The application of mission in encouraging and motivating
employees is a key issue of concern that is based on the interest
of the company. Therefore, the mission statement of the
company is fully effectual in the implementation of company
goals.
1.2 Trends in the Industry
NAB industry is constantly changing based on the changes
in the needs of the customers. It is a practice that is focused on
the long-term orientation of the company goals and survival
within the industry. Apparently, the use of chocolate flavors is
new of the popular company trends that is popular in the
country. It is a practice that is deeply embedded in the changes
and preferences of the company (Perrott, 2015). The adherence
to the trends enables the company to come up with management
practices that are focused on the future survival of the company
within the competitive industry. Ideally, the adoption of the
flavor production creates a positive competitive position for the
company within the competitive industry that it operates within.
Therefore, the trends play an effectual role in the creation of the

within the market. Focusing on the brand positioning is a key
factor that the company is keen at capitalizing based on the
profitability involved in the adoption of the appropriate
company practices that reflects on the interest of the company.
1.4 Distribution Channels
The distribution channels that the company applies in this
specified scenario plays an important role in this respective
case. The company would focus on distributing the product to
the whole sellers. The wholesalerswould purchase the product t
a wholesale price. Indicating the retail price of the product is an
influential element that would be positively adopted. The
practice would create the appropriate channels of operations
that positively reflects the interest of the company(Perrott,
2015). Selling to the consumers directly is also a practice that
would enable the company to be fully effective in the
communication of its goals which is an elemental matter of
concern. Ideally, it is a practice that would be utilized in the
initial stages of the company which is an elemental practice that
needs to be positively utilized. 1.5 Risks
The company is likely to face risks while operating within
the market. One of the dominant risks that would affect the
company is the regulatory risk that the company would face. It
is a practice that is associated with the regulations that are
placed by the government. This is in terms of the pricing and
the use of ingredients such as sugar in the production of the
services which is an elemental matter of concern in this case
(Leonard, 2017). Financial risk is part of the hazard that the
company is likely to experience in this particular scenario. The
action lead to the proper communication of the company goals
and initiatives in a positive way that positively appeals to the
market. The other risks that the company would face is the
strategic risks. This is associated with the creation of strategies
that fails to be fully effective when implemented.2.0 SWOT
The strength of the company is focused on the internal
factors that make it to be fully effectual. In this case, the
company has an experienced management with superior
production technology. This enable the company to meet up its
goals by providing quality products that perfectly appeals to the
market (Prasad, Khanduja& Sharma, 2018). The weakness of the
company focuses on the external factors that creates
vulnerability for the company. Factor such as lack of market
awareness of the company product is a key weakness that
affects the company in a negative way. The opportunity is based
internal factors that the company has. The distribution of unique
flavors of soft drinks is an opportunity that the company would
address. The threats come from the external environment comes
from the new entrants to the market. 3.0 Marketing Plan3.1
Company Target Market
Uptown Swirl would target the health conscious of the
individuals with different ages. However the primary consumer
for the company juice are those falling between ages 18- 40 who
are in the location where the company would be set up. The
marketing research that was conducted within the community
showed that change of individual’s lifestyle has led to a higher
demand of quality products as this involves drinks and the fresh
juice. This makes targeted market easier as it’s a class of
discerning individuals who aims at maintaining healthy life
thorough their lives. The younger generation definitely would
need to use products that would make them to feel motivated
and also look good which becomes advantageous for the
company as it provides a wider variety of products. This
summarizes the demographics of Uptown Swirl to be young and
health conscious individual who are aged 18-40, sportsmen and
athletes and the individuals who mostly shop in healthy and
natural food stores (Nickel et al., 2014).The products of the
company are suitable to be consumed by the children, youths,
adults and the elderly, all genders groups, middle class,
socioeconomic class which is a growing population, white
American (which is the most populated environment), Hispanics
and the African American, millennial teenagers and those
people who are 25 mile radius of Raleigh NC. All this market
groups can use the products as the products favor all this groups
as the targeted market is more than 20 million. 3.2 Company
market competition
Within the non-alcoholic beverage industry, juice is one of the
most competitive product in the market. This trend is improving
gradually as there is a higher demand of this products as time
goes by due to an increase in the younger population and also
increased awareness of the health concerns by different
individuals. The concerns about health issues also increases the
demand for fresh juice as this is considered a perfect product
that has limited side effects. However the market competition
would be from the other established firms in the market among
them including Tropicana, Naked Juice and Pom wonderful as
all this companies have established their market strategies in the
market (Transparency Market Research,2016).
Tropicana for instance it’s an American multinational
corporation which majorly deals in producing fresh orange
juice. Uptown Swirl would be needed to set strategies that
would enable it to compete favorably in the market despite its
market share, robust operational and a financial position in the
non-alcoholic market sector. Naked juice on the other hand also
being major competitor of Uptown Swirl has a huge market
percentage in this industry as this company has been in
existence ever since which enabled it to attract more loyal
customers to itself. Pom wonderful also has an established
market base dealing with pomegranate juices which is rich in
the anti-detoxing properties. The company has diverse stores
which helps it in distribution to other markets which makes it
possible to cover a large market base (Nickel et al., 2014).
Despite the fact that all this companies have an established
market share as they have in the market for quite some time,
Uptown Swirl believes that they are going to compete
competitively as they have all they need to set up the
competition in the market which is currently owned by the big
firms in the market. The juice industry at the moment also has
many firms in the market which has led to different types of
products being produced in the market with an aim of attracting
more customers (Transparency Market Research, 2016).
Taking all this consideration in plan, there is need for Uptown
Swirl to set a different strategy that would help it to provide a
competing environment in the market such as producing an
enticing product in the market which still is not recognized well
in the market. This differentiation strategy would help the NAB
Company to differentiate itself from the other industries aiming
to target individuals who takes more consideration of their
health concerns as they would benefit more from the Uptown
Swirl juice (Nickel et al., 2014).
The company however is vulnerable to future barriers in the
market as there is free entry in the market, there are more
chances that the company would get more competition in the
market by some upcoming companies which may also decide to
produce similar products in themarket.
3.3 Clarification of the company’s Message
The message the company would wish to relay to its potential
consumers is that Uptown Juice is a natural juice that’s free
from any chemicals which is ready to drink and has been made
to perfectly care for the specification of the customer
preferences at a cheaper price. The marketing message is also
aimed at achieving the desired quality and as the company
would struggle to deliver its products which aims at achieving
the desired customers preferences. This message would help
achieve a desired goals which would help attracting more
customers as this message aims at persuading the consumers
that their product would achieve a desired taste that would be
preferred to that of the competitors The company slogan is
serving its customers with the nonalcoholic products to give
them energy into and refresh them using the given products
(Pom in the news, 2016).3.4 Marketing Vehicles for Uptown
Swirl
The company would do everything possible to make sure that
they can attain a desired goal of getting more market in the
community. For this case, the company would use aggressive
marketing vehicles which would help in creating awareness of
their brand. This strategy would help in raising awareness of the
brand as this would help in passing information to the potential
customers of Uptown Swirl new product in the market and also
making the right direction available to the targeted consumers.
The company would use retail like the supermarkets, in the sale
of their product there is needs to improve advertising channels
so as to send message to more consumers. For this case the
company would be needed to adopt social media as its primary
advertisement channel to send message to more customers
(Transparency Market Research, 2016).
Thus social media can be used to pass information to all the
consumers in marketing during the first 6 months. There is also
an option of providing the juice at quite cheaper price so as to
attract more customers and help in sampling the product.
Product visibility would be enabled through a word of mouth.
Marketing team would help in distributing the juice in more
market where they would also use free sample into enticing
more customers to consume the product (Nickel et al., 2014).4.0

al. 2016).
Uptown Swirl will offer top of the line benefits to their
employees. This includes full healthcare coverage, childcare,
assistant living, flexibility in hours, and a chance to further
education. The company will also partner with other companies
in order to get discounts for travels, hotels, electronics, and
more.
Since the company would also use water as one of their
resources, this may have an effect on the environment. Several
approaches would be implemented to avoid these effects such as
incorporating environmentally friendly products in packaging.
The firm will also try to invent a process that can convert waste
products into energy and improve the efficiencies in terms of
fuel and water in using developed technologies (Gharibzahedi
and Jafari, 2017).
The company products have positive health benefits as the
ingredients used as not harmful to health. The products would
are aimed and targeted to the health-conscious individual. There
are little effects associated with the product except for the fact
that some of the products that have sugar may limit
consumption for some of the consumers (McWilliams, 2015).

Indicating the retail price of the product is an influential element that would be positively adopted. The practice would create the appropriate channels of operations that positively reflects the interest of the company(Perrott, 2015). Selling to the consumers directly is also a practice that would enable the company to be fully effective in the communication of its goals which is an elemental matter of concern. Ideally, it is a practice that would be utilized in the initial stages of the company which is an elemental practice that needs to be positively utilized. 1.5 Risks The company is likely to face risks while operating within the market. One of the dominant risks that would affect the company is the regulatory risk that the company would face. It is a practice that is associated with the regulations that are placed by the government. This is in terms of the pricing and the use of ingredients such as sugar in the production of the services which is an elemental matter of concern in this case
  • 5. (Leonard, 2017). Financial risk is part of the hazard that the company is likely to experience in this particular scenario.

In this case, the company has an experienced management with superior production technology. This enable the company to meet up its goals by providing quality products that perfectly appeals to the market (Prasad, Khanduja& Sharma, 2018). The weakness of the company focuses on the external factors that creates vulnerability for the company.

The distribution of unique flavors of soft drinks is an opportunity that the company would address. The threats come from the external environment comes from the new entrants to the market. 3.0 Marketing Plan3.1 Company Target Market Uptown Swirl would target the health conscious of the individuals with different ages. However the primary consumer for the company juice are those falling between ages 18- 40 who are in the location where the company would be set up. The marketing research that was conducted within the community showed that change of individual’s lifestyle has led to a higher demand of quality products as this involves drinks and the fresh juice. This makes targeted market easier as it’s a class of discerning individuals who aims at maintaining healthy life thorough their lives.

The concerns about health issues also increases the demand for fresh juice as this is considered a perfect product that has limited side effects. However the market competition would be from the other established firms in the market among them including Tropicana, Naked Juice and Pom wonderful as all this companies have established their market strategies in the market (Transparency Market Research,2016). Tropicana for instance it’s an American multinational corporation which majorly deals in producing fresh orange juice. Uptown Swirl would be needed to set strategies that would enable it to compete favorably in the market despite its market share, robust operational and a financial position in the non-alcoholic market sector. Naked juice on the other hand also being major competitor of Uptown Swirl has a huge market percentage in this industry as this company has been in existence ever since which enabled it to attract more loyal customers to itself.

The juice industry at the moment also has many firms in the market which has led to different types of products being produced in the market with an aim of attracting more customers (Transparency Market Research, 2016).

This differentiation strategy would help the NAB Company to differentiate itself from the other industries aiming to target individuals who takes more consideration of their health concerns as they would benefit more from the Uptown Swirl juice (Nickel et al., 2014). The company however is vulnerable to future barriers in the market as there is free entry in the market, there are more chances that the company would get more competition in the market by some upcoming companies which may also decide to produce similar products in themarket. 3.3 Clarification of the company’s Message The message the company would wish to relay to its potential consumers is that Uptown Juice is a natural juice that’s free from any chemicals which is ready to drink and has been made to perfectly care for the specification of the customer preferences at a cheaper price.
