SWOT Analysis

Strengths

Unique Flavor Profile: Camote (sweet potato) and langka (jackfruit) create
a distinct taste and aroma that sets this product apart from traditional
banana turon

Healthier Alternative: Sweet potatoes are high in fiber and vitamins,


making camote turon a healthier option compared to other sugary snacks
or pastries.

Nostalgic Appeal: The snack draws on Filipino culture and tradition,


appealing to consumers’ sense of nostalgia while providing a twist on a
beloved street food.

Versatile Product Forms: Camote turon can be sold as a fresh snack, frozen
for later cooking, or packaged for on-the-go snacking

Weaknesses

Less Familiarity: Traditional banana turon is more popular and familiar to


Filipino consumers, so there may be some hesitation with the camote
version.

Perishable Ingredients: Both sweet potato and jackfruit have limited shelf
life, which can affect storage, distribution, and freshness.

Labor-Intensive Production: Preparation requires peeling, chopping, and


wrapping, which could slow down production and impact scalability.

Pricing Sensitivity: High-quality ingredients and labor might lead to a


higher price point, potentially deterring budget-conscious consumers.

Opportunities
Growing Demand for Healthy Snacks: As more consumers seek healthier
and less processed snack options, camote turon can appeal to this trend.

Seasonal and Holiday Promotions: Leverage festivals and holidays to


promote the snack as a traditional yet innovative Filipino treat.

Collaboration with Restaurants and Cafes: Partnering with local cafes or


restaurants to offer camote turon as a unique dessert could boost brand
visibility.

Expansion to International Markets: Filipino cuisine is gaining global


popularity, offering potential to export camote turon as a cultural snack
for international markets

Threats

Competition with Traditional Turon and Other Filipino Snacks: Banana


turon, banana cue, and other familiar snacks may retain more customer
loyalty.

Supply Chain and Ingredient Costs: The price and availability of quality
sweet potatoes and jackfruit could fluctuate, affecting pricing and profit
margins.

Consumer Taste Preferences: Some consumers may prefer the sweetness


of bananas over sweet potatoes, impacting product acceptance.

Economic Downturns: Economic challenges could reduce consumer


spending on non-essential, higher-priced snacks, limiting market reach.

This SWOT analysis suggests that with targeted marketing to emphasize


health benefits, cultural appeal, and unique flavors, camote turon with
langka can overcome challenges and capitalize on growing trends in both
local and global markets.

the traditional appeal of turon while offering a twist with sweet potato and
jackfruit, this product caters to both nostalgic consumers and health-

snack, especially if marketed effectively as a healthier, nostalgic, and
