I learnt about the various channels available in the distribution landscape and how the shelf space offered by an established retailer has become an important commodity to compete for (Arnese et al., 2014). It is for this reason, our proposal to the distilleries was to initially target the HoReCa i.e. 120K bars, pubs, restaurants & hotels in the UK which are responsible for more than 35% on-trade consumption in the UK (IAS, 2017). However, the illustration of this piece of information could have been improved in the group

TRADER JOE’S – INDUVIDUAL ASSIGNMENT 1 Part 1 – Introduction What Joe Coulombe did was opening an ordinary supermarket into the industry but the strategies he took were separating the Trader Joe’s from its rivals. What he did was to offer products targeting sophisticated costumers who were searching for good bargains. The offerings of Trader Joe’s were so unique which are not found at rival shelfs. Another crucial decision he made was to take advantage of recent environmental movements such as the rising trend of costumers searching organic foods. The company also decided on selling private labelled products with lower prices than other brands of the same product.
Diversification in raw material suppliers insures that Grandma’s will not be dependent on a single source. Grandma’s utilizes five bonded public warehouses that specialize in food and confectionery storage, selection based on: proximity to customers, ability to provide prompt customer service and efficient and economic delivery. Grandma’s takes the stress of consistency in supplying due to environmental factors off the suppliers through consciously choosing to diversify their supplier network. Grandma’s does not limit the sales of similar products produced by their manufacturer suppliers entirely, these suppliers can still sell to any nation other than the USA. This allows these manufacturer supplies leeway to make additional capital off of excess products produced.

Jamba Juice is a smoothie and juice café that is known for their healthy alternatives to sugar packed meals and drinks. When they opened the doors to their first store in 1990 under the name of Juice Club, they were the only free standing healthy juice and smoothie café, similar to what was offered only in small, local health food stores at the time. In 2008 James D. White was hired as the new CEO of Jamba Juice.

Abstract The Wilkerson Company started facing declination in profits due to the price cutting on their pumps.

In all Trader Joe’s is one of the leading super markets in the U.S., but after careful analysis of their operations I believe there are opportunities that are currently being ignored by the company. The company doesn’t need to act on all the recommendations that I made, however it would be in their best interest to do so. Not only would the company grow at a faster pace, but it will make strides in areas that haven’t been occupied before. Despite these current pitfalls, Trader Joe’s still is a popular option in their

Leading up to 2012, Diamond Food's had been a rising superstar on Wall Street. The company transformed itself from a sleepy cooperative nut distributor to a 21st century snack power house. While some of that transformation was done organically through better marketing and margin expansion, most of the company's transformation was done through acquisitions. Mr. Mendes, the CEO of Diamond, believed that better prospects lie outside the wholesale industry and refocused the company on the providing relatively healthy snack options at grocery stores. In the broad sense Diamond had been doing well up until 2011, but it would not last.
Overall: Jamba Juice’s strong brand and competencies in creating quality products make opportunities for expansion (i.e. diversification, horizontal integration) very attractive. However, their inability to keep costs down and their lack of quality marketing make the threats of price wars or increased product substitution increasingly
