It provides roasted chickens that come in assorted flavors to a specific target market found within a one-kilometer radius of the business location in Kalookan City, Metro Manila, Philippines.

Super Roasters faces competition from several industry players, such as Andoks, Baliwag, Sr. Pedro, and Mang Boks, in a industry worth an estimated P37-billion which has been growing from 4% to 6% per annum over the last five years (Years 2002 to 2006). The Philippine roasted chicken industry is characterized by strong competition due to strong threat of new entrants, strong threat of substitute products, strong bargaining power of buyers, and strong bargaining power of suppliers. Furthermore, this industry is influenced by certain driving forces such as changes in the long-term industry growth rate and changing societal concerns, attitudes, and lifestyle.
