Challenge - explained
SK Group is one of largest conglomerates (chaebols) in South Korea. The Group is involved in many industries such as chemical, petroleum, energy, healthcare, etc. With the purpose of sourcing Vietnam used cooking oip suppliers for its production of biofuels in Korea, SK Vietnam would like to get in-depth understanding of this market in Vietnam. UCOs is a niche market so that it is difficult for SK to access market data and market insight as well as its key trends. In addition, it is challenging for SK to find target suppliers meeting their demand because only small amount of used cooking oil was collected for export purpose since the exported volume of used cooking oil from Vietnam accounted for only 16% total edible oil consumption in 2019.
