  • Under Fire, Fast Food Giants Switch to Healthier Fare
    _______________________________________________________________________ USA Today, McLean, VA Under Fire, Food Giants Switch to Healthier Fare July 1, 2003 Bruce Horovitz <<<>>> This document is available on the Education Policy Studies Laboratory website at http://www.asu.edu/educ/epsl/CERU/Articles/CERU-0307-127-OWI.doc ________________________________________________________________________ Junk food's best consumers are kids -- increasingly obese kids. So that's not the dinner bell you hear. It's an alarm bell raising Oreo-size goose bumps for the giant makers of now-unfashionable sugary, fatty and calorie-laden foods. All are faced with this new reality: As concern about obesity rises, they're within a few cookie crumbs of becoming the next Big Tobacco for trial lawyers. "You can't stop tobacco from being unhealthy," says Sam Hirsch, an attorney whose obese clients filed lawsuits against McDonald's. "But you can make food less unhealthy." Consumer groups are screaming. Parents are steaming. Lawyers are suing. The obese are stewing. Lawmakers are threatening a "fat tax." And some analysts are giving food stocks the ax. That's why, faster than you can say "supersize it," the nation's food behemoths are responding: * Kraft Foods, the nation's largest food company, will announce today a sweeping, global overhaul of the way it creates, packages and promotes its foods. Kraft plans to reduce the portion size, fat and calories of many of its foods, a move that other major food companies worldwide are expected to mimic. "This will force everyone else to review their policies and get on board," says Derek Yach, coordinator of diet and physical activity at the powerful World Health Organization.

  • Cannibalization Definition
    CANNIBALIZATION: Cannibalization refers to the notion of a company making a conscious business decision that will have a negative impact on either a current product or member of a distribution channel (or entire channel, via disintermediation). This type of decision is typically designed to allow the company to survive in the long-term, and avoid having its products challenged by competitors' products as technology progresses. PRODUCT BUILDING Product Bundling refers to the bundling together of more than one product for a sale. This is very common for digital products, where the marginal costs of each product is very low. If most of the marginal cost is associated with packaging and distribution, this is further reduced when the products are bundled together, as they share the same costs of packaging and distribution. Thus the incremental cost to the firm (i.e. Microsoft!) for bundling together additional software products is very small (actually zero aside from any opportunity cost). Thus a suite of products may allow for greater market penetration into different software markets than if the software was sold separately. For software that is not currently used by the consumer, but is purchased through a bundled package, it works to lock-in the consumer once he/she decides to use that category of software. Thus bundled software can ensure strong market positions across multiple markets. While product bundling is a regular phenomena for software and related products, product unbundling may occur in the traditional content provider markets as microtransactions can provide payment options for smaller increments of the product. Thus rather than having to buy an entire CD (a bundling of different song titles, mostly of little relevance to each other) the consumer may be able to pay for a single song title, unbundled.

  • Who's Who in at Target
    Who’s Who in CUSTOMER TEAMS at Target As seen in WHO’S WHO IN CUSTOMER TEAMS AT TARGET ANALYSIS: Temporary Displays at Target We’ve noticed a marked increase in temporary merchandising displays utilized as part of Target’s seasonal campaigns, especially holiday and back-to-school, but even for occasions such as Father’s Day. The activity has been ramping up steadily for the last two years. This began as floorstands in apparel departments, generally merchandis- ing small giftables such as socks and accessories. More recently, they have also stocked such items as Axe body products, Keurig K-Cup packs, and Pepperidge Patrycja Malinowska Farm Goldfish crackers. Associate Director – Content Other departments – grocery, health and beauty immediately come to mind – P2PI.org increasingly utilize sidekicks, power wings (for convenience items such as tape or turkey oven bags) and floorstands (for small giftables). Glorifiers have also made their way onto shelves in the toy department. With few exceptions, the temporary displays are always customized for Target. If pushed to give a very non-scientific guesstimate, I’d say Target saw double the number of temporary displays for holiday 2014 than the previous year. The broader in-store landscape is similarly changing as Target employs a test-and-learn method to quickly try out a variety of new in-store display initiatives. The retailer is killing those that don’t work, while rolling out more successful programs. The initiatives it is keeping seem to be those that help stores tell more stories and provide more well-rounded “experiences.” Must-Know Terms Thought Starters n Cartwheel: A digital savings program launched n Target wants to stock exciting and innovative in 2013 with technological support from Face- merchandise, so provide exclusive product book that offers registered users hundreds of lines, SKUs or packaging – or promotions dan- in-store only discounts redeemable at checkout.

  • Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar
    Voyage #43 15th April 2010 Students’ Wall Magazine Dr. Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar also known as Babasaheb, was an Indian jurist, political lead- er, Buddhist activist, philosopher, thinker, an- thropologist, historian, orator, prolific writer, economist, scholar, editor, revolutionary and a revivalist for Buddhism in India Dr. B.R. Ambedkar was elected as the chairman of the drafting committee that was constituted by the Constituent Assembly to draft a constitution for the independent India; he was the first Law Minister of India; conferred Bharat Ratna in 1990. Dr. B.R. Ambedkar is viewed as messiah of dalits and downtrodden in India. He was the Dr. Bhimrao R. Ambedkar chairman of the drafting committee that was 14 April 1891 - 06 Dec1956 constituted by the Constituent Assembly in 1947 to draft a constitution for the independent India. He played a seminal role in the framing of the constitution. He was the fourteenth child of Ramji and Bhimabai Sakpal Ambavedkar. B.R. Ambedkar belonged to the "untouchable" Mahar Caste. His father and grandfather served in the British Army. In those days, the government ensured that all the army personnel and their children were educated and ran special schools for this purpose. This ensured good education for Bhimrao Ambedkar, which would have otherwise been denied to him by the virtue of his caste. Bhimrao Ambedkar experienced caste discrimination right from the child- hood. After his retirement, Bhimrao's father settled in Satara, Maharashtra. Bhimrao was enrolled in the local school. Here, he had to sit on the floor in one corner in the classroom and teachers would not touch his notebooks.
