...MARKETING PLAN OF SELECTA ICE CREAM I – EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Selecta’s humble beginnings can be traced to the Arce family’s ice cream parlor in Manila in 1948. Its ice cream was well-known for its creaminess, authentic flavours, and unique gold can packaging—qualities that remained throughout the years. In 1990, RFM Corporation bought Selecta from the Arce family to form Selecta Dairy Products, Inc. Known for its sharp entrepreneurship, RFM catapulted the rise of Selecta as a serious contender in the ice cream market always ahead in product innovations by creating new and exciting flavours like Cookies and Cream, Halo Halo, Ube Macapuno, and Chocolate Almond Fudge, and supported by heart-warming media campaigns that depict Selecta as an ice cream that creates family bonding moments. In 1997, Selecta became the market leader in the Philippine capital, which accounted for 60% of the nation’s ice cream consumption. In 1999, to complement its frozen novelties category and strengthen itself for competition, RFM teamed up with Unilever, the largest ice cream company in the world to form Selecta Walls Incorporated. The joint-venture proved to be a success and in 2000, Selecta defeats competition to become the national ice cream leader. And that has been the story since with its passion for exceeding the expectations of consumers, unwavering dedication to quality, and unrelenting quest to improve itself through its innovations, Selecta or Unilever RFM Ice Cream, Inc....

...Novaliches, Quezon City. In 1938, demand for the ice cream was so high that the plant had to be moved to Lepanto St. in Manila, making it more accessible to the consumers. The existing plant at Selecta Drive in Balintawak, Quezon City under the stewardship of Mauro C. Arce, Sr. was established in 1952. In January 1990, the third generation of Arces outvoted the family of Mauro C. Arce, Sr., and the brand name Selecta Dairy Product was sold to RFM Corp.. However, the ice cream business and the dairy plant were retained by the family of Mauro C. Arce, Sr. lock, stock, and barrel. The Arce type of ice cream, the “all-natural” ice cream, has captured the hearts of Manilanians through the decades of its uniqueness and its old fashioned manufacturing process. Tenacious requests from prominent clients, captive loyal followers and food connoisseurs, demand for its return. In January of 1995, the dairy plant resumed operations, and the family of Mauro C. Arce, Sr. renamed the product “ArceDairy Ice Cream”. This name was so chosen because no other company can just call their product “dairy ice cream” unless the butter fat content comes from milk. Only carabao’s milk can pass the butter fat content requirement for ice cream naturally, without any add ons. On top of this, the machines used in the plant at Selecta Drive allow the use of solid chunks of fresh fruits for flavoring the old fashioned way, unlike the mass production machines which use puree. While the way of making this gourmet type...

...2012 was a good year for U.K. coffee cafés. Among Leading 100 U.K. chains, the coffee café segment grew sales 12.2 percent, due largely to U.K.-based Costa Coffee (sales up 18.5 percent) and Starbucks (sales up 6.1 percent). Together, these two brands made up over 80 percent of coffee cafés sales within the Leading 100, while the remainder came from Caffe Nero, Wacky Warehouse (Corner Coffee) and AMT Coffee Bars. New players to the category, however, are expected to heat up competition. Harris + Hoole, a coffee shop concept backed by U.K. retail-giant Tesco, has opened seven stores since the start of the year (for a total of 17). The chain focuses on its independent look and feel, which changes based on location. Italy-based Lavazza announced its intentions of opening 50 Lavazza Espression shops across the U.K. by 2015. With four locations currently in the country, this upscale coffee café concept features a large selection of Lavazza espresso beverages, as well as a menu that was created through Lavazza’s partnerships with world-renowned chefs. The popularity of high quality coffee in the U.K. has also gotten the attention of brands in other categories. Wanting to take its own share of the market, KFC U.K. rolled out Lavazza coffee at its outlets nationwide earlier this year. Greggs, the U.K. brand known for its chain of bake shops, has launched a coffee shop concept called Greggs moment, which features fairtrade coffee and a selection of specialties from its bakery menu. ...

San Pedro, Maranatha Hope T. Sollestre, John Adrian F. Velasquez, Frances Anne S. Submitted to Prof. Rosario Taylo January 28, 2011 Campaign Title: “Pambansang ice cream, ating tangkilikin!” I. Background/Research Arce Dairy Ice Cream, formerly Selecta, started on January 1990 when the Arce family signed away the lifework spanning three generations. Today, Arce Dairy faces stiff competition in the marketplace for established names such as Magnolia, Nestle, Selecta, BTIC. Arce Dairy Ice Cream was established by Don Ramon Arce, Sr. in the year 1935. It was during 30’s when Don Ramon Sr., became a member of President Quezon’s staff who bought land in Novaliches where the farm was bountiful. Also, there was always pure carabao’s milk on the table which he pasteurized and brought it to Manila. That ‘sideline’ became the start of creating an idea to build their own ice cream manufacturing. In 1962, it was almost 30 years after their grieving stage for the loss of Don Ramon Sr., they decided to sign away from their business in which they also considered as a personal, emotional thing for their family. Their shares in the company were being sold to other stockholders of the Arcecon Dairy Products. After 20 years of resting from the ice cream industry, they now...
