Abstract: GLEAN, EDLYN BENCITO, Distribution Strategies of Agricultural Feeds: The case of the Cavite Feeds Milling Corporation. Case Study. Bachelor of Science in Business Management major in Agribusiness, Cavite State University. Indang, Cavite. April 2003. Adviser: Dr. Nelia C. Cresino. A case study was conducted in Cavite Feeds Milling corporation from November 25, 2002, to January 30, 2003, primarily to identify problems encountered in the distribution of products; describe the distribution strategies adopted by CAFCOR; and analyze the cost incurred by CAFCOR in the distribution of feeds. The necessary data were obtained through personal interviews and observations. Relevant information were also secured from the company's records and files. A descriptive method was used in analyzing the data. Frequency count and the percentage were used to determine the coverage number of the CAFCOR's products transferred and delivered to different areas. CAFCOR is headed by the highest authority in the company, the President, and Chief Executive Officers. This is composed of the major stockholders of the company. The management did not encounter many problems with the employees due to the harmonious relationship practiced by the company. It provides and drives culture which supports people confidence, motivation, and ambition to succeed. The company uses two channels in distributing their products. CAFCOR attempts to improve the distribution channel to be able to reach the company’s goal. The distribution strategy provides an increase in the company’s sales and consumer convenience. The company also increases its sales and profits through a price adjustment strategy which attract the customers to increase orders. The distribution strategies of the company are ordering products, transporting, distribution channel and distribution cost. Company has salesman who negotiates with the customers regarding their orders. Upon the approval of warehouseman, sales coordinator, delivery coordinator and accountant, the products are loaded depending upon on the order of customers. The company’s trucks and hired trucks are used to distribute ordered products. It was found that the firm was facing problems in the distribution of products. Due to the laziness and irresponsibility of the driver, checker and helper, the delivery coordinator encountered problems. The distribution process should be closely monitored by the delivery coordinator, and it should be strictly implemented. This problem can be solved through the cooperation of employees and workers. The company produces nineteen classes of feed. Broiler Starter Mash has the highest volume of production with a total of 75,638 bags while Rabbit Pellet has the lowest volume of product with a total of 1,122 bags. In terms of pricing, Hog Starter Crumble and Hog Starter Pellet Special are the most expensive which costs P685 per bag, while Pigeon Pellet is the least expensive which cost P315 per bag. CAFCOR is now an established company. However, the feed mill lacks machines for production. The company already has a new building that will be used as a warehouse for storage of feeds.
