MEMORY SUBMITTED BY: TERESA GÓMEZ ALBUIXECH DEGREE IN BUSINESS AND MANAGEMENT ADMINISTRATION Call for defence: 05-2020 McVeggie’s Marketing Plan RESUMEN: A lo largo del siguiente trabajo final de grado se va a desarrollar de manera detallada y aplicando las teorías del Marketing de Philip Kotler y Jerome Mc Carthy, la viabilidad del lanzamiento de un producto ya existente en algunos mercados europeos, pero no en el español. Se trata de la McVeggie, conocida como la hamburguesa vegana de McDonald’s. Para poder analizar esta viabilidad, se hará en primer lugar, un estudio de la situación actual del entorno del mercado español en cuanto a comida rápida y por otro lado un análisis de lo que representa la gran compañía estadounidense en España. Terminada dicha búsqueda se procederá al estudio de la sociedad española en cuanto a gustos y preferencias a la hora de consumir McDonald’s mediante el uso de unos cuestionarios elaborados exclusivamente para la ocasión. Una vez analizados y contrastados los datos generados por las respuestas a los cuestionarios, se procederá a la confección de un Plan de Marketing basado en unas estadísticas realistas y, por tanto, ajustado a los gustos y necesidades reflejadas por los consumidores actuales y potenciales. Todo esto se desarrollará y plasmará mediante las técnicas de búsqueda y metodologías aprendidas durante el grado de Administración y Dirección de Empresas.
