Resumen
La generación de desechos que contaminan el medio ambiente es un problema
relevante en la actualidad. Parte de estos desechos son los productos que, pese a su buen
estado, se eliminan debido a encontrarse próximos a su fecha de vencimiento. Con la
aplicación de metodologías ágiles se identificó que dicho problema es significativo, tanto
para el consumidor como para el proveedor del sector retail, debido al impacto nocivo en el
medio ambiente y a las pérdidas económicas que se generan por no vender esos productos. La
propuesta de solución consta del desarrollo de un marketplace, en versión web y app,
mediante el cual se comercializan productos cercanos a la fecha de vencimiento, de baja
rotación y/o en sobrestock, ofreciendo descuentos del 50% en promedio; esta solución se
dirige a un mercado objetivo conformado por los consumidores de niveles socioeconómicos
A, B y C que realizan sus compras para el hogar en medios digitales y que prefieren el
ahorro. La deseabilidad y factibilidad del proyecto están sustentadas en el plan de mercadeo,
el plan de operaciones y la prueba del prototipo, así como en los resultados de las entrevistas
y encuestas realizadas a consumidores y proveedores. El proyecto es viable económicamente
debido a que en los primeros cinco años de operación se obtiene un Valor Actual Neto
(VAN) de S/ 1’864,704, considerando un incremento gradual de la penetración en el mercado
objetivo y el crecimiento del mercado digital. Respecto al factor social, la solución es
relevante debido a que impacta en tres Objetivos de Desarrollo Sostenible (ODS) y a que
cuenta con un Valor Actual Neto Social (VANS) de S/ 5’048,080; además, el consumidor se
ve beneficiado económicamente con un ahorro tangible en los gastos de compra de la canasta
familiar. Finalmente, para que el proyecto sea implementado satisfactoriamente, se
recomienda enfocar esfuerzos en puntos clave como el plan de marketing, la negociación del
surtido con proveedores, el plan de crecimiento del negocio y la logística urbana.
The generation of waste that pollutes the environment is a relevant problem nowadays. Part of this waste are products that, despite their good condition, are disposed of since they are close to their expiration date. With the application of agile methodologies, the fact that this problem is significant was identified, both for the consumer and for the retail sector supplier, due to the harmful impact on the environment and the economic losses generated by not selling these products. The proposed solution comprises the development of a marketplace, in web and app versions, through which products close to their expiration date, with low rotation and/or in overstock are marketed, offering discounts of 50% on average; this solution is aimed at a target market made up of consumers belonging to socioeconomic levels A, B and C who carry out their household purchases in digital media and who prefer to save. The desirability and feasibility of the project are supported by the marketing plan, the operations plan, and the prototype test, as well as the results of the interviews and surveys conducted with consumers and suppliers. The project is economically viable because in the first five years of operation an NPV of S/. 1'864,704 is obtained, considering a gradual increase in the penetration of the target market and the growth of the digital market. With regards to the social factor, the solution is relevant since it has an impact on three Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and has a social NPV of S/ 5’048,080; in addition, the consumer is economically benefited with tangible savings in the purchase costs of the family shopping basket. Finally, for the project to be implemented satisfactorily, it is recommended to focus efforts on key points such as the marketing plan, the negotiation of the assortment with suppliers, the business growth plan and urban logistics.
