Task 4 – P5, M3
Conor Cunningham
,Introduction
The Research and Development department of Nutri-Foods Ltd has recently developed
cereal bar which will be manufactured and sold by the company alongside its existing r
of nutritional foods.
The cereal bar will be produced using ‘healthy’ ingredients that provide energy to
consumers while being relatively low-calorie. Initially the cereal bars will be sold as a si
item only.
The cereal bar will be launched in Northern Ireland only, making use of the company’s
existing distribution channels – convenience stores and major supermarkets; the cerea
will also be supplied to wholesalers so that coffee shops and restaurants will have acce
to supplies. It is hoped that the cereal bar will become a standard item for sale in vendi
machines.
The budget for the campaign should not exceed £10,000.
