What Made this Case Study Unique

The Challenge

Entering new markets

The growing preference for instant coffee, driven by the need for convenience, has affected Leo Coffee’s usual market, which is known for its skill in traditional filter coffee. In addition, there are green shoots of growth in Ground Coffee in the non-traditional markets in the rest of India. The objective was to scale up Leo Coffee’s footprint in the instant coffee category to help get a foothold in these markets as well as ride the wave of growing ground coffee use in these markets.

Increased CompetitioN

The coffee landscape was getting saturated with new entrants, intensifying competition. With the rise of coffee chains, specialty shops, and independent roasters, consumers were now presented with a multitude of choices, making it important for older players like Leo Coffee to stand out.

Marketing and Branding

Leo Coffee’s marketing strategies needed to align with contemporary consumer expectations. Leo Coffee recognised the need to leverage online platforms to actively connect with its intended audience. This, in turn, intended to increase the level of brand recall among consumers.
