Food Waste
Natural Resources Defense Council (NRDC)
reported
Americans trash 40% of food supply every year,
valued at about $165 billion
The average American family of four ends up throwing
away an equivalent of up to $2,275 annually in food
Food waste is the single largest component of solid
waste in US landfills
A 15% reduction in losses in the US food supply
would save enough food to feed 25 million
Implementation Steps

2. PM & Tandem will donate bagels to local
schools, shelters, & other non-profits
3. PM & Tandem will promote the new campaign
through social media - “A Bagel On Every Table”

campaign
Social Media Campaign

Twitter, or Instagram with the handle

get discounted bagel & spread

  • #9 Less concerned with cost, this business model focuses on creating value for their products and services.

  • #15 Keely starts People’s Market are millennials who are part of the LOHAS category, which stands for Lifestyles of Health and Sustainability (LOHAS). Millennials specifically are much more information hungry and aware of global issues than other generations. Specifically, millennials are more conscious about what items they purchase and tend to purchase more environmentally friendly products.
  • #17 As we saw earlier from the sign PM put up about Coca Cola, they do a good job at sourcing and selling quality products to their customers that are also good for the areas where the products are made. They also mostly buy local, which cuts down on carbon emissions They also have a “bring your own mug” policy, which means they allow their customers to bring in their own mugs to fill them up with coffee for a reduced price Lastly, they strive to employ people of all different backgrounds, cultures and ethnicities in order to create a diverse workplace
  • #18 PM doesn’t have any local initiatives to help the local community in any way, so we decided to focus on this aspect.
  • #19 Since PM sells products, they end up throwing away a lot of products, creating a lot of food waste. The Natural Resources Defense Council reported that americans throw away 40% of the food supply each year, which is valued at $165 billion. Food waste is the largest component of solid waste in the US The reduction of food waste by 15% could feed 25 million americans annually
  • #20 Reconceiving new markets and products Making the value chain more productive We are giving students and the local community a lower price for food, which will attract more people, and in return, PM will get free advertising PM doesn’t have a marketing budget, so they need this
  • #21 The first step in order to implement this plan would be to partner with Tandem Bagel They will then need to come up with a system to donate the bagels to local schools, shelters and other non-profits Next, they will need to promote their campaign through social media. We came up with the idea of calling the campaign, “A Bagel On Every Table” Lastly, PM & Tandem will need to offer a discounted bagel and spread to every customer who participates in the social media
  • #22 So in order for the customers to participate in the campaign, they must take a picture of their bagel, with the appropriate branded deli paper, and post the pic to either FB, Twitter, or Instagram. In order for the customer to get a discount, they must show their social media post to the cashier at their next check out
  • #23 The picture on the left shows the kind of promotion that Tandem and PM will be in charge of posting in order to promote the campaign And the pic on the right shows what the customers will post on their social media platforms. They will have to make sure to have the appropriate branded deli paper
