4. INTRODUCTION
Cadbury is known to make chocolates with a difference and Gems is yet another
unique offering. What makes Gems different is the way the chocolate has been
designed; a little button of chocolate covered with colorful candy shell with
attractive packaging.
Quite predictably, Gems became a big hit given its unique taste and shape.
Having grown up with the brand, a lot of teens and adults consume Gems as
well.

popular amongst kids
THREATS:

being healthy
9. PEST Analysis
A. Demographic factor:-
1. P o p u l a t i o n g r o w t h : - c h o c o l a t e s h a v e w i d e i m p a c t
o n p o p u l a t i o n growth.
2. Educational groups:-target population is all age groups but the education
group will have more influence on it. As this is used to celebrate
event such as birthday days
3. Population age mix:- All age groups would like to prefer gems.
B. Political factor:-
1. If government increases the tax rate on chocolates than customer have to pay
more for it If tax increase by10% than normal Cadbury gems of 5 Rs will be of
5.50.
2. If inflation rate increases than it will affect FMCG sector so dairy milk also will
be affected.
C. Economic:-
1. In festival seasons the demand of chocolates increases.
2. More demand will depend upon the buying power of consumers.
3. Willingness to buy:-demand of chocolates will depend on the persons
willingness to buy, this will depend on the quality of the Cadbury gems and
need.
4. Taste and preference:- Cadbury has wide variety of products and 1of them is
Gems. Its different varieties are fruit and nut, raisins, almond. So the demand
will be according to the taste and preferences of the variety.
D. Social:-
1. If the population size decreased then their would be less people to buy their
products therefore less profit.
2. If peoples lifestyles changed e.g. more people wanting to get fit and lose
weight, then they will stop eating chocolate and spend there money on gym
memberships etc. This means that Cadburys profits will decrease.
10. E.Techonological
1. An increase in capital expenditure e.g. more up to date equipment would
mean that the goods where produced quicker and cheaper but would also
result in job loses.
2. Research and development- keep developing new products to keep up with
competition and customer needs.
