Marketing of Glenmeadie
SWOT Analysis
Strengths
* Good company as their product is being sold internationally in 180 countries. * Offers apprenticeship to overseas students * History & Heritage: Glenmeadie Castle, home of the company’s distillation and storerooms for nearly a century and a half * Organise events for tasting of their whisky

Weaknesses * Customers are with them for a short amount of time and not there loyal customers for a long period. * Could lose profit due to Vodka and Rum * Production not keeping up with demand * Strategy needs to be changed due to more investment been made in the front end of the business.

Opportunities * Make customers loyal customers by involving the consumers more about the company and its offers. E.g. emails, customised bottles for special occasions and newsletters on the companies achievements. * Bring excitement to the company so it interests consumers. * Increase bonds with suppliers * Personalise bottles for special occasions for consumers

Threats * Competition of other whisky distillers like Famous Grouse * Consumers wanting vodka or rum instead * Changes of regulations * Taxation

Glenmeadie relates to the alcohol sector.

As I have read through the case study Glenmeadie want to implement a new strategy to keep their customers for longer. This includes providing loyalty cards, special promotions for birthdays and anniversaries and also are including newsletters which will be distributed to their customers.
Glenmeadies want to show they have a superior brand by
