5. INTRODUCTION
The globalized world where we live has changed the eating habits of the people, the time that
we have at the actuality is short compared to with years ago, and the pace of life is more
accelerating. The time to perform various daily activities is very short; therefore it is important
to find a balance for these changes to be coupled to our lives, this change has resulted in a
change in consumption patterns for all the people around the word.
One of the most profitable businesses is the fast food. In recent years the demand of fast food
has grown, this effect is reflected in the great number of businesses that have sprung up
around the world. In our country, those restaurants are expanding the number of stores in the
major cities such as Guayaquil and Quito. In Ecuador there are many fast food restaurants that
have arisen in recent years an example of this is Sweet & Coffee.
Businesses that succeed are those who constantly reinvent themselves and change their
characteristics to be more competitive and not lose market share; for this reason we need to
consider whether to introduce a line of cakes based on traditional ingredients such as
pumpkins, corn, breadfruits and carrots. We will do our project with a company that is already
established in the market such as Sweet & Coffee, which was founded in 1997 as the first
coffee shop specialized in gourmet coffee and sweets in Ecuador. Sweet & Coffee is a company
that is successful in the Ecuadorian market; this is due to the quality of their product and good
service they provide to their customers.
It is becoming more common that consumers require companies to make constant changes in
products or services they offer to maintain their loyalty to the company. To introduce a new
line of cakes in this company could be a great strategy for Sweet & Coffee for this reason we
want to do a project in which we have to do a market study of a business that is in constant
growth how is the enterprises of fast food.

RESEARCH METHOD
DESCRIPTION OF THE METHOD
The Marketing Research helps to have strategies in the market for determining the best
techniques for specifics goals. It is a good way to design the new target market in the
enterprise. We want to introduce the new line in Sweet & Coffee based on traditional
ingredients such as pumpkins, breadfruits, carrots and corn.
The foremost objective is determining the methods and the techniques that we need to use. In
the exploratory research we will perform the techniques such as the blind test, focus group
and the observation about the company. The descriptive research method to be used is the
surveys obtaining additional information.
The first step is to collect information, it is really important to know how to obtain the
information that we want for market research. We will determine which are the products
consumed regularly by the Sweet & Coffee customers, we also want to know which would be
their preferred cake.
The observation techniques will help us to do a good job in our Marketing Research. We are
going to collect data to know the behavior and the preferences of the costumers. It will also
identify new marketing opportunities with the new line of traditional cakes of Ecuador. These
techniques are necessary to explain and determine the results about the marketing research.
We need to identify the information effectively and to achieve our objectives we will realize
some techniques such as focus groups, surveys and observation to establish the information
we want to analyze, this is the most important step to do our project. Actually the most
important step is to establish the marketing problem, not this one. Each method will provide
different information, but all conclusions that we get with each technique will be essential to
obtain the information we need.

9. ABOUT SWEET AND COFFEE
Sweet & Coffee ® was founded in 1997 as the first coffee shop specializing in Coffee and
Sweets Gourmet Ecuador. Sweet & Coffee ® features premium coffee for the perfect area
of Ecuador, a team first, candy gourmet and of course determined to be a pride to
Ecuadorians. By combining these resources are the favorite cafe of Ecuadorians and for all who
try it first.
We are pleased to have created a family business where customers are proud of our success
transparent and where the team work of Sweet & Coffee ® has cultivated a fun work
environment demanding but very rewarding because of the growing and learning
opportunities offered. Our enthusiasm for product quality, customer service and creating
positive impacts in communities it’s our clue to beyond all limits.
For over 10 years we have had the pleasure to educate, entertain, serve and of course
celebrate each of our traditions with thousands of our customers who visit us daily in our
stores, website and social networks.
History about the company
When Soledad Hanna and Richard Peet met while they were working in the People's Bank
building, located at the corner of Luque and Pedro Carbo, they did not expect that years later,
in the same place, would be located one of 29 locals of Sweet and Coffee they have in
Guayaquil.
They were not thinking about a chain, it was just a good idea they had since Soledad prepared
desserts to Richard when they were dating. They married and decided to start Sweet and
Coffee after a month, but the idea was so good that, after 13 years of its creation, it is ready to
transcend borders.
To mount the business, they used their own capital. He owned some clubs that hit in the 90s
until one day he said "or the clubs or marriage", then they took so seriously that union which
were not only a family of three children, but also a business group of three businesses: Sweet
& Coffee, the River Park playground and Mambo Juice, a chain of juice in Guayaquil.
Sweet & Coffee is a place that offers desserts and coffee which gives equal importance to both
products. The idea required a $ 50,000 initial investment and for its entire career they have
used their own funds, they have never needed a loan to grow because Richard and Soledad
chose to expand their cautious way, just as they prepare their delicious food: with low heat.
Therefore, although the business had a lot of customers from the beginning and generated
good profits, the organization and structure of the company were adapting their size. Just two
years after they created Sweet and Coffee, Peet family began to open their own kitchens and
after five years, they organized their employees into 10 departments and built one kitchen
where all products were cooked, in order to make a quality control. Other improvements were
buying quality coffee growers from Loja, and the creation of a training center for its
employees, the Coffee University, located in River Park facility, where the barmen learn about
customer service and preparation of products.
[8]

10. Philosophy
Sweet & Coffee began as a small company that made coffee and desserts. The values of Sweet
& Coffee are reflected in the operational and administrative team of the company. We put our
heart and desire in everything we do and the following principles are our foundation for
further growth and achieve our goals:
• Our client is the most important
From the beginning we have strived to provide the best possible experience in our
stores. We are always mindful that our actions are to serve you and want you to enjoy
every moment you share with us the most. If necessary, we get out of the routine to

• Quality is better than quantity
Sweet & Coffee ® attaches great importance to the small details that create a positive
impact in your life. We appreciate that you chose as your favorite cafeteria and we

Our founders created Sweet & Coffee ® with the idea that work should be challenging,
and challenges should be fun. The Sweet & Coffee ®team consists of energetic people
with creative approaches to work, leisure and life itself. Our work environment is fun
and challenging and we value diversity.
• Good is not good enough
For us to be excellent is only the beginning and not the ultimate goal. We set our goals
pretty high because that way we know more we will strive to achieve and thus go
further than we expected. Aim to undertake innovation in the creation of new cafes
and the best tasting sweet and always top quality and you can not only satisfy alltastes

[9]

footprint.
[10]

12. ABOUT THE COMPETITION
We have identified three different types of competitors:
Frist; the brand competition, this is competition with companies offering the same products; in
this case one of the biggest competitors of Sweet and Coffee is Juan Valdez Café, this cafe
offers the same products that Sweet and Coffee, such as: variety of coffee, milkshakes, sweet,
salt products, chocolates, among others. We can also include the location as one strong point
to considers, because Juan Valdez has started to locate their cafes at the same places, or near
that Sweet and Coffee does. La Española is other competitor of Sweet and Coffee but the
people considerate La Española as a bakery. And others competitors such as: Cafetería Casa
Tosi, McCafé (McDonald’s), among others; but most people don't know these places as point
of sale of coffee because they are well-known and specialized in selling food.
The second, is the substitute products; integrated by the companies that meet the same need,
in this case can be all the shops that generally offer coffee or/and sweets, the sweet shops
such as: Bombon’s, Dolupa, Dolche Incontro, etc. These companies are specialized in sweets,
cakes and others. Although they have a different approach,meet the same needs.
The third is the general competition; each company competes with others, it means that the
consumer's money is limited, therefore costumer have to choose adequately how it will
distributed.
ABOUT THE PRODUCTS
All our products were prepared following old recipes provided by one of our grandmother’s
member of our team. Those recipes are well-known between general populations. Some of the
ingredients are season products, something that could be an advantage and disadvantage at
the same time if we consider the cost. Anyway, all of them are easy to find and they belong to
our traditional food.
CARROT CAKE
It’s a cake based on carrot. It’s the only one of our line that
uses flour in its preparation.
Among the principal ingredients we have: natural oil, brown
sugar, flour, eggs, nuts and raisins. An important aspect about
this cake is that carrot is not cooked, so it helps to preserve
its nutrients and benefits such as carotene, an antioxidant
with effective anti-cancer properties. Conventional wisdom is
considered very good for the eyes, gut healing, diuretic and astringent.
[11]

13. CORN CAKE
This cake is based on corn which has been shelled and
ground in order to prepare the cake.
Some of the ingredients are: cheese, butter, brown sugar,
eggs and raisins. Corn wasn’t precooked, so it helps to keep
the natural flavor and make it fresher. The preparation is
really healthy and can be incorporated into any diet or
weight loss maintenance plan balanced.
PUMPKIN CAKE
A cake based on a precooked and mushed pumpkin. The
process of precooking pumpkin is really important because it
gives pumpkin the consistence needed and enhance the
flavor. The ingredients are: cheese, butter, eggs, milk and
brown sugar.
Its principal ingredient, pumpkin, is recognized worldwide for
its high nutritional content of carotenoids, which are
responsible for giving its yellowish color. It is a vegetable that helps to eliminate fat from the
body, prevents constipation, and reduces inflammation due to its copper content, vitamin C
and carotene. It is anthelmintic, making it essential to combat the intestinal worms.
RIPE PLANTAIN CAKE
Precooked with some spices and mushed ripe plantain is the
principal ingredient of this cake, which also need: butter,
brown sugar and milk to complete the recipe.
Among the benefits of ripe plantain, we have: is rich in
carbohydrates which constitute one of the best ways to
nourish our bodies’ energy plant. Be very suitable for the diet
of children and athletes.
SWEET POTATO CAKE
This is a cake based on precooked and mushed sweet potato.
To complete the recipe we also need: milk, butter and
sometimes sugar.
Sweet potato is a source of great health benefits. The sweet
potatoes helps stabilize blood glucose levels and reduce
insulin resistance. These characteristics have led some
researchers to classify as anti-diabetic food. The sweet potato
is rich in carotenoids and antioxidants, vitamin A (as beta carotene), and manganese.
[12]

14. PRIMARY DATA
INTRODUCTION
The primary data is the information that we observed and gathered directly, it means from
first-hand experience.
This type of information is collected specifically to this project, which is going to help us to
solve the problem and achieve the goals we established from the beginning of it. How first-
hand information, we can assure that the information collected won’t have any bias or
subjective problem, because was gathered for this specific situation and own opinions won’t
be include.
It was usually obtained through clinical trials, case studies, true experiments randomized
controlled studies. This information can be analyzed by other experts who might decide to test
the validity of the data by repeating the same process we followed.
ADVANTAGE
 Information collected is unique.
 No one else has access to it.
 Information gathered suits our own purpose.
DISADVANTAGE
 It takes time.
 It’s expensive.
METHODS
 Focus Group
 Blind test
 Observation Technique
 Surveys
[13]

15. FOCUS GROUP
It’s a discussion that develops to find the answers of problems detected by the company about
their products. It also helps to know what costumers are looking at the time of buy a product;
in that way we’ll find the best ideas and suggestions to put them into practice.
The objective of our project is to introduce a line of cakes based on traditional elements of a
development such as carrot, pumpkin, sweet potato, corn, ripe banana. Thereby determine
whether these would be accepted by the patrons of Sweet & Coffee.

[14]

16. CONCLUSIONS
For this topic we selected a group of young people from 19 to 21 years old, enrolled between
4st. and 7st. semester of our faculty FEN.
We divided the focus group in two parts, after and before tasting. In the first part we asked
general questions about Sweet & Coffee and how they look the brand. At the second part we
focused our attention about the new line and the products. Here we are the most important
issues we noticed:
The majority of participants go to Sweet and Coffee regularly but they don’t define themselves
as a regular consumer of that company. They identify the company as an expert in cakes and
coffee and its most famous product is “TortaMojada de Chocolate” (this product identifies the
company) but they also mentioned some type of cold drinks based on coffee suck as:
“Frapuchino” and “NevadoFrío”.
Before they tasted the product we asked if they have ever eaten traditional cakes such as the
ones we propose in our project, they said they have only eaten at home, not in a bakery or
cafeteria.
At the beginning of the taste test, it was pretty difficult to the participants identify the correct
principal product of each cake. They wanted to know it before the taste test. The more
recognized flavor was corn, carrot and ripe plantain; the less one was pumpkin and sweet
potato. The most accepted was carrot cake.
About preference, we noticed people don’t like sweet potato cake because they cannot
identify the product and its appearance. The pumpkin cake was rejected by its consistence (not
solid). Raisins were not accepted by participant and they suggest more nuts.
They suggested a price rank between $1.50 and $2.50 but they said it’s going to depend of the
quality and also the side of the cake’s piece.
Each of the participants sees Sweet & Coffee as the perfect place to sell this kind of products,
because they know they have different options to choose and the appropriated beverages, hot
or cold, to complete their order such as tea, coffee, milk, etc…
[15]

17. RECOMMENDATIONS
Sweet and Coffee has diversity type of cakes and beverage in its current menu. But some of its
regular costumer would like to have the opportunity to also eat Ecuadorian traditional cakes in
the menu.
How it’s important to take the appreciation of our consumer we believe that is better to
launch the whole products as a new line improving some of the characteristic of each cake, for
example: pumpkin cake must be more solid, sweet potato cake should be sweeter and have a
better appearance, so we can incorporate a decoration to make it more attractive. Corn cake
should not have raisins (the majority of participants don’t like it) and the carrot cake should
have more nuts.
We strongly believe that our line would fix perfectly with Sweet and Coffee brand. Our line
could be consumed with the some of the beverage that Sweet & Coffee offers, which could
help to strengthen the current products by creating and adding new desserts. The brand is
committed with Ecuador and its traditions, so our line could be the perfect piece to complete
the company image.
Why not enjoying all homemade desserts at a well-known, friendly and homely place like
Sweet & Coffee?It was the first question we established at the beginning of our project and
now we know we’re not the only persons who would like to have those kinds of products in a
comfortable and strong Ecuadorian brand.
[16]

18. BLIND TEST
The blind test technique is usually used when the researcher want to know the criteria of
consumer about the characteristic of one specific product without paying attention about the
brand or the appearance.
In our case, it was basically conducted to determine if consumer would accept our line without
knowing the principal ingredient of each cake or watching how the product looks like, which is
important in order to analyze why consumer like or dislike each of our products.

QUESTIONS

[17]

19. CONCLUSIONES AND RECOMMENDATIONS
The principal objective when we decided to conduct a blind test was determine if people can
recognize the flavor of each of the cakes and if they could accept them despite their
appearance.
The majority of people like all the cakes, except the pumpkin cake. They said it was
inconsistent; which confirm their preference about this cake and the result we obtained from
the focus group. But a difference we founded was the criteria about sweet potato cake,
because all the blind test participants liked it, but they mistook it with that of ripe plantain. So,
it’s easy to understand how perceptions can change tastes and preference. Appearance it
count also and we should replace purple sweet potato with yellow one or maybe design a nice
cover cake. The cake they like the most was carrot but also corn, they appreciated its flavor
and consistence.
Something reliable to say it’s how easy was recognizing the corn cake and ripe plantain. The
majority of participant could guess those flavors, some of participant could identify some
flavors and a minority couldn’t do it at all. This could be a problem if people don’t feel the
principal ingredient in each cake. For that reason we propose to design covers for each cake in
order to identify them. For example, we should have a carrot cake with little carrot as a cover.
A changing in the recipe isn’t recommending because it could damage the consistence, flavor
and the basically characteristics in general.
[18]

20. OBSERVATION TECHNIQUE
At the moment to make business is important to do an excellent marketing research for obtain
information; the information is indispensable to get the necessary tools to have success with
our project.
Over time Sweet & Coffee has created a positive perception from its consumers, which is very
beneficial for the company. The image projected by the company is to be the pioneer in
Ecuador in service offering, being a coffee company specializing in gourmet coffee and sweets.
Sweet & Coffee is one of the companies with the highest positioning in the main cities of
Ecuador.
In this project we need to do some techniques such as focus group, observation about the
company and the blind test, these are some techniques that we need to apply because each
one of these techniques are essential for obtain information. Each technique would give us
different information, the information that we can obtain with each technique is specific and
different, but all are really important so we will know the information necessary to solve a
specific questions about our project for this reason we want to research the market with the
different methods.
In this case we are going to explain one the techniques that we need to do for our research
market, it is the observation about the company with this technique we can know the service
that Sweet & Coffee offers to their customers, we also can observe the products and the
behavior of the costumers in the enterprise.
OBSERVATION ABOUT SWEET & COFFEE
The observation was made in one of the main shopping centers in Guayaquil, San Marino; we
thought to do the observation there because it is one of the largest malls in the city. The
objective of this technique was to observe to analyze customers behavior before, during and
after the purchase.
Sweet & Coffee offers to its consumers an extensive line of products, their products are varied,
and therefore, we want to know which of their products are the most sold.
[19]

21. The atmosphere in this place is warm and welcoming, the facilities are adequate clean at all
times, it is easy to identify the menu offered, it is well differentiated from desserts and
beverages, the classification of these can help to decide quickly what their customers need.
The site where it is located the company was full, people who came to Sweet & Coffee are
people of all ages, so people who are your customers have different characteristics that must
be satisfied. We believe it would be a good strategy to implement a new line to meet all needs
which may have by their customers because the market of this company is very broad and may
cover more market segmentation.
The care provided by its staff was cordial and respectful. It should be noted that it is a good
strategy by the company to have a staff trained to meet all expectations of its customers, thus
reducing the waiting time to receive the order.
All the information that we could obtain with the observation about the company was
important and we could conclude that Sweet & Coffee offers a really good service, everything
is organized, the atmosphere is relaxing, enjoyable, is a place to spend with friends and family
and we could determine the preference of the costumers with the products that this
enterprise sells. Also, we could observe the preferences that consumers have with the cakes
Sweet and Coffee offers. The most demanded products are the ones that are derivatives of
[20]

22. chocolate and coffee in all presentations offered. This is the information that we could obtain
with our visit to Sweet & Coffee.
This technique proved to be very helpful because it helped us to determine what products are
of high quality, taste good and variety of drinks that Sweet & Coffee sells, that’s why
consumers have lot of products to choose from this company.

24. SURVEYS
Statistical survey is a method for collecting quantitative information about items in a
population. In order to obtain the information for our project we took a representative
sampling of 400 people. We conducted our surveys at Escuela Superior Politécnica del Litoral
ESPOL, in Sweet and Coffee located at Universidad Católica de Santiago de Guayaquil, at the
Av. 9 de Octubre in Guayaquil downtown and in “Mall del Sur” Shopping Center.
SAMPLE SELECTION
Population: Ecuador.
As we know, conduct this technique could be quite difficult if we include all the population,
which would be desirable but not possible.
Sample provides precise results and offers practical considerations such as cost, time and
population size. We should select a representative part of that population if we correctly
choose our sample.
Reason for using a sample:
 Practical considerations
 Inability to analyze huge amounts of data
 Precise results
SAMPLE METHOD
We’re going to use a non-probability sample, the one in which the chances of selecting
members from the population into the sample are unknown.
Non-probability samples are faster and cheaper than probability samples which make our
research easier.
SAMPLING TECHNIQUE
We’re going to use a convenience sampling technique to select the people we’re going to
interview, because we need to determine the acceptance of people about the new line of
cakes, so we need to get as much as different opinions from different people at different
places.
A convenience sample is a sample where the respondents are selected according to the
convenience of the researcher, because they’re easier to recruit for the study. The researcher
makes no attempt, or a limited attempt, to insure that the sample is an accurate
representation of some large group of people.
The classic example of a convenience sampling is standing by at a shopping center, street or
out the store and select she shoppers as they wall to fill up the surveys.
Most researchers prefer convenience sampling, the most common of all sampling technique,
because it is fast, inexpensive, easy and the subjects are really available.
[23]

25. As the formula shows, we chose a 95% of level of confidence, so we have 5% of error, that
took us to find a z=1.96. As we don’t have any previous study that shows us a specific
preference or demand, we used the worst scenario (p=0.50). The formula’s result told us we
should interview 384 people.
Once we have the number of people we should interview, we decided to round it to 400 for
practical reason and also to try to prevent inaccuracy results, cause we know that larger the
sample, more accurate the results are. We’re going to interview people from all ages but how
it would be difficult to travel long distances; we’re going to do it just in Guayaquil.

26. STATISTICAL ANALYSIS
FREQUENCIES
1. ¿Con que frecuencia consume cakes?
As a result of our 399 valid surveys, we see that 63,7% consume cake from 1 to 2 times per
month, a high percent, which indicates that regardless the type of cake, they have an
important place in people’s diet. It also shows there’s actually a potential market that would
be willing to consume frequently the cakes we’re trying to introduce in Sweet and Coffee.
[25]

27. 2) ¿Qué lugar usualmente frecuenta para consumir un cake?
From 374 valid surveys, we can observe that 61,6% of people prefer to go to Sweet and
Coffee to eat a cake, which demonstrates that we’re leaders in this market. In addition, we
conclude that our idea of introducing a new line of traditional cakes is going to be well-
known quickly by most of people because our establishment is the most visited than our
competitors.
[26]

28. 3) ¿Con que frecuencia acude a ese lugar?
From 400 valid surveys, we observed that 61.8% of respondents attend between 1 and 2 time
per month to their favorite place to eat some cake. This percentage is related to, or is very
similar, the table number 1’s percentage (63.7%), which showed how frequently the
respondents consume cakes per month. This relation demonstrates the reliability of data,
because there’s agreement between how many time people consume cakes and how
frequently they visit their favorite places.

31. From 398 valid surveys, it possible to conclude that Sweet and Coffee most preferred products
are milkshakes and ice creams. An idea to help our idea of traditional cakes in its introductory
stage, would be selling both products together o located then strategically in hangers in order
to induce the clients to buy them together.
[30]

32. 5) ¿Cuál es la razón por la cual usted eligió ese lugar?
From 354 valid surveys, the 58.5% of respondents chose quality as the principal reason why
they go to their favorite place.
As we previously established (according Table 2), Sweet and Coffee is the interviewer favorite
place, we can conclude that the costumer show this company because it conveys an idea of
quality in its products. This is a good indicator to assure that people enjoy eating at our stores.
[31]

33. 6) ¿Cuál es el sabor del cake que usted prefiere?
The study shows that from 376 valid surveys, the 56.1% of respondents preferred the
chocolate as preferred for cakes.
[32]

34. 7) Siendo 1 muy bueno y 5 muy malo ¿Qué le parece la idea de introducir en Sweet and Coffeecakes
típicos de zanahoria, zapallo, choclo, maduro y camote?
From 394 valid surveys, the 33% of people say that the idea of introducing the new line of
traditional cakes in Sweet and Coffee seems regular, this indicates that the idea is not rejected
but before the implementation, we should formulate a marketing plan in order to get people’s
attention to assure the product’s success.
[33]

35. 8) De entre los siguientes sabores, indique ¿cuál es su preferido?
From 360 valid surveys, we observe that the preference of people about the different flavors is
varied. There are similar percentages between corn (34.7%) and ripe plantain (32.2%), but also
low percentage to sweet potato (10.6%) and pumpkin (2.2%). So, the line should just include
corn, carrot and ripe plantain because they are the most desired by costumers. It would be
assure us that the idea will be welcomed by costumer with positive critics.
[34]

36. 9) ¿Cuánto está dispuesto a pagar por estos cakes?
From 390 valid surveys, the 60% of people would we willing to pay for traditional cakes
between $1.50 and $2.00. However, the cumulative percentage shows that 89.2% would be
willing to pay a price of up to $2.50. Because of this, we conclude that the price shall not be
greater than $2.50 to assure the acceptance of people.
[35]

37. 10) Indiquesugénero
From 395 valid surveys, we noticed that 41.5% were men and 58.5% were women. This shows
that the surveys’ results can be applied to both genders.
[36]

38. 11)Indiquesuedad
From 398 valid surveys, the majority of respondents with a cumulative percentage of 89.4%
are in an age range from 15 to 25 years old. This indicates that there are a lot of young-adult
people that go to Sweet and Coffee, like cakes and to whom the idea of introducing a line of
traditional desserts were ranked as regular or very good.
[37]

39. CORRELATIONS
 If the price of products is related with the gender.
The matrix shows that the correlation index (0.052) is higher than the level of significance
(0.05), so there’s actually a correlation between the price and the age of respondents. This
analysis gives us information useful to determine the strategy we need to apply with our
potential customers.
 If the price is related whit the frequency of consumption.
The correlation index (0.044) is lower than the level of significance (0.05). Therefore, there is
any correlation. This information relieves that the frequency of consumption of cake does not
depend on the price the costumers are willing to pay. It means, people are indifferent about
the price. The demand would be inelastic or not too sensible.
[38]

40.  Favorite flavor or cakes and age of consumers.
The correlation index (-0.111) is lower that the level of significance, so we can assure there’s
any relation between flavor preference and the age of respondents. The favorite flavor to be
introduced and the age of respondents are unrelated variables; it means that the idea of
introducing this new line is insensitive to the age of costumers.
 Favorite flavor cake and gender.
The correlation index (0.046) is lower that the level of significance (0.05) which means
there is no relation between the preferred flavor and the gender of respondents. The
cake’s flavor is not dependent on gender of respondents. It means, there’s no favorite
flavor, so gender doesn’t determine or changed the preference.
[39]

41.  The idea of the traditional cakes and the age of consumers.
The correlation index (-0.2) is lower than the level of significance (0.01). Therefore, there is no
correlation between the idea of introducing the line in Sweet and Coffee and the age of
respondents. As a result of the analysis we can say that the idea of this introduce this new line
is not dependent on the age of respondents. It means, the target audience in Sweet and Coffee
could be all the clients of this company regardless of their age.
[40]

42. T-TESTS
 The price of cakes related with the gender of consumers.
According to the table, we have a level of significance (0,804) which is higher than the
significant level for the test (0.05). Therefore, the null hypothesis must not be rejected and it
means no significant differences between the average price that consumers are willing to pay
for the cakes and the gender of respondents.
 The frequency of consumption and how often consumers go to their favorite
place.
According to the T-test analysis, we have a significance level of (1) which is higher than
the significance level for the test (0.05). So, the null hypothesis is accepted and it indicates
no significant differences between the mean frequency of consumption of cakes and how
often consumer go to their favorite place.
[41]

43.  The favorite places for the consumption of cakes and the reason for
consumer choice.
According to hypothesis test table for related samples, we have a level of significance
(0.000) which is below the level of significance established for the test (0.05). Therefore,
the null hypothesis is rejected and we can say that there are significant differences
between the means of the favorite places for the consumption of cakes and the reason for
consumer choice.
 About the idea of introducing a new line of traditional cakes and the flavor
preferred by consumers.
According to the table, we have a level of significance (0.000) which is lower than the level of
significance established for the test (0.05). So, the null hypothesis is rejected and we can
assure that there are significant differences between the means about the idea of introducing
the new line and the most preferred flavor.
[42]

44. REGRESSIONS
 Study conducted to determine if there is any relationship between how often
consumers go to their favorite place and the frequency of consumption of cakes.
There’s statistical evidence that proves there’s a significant relationship between how often
consumers go to their favorite place and frequency of consumption of cakes. This means that
every time customers come to their favorite place (Sweet and Coffee), they consume at least
one cake.
[43]

45.  Study conducted to determine if there is any relationship between the reasons for
consumer’s choice and the favorite places for the consumption of cakes.
There’s statistical evidence showing that there’s no relationship between the reasons for
consumers’ choice and the favorite places for the consumption of cakes. It means, to go to
a favorite place to consume cake does not depend on the reason for consumers’ choice. In
other words, the individual comes to that a place because its transcendence, brand or
taste. This is positive to Sweet and Coffee because the result of marketing reason shows
that consumer has a preference for this company.
[44]

46.  Study conducted to determine if the flavor is related to the idea of introduce a nwe
line of product.
There’s statistical evidence showing a relationship between the preferred flavor and the
idea of introduce a new line of cakes. It means the idea of the line depends on the flavors to
be introduced; costumers accept the idea according their preference. According to
consumers, the corn cake must be introduced in order to meet their wants.
[45]

47.  Study conducted to find out if there’s any relationship between flavor and

50. SUMMARY AND CONCLUTIONS
It’s quite important to get the best information we can get, it means the must trustable and
accurate information in order to conduct a right marketing research. The effectiveness of our
new line of traditional cakes in Sweet and Coffee is determined by the analysis of our principal
competitors and our ability to identify the right way to meet the needs of consumers.
This study helped us to get more information about the preference of Sweet and Coffee’s
clients and general population, about the idea of introducing a new line of traditional cakes.
The information we collected is:
 The number of people who go to Sweet and Coffee (57,3%) is higher than the other
companies in the market, which are our principal competitors, such us: Juan Valdez
(4,5%) and Dolupa (11,5%).
The study shows that 57,3% of people we interviewed go to Sweet and Coffee, it
means that Sweet And Coffee is a company with good reception in the Ecuadorian
market. According to our study, the principal reason why the clients prefer Sweet and
Coffee is the quality of its service and products.
 The idea of introducing a new line was ranked as regular by the costumers; it means
that among 400 surveys, the majority approves the idea.
The techniques we used at the first part of the project (Focus Group, Blind Test and
Observation) ranked in the top the idea of introducing the new line. Also, it was helpful to
determine which of the cakes the people like the most. The results we got from surveys agree
with the one gotten by the techniques we already mentioned. The favorite flavors are corn,
ripe banana and carrot.
 The flavor they dislike the most was sweet potato in the two part of the study. That
shows their disapproval of consumers about including it in the line.
 Dislike the results we got from the first part of the project, the idea of introducing the
line was ranked between regular and very good.
With the information previously got it, we can assure that the results are positive and with a
right marketing strategy and good product presentation, the idea would be good and
profitable for the company. The research also helped us to determine the potential clients of
this new line. Most of the people between 15 and 25 years old used to go to Sweet and Coffee
and ranked the idea as good, so we can consider those people as our target market.
[49]

51. MARKETING RECOMMENDATIONS
The new line of traditional cakes named as “Traditional Ecuadorian’s deserts” could be carried
out with a great success due to the considerable level of possible consumer.
The line should include the following flavors: carrot, corn, ripe banana and pumpkin.
The possible actual product offered by Sweet and Coffee which could be perfectly consumed
by the clients would be hot and cold coffee, milkshakes or any other beverage based on
chocolate or coffee.
The sweet potato flavor should not be included or it could be part of a future marketing
research project, because at the moment is not viable in regards of the wants and needs of the
population.
METHODOLOGICAL LIMITATIONS
 We interviewed common people with not distinctions.
 Due to our limited budge we only interviewed people from Guayaquil, creating
uncertainness about the preferences of consumer in the rest of the country.
 We must consider that maybe there were committed some interviewer errors like:
misunderstanding, guessing, attention loss or distractions. So maybe some answers did
not reflect the reality.
 For future studies there should be considered questions related to the increase
consumption specifically in the area of study, which were omitted in these surveys.
