A Study on New Product Introductions in the Japanese Soft-drink Industry ABSTRACT Imitation is observed in various contexts in the business world and numerous theories on imitation have been proposed. Incumbent theories on imitation are organized into two broad categories: information-based theories and rivalry-based theories. Information-based theories propose that firms follow others that are perceived as having superior information. Rivalry-based theories propose that firms imitate others to maintain competitive parity or limit rivalry. This study tries to distinguish among the theories by examining when and what kinds of firms are more likely to be followed by others in their new product introductions in the Japanese soft-drink industry. The empirical analysis shows that in brand-new product imitation, firms follow large competitors, while in product proliferation within established product categories, firms do not tend to follow large firms but mimic others of similar size. These contrasting results are reasonable, suggesting that two theories on imitation coexist and environmental uncertainty may be one of key distinguishing characteristics. In the case of brand-new products, firms face much uncertainty.

During SRT’s long history, it has passed through many modernization phases to improve the organization but although SRT and other authorities are working closely on railway reconstruction plans, there have been few changes in the SRT administration due to internal and external factors. Currently, the government has provisionally approved an investment of about 180 billion baht (US$5.8 billion) in SRT to develop rail by upgrading the existing infrastructure; these plans include the Track and Bridge Rehabilitation Project, Track Doubling Project, Electric Diesel Locomotive Purchasing Project, Installing Signalling and Level Crossing Project, etc. In addition, SRT has implemented a Restructuring Plan by establishing three business units: Traffic, Property, and Rolling Stock Maintenance, as well as one subsidiary to operate the Airport Rail Link Project.

  • 2015 Strategies for Core Brands in Japan
    №SBF0226(2015.1.22) Suntory Beverage & Food Limited 2015 Strategies for Core Brands in Japan [Review of 2014] In the overall Japanese soft drink industry in 2014, demand was estimated slightly lower than in the previous year, reflecting factors such as impact from unseasonable weather in summer and a delayed recovery in consumer sentiment after the consumption tax hike. Meanwhile, Suntory Beverage & Food Limited (SBF) posted a year-on-year growth in sales volume owing to the nurturing and strengthening of core brands and the cultivation of new demand. This reflects the SBF concept of proposing distinctive, high-quality products that satisfy the preferences and needs of consumers to deliver products that offer an abundant richness to the lives of consumers. Among its brands, the company is positioning Suntory Tennensui (Mineral Water) as a key brand of its business in Japan. SBF recorded a sales volume increase of 11% in contrast with the previous year, reflecting aggressive marketing activities and the development of new brand categories. The unsweetened carbonated water market was driven by brisk demand for Suntory Minami-Alps Tennensui Sparkling, Suntory Minami-Alps Tennensui Sparkling Lemon, and the flavored water market was propelled by favorable demand for Suntory Minami-Alps Tennensui & Asa-zumi Orange, which contains natural ingredients. The same held true for the BOSS brand. Despite estimates that sales in the canned coffee market would slightly decline from the previous year, sales volume of BOSS brand canned coffees rose 6% compared with a year earlier owing to aggressively marketing carried out throughout the year. In addition to solid sales of the four core products in the BOSS coffee range (BOSS Rainbow Mountain Blend, BOSS Zeitaku Bito, BOSS Muto Black, and BOSS Café au Lait), sales were very favorable for PREMIUM BOSS, which was released in September 2014.

  • Coffee and Tea in Beverages and Beyond
    [Beverages] Vol. 21 No. 3 March 2011 Coffee and Tea in Beverages and Beyond By Kimberly J. Decker, Contributing Editor Coffee and tea make rich topics for study, from the chemical constituents of their flavors to their cultivation and processing to debates over brewing techniques, levels of roast and the merits of loose leaves versus bags. One pleasant side effect of our infatuation with coffee and tea is the understanding we’ve gained of how to extend their pleasures beyond the cup. Coffee and tea flavor profiles complement so many foods that it’s almost unfair not to share them with everything from crème brûlée to barbecue sauce. Coffee complexity Coffee is a model of complexity, with the number of identified flavor constituents growing with each improvement in analytical techniques. “Currently, around 1,000 different substances have been identified in coffee," says Ben Kranen, principal flavorist, global flavour creation & technology group, Givaudan, Naarden, the Netherlands. “Using coffee-derived ingredients will give us many of those substances in one pour." While complexity doesn’t necessarily correlate with deliciousness, coffee’s chemical intricacy does set it apart from simpler flavors. “You’ve got amyl acetate in banana. You’ve got benzaldehyde in cherry. Even in something as complex as strawberry, there’s a known number of components that give you each characteristic strawberry flavor," says Paulette Lanzoff, technical director, Synergy, Wauconda, IL. Not so with coffee. “There’s so much more going on," she says. “There is no one particular flavor fingerprint." While this may make things more intriguing to the palate, it definitely makes designing coffee flavors “more challenging for the flavor chemist," she says.
