Q1,How has Natureview succeeded


in the natural foods channel?
Unique smooth, creamy texture & flavor owing to family recipe.
Absence of artificial sweeteners & use of non rGBH treated milk gave a Natureview
advantage over other Major brands.
Such process & ingredients led to Natureview products having 50 days shelf life against
30 days industry standard.
Captured Organic & natural segment which was under served by traditional retail
channels.
By servicing a specialized customer, carved out a niche for itself.
Use of a broker against traditional distribution channel enabled Natureview in capturing
25% of the natural food market. The same system also helped in increase ales for its 8
ounce and 32 ounce products.
Their brokers had direct relationship with the retailers. Hence Natureview didnt deal with
retailers directly but through brokers.

Action Plan | Implementation Process


Recommendation : Option 1 Expand into supermarket space with 8oz SKU

A Trend is shown towards favorable financial position


When compared with national, regional targting is easy to implement
Increased visibility of products due to higher slotting fees
Relinquishing first movers advantage of moving into the supermarket channel has huge
opportunity cost

Implementation Adjustments
Brand: Do not loose brand positioning and equity- premium tag of product
Channel Partner: Provide beneficial schemes to natural food retailers to help them
better compete with supermarkets.
Marketing mix: 4Ps - 8oz SKU, $0.78, Located in-store with competitor brands, In-store
promotions
Sales: Implementing latest technology advancements to track sales trends and
developments in the market
