restrictions as to which organisation you can choose. However, before you decide on
your chosen organisation, undertake some research to make sure that there is enough
information available to you. The organisation can be from anywhere around the
world. However, the organisation you pick must be a REAL, tangible organisation
and one that is currently in business.

5. A General Guide to Writing Assignments
Assignments are a key component of the assessment of your studies but many
assignments that contain good thoughts and ideas are ruined (and get less marks) because
of basic preparation and writing errors. The following are some tips on the mechanics of
writing assignments. These should always be read in conjunction with the student
handbook and other instructions given by your lecturers.
If you are having problems ASK FOR HELP early rather than the day before an
assignment is due.
Layout:
For ease of handling for the marker, follow these instructions:
The front cover should contain the module name, who the essay is for, the title and
your student number.
Make sure the pages in your assignment are numbered
Use 1.5 or double spacing, left justification and single sided.
Your margins should usually be at least 2.5 cm all round.
Use at least a 12 pt font that can be easily read (Arial or times are usual).
Spell checks your work and proof-read for editing and grammar mistakes.
Some sentence constructions frequently cause problems. These problems are discussed
below:
a) Capitalisation
There is a tendency to use capital letters when they are not required. Only use capitals at
the start of a sentence or for the names of people and organisations.
E.g. ...the Civil Rights Movement… becomes ...the civil rights movement....
b) Spacing
As a rule, all items of punctuation should have one space after them, except punctuation
that ends sentences (for example full stops). These items of punctuation have two spaces
after them.
Note that this spacing rules do not apply to brackets
The two spaces after full stops also apply in referencing after the author’s initials.
c) Exclamation marks (!)
The use of exclamation marks in academic writing is very rare, but when you do use
them make sure that you only use one - students often use double exclamation marks at
the end of a sentence to indicate intensity but this is unnecessary
d) Colons (:)
Colons are often used to introduce a quote, a list of items, or to separate clauses in a
sentence when the second enlarges or explains the first. Remember that colons never end
a sentence so you should not capitalise the next word and that you should not put a space
between the colon and the word ahead of it.
6. e) Apostrophes (’)
Apostrophes can be used in two ways - as a contraction where part of a word is left out
or where two words run together to form one word - or to denote possession.
f) As a contraction
It is very rare to use contractions in academic writing, please do not use them.
E.g.
It should be do not, not don’t.
It should be cannot, not can’t
g) Informal language
Please do not use informal language or slang, using the correct words will give your
work a level of professionalism
E.g. Children should never be classed as kids
h) Quoting material
Your work should not be full of direct quotes, this demonstrates either a lack of
understanding, a rushed assessment or a lazy approach to academic writing. Use
direct quotes sparingly and paraphrase instead.

12. 1. Introduction to Cadbury company
Cadbury was first founded in 1824 by John Cadbury as a grocery selling many things including
cocoa and drinking chocolate in Birmingham, UK. The grocery gradually expanded its variety of
chocolate offerings and only became the chocolate manufacturer in 1866 with the launch of
Cadbury Cocoa Essence, the first unadulterated cocoa brand in UK at that time. In response to
the rivalry from Swiss chocolate manufacturers, Cadbury has used its innovative chocolate
processing technique to launch new milk chocolate bars under the brand name “Cadbury Dairy
Milk” since 1905 which contains more milk than any chocolate bars of competitors in the Britain
market. The Cadbury Dairy Milk which is made from fresh milk sourced in the UK and fair trade
cocoa beans and designed in form of unwrapped blocks that can be broken into small pieces has
received instant success right from its first launch and become the flagship product range of
Cadbury on global market (Cadbury website, n.d). Particularly in UK, Cadbury Daily Milk has
been honored as the best-selling milk chocolate brand for years and possessed a great deal of
fans (Food Manufacture UK, 2014). Upon nearly 200 years of development and success,
Cadbury has become the world’s leading chocolate confectionary company with a wide variety
of chocolate offerings sold in over 40 countries over the world in which U.K, Australia, India
and China are the four biggest country markets. With regard of design, Cadbury caters chocolate
bars, chocolate eggs for Easter, chocolate crunchy, candies, bites and buttons in bags and boxes
as well as chocolate drinks. Besides, Cadbury offers different tastes such as milk chocolate, fruit,
milk with oreo, caramel, oat crunch, etc.. Four major markets of Cadbury Dairy Milk include
U.K., Australia, India and China. The company has been taken over by Mondelez International
which is a giant American multinational corporation specializing in confectionery, food, and
beverage since 2010. (Cadbury website, n.d).
2. Marketing environment
Macro environment factors
Obesity has been increasingly concerned among both Britain citizens and governments as the
main cause of severe health issues in the country (Mintel, 2015). So as to improve public health,
UK government has established a governmental body named Publish Heath Responsibility Deal
which has been implementing many aggressive legal actions and launching appealing social
campaigns that aim to either enforce and encourage businesses to give hands for combating
2
13. obesity in the society. Cadbury’s competitors such as Mars and Nestle have also actively opted in
these campaigns as a way to show their corporate social responsibly. These social campaigns
also direct Britain customers towards healthy eating. Especially, the ‘Healthy lives, healthy
people’ campaign launched by the UK Chartered Institute of Environmental Health directly
alerts British citizens about the downside of confectionery products which contain high levels of
sugar that is the main cause of obesity and severe related diseases (Public Health England, 2014).
In addition, ‘fat tax’ which is imposed on the level of sugar in confectionary products is highly
likely to be passed in very near future. This policy is expected to enforce confectionary
companies to reformulate their ingredients towards healthier way (Keynote, 2015). Moreover,
the latest Food and Drink labeling regulation stipulates that confectionary companies have
obligations to present trustworthy information about the amount of fat, salt, sugar and calories on
the packages together with suitable and healthy intake references (Keynote, 2015). Besides,
empirical studies have revealed that British customers are getting more and more health
conscious. According to a survey conducted by Healthy Lifestyles UK in 2015, about 34% of
people in the UK notice carefully the nutritional information provided on products’ packages
when they are considering and comparing different brands (Public Health England, 2014). In
addition, more and more Britain customers are following healthy eating trends (Mintel, 2015).
Healthy eating is not only a way to combat obesity and maintain good health but also a type of a
trending lifestyle with many fad diets such as the 5:2 Diet, the Alkaline Diet and the M-Plan
Diet, etc. The common features of all healthy eating diets are reducing fat and sugar in daily
meals while improving intakes of fibers and vitamins and fibers so as to lose weight and keep fit.
Moreover, the number of weight loss surgery cases has dropped significantly in the UK, instead,
healthy eating has become even more popular as a safe method for natural weight loss (Mintel,
2014). As a chocolate confectionary company, Cadbury has faced major threats from all of above
macro environment factors. On the other view, healthy eating trend can be an opportunity for
Cadbury if this company has an appropriate marketing strategy to adapt this market trend
(Mintel, 2016)
Microenvironment factors
According to Mintel (2016), UK chocolate market has been featured by relatively flat volume
sales with very high competition from key players including Mars and Nestle and Ferrero.
Besides, buying chocolate as a treat for oneself and gifting are still two most important reasons
3
14. for purchasing chocolates. With regards to customers’ trends, more emphasis can be put on a
daily treat by enjoying smaller amounts of more premium chocolate products as a part of a
balanced diet. As a result, increasing demand for lighter or smaller, healthier and more premium
chocolate offerings creates great opportunities for Cadbury
In response to healthy eating trends, both Mars and Nestle have implemented product
modification towards healthier by reformulating ingredients to lower fat and raise fiber contains
as well as redesigning products with smaller package or thinner that are positioned as “light” and
“diet”.
3. Ansoff’s matrix
The Ansoff Matrix, also known as Ansoff Box is a marketing analysis technique that is used by
marketers to identify and pursue growth opportunities as well as enable companies to develop
suitable strategies so as to reap benefits from such opportunities by considering suggested
implications for business growth which are marketing penetration (i.e. marketing existing
products more effectively to existing customers); market development (i.e. marketing existing
products to new markets); product development (i.e. launching new products to appeal existing
customers) and diversification (i.e. launching new products to new markets) (Ansoff, 1957)
Figure 1: Ansoff Matrix
4
15. In this case, Product Development strategy is recommended to Cadbury upon the findings from
the marketing environment analysis for some reasons. Firstly, since healthy eating trend has
become a new trend across different customer segments and other major competitors are
modifying their products in response to this trend, Cadbury should obviously adapt it and make
healthy eating an opportunity rather than a threat. Besides, customer demand has also changed
towards a lighter, smaller, healthier and more luxury chocolate as a treat to themselves that is
also an opportunity to push Cadbury towards Product Development strategy.
Specifically,so as to defend the leadership in UK chocolate market, increase sales and market
share by adapting market trends toward healthy eating and smaller but more premium chocolate
offerings, Mondelez ‘s R & D team should develop a new product named Cadbury Matcha Tea
Chocolate in which organic Japanese Matcha Tea which is famous for multiple benefits for
health is matched with traditional British fresh milk and free trade cacao beans. Cadbury Matcha
Tea Chocolate which contains less fat and less sugar while more vitamins, more fibers and
especially high in antioxidants will be launched to Cadbury’s existing market including both
teenagers and adults aged from 16 to 45 years old who are increasingly health conscious
4. Segmentation, Targeting and Positioning analysis for the proposed growth
5
16. The market for Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate is segmented based on demographic,
psychographic and behavioristic factors. Upon each segment, target customers will be selected as
follows:
- Demographic factors: teenagers and adults aged from 16 to 45, both male and female
- Psychographic factors: People who are health conscious, interested in healthy eating diets
- Behavioristic factors: People who want to eat chocolate as a treat to themselves but still
want to either keep fit or lose weight or maintain a good health condition with a balanced
diet.
Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate aims to be positioned in the customers’ minds as the premium
chocolate offerings which is the healthiest chocolate product in the market. The following
perceptual map presents the desired position of Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate in customers’
minds upon two criteria which are price and healthiness over chocolate brands of three other key
competitors including Mars, Ferrero and Nestle in which Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate is
perceived as the most expensive and also the healthiest chocolate.

7
18. Place
Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate will be distributed through current distribution channels of
Cadbury in UK including groceries, convenience stores, supermarkets, hypermarkets, canteens in
working buildings, schools and universities, automatic selling machines throughout the UK,
hotels and online retailers.
Promotion
Since the Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate is a totally new product in the market, advertising and
sales promotion are chosen as two main promotional strategies in which advertising helps build
brand awareness about the new product and sales promotion helps trigger initial sales.
Advertising:
- TV commercials and Youtube advertisements will be designed so as to draw customer
attention and raise their awareness about how healthy and delicious the new product is
- Such TV commercials and Youtube videos will be then shared on social networks such as
Facebook, Twitter and Istagram
- Point of sales advertising: Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate will be sold right at the check-
out in supermarkets, groceries, convenience stores and hypermarkets with small
billboards featuring how the new product is healthy and delicious when it combines tea
and chocolate
Sales promotion:
Some limited free trials will be given freely in some universities, high schools and working
buildings so as to build customer awareness as well as collect primary data for test marketing at
the beginning phase of the new product development so that Cadbury can understand how
customers react to the new product and what should be modified to make the product better sell.
Some discounts are also offered but within a limited time frame
Advertisements of Cadbury Matcha Tea Chocolate will be designed upon the AIDA model:
- To get target customers’ attention: celebrity endorsement with famous stars who has
inspired people by their perfect bodies and eating diets will be featured
8
19. - To create customers’ interest: since relevance can decide whether customers are
interested in the products advertised (Sahar, G.; Seyed Yahyah, D. & Kambiz, S., 2012),
the advertising message will be “Indulge yourself in a healthier way” which are relevant
to target customers who are healthy conscious but still love chocolate
- To make customers desire to have it, the advertisements will feature the unique selling
points of the products in terms of its healthy and unique ingredients as well as announce
the sales promotion program
- To trigger urgent buying actions, discounts are only offered in limited time period and
with limited amount
