Making a marketing plan to sell healthy food products to children.
I need support with this Marketing question so I can learn better.
Critical Thinking
The market for young people’s food products has increased considerably in recent years. As a result, children have become high-potential customers and are now the focus of intense and specialized marketing and advertising efforts.
Children and adolescents have become attractive consumers and influencers: they have an increasing influence on their family’s purchases. Children represent an important target audience for marketers because they have their own purchasing power, influence their parents’ purchasing decisions, and are the consumers of tomorrow. Advertisers have an interest in seducing them from an early age. Thus, to be sure to attract young people, companies opt for a combination of different approaches and channels such as television advertising, contests and games, toys, the use of popular characters, the use of various attractive colors, school marketing, Internet and branded products etc.
Food and beverages products that target children have increased and these products are dominated by foods that are high in calories, sugars, salt, fat, low in nutrients and therefore not compatible with national dietary recommendations.
Mr. Fahmy has already a business in the food sector and wants to open a new subsidiary specializing in natural and organic products for children. The goal is to provide healthy, nutritious food and use healthier ingredients.
