Section 2: Market Analysis

o For instance, you can say that the market data you have collected
creates an opportunity or a threat to the business
For example:
The average UK household spends £150 on plants every year and the UK
horticulture market is worth approximately £25 billion annually. This indicates that the
market is popular in the UK and numerous people spend a lot on horticulture
products in the UK depending on the time of the year therefore, this creates an
opportunity since there’s a steady trend within the market.
Section 3: Financial information on both options

options!
