    | I always shopped at Morrisons even after the revamp. The fresh prepared fruit had gone up from £1 to £1.25 and the ‘restaurant pizzas’ were 3 for £2: 50 the week before, but are now 3 for £ 3.00 so I went to Tesco and was surprised at the offers and they gave me £12 voucher off my next shop, when I spend £60. So, I am not going to shop at Morrisons.Again, a recent poll by Sun City “Morri-Poll” reveals the supermarket’s customers are fed up with posh displays such as “misty” exotic vegetables and delis. As one customer, who shopped in Morrisons since 1965 has stopped shopping in the supermarket, while a staff claimed that “I’ve worked for Morrisons for the last six years and the last 16 months have been the worst.” Such type of comments about a supermarket is particularly dangerous, given a study conducted in 1999 by customer service research firm TARP shows that: * One unhappy customer tells ten people about their experience. Each of these ten people tells another five people, meaning up to 50 people get to know of one person's poor experience with a firm. * central-e-commerce unfolds that a dissatisfied consumer will tell between 9 and 15 people about their experience. About 13% of dissatisfied customers will even tell more than 20 people!…

    Secondary research was also carried out in order to gather wider information relating to how many curries are being eaten in the United Kingdom. This will allow me to see whether businesses are developing or being taken out the high street. Secondary research is also known as “desk research”, this was done during the planning of the target market. Research was collected from the internet, which allowed me to see how many curries were being sold in a business each month; this also helped me to target the amount of curries i shall be selling within a month. This allowed me to collect information quickly, cheaply and which was partly up-to-date (I looked for more current information, but 2011 was the most up-to-date that i could find), and the source was reliable from a reliable source (Mintel) which I believed it was easy to understand and follow. Different sources was used to make sure that all information gathered was the same and reliable. The type of information i was looking was whether the market was growing and the types of the curry which was the most popular.…
