Since 2003, the market for hot drinks has recorded a significant drop in sales volumes, due to a transfer of purchases to other products such as fruit juices and other product formulas.
This has forced the industry to put forward further innovation to attract new consumers. These developments of innovative products (pods, fair trade products) were used to reach a broader target and bring about an increase in the value segment of roasted coffee.
The subsidiary of Nestle Nespresso, the creator of the upscale coffee-capsule wished to obtain an exclusive position on a new basis, following the success of its marketing offers. This new parameter was fair trade. While this segment seems to be important, it remains little known by consumers.
To date, only Max Havelaar has successfully established itself as a private label, which has been labeled "fair trade" through adherence to a strict specification. However, more and more brands are trying to create their own internal label which has the direct consequence of confusing the consumer.
To capture consumers concerned with fair trade, should Nespresso develop the AAA (Sustainable Quality Program) or associate with a better known label?
