx of tourists registered by the country over the last few years has
overwhelmingly surpassed the capacity of hotels in Addis Ababa and the very few hotels that
are found at tourist attraction sites in the country. This has inspired the private sector to fill
the demand supply gap through investing on hotel projects.
The market survey on potential for room service demand and restaurant service at Nazreth,
Lanagano Arbminch, and Lalibela location frequented by both foreign and domestic tourists
due to their endowment with attraction resources indicate that there is great scope for room
service demand at all these locations. There is a critical shortage of tourist standard hotel in
these areas.
This shortage is aggravated particularly in peak seasons when tourists arrive in large numbers
in tourist attraction sites in the northern and southern parts of the country. Many factors
contribute to these circumstances:
10
a) Persistent growth in the number of tourists: As discussed earlier in this report, the
annual inflow of international tourists into the country has shown dramatic increase. But
this has not been supported by placing adequate infrastructure such as hotel at a
required level to cope with the demand for room service particularly outside of Addis
Ababa.
tourism. Many Ethiopian under the banner, ''Agrehen Ewek '' travels in groups and with
their families to these tourist attraction sites in the north, south and Rift valley lakes
resorts for leisure. The number from time to time has continued to grow. These
c) Conservation of wildlife and Awash National parks conservation efforts to protect the
wildlife with its natural habitat has resulted in better results. The number of wildlife and
the biodiversity increased substantially. This has attracted many tourists to National
parks for game viewing. These parks are predominantly located in the proximity of
Nazareth and rift valley and tourists travel to these areas in large number.
These are general factors that reinforce the demand for adequate room and restaurant
service at tourist attraction sites. Despite the above facts, the magnitude of demand for hotel
service for Nazareth town in particular is unknown as there is no organized statistical data.
However, per the tourism statistical bulletin No.9, about 14% of total tourist arrived in the
country visit the site outside of Addis Ababa, out of which 8% visit northern historic route-
Lalibela, Axum, etc and the southern lakes-Langano, Zeway and Abijata, and Awasa, etc.
The rest 6% of them visit the sites like eastern historic route-Harar & the surrounding, Awash,
Nechsar, Omo, etc parks. With conservative assumption, from the tourist who visits the
11
eastern historic route, 50% will pass their night in Nazareth town. Thus, we can reasonably
estimate the number of customers as follows.
The above demand is determined assuming a tourist will pass a single night. But in practice
shows us on average a tourist will pass 3-5 days and hence the level of demand wills
definitely increase more than what we have seen in the table above.
National Level
Ethiopia has a limited supply of Star and tourist standard hotels and accommodations. The
existing star hotels in the country are highly slanted towards the capital city. Hotel and
Limited supply of star hotels and over-pricing of the existing hotels for what they offered
12
Supply of hotels service is not a mere forecast of the number of available rooms, it includes
assessment of establishment and constructions, expansions, quality of the service and factors
that deal with the process of service delivery.
6- GAMBELA 4 61 85
As shown in table above the total number of star hotels room in Ethiopia in the year 2008 is
only 13,683 out of which 4,449 are found in Addis Ababa. Including the recommended and
unclassified hotel rooms, the national supply of rooms and beds is 13,683 and 17,217,
13
respectively. The supply at national level is unparallel with the national demand for the
service. The demand is far more than the supply.
Organized data indicating the number of tourist standard hotel with their room capacity,
charge, etc, is not available to determine the level of supply in Nazareth town. However, it is
confirmed that there is no hotel catering similar service in Nazareth since the hotel under
consideration is committed to invest on modern tourist class hotel equipped with all facilities
and amentias to provide comfort to tourists and also prolong their stay time.
Thus, we have a competitive advantage over the hotels rendering common services targeting
the niche market.
Demand Gap
Due to lack of supply data the level of demand gap cannot be quantified.
So far more emphasis was given for international tourist and the local tourists were somehow
neglected in the hotel services. Now a day, gathering events like, symposium and trainings,
etc are common and become potential market for hotels in Addis Ababa and other major
towns, Adma is not an exception.
Adama is found 85 Kms from Addis Ababa. It is an important site for tourist attraction in the
eastern direction of the country. Awash National park which has different species of wild life
found in the proximity of Nazareth. It is also the commercial capital of Oromia Regional State
several private and government institution are there which can be potential customers to
hotel projects. Several National and International meetings and symposiums held in Nazareth.

professionals, teaching staff, the students and visiting lecturers present great
b. Moreover, Nazareth is the juncture to the routes of different zonal towns like Assela,
Robe ,Zeway, Harar and Dire-Dewa. So that, passengers from these cities create market
opportunities to Hotel in Nazareth. Its location in the rift valley and the geothermal that

resorts are also an important tourist attraction at the week end for vacation in groups
using private vehicles and renting buses from the National Tour Operation (NTO) and
other tour operators has shown persistent increase. As information obtained from these
tour operators, one of the important problems they face is the shortage of hotels at
Sodere and Langano resorts. So, hotels established in Nazareth have opportunities to
cater this demand. Realizing the gap and the opportunities for hotel business in light of
the growing interest of tourist to travel to the area for game viewing resorts and rich
cultural heritage.
Market strategy
15
1. Price of the Services
The hotel is being constructed to fulfill the standards of a four star hotel. Hence, the service
price is to be taken in a four star hotel standard. In order to get the desired market share,
however, as entry prices shall be set at a lower. Depending on the market response to the
services and the price, periodical revision of service price is taken into consideration.
The hotel will provide all the hotel services expected in a four star hotel. It will give foreign
exchange service, business centers, sporting facilities, accommodation, and restaurant & bar
services in a pleasant environment.
3. Promotion
Promotion is vital for any business. The services of the hotel should be advertised through the
electronic and print Medias. The hotel will also develop its marketing links with touring
companies, international organizations, and Airliners. The hotel’s name will be printed in a
specialized news papers such as Selamta, the Ethiopian Tourism and Culture Ministry
publications. Sponsoring of events, conferences and symposiums will also be the other
techniques to promote the hotel. Annual budget of birr 100,000 will be allotted for the
purpose.
The proposed hotel project is going to operate with a high class hotel standard, it is,
therefore, ready to identify and monitor the price of its competitors to gain and maintain the
loyalty of the market. The best way for the project to grasp its competition is to take into
account the taste and behavior of the customers.
16
Price is the only element in the marketing mix that creates sales revenue. It is, therefore,
important to set reasonable price for all services by paying keen attention to cost, demand
and competition:-
Assess the price range and price movement of the hotel through time to support sales
and profit objective and marketing positions in the target group. The current bedroom
renting price in tourist standard hotels is very diverse even among hotels with similar star.
In order to analyze and propose the room price of the envisaged hotel, similar tourist
standard hotels were not found in Nazareth due to its unique services.
The hotel will have the following facilities for all of its customers.
Unique and well furnished bedrooms of executive suite, junior suite and deluxe type
as per the choice of the customer.
One special room for disabled customer.
24 hours laundry service
Library with cigar room
Transportation services from and to air port and to the city.
Recreational activities like swimming, horse riding, jogging and trekking,
Massage beauty center and shopping center.
Although, there is no similar hotel in Nazrth, Kuriftu hotel from Bishoftu town, somehow,
approaches the service and hence the room charges of Kuriftu are used as a base price for
rooms as follows.
17
Kuriftu charge
The room charges are taken to be 150, 100 and 200 USD for executive suite, junior suite and
deluxe, respectively. For local customers an equivalent Birr will be charge using the existing
foreign exchange rate.
The project is located in Nazareth town- 85 kilometers to south east of Addis showing fastest
growing. The project site is in front of the main asphalt road. A land holding area of 240
square meters allocated for the hotel project is adequate to accommodate the hotel building
with its facilities and enough for parking spaces.
6.5. Infrastructures
The project area is designed by professional engineers. The building designed was taken keen
attention for architectural, structural, sanitary and electrical layouts. The project site is availed
with water, electrical light and power with good access road.
