[...] We can therefore, from the three elements of the mix, describe and analyze the strategy and business model of Nespresso. The group's strategy is to differentiate their product offerings to customers, their prices and the distribution means that they are to put in place to market their brand. • Regarding the product, Nestlé wanted to combine an integrated system to the edge. A careful selection of the best coffee is made to produce high quality and provide the best to meet the customer needs. [...]

[...] However, the premium positioning of Nespresso allows consolidating its position on the market as the leader because of the feedback from consumers, that "Nespresso coffee is good." The premium coffee market does not have many protagonists, but the group remains as the leader because of the pricing strategy, it has reduced the prices of machines in order to attract a younger audience as well as not equipped customers while maintaining the price of the capsules.
