Their creation, growth and longevity are critical to the success of the global economy. Although facing many of the same dayto-day management issues as publicly-owned companies, they must also manage many issues specific to their status. Sir Adrian Cadbury’s long and distinguished business career was built on his dual expertise in both corporate governance and family firms. A recognised authority on the former, he led the committee which laid the foundations for corporate governance in the UK. Thereafter, he played a crucial role in developing corporate governance standards in many other countries. Sir Adrian also has a first-hand understanding of family firms. His career began with his own family’s firm, the Cadbury company. Joining its board when it was still privately owned, he subsequently became its chairman. During his tenure, Cadbury was transformed into a public company and subsequently merged with Schweppes. His unique perspective of family firms and their governance is at the heart of this report.

...There’s no metaphysics on earth like chocolates’. When the Portuguese bard, Fernando Pessoa, uttered these words, sometime during the early 20th century, the Cadburys and Nestles of the world hadn’t even seen the dawn of the day in India! But, of late, these two major choco giants have been making Pessoa’s words felt in India. So, where Pessoa’s claim was restricted only to poetry or prose at the most, Cadbury and Nestle have proved in practical that chocolates are the most inevitable indulgence of all times. In the realm of advertising, the business of chocolate marketing stands at a figure of Rs.145 crore. And with that kind of money, the space becomes all the more interesting to watch out for, more so for the marketers. If we continue to let the numbers do the talking for sometime, we will get to know some dark chocolaty facts, like, Cadbury leads the Indian Chocolate market with a 70% share of the choco-pie, while Nestle occupies only 25% of the choco chunk. Interestingly, even with less than half of the former’s share, Nestle appears as the second leader in the entire arena and hence becomes the second pivotal player in the market. But that’s not the reason why they become this issue’s anointed marketers at war. In fact they have attained the status for being aggressive marketers of their respective chocolate variants for a consistently long duration without fail. An attack from one side has rarely gone unnoticed and not being retaliated with utmost valour from the counterpart...

...In: Business and Management Snapple BRAND MANAGEMENT Case No. 3 SNAPPLE: REVITALIZING A BRAND INTRODUCTION In the 1990s, Snapple Corporation was one of the leading “New Age” beverage brands when the category was just beginning to take off. With the combination of a unique product, package design, and quirky advertising, the company grew form a regional underground favorite toa nationally recognized brand. Snapple’s rise in the beverage industry was crowned in 1994, when the Quaker Oats Company purchased Snapple for $1.7 billion. Quaker expected to make Snapple a major player in the industry, as it had done with GAatorade. However, the company was unable to capitalize on the brand’s previous success. In 1997, Quaker sold Snapple to Triarc Beverage Group for $300 million. Triarc faced a number of challenges, including reversing the sales slide, revamping the distribution system, and creating new products that will enable growth. Most importantly, Triarc had to find a way to reconnect the brand with its consumers. Triarc successfully resurrected the Snapple brand, and in 2000 sold Snapple to Cadbury Schweppes for $1.45 billion. Cadbury Schweppes then faced the challenge of maintaining Snapple’s brand strength in an increasingly competitive beverage environment. THE EMERGENCE OF SNAPPLE The roots of Snapple Corporation date back to 1972 in Brooklyn, New York when brothers-in-law, Leonard Marsh and Hyman Golden, left their window-washing business and teamed up with...
