Business Situation or SWOT Analysis



“SWOT analysis
 identifying internal strengths (S) and weaknesses (W) and also examining external opportunities (O) and threats (T)” (MKTG,22)
What is our products strengths?
It is small, portable, sweet treat that can compete with other major frozen treats.
The fact it is a frozen food is the major weakness for this product because frozen foods are known to take a major drop in sales. The major external opportunity I see is with females. This product could be sold as an everybody frozen treat however we can also seriously focus on the female demographic in the 19 to 45 age group as a late night snack you send your husband or boyfriend to go get for you at midnight. In my opinion the major threat for this product has to be the winter season however we could possibly switch it in the direction of a Halloween and Christmas themed version to boost sales for the winter quarters.

 “When examining external opportunities and threats, marketing managers must analyze aspects of the marketing environment.” (MKTG,22)
