  • Case with Questions J Cadbury 1
    j Case with questions Cadbury 1 Cadbury is a very well known British confectionery company. Originally a family fi rm started by John Cadbury and grounded in Quaker values and ideals, it started life in 1824 as a shop selling chocolate as a virtuous alternative to alcohol. It went on to become a large-scale manufacturer of chocolate based at the now legendary Bournville factory, built in 1879, and its picturesque workers’ village with its red-brick terraces, cottages, duck ponds and wide open parks. Over the next 100 years Cadbury developed the products that have become so familiar: Dairy Milk in 1905, Milk Tray in 1915, Flake in 1920, Creme Egg in 1923, Roses in 1938 and more. From 1969 it traded as Cadbury Schweppes plc until, in 2008, it separated its global con- fectionery business (which retained the name ‘Cadbury’) from its US beverages business, which was renamed Dr Pepper Snapple Group Inc. Cadbury Schweppes had already sold off most of its beverages businesses in other countries around the world, a process started in 1999 and concluded in 2009 with the sale of its Australian beverages business. The reason for the exit from the beverages business was to enable Cadbury to focus more clearly on what it saw as its core strengths in confectionery, and better enhance shareholder value. Beverages had become the ‘poor sister’ in the relationship, with a separate management structure but delivering growth below the targets for the company. In 2008 the newly de-merged Cadbury set as its goal maintaining its market leadership position, and leveraging its scale and advantaged positions so as to maximise growth and returns.

Aanleiding voor dit onderzoek was dat bij managementbeslissin- gen rond merken (zoals het uit de markt nemen van het merk Postbank) de me- ning van de consument meestal niet wordt gevraagd. In 2009 is dit onderzoek met een geüpdate lijst van merknamen herhaald. Centraal in dit onderzoek staat de zogenoemde onmisbaarheidscore, het percentage van de responden- ten dat bij een merk aangeeft het jammer te vinden als dit het komend jaar uit de markt genomen zou worden. Hoe hoger het percentage, des te meer een merk als onmisbaar wordt ervaren. De resultaten van dit onderzoek uit 2009 zijn ingedeeld in drie paragrafen.

EURIB Postbus 4407 3006 AK Rotterdam www.eurib.org / [email protected] 2 Managementsamenvatting De laatste tien jaar is een groot aantal merken uit het Nederlandse merkenland- schap verdwenen. Het uit de markt nemen van merken (‘delistings’) komt voort uit managementbeslissingen waarbij gewoonlijk niet naar de mening van de consument wordt gevraagd. EURIB/ European Institute for Brand management heeft besloten in de discussie over het uit de markt nemen van merken, de consument zelf eens aan het woord te laten. In een recent uitgevoerd onder- zoek stond de vraag centraal welke merken Nederlanders zouden missen als ze uit de markt zouden worden genomen. Aan 1.049 consumenten is voor 1.327 merken gevraagd in hoeverre ze als onmisbaar worden ervaren. Centraal in dit onderzoek staat de zogenoemde onmisbaarheidscore, het per- centage van de respondenten dat bij een merk heeft aangegeven het jammer te vinden als deze het komend jaar van de markt zou verdwijnen. Hoe hoger het percentage, des te meer onmisbaar een merk wordt ervaren. De resultaten van dit onderzoek zijn ingedeeld in drie paragrafen.

  • The Changing Face of Economics and the Consequences for Industry
    Fergus Carr 2505361 History and Theory The changing face of economics and the consequences for industry In this essay I am going to study the way in which a changing economy affects the architecture of industry. I am going to examine the change of use of the Peek Freans biscuit factory in Bermondsey from confectionary manufactory (use class B2) to offices and studios (use class B1). It is a fact that industrial units are redeveloped when the existing infrastructure becomes outdated or outmoded. However, I feel that there may be more to the redevelopment of the Bermondsey site than may meet the eye. Firstly I would like to address the question of classical economics, which relied upon the belief that “the pursuit of individual self interest produced the greatest possible economic benefits for society as a whole, through the power of the invisible hand”.1 This meant that the state would have a laissez-faire policy towards the regulation of industry. That it was the captains of Industry that provided capital for cultural and community projects such as art galleries, museums and more pertinently social housing, which gave rise to the creation and development of communities based entirely on the local industry, examples of which can be found In the chocolate company Cadbury’s model village Bourneville near Birmingham, tobacco company RJ Reynolds in Winston-Salem in the USA and Peek Freans “Biscuit Town” of Bermondsey in London, to name but a few of the most pertinent examples. When James Peek and his business partner George Hender Frean established the Peek Freans Company in 1857, they had anticipated Mr.

This chapter examines product-related issues and sug- gests conceptual approaches for handling them. Also discussed are product development, brand (labelling) strategies, service policies and Internet product decisions (including ‘long tail’). M11_HOLL6830_02_SE_C11.QXD 16/1/10 6:15 pm Page 393 CHAPTER 11 PRODUCT AND SERVICE DECISIONS 393 What is a product? Products, or services, are the vital ingredients of the market offering and are the vehicles for providing customer satisfaction. The product is the object of the exchange process, the thing which the producer or supplier offers to a potential customer in exchange for something else which the supplier perceives as equivalent or greater value. Conventionally, this something else is money. In the absence of money, we must resort to barter or counter trade where goods are traded against other goods.
