CHALLENGE
A plant-based food startup hired Integration to size the market potential for plant-based hamburgers and to create a plan to take these new products to the Brazilian and European Markets. In particular, they asked for our support in understanding consumer behavior in this booming market where there was limited data.
APPROACH
Given the lack of available market data, Integration focused on building a large body of primary research to help our client. By studying plant-based food dynamics in Europe and North America, interviewing experts, and conducting statistically significant surveys with consumers, we were able to develop an insightful and original understanding of the market dynamics and create various market entry scenarios.
RESULT
Our work provided detailed information about potential income per category, price sensitivity, potential risks, main competitors, and market size per region in the client’s geographical areas of interest.
In parallel, Integration developed a detailed implementation roadmap and the commercial model design. With this information, it was possible for our client to understand and address the success factors needed to develop the category in Brazil and Europe and kick-start their operations and sales.
CHALLENGE
One of the largest American suppliers of construction materials was interested in entering the Mexican market but had limited experience of operating in the region. They asked Integration to help their assessment of whether the market was attractive for their current portfolio and operating model, and where/how they should concentrate their strategy.
APPROACH
Integration carried out a quantitative and qualitative understanding of the Mexican market, creating reliable estimations about market size (per city) and potential growth through a sophisticated statistical model that considered variables such as foreign direct investments, public infrastructure budget, number of households, and car use and infrastructure projects pipeline.
RESULT
The financial modeling and qualitative success factors allowed the client to make the decision to enter the country. Furthermore, with our understanding of compliance in Mexico, government and regulatory influence, players, and pricing positioning per region the client was able to prepare fully for this entry and accelerate the development of their GTM strategy.
Collaborative market analysis data involving various regional and international companies from various industries (especially food, beverage, personal care and tobacco), financial sector, technology, retail, services, housing and transportation.
Also, as the integration grew globally, we gained insight into business practices, customer preferences, policies and local practices in different regions. This broad knowledge allows us to access international experts by industry and region to provide reliable results and updates on our recommendations.
