Competitive pricing strategy has enabled Ding The Recipe to restructure to stay strong in brand building, quality uncompromised at an affordable price. As such, it is envisaged that sales average/projection would not be less than 12 jars average per day per store level, if ranged. Hurdle rate would improve over time.

Brand Segmentation

Ding Brand - 65% (mid to high-end market)
Private Label - 35% (top-end market)

Market segmentation

No age limitation or group (suitability depend on product nature i.e. heat level, spiciness).

Foodies, culinary experts and time-poor consumers would love it - income stream, not a determining factor.

Ethnic diversity and demography - improving with education and taste sampling.
