  5. 2. What factors have driven changes in the product range? Changes in the range are driven by a number of different factors. For example. microwaveable snacks take account of changing lifestyles, where people are looking for food that does not take long to prepare.

  6. Price 3. Why do you think consumers will pay more for Oven Chips than it would cost them less to buy the potatoes and oil to prepare chips themselves? McCain uses a range of pricing strategies associated with adding value for money. For example, 'extra-fill' packs can give the customer up to 30% extra free. This rewards regular buyers of a particular product. McCain may also offer its products at a special promotional price using price-marked packs to encourage people to try the product. Like, For example, customers may be prepared to pay more for a product that is unique or produced in an ethical and sustainable manner. This would place it as a premium brand above its competitors.

  7. Place 4. McCain sells its products to both wholesalers and retailers. Draw these distribution channels.

  8. 5. How does McCain reduce the environmental impact of transporting its products? McCain does not use its own vehicles to distribute products to its customers. Transportation is outsourced, which means another organisation carries out the deliveries. Products are delivered directly to retailers' central depots for onward distribution to their stores. Alternatively, they may go to wholesalers, who sell them on to other businesses such as restaurants. McCain takes the need for sustainability and reducing its impact on the environment into consideration in transporting its products. For example: • Where possible local farmers are used to reduce food miles. • Double-decker trucks are used, saving in the region of 2,000 lorry journeys a year. • The lorries have built-in solar panels which helps to provide additional power, for example, to help with the internal lifting mechanism.

  9. Promotion Above-the line : Above-the-line promotion is paid-for and includes traditional advertising routes such as television, radio and the press. These are good for carrying marketing messages to a large audience. However, it is less easy to measure the impact of these channels, for example, whether a TV advert has increased sales. Special displays or positioning in stores or advertising on supermarket trolleys are also examples of above-the-line promotional activity at McCain Foods.

  10. Below-the line: Below-the-line promotion can take many forms and is usually more under the control of the business. Typical examples include events or direct mail. McCain uses a combination of below-the-line activities including: • door-to-door leaflet drops or books of vouchers which give customers discounts over a period of time. These help to attract consumers and establish brand loyalty so the consumer buys the product again. • email newsletter for consumers. This creates a relationship with consumers, which is unusual for a B2B organisation. It not only allows McCain to communicate directly with and listen to consumers, it also enables the business to collect information, for example, about their lifestyles and product choices. This is used for feedback, research and promotions.

  11. Facts: It's all good' is a message that is embedded in all aspects of McCain foods marketing mix. Not only are the products designed to look and taste good, they're produced from good quality crops in a way that addresses people's concerns about issues such as health and the origins of their food. This helps to ensure that McCain remains a trusted brand. McCain also takes great care to minimize its impact on the environment. Its products are placed in the market in a way that reduces both food miles and carbon emissions. Promotion of the products focuses on the positive relationship between McCain food and a healthy diet and reinforces the importance of food and exercise in a healthy lifestyle.
