Customers will have different food choices to choose. However, quick access to the food service cause the company to compete against such companies as gas station, restaurants, grocery stores, and smoothie juice restaurants. Each of these businesses offers the service of prepared and ready-to-go foods and healthy choices. Each also allows convenience service. B's Mobile Food Truck must realize these businesses will be in constant competition against the mobile food truck. Mobile Food Truck Competitors Gas station food has earned a bad reputation over the last 20 years for various reasons. Usually the only things to be found are old hot dogs, stale donuts, slushes, and tightly wrapped tasteless sandwiches that have some sort of gross cheese that most people could not identify. Several gas stations have gotten into a different range of foods, trying to expand on better choices to boost the income. Many gas stations have either joined up with franchises such as McDonald’s, Subway or a pizza place to diversify their food attractions from the common place soggy sandwiches and sodas. “About 11 percent of Chevron Corp.'s 395 company-owned stations have food operations inside, many of them run by chains such as Subway or McDonald's, spokeswoman Lori Carlisle said.

...Problem Statement and Criteria Jamba Juice PROBLEM STATEMENT In the past, Jamba Juice Company had a primary growth strategy of increasing brand awareness through accelerated franchise development and penetration of existing markets. However, due to increased market saturation, Jamba Juice has had a difficult time competing with other premium quality blended-to-order fruit smoothies, squeezed-to-order juices, blended beverages, and healthy snack companies. From 2008 to 2010 Jamba Juice experienced a negative difference in total revenue of over $80,000. In addition, from 2007 to 2010, Jamba Juice had fallen off the list of one of the Top 50 Quick-Service and Fast-Casual Chains, to 57th in its market segment. This is directly related to a lack of promotions, lack of customer retention, and lack of seasonally appropriate menu items during the cooler seasons. As market penetration continues, solid growth strategies will be extremely important to remain competitive in the market. CRITERIA Criteria 1: Increase the percentage of sales during the cold season by 5% over a 3-year period. Criteria 2: A 5% improvement in customer retention rates over a 3-year period. Criteria 3: Increase market share by 2% over the next 3 years. ALTERNATIVES Alternative A: Develop a product that is desirable to consumers during the cold season. Alternative B: Enhance the customer loyalty program, offering more incentives to return. Alternative C: Create and expand...

Currently the company sells ready-to-drink tea, juice, juice drink, and mixer categories. The main issue is Dr Pepper Snapple sells four categories which are not among the top four. Therefore, they are missing out on a huge opportunity in the market. It would be in their best interest to penetrate the energy beverage market based on their current standing.

...QINGBO FENG SALES MANAGEMENT FRESH FRUIT STAND BACKGROUND Tulane students typically eat little fresh fruit, and after some research, I conclude it into several basic reasons. First, this is a food culture thing in American hospitality industry. Sometimes people simply don’t like fruits and vegetables, but often American diet is simply not fruit or veggie-centric. If you look at most menus posted in LBC in front of each food counter, you will notice that the entrees are primarily meat or grain based: “BEEF STEAK”, “ROSTED CHICKEN”, “PASTA DISH””SAUSAGE PIZZA””SANWADGE””STEAMED RICE””HAMBURGER”… Salad served in LBC tends to consist of some vegetables and fruit, but the amount of fruit is really limited. Usually, Fruit is only an after-thought in most dishes, or people tend to enjoy fruit during the break in afternoon. But existing cup-fruit is standardized and is not flexible for the preference of different fruits. it’s disappointing for some people because of the limited varieties there. Different people have different appetite for fruit. For example, Apple is known as the “king of fruit”, but I still keep on hearing some people’ complains about the bad taste of apple. Furthermore, fruits and vegetables also haven’t been extensively packaged in ready-to-eat forms. There are rows and rows of “open and eat” lunch meats, cheeses, cereals, granola bars, crackers, but just a handful of easy to consume, fresh fruit options. Most fruits require washing and peeling, perhaps chopping...

...Executive Summary This report was written to assess the company Red Bull and their energy drink Red Bull Energy Drink, in a manner in which the market/industry, environment, competitors, customers, and the brand were all analysed by using secondary research. A SWOT analysis was also conducted. Through this research and analysing, it was found that Red Bull is the dominating leader in the energy drink market and sells the most units of its product worldwide. However the company does have close competitors in Monster Energy Drink and Rock star Energy Drink. Although Red Bull has massive internal strengths in being leader in the market share and sponsorship of events, it also has weaknesses in lack of innovation and diversity. Their opportunities however, could be to extend the product line or team up with another company such as Smirnoff. The threats present to Red Bull are the unhealthy image associated to it by society and health critics and the rising competitors. Despite all these possible setbacks Red Bull continues to be the number one seller of energy drinks worldwide.
