What is included in the product
The Word template contains a full Porter's Five Forces supermarket analysis: executive summary, force-by-force write-ups, strategic implications, and suggested tactical moves, all professionally structured for business plans and investor decks.
The Excel template provides a high-level visual summary: editable force ratings, radar charts, and a customizable scorecard for quick strategic assessments and investor-ready snapshots.
Instant Access & Easy Customization

Covers All Five Competitive Forces
The template breaks down each force for supermarkets: industry rivalry, threat of substitutes, buyer bargaining power, supplier bargaining power, and new entrants-each with grocery-specific indicators like inventory turn, perishability, and private-label pressure.
Industry-Specific & Market-Relevant
All content targets supermarket realities: perishable inventory, narrow margins, loyalty programs, and local sourcing-so conclusions tie directly to buying cadence, shelf space, and supplier contracts you manage daily.
Clear & Professional Formatting
Layouts are clean, presentation-ready, and sectioned for quick reading-use the Word doc for narrative strategy and the Excel sheet for visual force ratings and charts when meeting stakeholders.
Investor & Business-Plan Ready
Use the analysis directly in investor decks and business plans to show you understand market threats and defenses; the template includes concise conclusions and suggested tactical moves that investors expect to see.

Ideal for Students & Business Schools
