3. Develop the marketing mix for Beckett
Marketing is an important factor which determines the success of a particular product or
service in the market. It is important to frame a marketing strategy which will make product
desirable among customers. The marketing mix in the context of Beckett organic is as follows-
Product- The product being offered by Beckett organic is organic vegetables. The
offering is right in the context of market as there is a rapidly increasing health consciousness of
people for their lifestyle. However Beckett organic is facing issues of lower turnover and profit
margin. For resolving this issue it should focus on segmenting its customers and setting a right
price in a price-sensitive market. This will enable its product to become successful in market.
Price- The price of organic vegetables of Beckett organic is comparatively more than
conventional vegetables. This makes it look less attractive for the customers. Beckett organic
should focus on setting a lower price than the conventional vegetables so that customers can be
targeted. Also, it can use schemes like discount offers on bulk purchases, cash discount which
will help it in increasing sales (Järvinen and Taiminen, 2016).
Place- The market of U.K. has enough potential for organic vegetables. It is witnessing
rapid growth of health-conscious customers who wish to purchase them. However, Beckett
organic is facing issues of not being able to attract customers of nearby localities. Thus, it should
increase its base in the target market of areas nearby and must also focus on expansion of
business in other areas after finding out the viability. It should also concentrate on increasing
supplies to restaurants and hotels which would enable it to reach the turnover levels required to
manage a sustainable level of profit.
Promotion- Beckett organic is lacking in its promotion strategies which are extremely
essential for increasing sales in the market. The organisation should concentrate on attractive
schemes and offers which can bring customers towards purchasing the product. It can lower its
price than the other organic vegetable retailers to evade competition. Also it can concentrate on
offering discount and other attractive schemes. It can use advertisement techniques by
advertising in newspapers to catch the attention of customers. Also it can use modern techniques
like online promotion and increasing its social media presence to connect with new generation of
clients. It can issue coupons for purchase and can keep a small reward for it which will increase
sales. Also it can provide loyalty benefits to its loyal customer base which will help in
facilitating repeated sale of organic vegetables (Katsikeas and et.al., 2016).

all the four parameters of marketing mix to increase its presence in market and to restructure its
business. It can concentrate on providing quality organic vegetables, setting the right price for
