Strategic Group Analysis of the 1980s Food Industry PPT


This PPT slide, part of the 654-slide Business Unit Strategy Training Program PowerPoint presentation, presents a strategic group analysis framework applied to the food industry during the 1980s. It illustrates how shifts in strategic intent can be visualized using a matrix that categorizes companies based on 2 dimensions: geographical coverage and marketing intensity. The vertical axis represents geographical coverage, ranging from low to high, while the horizontal axis indicates marketing intensity, from focused to wide.

In the upper right quadrant, we see multinational major brands like Unilever, Danone, and Nestlé, which likely dominated the market with extensive geographical reach and significant marketing efforts. This positioning suggests a strong presence in various regions, supported by robust marketing strategies. The lower left quadrant includes minor national brands such as Colmans and ABF, indicating a more localized approach with limited marketing intensity.

The slide emphasizes that shifts in strategic intent can be effectively captured within this matrix, allowing for a clearer understanding of how companies evolve over time. The visual representation aids in identifying trends and potential movements within the industry, which can inform strategic decisions. For potential customers, this analysis provides a framework for assessing market dynamics and understanding competitive positioning. It highlights the importance of monitoring changes in strategy among industry players, which can directly impact market opportunities and threats. Overall, the slide serves as a valuable tool for executives looking to navigate the complexities of the food industry landscape.
