  • Ararat Brandy
    ArArAt Brandy: Transforming a Legend into a Modern Icon 08/2014-5660 This case was written by Amitava Chattopadhyay, the GlaxoSmithKline Chaired Professor of Corporate Innovation at INSEAD and Fellow of the Institute on Asian Consumer Insight, and Vadim Grigorian, Marketing Director of Creativity and Luxury, Pernod Ricard. It is intended to be used as a basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate either effective or ineffective handling of an administrative situation. Additional material about INSEAD case studies (e.g., videos, spreadsheets, links) can be accessed at cases.insead.edu. Copyright © 2014 INSEAD COPIES MAY NOT BE MADE WITHOUT PERMISSION. NO PART OF THIS PUBLICATION MAY BE COPIED, STORED, TRANSMITTED, REPRODUCED OR DISTRIBUTED IN ANY FORM OR MEDIUM WHATSOEVER WITHOUT THE PERMISSION OF THE COPYRIGHT OWNER. Vadim Grigorian, Marketing Director for Pernod-Ricard Russia, was lost in thought in his office as a wintry sun failed to warm passers-by in the snow-covered Moscow streets below. He had a lot on his mind. What could he do to move the ArArAt brand to the next level? Currently the largest brand of brandy in Russia, with an enviable 32% market share and a long history, ArArAt was one of the jewels in Pernod Ricard Russia’s alcoholic beverage portfolio. After a recent product update, five key questions remained: 1. Which consumer segment(s) should ArArAt be targeted at? 2. What should be the ArArAt brand platform? 3. Which of the five advertising options before him (recent agency pitches for the ArArAt account) should he choose? 4. Should all seven sub-brands in the ArArAt portfolio feature in the campaign, or only some of them? If the latter, which ones should he select? 5.

  • Ararat Akhtamar Brandy 10 Years Old
    ARARAT AKHTAMAR BRANDY 10 YEARS OLD Yerevan Brandy Company CJSC, Yerevan, Armenia (since 1887) SAQ # 13209882 │ 40.0% alc./vol. │ $50.50 “Deep amber colour. Aromas of roasted nuts, caramel, dried fruits and raisins follow through on a buoyant, slightly tannic entry to a dry-yet-fruity medium body with notes of cocoa and earth. Finishes with a mashed raisin, dried tobacco, and dusty wood spice fade”. (Beverage Testing Institute) Beautiful amber colour with a touch of copper. Lively and elegant aroma. Beeswax, hazelnut and oak bark with traces of vanilla and dried plum dominate the bouquet. Rounded, hidden, sweetish taste unfolds gradually offering you a temptingly long aftertaste. Light dryness in the end is counter-balanced by shades of cinnamon. During his reign in the 10th century, King Gagik I of the Bagratuni dynasty chose to build a luxurious royal residence on Akhtamar Island, situated on Lake Van in the heart of the medieval Duchy of Greater Armenia. The spacious palace was surrounded by gardens and orchards. The name of the island was inspired by the legend of Princess Tamar and her love for a handsome young man who drowned in the harsh waters of Lake Van with the words 'Ah, Tamar'. Process: Wine goes through two distillation phases: primary and secondary, fractional distillation. The first distillation produces 32° alcohol, which is then distilled again. Secondary distillation separates alcohol into three fractions: head, heart and tail. Only the heart, the purest, thinnest and delicate fraction, is used as the basis for ARARAT brandies. Ageing: 10 years in Caucasian oak.

Introduction Private Security Companies (PSCs) have become an established industry throughout the world. In some countries such as Russia, the US, the UK, Germany, Israel, South Africa and the Philippines, the number of domestic PSC employees and the size of PSC budgets exceed that of the state security apparatus.1 While their activities can make a useful contribution to ensuring security, the work of PSCs is often not subject to sufficient public oversight and control. This is of particular concern as the paid services they provide to private clients have traditionally been within the exclusive domain of the state law enforcement agencies.
