Product:
Brand Name: The product I have chosen is Mars Maltesers.

Packaging: Malteasers are packaged in a red plastic bag which may be recycled. Larger packs also include a resalable plastic bag, a cardboard box or they may come in a bucket.
Product Life cycle: A product lifecycle Is how the product grows. It begins at the Research & Development stage to Introduction, Growth, Maturity and the eventually Declines.
Maltesers are currently still at the mature stage of the product lifecycle and don’t seem to be declining any time soon. Mars has produced many other products which keep each individual product at the mature stage alongside eachother.

Quality: Maltesers are a high quality fair-trade product. Mars is aiming to ensure Maltesers ingredients are marked as sustainably produced.
Product Positioning: This means how your product is in comparison to the competitors product. Mars are a very well-known brand therefore already has a good reputation up against other brands it competes with.
Target Market: Malteasers target market is basically all chocolate lovers. Malteasers come in packets containing a small amount of calories so may attract people on low calorie diets. Malteasers are sold in ‘party mix’ bags with a range of other sweets or chocolates which are targeted at young children or may be purchased at seasonal occasions e.g birthdays, Halloween etc.
Design: Maltesers have a very easily recognisable design on their packet. It’s a brightly red colour to attract the customer’s eye with a picture of said ‘malteser’ on the packet. I think they attract customers because they look appealing and attractive.

    As the text book says, “The product life cycle is concerned with the sales history of a product class which holds that a product’s sales change over time in a predictable way and that products go through a series of five distinct stages: introduction, growth, shakeout, maturity, and decline”(Mullins & Walker, 2010, p271). Each of these stages has opportunities and threats for the firm, and they can affect the strategy of the company. Thereby, the product life cycle is an important way for managers to make decisions in the future.…

    M&M’s started its gigantic universal recognition in a small kitchen by Forrest Mars Sr, all he had were a few utensils and a small oven. It was during the Spanish Civil War, young soldiers were puppets of conflictions between sides, not knowing when they will go back home and if they might make it for that matter of fact. While sustaining their orders, Forrest Mars Sr. noticed that little was there to make their time bearable, as little as a chocolate shaped pebble! Forrest Mars Sr. noticed that these little miracle pebbles were fun and convenient to eat and easy to carry around, he also noticed that its significance was due to its hard sugar coating over the chocolate which kept it from melting. Inspired by this revelation he fought along his curiosity back to his kitchen and there he created what we now know; the “M&M’s” Plain Chocolate Candies.…

M&M's are by far the finest chocolate that has been made, coated within a little shell, then colored and finally imprinted with the letter “M”. Since their introduction in 1941 as a treat for the military, M&M’s have become a popular candy for everyone to enjoy. The name is an abbreviation for their creators, Forrest Mars and Bruce Murrie.…

    These sugar-filled boxes are deceptive, there are advertised as being a marvellous collection of all the best chocolates, but this is a false-facade. Collections like ‘Quality Street’ mix some good and some bad, so that you pay a fortune and only enjoy eating half of them. The rest you are forced to eat because it would make the price you previously paid unjust. Take the coconut-conundrum. Why companies feel the need to ruin a perfectly good pieces of chocolate with coconut remains a super mystery! It seems that they are box fillers, there simply to make up the numbers. They always seems to catch you out whilst browsing through a range of assorted chocolates, and once in your mouth you are left with no other option but to swallow it whole. Even after having eaten it, you are left with a lingering taste which is only quenchable by another wrapped-mystery. The outside and the coating of all the range seem delicious and similar, yet the evil interior of the coconut-filled dairy-droplet only comes out after you have placed your trust in it. Even the more-popular brands such as Galaxy, never live up to the expectation of a full chocolate bar, because the taste of plastic and metal foil, which they have been in for years has infected them. Despite my objections to these mini-chocolate collections, the more-popular brands disappear in a heart-beat and you are left to scuffle over the not-so-good options. The names which they accompany, such as Celebrations, claim that these chocolate mix-ups are viable…
