Executive Summary

In 2001, Goldman Sachs published a report entitled "Building Better Global Economic BRICs". Since then, Brazil, Russia, India, and China have grabbed the attention worldwide. Ten years has passed, some investors start to think: where is the next potential market for investment? BOP (base of the pyramid) markets are considered as the emerging markets for the following decades.

In this report, Papua New Guinea, where Malaria is the leading cause of illness and death, is identified as the target market. Although the NPO has provided mosquito nets to local residents, it can't prevent people from being bitten when doing outdoor activities. On the other hand, mosquito coils have been recognized as an effective repellent against mosquitoes.

Base on the information, exporting mosquito coils from Mainland China to Papua New Guinea is considered as a feasible business model.

With the competitive price, high quality product, precise target markets, and reasonable profit, we can guarantee that this is a worthwhile investment.

The purpose of this proposal is to identify Papua new Guineans' needs. We aim to export a product that can improve Papua new Guineans' lives. A comprehensive research would be conducted and a business model would be suggested in this proposal as well.
