Emerging Competition

> QSRs getting aggressive with Pit Stop Customers> Quiznos and other sandwich franchises introducing breakfast menus> Jack in The Box, Burger King aggressively marketing “grab-n-go”> McDonalds offers premium coffee/expresso services

> Coffee and Juice companies go for the getaway break crowd> Oatmeal and Sandwiches at Jamba Juice, Starbucks and

Caribou. Even tests at Baskin Robbins

> Groceries marketing enhanced bakeries> Seating and free coffee refills> Quantity packs aimed towards offices

Other Factors

> With drop in tobacco related business, stores need to build their focus elsewhere – particularly in the AM.

> Quality coffee isn’t what it used to be> Only 52% of adults drink coffee. > Near glut of coffee bars and alternatives in most urban markets

> Breakfast menus are expanding> More breakfast choices with focus on convenience

> More focus on fresher and healthier offerings

How to Defend and Grow Share

> More focus on the 48% of customers that don’t drink coffee> Promote waters, fruit drinks, and other healthier beverages> Energy drinks and energy “shots” are growing caffeine delivery substitutes

> Keep cost low and value high> Target food service item below $2.50 with focus on high value per

> bfast sandwiches for burritos for “2 for $2.49” is winner> Remember that 87% of commuters drive alone

> Special deal on 16 coffees “when you buy 2” not likely a winner

Defend and Grow Share

> Make an effort to target women> Offer healthier fare such as yogurt, breakfast bars> Photos of females in ads. Make them feel welcome

> Re-enforce need for breakfast in promotion copy> People who eat breakfast have easier time losing weight

> Focus on variety and convenience> Mix in ads for other convenience items such as aspirin, chapstick, etc.

Summary

> Morning traffic is more than ¼ of daily traffic, and the products in demand are often different than at other times of day. It’s worth spending time to build a unique schedule to target customers.

> Think past coffee and donuts – especially in beverages. 48% of adults don’t drink coffee. What do you have for them?

> Value and variety are key, and cost is a factor.

> Women skip breakfast more than any other demographic, and are also most aware of the value of a good breakfast. It’s a key audience that probably isn’t coming into your store already.
