    Unit 2 Frozen Yogu Qrt2 Task 2

    Current Online Competitor Assessment: If one looked for “frozen yogurt” in Issaquah, WA, you would find as the top choice “Yum-e Yogurt”. This local family owned and operated establishment can be considered a direct competitor and is geographically less than a mile away. Yum-e Yogurt is both a coffee house and frozen yogurt restaurant all in one, founded in 2012 when the first store opened in Maple Valley, WA. The Yum-e Yogurt location in Issaquah that is barely two months old is just the second Yum-e Yogurt store of this entrepreneurial frozen yogurt restaurant chain. Their website is simple and easy to navigate. They emphasize in a big way their core family beliefs in their mission statement as well as pride in the quality of the coffee, frozen yogurt and smoothies that they offer in their store (Yum-e Yogurt, n.d.). They have links directly from their webpage to their social media content on Facebook and Twitter where they have a comparatively larger following than our U-Swirl store. They have 4.5 stars out of 5 stars rating from an average of 16 customer reviews on Yelp (http://www.yelp.com/biz/yum-e-yogurt-issaquah). They however do not have a setup for a loyalty program to serve as an incentive for repeat customers and do not have the option to purchase anything from their website. They also do not appear to have any kind of Customer Relationship Management (CRM) component online that could further enhance their business relationship with their loyal…

    Mcdonald's Strategic Prospects

    With more than 31,000 restaurants in 118 countries and serving nearly 60 million consumers daily, McDonald’s (MCD) has grown to be the largest food service merchant worldwide. It is because of this that McDonald’s ranks higher than both Burger King Holdings (BKC) and Yum! Foods Inc. (Yum) in just about every category of the Competitive Profile Matrix (CPM). The 2008 year end numbers show that McDonald’s revenue of $22.99 billion doubled that of Yum and more surprisingly almost ten times the revenue of Burger King. Yum ended the year with a net income of $928 million, which sounds like a good year until you see that MCD’s year netted $4.35 billion (David, 2011).…

    Mcdonald's Past and Present

    Since its incorporation in 1955, McDonald's Corporation has not only become the world's largest quick-service restaurant organization, but has literally changed Americans' eating habits--and increasingly the habits of non-Americans as well. On an average day, more than 46 million people eat at one of the company's more than 31,000 restaurants, which are located in 119 countries on six continents. About 9,000 of the restaurants are company owned and operated; the remainders are run either by franchisees or through joint ventures with local businesspeople. System wide sales (which encompass total revenues from all three types of restaurants) totaled more than $46 billion in 2003. Nine major markets--Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, France, Germany, Japan, the United Kingdom, and the United States--account for 80 percent of the restaurants and 75 percent of overall sales. The vast majority of the company's restaurants are of the flagship McDonald's hamburger joint variety. Two other wholly owned chains, Boston Market (rotisserie chicken) and Chipotle Mexican Grill (Mexican fast casual), along with Pret A Manger (upscale prepared sandwiches), in which McDonald's owns a 33 percent stake, account for about 1,000 of the units.…

    Life in the Drive-Thru Lane: a Look at the Impact of Fast Food on America

    Not only is fast food affecting America, it is also affecting the rest of the world. "Fast food has joined Hollywood movies, blue jeans, and pop music as one of America 's most prominent cultural exports" (Schlosser 10). In foreign countries, companies adapt their food to local tastes (Hatfield). McDonald 's has about 17,000 restaurants outside the United States in more than 120 foreign countries (Schlosser 229). They open about five new restaurants every day, and typically four of them are overseas (Schlosser 229).…

    Financial Analysis of Yum Brands

    However, before trying to access these financial statements, it is important to understand more specifics about Yum's business model. According to Reuters, Yum "is a quick service restaurant (QSR) with over 34,000 units in more than 100 countries and territories." These quick service restaurants include consumer favorites such as Taco Bell, Pizza Hut, Long John Silver's, and KFC. Whether the operating segment sells pizza or chicken, "Yum develops, operates, franchises and licenses a worldwide system of restaurants, which prepare, package and sell a menu of food items." As each of these fast-food places is obvious to most readers in America, it is also quite interesting that over 100 countries are familiar with these names as well. In fact, segments like KFC were actually introduced in many markets like China before more obvious competitors like McDonalds. Since fast food is generally considered an inelastic, or non-cyclical, good, even during times of economic uncertainty, Yum will prosper. While most of its food is relatively cheap compared to rivals such as Brinker and Darden, consumers will still flock to Yum restaurants in similar volume during any stage of the…

    Are We Taking It Too Far by Blaming Fast Food Restaurant for Obesity?

    Known for ignoring public health concerns and pioneering weapons-grade junk food, this conglomerate 's subsidiaries have most recently given us the cheeseburger-stuffed pizza (Pizza Hut), the Doritos-shelled taco (Taco Bell), and the "Double Down" (KFC) -- a bacon-and-cheese sandwich that replaces bread with slabs of deep-fried chicken. So it should come as no surprise that with the three meals hitting their caloric max-out point, Yum Brands has been leading the effort to…
