- 7. 3. Market Opportunity for PASTA versus PIZZA PASTA • Market-$4.4 billion in 2007 • Launched as a new brand – Cucina Fresca • Is considered as a MEAL • Perceived price value gap was lesser PIZZA • Market-$5.8 billion in 2007 • Brand awareness already created due to Cucina Fresca • Is considered as an INDULGENCE • Perceived price value gap was higher

Editor's Notes
- Types of pastas- cut: ravioli, tortellini, linguine, The pack included pasta as well as sauces It came in smaller packages unlike other existing pastas.
- Since it went first, it was able to grab large market share. 3. Unmet demand of convenient as well as healthy food option Read PAGE 5 5th para for detailed reasons for product success 4. It was healthy as it was a wholegrain pasta, it was also tasty unlike other competing products
- 3rd stage: Major Difference- No actual pasta taste test was conducted for the BASES research for the estimation of sales and repeat sales. -Actual pizza kits were distributed in the case of the pizza line. PASTA: EXHIBIT 3,4, Table A for second and third stage stage and EXHIBIT 5 for final stage PIZZA: EXHIBIT 6,7,8 for second stage, 9 and 10 for home trial.
- 3. Since pasta is considered a meal, health is more important there but since pizza is an indulgence, people would always choose taste against just health. 4. Exhibit 4 (PASTA) – only 8% felt that it was too expensive; Exhibit 9 shows 26% of favorable customers asking for a price reduction Thus, for the pizza eaters it made more sense to eat the tastier and fresher takeout rather than a healthy probably less tasty pizza
- If we don’t Ragazzi will come out with it, and we will lose the first mover advantage Price could be revisited up to 10% keeping in mind required sales of $12 million Market it using strong points against takeout and refrigerated normal pizza
