  1. Mention minor product adjustments as well (part of local marketing e.g. coke)
  2. Demand for these tasty delicacies, once considered too foreign a taste for the Chinese palate, has been steadily growing. Esp. since living standards have been rising.Better retail and distribution facilities. Whiletraditionally sales restricted to the winter months, and many foreign brands are now sold in shops all year round. New year has always been zenith of candy salesWe realized China's confectionery market is rapidly transforming to our benefit, creating various opportunities for foreign exporters.Candy occupies a special place in Chinese culture–it is a gift item of choice. traditionally Given to family or guests at weddings symbolizing happiness  “happy candy” has therefore created a niche sub-sector in the confectionery ind. in China
  3. By 2011, the Chinese confectionery industry has grown to almost 8 billion dollarsChina has become the world’s second-largest confectionery producer by volume after the United States. There are more than 2,000 candy manufacturers in mainland China. 10% of the market in 2016!!!
  4. O:-Chinese market is growing at a rate of 12 to 15 %.
  5. gums, candy, crackers and chocolateWant Want, the largest rice cake and flavored drinks maker in Taiwan. It engages in the manufacturing and trading of snack foods and beverages and operates over 100 manufacturing plants in Mainland China where it employs over 60,000 people. Mars Foods have two chocolate factories in China. These two factories produce brands including SNICKERS®, M&M'S®, DOVE® and CRISPY®. Mars sells their chocolate products through hundreds of distributors and a large number of National Key Accounts.Lotte Confectionery is a South Korean company which manufactures and sells more than 200 products to more than 70 countries. It is the No.3 chewing gum manufacturer in the world. Since 1993, Wrigley's has grown into the largest confectionery company in China, and its products are among the widest distributed consumer goods in the country.
  6. All our main competitors, who are already selling in China, are producing in China with their own production plants. Therefore and also in order to save shipping costs we decided to also rent one. Our plant will be located in Suzhou which is located in the Yangtze River Delta, one of the most industrial regions in China. The infrastructure there is very well established which will facilitate the transportation to our retail stores. We first decided to start selling our products in major cities in the coastal areas, such as Shanghai, Beijing, Dalian, Qingdao, and Hongkong. Within two years we then want to expand the distribution of our product throughout all of China. In this graph we have illustrated this expansion strategy until 2015 and finally until 2017
  7. Next I want to talk about our operational plan and the steps we have to take until the final launch of our product.
  8. First of all we’ll have to find the right plant based on our transportation and logistics needs. We’ll then hire a representative who will help us translate all the necessary documents, prepare our business registration and can speak to the local officials for us. Next we’ll prepare a detailed 5 year plan. This plan is crucial because we can only register our business after the plan has been approved by the Chinese government. After successfully registering our business we will then start to renovate our plant and start buying equipment. Because relationships are crucial to doing business in China successfully we will also travel to china and try to build as manny connections as possible by visiting tradeshows and fairs and talking to local business owners. Our next step will be to hire and start training our staff members. Besides from some employees in key positions we will try to fill all available positions will local Chinese. The next step will be the crucial phase for our product launch. We will design a marketing campaign that is especially adapted to the needs and preferences of the Chinese customers. After the Chinese governbemt has approved this campaign we will meet with representatives from already established chains like McDonalds to further discuss cooperation with them. We will then finally launch our marketing campaign and at the same time start our promotion campaign.In January 2013 we will then finally launch our product. We choose January because it is right before the Chinese New Year. In China our Gummibears are known as a popular gift for special occasions so this will boost our initial sales even more.
