Kellogg is the global leader in breakfast cereals with an enviable portfolio of brands. The company, however, has faced some challenges in 2010/2011 with a series of recalls and supply disruptions. These incidents have forced Kellogg to re-evaluate its cost-cutting strategy. The company, however, still faces rising input costs as well as a highly competitive packaged food retail channel as both producers and retailers attempt to offer cashstrapped consumers good value.

COMPETITIVE POSITIONING
B C
A: Strong market performance Kellogg sales are underpinned by a strong performance in North American breakfast cereals and the acquisition of United Bakers Group in Russia giving it the Yantar brand in biscuits.
B: Recession Kellogg's performance in the recessionary year of 2009 is underpinned by various trends, such as the 'eatin' trend, consumers' tendency to eat breakfast at home and 'downtrading' benefiting the company. Kellogg's performance is especially boosted by some emerging markets, such as Brazil, Mexico and Russia.
C: Price wars Contraction in US breakfast cereals and falling sales for Kellogg in Western Europe conspire to force the company's rate of growth below the global market for packaged food. Despite a product recall in the year Kellogg is able to marginally increase its market share of breakfast cereals in the US market.

Consider hot cereals Hot cereals is set to post strong growth led by India. Kellogg remains weak in the Indian market and should focus here for future acquisitions. It has also failed to launch a product in this category in the UK where it could capitalise on its existing distribution network to drive sales. The company's lack of new product development here suggests a failure to keep abreast of consumer trends in key markets. Consider new launch in children's breakfast cereals The opportunities in children's breakfast cereals are largely limited to the emerging markets given parental concern in the West over sugar content and nutritional value. Merely adding vitamins may not be sufficient to overcome parents scepticism of brands such as Frosted Flakes. Kellogg should consider launching a new children's breakfast cereal which from the outset meets the demands of both taste and nutrition clearly differentiating the new product from its other brands. This breakfast cereal could target a more affluent target market.
