  • Mystery Shopper on Your Journey Around Cadbury World - It Is Your Opinion
    Study Tour Booklet Topics covered in this booklet are: Customer needs Communication Presentation of staff Customer records Created by S McLoughlin and C Marsh 2005 (Education Consultants) Cadbury World Cadbury World is the UK’s leading paid admission visitor centre, and it’s the 30th biggest tourist attraction (Visit Britain “Visits to Tourist Attractions 2002) it was opened at a cost of £5.9 million, in 1990. It was seen as a new venture into leisure, to rival other leisure attraction operators, but was principally a public relations tool, which quickly became a popular half-day visit for devotees of Cadbury’s chocolate, of all ages. Cadbury World is owned by Cadbury U.K. It is self-contained in that it has no direct responsibility for the marketing of individual confectionery brands, although there is a major (unquantified) contribution to the image of the Cadbury master-brand. The original vision for Cadbury World was to be an alternative attraction for the many thousands of members of the public denied access to the Bournville factory since 1969. Factory tours ceased around the time of the merger between Cadbury and Schweppes. In setting up Cadbury World, in the face of strict health and safety and hygiene legislation, the vision was to underpin the central message of “Cadbury means chocolate means fun” with the interpretation of cocoa and Cadbury’s chocolate both past and present. Later, the vision developed as follows: To significantly enhance consumers’ perceptions of Cadbury and develop long term brand loyalty by: • Giving the visitor a memorable and enjoyable, uniquely Cadbury chocolate experience • Offering high quality and good value for money • Delivering Cadbury values of fun and family, whilst achieving a break-even cost target for Cadbury Limited.

  • About Asheville Suggested Activities Hop on Hop Off Trolley Tour The
    About Asheville There’s something about Asheville that makes its blend of remote Appalachian charm and cosmopolitan sophistication seem perfectly natural. The city abounds in cultural attractions and events, many stemming from the literary greats who have lived here. Thomas Wolfe, Carl Sandburg, and O. Henry have all called Asheville home. The area’s spectacular beauty led millionaire George W. Vanderbilt to locate Biltmore, his castle-like mansion, in Asheville, and the city has historically been a resort for the wealthy. But there’s also a friendly, small-town atmosphere – the city has a way of making visitors feel right at home. Located at the confluence of two rivers and nestled in the mountains, Asheville is a magnet for outdoor enthusiasts who have their pick of hiking, mountain biking, whitewater rafting, hot air ballooning and many other year-round activities. Architecture buffs can study the Art Deco city hall, turn-of-the-century houses and Tudor-style home. Asheville is home to the second largest collection of art deco architecture in the south. So breathe in the fresh mountain air, take a spin along the Blue Ridge Parkway – “America’s most scenic drive” and soak up the beauty and spirit of this lovely mountain city. Suggested Activities This year we are offering some complimentary activity options as well as a list of a la care suggestions for you.
