In addition to special occasions, every passing night, palm wine lovers gulp down the beverage drink in local bars and palm wine joints both in towns and villages.

SWOT Analysis
Knowing fully well that with a proper SWOT analysis we will be able to position our business to maximize our strengths, leverage on the opportunities that will be available to us, mitigate our weaknesses and be welled equipped to confront our threats. We therefor employed the service of a Business Analyst with background in winery industry to help us conduct a thorough SWOT analysis and we came up with the following results
Strength:
- We can rightfully claim to have some of the most skilled workers in Nigeria’s winery industry as well as the top processing tools.
- What will definitely count as a strong strength for the business is that we grow our own palm at our farm and we are directly involved in all the process
- Another strength we leverage on is our location.
- We have a management team with vast experience who are highly experienced and understand how to grow business from scratch to becoming a national phenomenon
- One of our strengths as a palm wine bottling company is that we have solid connections with a lot of key actors, including domestic and international suppliers and purchasers.
Weakness:
- As a start-up, one major weakness is the fact that we are a new company and we don’t have the market credibility yet especially from international markets which is highly competitive already as a lot of other big players are in the industry.
- As a result of limited funds, we presently operate in just one location which will seriously limit our vision of supplying to our target markets locally and internationally.
Opportunities:
- The fact that we are going to be operating our Palm Wine Bottling and Preservation company close to significant states and megacities like Lagos State because of our location which provides us with unlimited opportunities to sell to a large number of people.
- The demand for bottled palm wine is estimated at 29.2 million litres per annum and the supply is just 20% of the above figure. That is a clear show of the demand-supply gap. This gap is what we are capitalizing on at PATILAD
Threat:
- One of the major threats is the arrival of a new Palm Wine Bottling and Preservation company in the same location where ours is located in the nearest future
- Another threat that we are likely going to face is the economic downturn which has affected the purchasing power of potential customers.
