Product Orientated
The realisation of the ability to produce initially precedes the concept of the customer, i.e. pizza restaurants and ethnic restaurants moving into the take away area along with lower cost goods such as fish and chips take away.
An inward looking stance

Market Orientated
The desire to provide for the consumers wants is the primary initiative, i.e. branded chain restaurants such as McDonalds, KFC and Burger King. A pro-active approach rather than re-active.

Directional Policy Matrix
Generic Strategies
Consumer Trends in the Fast Food Sector
Increase in the interest of the takeaway market – a growth market Women play a greater role in the workforce, more disposable
income Interest in healthy eating, vegetarianism, and heightened concern
with regard to red meat Competition from supermarket pre-prepared meals
Burgers
A decline in the sales of beef burgers due to foot and mouth disease and BSE fears
McDonalds suffered a fall in profits of 16% in Europe Diageo are investigating the dispersion of the Burger King chain,
followed closely by WimpyWHY?
More consumers are becoming environmentally and health conscious
High consumer interest in organic food Desire for higher quality products as a result of more disposable
income and safety fears McDonalds is looking to expanding into other markets, i.e. hotels Limited growth in the short to medium term (1 – 5 years)
Fried Chicken
Segment grew by 33%, between 1996 and 2000, to £633 million
WHY? Customers are eating more chicken due to its perceived healthier
image The segment is at a higher growth rate than others in the market,
perhaps due to recent health scares Takeaway is increasing its share from 50% in 1998 to an
estimated 54% in 2000 Takeaway chicken accounts for an estimated 80% of sector sales Short term growth will be achieved by planned expansion and
differentiation
Ethnic Takeaways
Sales are expected to increase by 16% between 2000 and 2004
WHY? Cheaper foreign travel to long haul destinations encourages
interest Increasing number of ethnic outlets Chinese takeaways are more buoyant in terms of segment value
Pizza and Pasta
Popular with a large target market and is perceived as a healthy option
The pizza segment is moving more upmarket, e.g. Pizza Express, Ask etc
Fish and Chips
A broad age appeal, despite increasing competition Those in low socio economic groups are among the most
common consumers The sector is in decline due to rising prices of both fish and
potatoes Lack of supplies Success of relatively high market fish cafes Many outlets have diversified their menu In the long term, not a good market to invest into
Sandwiches
In 2001, sandwich consumption will account for over 13% of the total eating out market
The segment enjoys growth rates of between 7 and 8% Product innovation Appeals to the consumer Satisfies nutritional demand for healthy eating Suits the increase in busier lifestyles 38% of sandwich eating working managers and 31% of sandwich
eating women stop off for a sandwich Growing affluence has increased sales In the long term, growth in this sector will be obtained by sandwich
delivery
Salad Market
31% increase at current prices over the next 4 years Driven by the demand for convenience and healthy foods Key target markets are younger, pre-family, working consumers
with busy lifestyles Added value products will ensure growth
