It capitalises on the "Yorkshire Grit" stereotype of hard working no nonsense people. It's tag line "Let's have a proper brew!" and "Do things proper"]]> 2022-01-26 09:32:08 UTC https://padlet.com/zbiscombe/p3tyn543vghbmbft/wish/2013121261 zbiscombe https://padlet.com/zbiscombe/p3tyn543vghbmbft/wish/2013127644 The standard black tea market is a tough place to create switching and growth. Growth was exactly what Yorkshire Tea needed to do. They needed to look beyond Yorkshire’s current fans to the ‘sleep shopping’ buyers of PG and Tetley. They created a new campaign based on the idea that Yorkshire Tea is a place ‘Where everything’s done proper’, and proved it by hiring some of Yorkshire’s most talented celebrities to perform jobs around the factory. The Brownlee Brothers became Yorkshire Tea’s new couriers, the Kaiser Chiefs performed their music live in reception and Sir Michael Parkinson was brought on board to interview new recruits.  This reenforced the "Yorkshire" brand image but widened the reach of the product through consumer association with well known celebrities. ]]> 2022-01-26 09:35:40 UTC https://padlet.com/zbiscombe/p3tyn543vghbmbft/wish/2013127644 zbiscombe https://padlet.com/zbiscombe/p3tyn543vghbmbft/wish/2013150566 Yorkhsire Tea is distributed through dierct and inderect channels in the UK. Product can be purchase through their website together with Yorkshire Tea merchendise. Primarily they sell through retialers (supermarkets) to consumers. Whilst the full range of products are avaialble in the main supermarkets. They also sell the main product (tea bags) in low cost supermarkets such as Lidl where prices are often disocunted 50% extra fee. 

Offering the full range in major supermarkets meets cusotomer needs and is appropriate for the segmentation. Customers shopping there wil spend more on groceries and do require a large choice, they are more likely to have differnt needs from tea bags and tea leaves. Cusotmers in Lidl and Aldi etc are looking for "bargain" and accept that the supermarkts carry a limited choice.

Yorkshire Tea is also sold through agents in intenrational markets including Turkey. It can be purchased through smaller independent retialers in international markets. This opens up new markets for Yorkshire Tea and the potentail for new customers. It also meets the needs of ex pats looking for home comfort shopping.
