This case study analyzes options for expanding the organic yogurt company Natureview. It examines entering the supermarket channel through 8-oz cups (Option 1) or 32-oz cups (Option 2), or expanding in the natural foods channel through children's multipacks (Option 3). Option 1 has the highest potential revenue but also highest costs. Option 2 has lower costs but smaller size may limit growth. Option 3 has strong existing relationships and high margins in the natural foods channel. The recommendations are that Option 1 is financially attractive if distributed regionally initially to implement more easily and gain first mover advantage, despite high slotting fees.
