There was nothing new about tea bags, it was in a coffee shop where Ben came up with an idea that would change his families lives, to put sugar in little bags and sell them individually. Ben took his invention, unpatented, to a sugar company, which apparently stole it, rendering him forever suspicious. The company actually took off when Ben and Uncle Marvelous came up with the idea for Sweet'N Low.

If it harnesses this brand image, it could experience significant success and growth by adopting a related diversification strategy and creating a new product line of warm nutritional drinks such as tea, chai, or herbal coffee. This strategy would be appropriate given the noticeably unattractive nature of the smoothie market. Knowledge of food-creation processes, relationships with suppliers, and excited, friendly employees would be key success factors in this strategy.

Marketing would need to work with management to assess potential target markets and determine if these warm beverages are more suitable for current customers or new customers. These new products would likely be high-margin and fairly expensive, so Marketing would need to create an advertising campaign that makes theses new products attractive despite their price. Operations would need to determine which suppliers to partner with in this new endeavor and negotiate for long-term contracts in order to alleviate the concern of increasing materials costs. As these new products catch on, Operations should also implement a mass customization system which would give consumers flexibility in choosing and altering their products. Finance would need to need to obtain financing for these new…

For decades The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea Company (A&P) had dominated the US food and grocery market. However, with its size had come increasing managerial inefficiencies and an inability to respond to demands of changing market. A very crucial error was made in the 1950’s when A&P failed to follow customers in their move to suburbs. The result, which plagued the supermarket chain into the 1980’s , was a large number of small and inefficient stores serving declining urban neighbourhoods.…
