Customer view:Quality coffee. Attractive promotion. Price is suitable for a global brand.
Weakness Not following the category truth( coffee is hot as good as milk & consumer’s perception (coffee cant not be a good drink that make you prettier)
R2B is not strong (cant convince TC with a coffee brand can make you prettier”
It start from a non-coffee brand that they have many difficult to deeply understanding about TA in VN
It’s not well known and why I should drink it just because it’s brand ambassador?
Trung nguyen choose the way to compare with competitors to confirm brand’s voice is not ok. They don’t have a clear strong compare two competitors
Too strong for a lot people
Taste is not better than other brand. They change a lot objective and way in short time -> no single minded. Nestle is a company specializing in café, milk, cacao, cream…( too much)
Taste is not good, not strong, it just miss approve level
