4. Private Label Brand
a. Can generate higher profit margin
- benefits from weakening of national brand
- for more price conscious consumers
- well stocked, more prominent display
b. Distinct from “generics” or unbranded
- generics are unbranded, plainly packaged,
less expensive version of common products
- Private label packaging can be premium
products without direct competition; packaged
innovatively and attractively.
