秋預購參一「咖」 星巴克搶月餅商機
2010/8/4
中秋節是國人三大節慶之一,也是與家人及三五好友團聚的日子,除了賞月、烤肉外,應景的月餅可不能少。統一星巴克今(3)天推出兩款新月餅,首度採用異國風味的酒品,並結合咖啡香,激盪出濃郁口感;業者表示,去(98)年該店月餅禮盒銷量為20萬盒,預估今(99)年會有1成的成長。
中秋節商機大,不只超商搶,傳統蛋糕店爭,精品咖啡店也要來參一「咖」。根據市場銷售分析,中秋節企業送禮與個人消費比例是7比3,其中又以複合式禮盒最受到消費者青睞,售價則多落在350~600元之間。而統一星巴克今年共推出9款禮盒,價位則是360~1,280元不等。
統一星巴克主打的兩款全新口味,其中「波爾多紅莓摩卡」月餅,內餡以苦甜黑巧克力與星巴克咖啡調製而成,再佐以波爾多紅酒於覆盆莓果餡中;而另一款「君度香橙紅茶」月餅,先調入君度橙酒,之後再拌入豆沙餡,中西食材融合成微妙風味。
統一星巴克行銷經理仲崇經表示,去年中秋禮盒總銷售量達20萬盒,其中680元的中型禮盒賣的最好,而去年首次推出的小包裝、低價禮盒,創下2萬盒的好成績,今年預計成長50%;整體來看,今年銷量目標成長10%,等於要賣出22萬盒,業績可望破億元。
仲崇經並指出,統一星巴克今年上半年業績較去年同期成長1成,而獲利年增率更高達3成,主要動力來自於新開發的商品,像是限定早餐時段推出的香草密斯朵,就為店內帶來不少新來客,同時也拉抬該時段業績至少成長3成。
統一星巴克中秋節禮盒預購即日起跑,門市取貨服務則從8月16日開始,9月12日前預購者有9折優惠。訂貨後4天即可取貨,並提供A店訂貨,B店取貨的服務。

飲料、包材正熱 黑松、宏全吃香
【記者林燦澤/台北報導】
台股周一價量齊揚,傳產類股也有亮麗表現,食品類股由於原物料價格上揚以及中元節商機題材,加以佳格(1227)周一除權息亮麗行情帶動持續帶量上攻,類股指數突破800點關卡,上漲9.62點(漲幅 1.21%),由於飲料熱賣帶動飲料產品出貨成長及包裝材料商機,法人建議可以留意黑松(1234)、宏全(9939)等個股連結之權證。
在飲料產品商機方面,老牌飲料公司黑松上半年營收20億元,較去年同期成長12%,內部預估上半年獲利,將維持去年同期的水準;除此之外,在坐擁龐大台北市精華區土地資產的想像空間下,未來若能有效開發,獲利前景相當值得期待。
法人指出,積極搶攻包裝材料商機的宏全國際,8月2、3日舉行海外說明會,該公司的大陸廣東清新廠本月量產,並與可口可樂、百事可樂等大廠,聯手搶進飲料商機,該公司今年集團塑蓋的產量,由目前的120億個,逐步增至148至151億個,可望躋身為亞洲的「塑蓋王」。
宏全自結上半年集團營收為60.75億元、年增率30%,創下歷史新高,大陸廠上半年營收25億元,年增率36%;台灣廠上半年營收29億元,年增率17%;東南亞廠上半年營收7億元,年增率77%,法人概估宏全上半年稅前盈餘近7億元,每股稅前盈餘約為2.9至3元,且在上海世博預計7,000萬人參觀效應帶動下,預估今年EPS達5.27元。
環保意識 有機啤酒漸流行
更新日期:2010/08/03 10:09
(中央社記者顏伶如波特蘭2日專電)隨著環保意識抬頭,越來越多消費者喜歡選購有機蔬果或肉品,現在連有機啤酒也逐漸普遍。釀造業者表示,有機麥芽成本高是最大考驗,若市場需求大刺激供給,就可降低價格。
對於講究健康、注重環保的現代人來說,沒有農藥、殺蟲劑或化學肥料的有機食品,成為選購日常飲食食材的重要項目。有機水果、蔬菜或肉品,目前在一般美國超市都很容易買到,而有機啤酒則是市場潛力無窮。
從2005年起,每年夏天在波特蘭舉辦的「北美有機啤酒釀造業者節慶」(North American OrganicBrewers Festival),今年已經進入第6屆。這場免費參加的年度盛會,不但成為有機啤酒釀造業者拓展業績的重要舞台,也是波特蘭地區民眾闔家出遊消磨夏日時光的活動。
這項慶典在波特蘭地區的公園舉行,現場有音樂演奏,營造出輕鬆歡樂的夏日節慶氣氛。年滿21歲,達到合法飲酒年齡的民眾,在入場處檢查身分證件後,就可戴上工作人員發的彩色手環,並以6美元購買1個環保杯。拿著這個杯子,可以前往每個釀酒業者的攤位免費試喝。
已連續6年參加這項活動的波特蘭當地有機啤酒釀造業者馬丁(Marc C. Martin)指出,現代人對於環保越來越重視,使得有機啤酒也越來越普遍,過去幾年來已經看到大幅成長。他指出,自從2005年活動開辦,他的業績到現在成長幅度超過200%。
談到有機啤酒與一般啤酒的差別,馬丁指出,如果把有機啤酒跟一般啤酒放在一起比較,喝起來並不會注意到味道有什麼不同,而消費者之所以選擇有機啤酒,最主要原因還是環保意識。
釀造有機啤酒不能使用殺蟲劑或一般商業肥料,所有肥料都是取自於動物。由於不能使用殺蟲劑,因此有機啤酒釀造用的麥芽,都必須生長在冬季氣溫酷寒地帶,才能靠著低溫把大麥上的害蟲凍死。
馬丁分析,符合這樣地理、氣候條件的有機麥芽培養農場並不多,種植成本相對也較高,對於有機啤酒釀造業者來說,目前面臨的最大考驗就是如何取得足夠的有機麥芽。
但他也樂觀的表示,波特蘭、西雅圖以及美國瀕臨太平洋的西北岸一帶,民眾環保意識極高,有機啤酒已越來越流行,預計未來市場需求將持續增加,帶動更多農民願意種植有機穀類,供給量提升將使得成本下降,也會有更多人願意投入有機啤酒釀造。
前來參加這項慶典的民眾威蘭杜爾夫(AaronWellendorf)表示,他是有機啤酒的愛好者,因為有機啤酒不但好喝,更重要的是沒有殺蟲劑,可以喝得安心。990802(中央社記者顏伶如攝)
飲料巨頭“酸溜溜”
2010年07月30日05:34浙江線上-錢江晚報
清朝郝懿行寫的《都門竹枝詞》裡寫道“銅碗聲聲街裡喚,一甌冰水和梅湯”,當時老北京街頭流行著酸梅湯。同時,酸梅湯也一直是老杭州人十分喜愛的夏季納涼飲品。
飲料也玩復古情節。今年,有一股能勾起許多人兒時記憶的酸梅湯回來了,在飲品市場上,今夏刮起酸梅湯旋風。老字型大小也好,地方品牌也好,飲料巨頭紛紛“酸”了起來,上演了一場酸梅湯PK戰。在杭城的一些超市和餐館,在網店裡,酸梅湯都是位居銷售榜前列。
各路酸梅湯誰為英雄
去年,超市里還到處都是“檸檬C”;而今年,超市飲品櫃檯那兒大聲吆喝著“酸梅湯”。九龍齋、信遠齋、康師傅、天喔茶莊……酸梅湯市場就在一個多月的時間裡迅速擴容。
記者昨天在世紀聯華超市華商店裡看到,很多品牌的飲料都在醒目位置擺開了陣勢,大搞促銷。在一樓走道人流量最大的區域,康師傅今年的新品“酸梅 湯”擺滿了貨架,促銷員不停地在做著推銷。邊上一位經常逛超市的大姐告訴記者:“今年酸梅湯最紅了,前段時間,這個位置是九龍齋酸梅湯,現在又換成康師傅 了。”
雖然這些品牌的酸梅湯才剛亮相,但市場銷售卻很火。“酸梅湯可以說是我們這兩周以來飲料銷售的亞軍。”體育場一家小店老闆說,他也是6月底才進 的,沒想到賣得這麼好。而在附近另一家小店裡,幾個小姑娘在詢問有沒有康師傅的酸梅湯,老闆有點惋惜地搖搖頭:“今天沒貨啊,進不到貨啊。”
蠻有意思,像一場南慕容北喬峰的英雄大戰,今年爭奪酸梅湯市場的有浙江本地企業,如康師傅;也有前來爭奪杭州市場的北方企業,如九龍齋、信遠齋,都來自北京。
記者在超市飲料專區看到,果汁飲料、碳酸飲料和維C飲料環繞中,“酸梅湯”佔據了不小的位置,九龍齋、康師傅、天喔茶莊、統一等多個品牌開始搶 奪這個新市場。“現在北方區域的飲品紛紛醞釀著南下,九龍齋已經開始打響全國銷售戰,這就和以前王老吉涼茶北上一樣。”一位業內人士表示。
酸梅湯網路爭霸硝煙起
“今年好像一古腦兒大家都趕時髦得賣起了酸梅湯。”杭州的李小姐說。昨天剛從超市出來選了兩瓶不同牌子的酸梅湯,李小姐晚上一上網,發現淘寶網上也有一場酸梅湯大戰。於是她在一家武漢賣家的網店裡拍了一瓶酸梅膏,享受自製酸梅湯的味道。
除了實體市場,另一場酸梅湯的大比武,則在網路上硝煙正濃,而且,聲勢和規模要更大、品牌多,銷量更是遍佈全國。看你,老北京特產、武漢恒記、上海正廣和……大打著消暑就喝“酸梅湯”的廣告。
記者在淘寶網上輸入“酸梅湯”,跳出了近900件商品。“去年哪有那麼多的。”經常網購零食的KITTY說。而今年,記者在網上看到,有京城老 字型大小信遠齋酸梅湯、九龍齋酸梅湯、臺灣風味津兆尹酸梅湯、武漢百年秘方青菱酸梅膏、果多(原正廣和)酸梅湯……粗略一數,就有幾十家“酸梅湯”。有的是開 罐即可飲用的,也有的是需要進行勾兌的,還有沖泡型酸梅粉。最便宜的價格在1元多一袋,價格貴的則在30元左右一瓶。
不少網店在一個月裡的銷量都突破了200多件。最便宜的果多酸梅湯,不少買家都是五六十包的買,在一家三鑽的網店裡,記者看到30天內,這袋售價1.15元的酸梅湯就有13600多件的交易量。
Cargill to supply Unilever’s sustainable palm oil
- § August 3, 2010
- § Nicole Eckersley
Edible oils giant Cargill has entered into a supply agreement to provide Unilever’s European operations with 10,000 tonnes of sustainable palm oil.
Cargill will provide the company with segregated oil, certified by the Round Table for Sustainable Palm Oil (RSPO), the production and supply chain of which is entirely separate from other non-sustainable products.
Cargill said its new offering will strengthen its ability to provide sustainable palm oil products to meet customers’ requirements and will complement its existing certified RSPO Mass Balance palm oil offering.
“Our agreement with Unilever is the result of both companies’ strong commitment to supporting responsible supply chains”, said Paul Naar, head of Cargill’s food business in Europe. “As the demand for certified sustainable palm oil continues to grow, we are combining our supply chain expertise and industry knowledge to provide customers with choices to meet their particular requirements. We are very pleased to partner with Unilever and see this as a big step forward in the drive towards palm oil sustainability.”
“Unilever is ahead of plan to achieving 100 percent sustainable palm oil by 2015 with over 35 percent already being RSPO certified this year”, said Marc Engel, Chief Procurement Officer at Unilever. “Today’s announcement marks another important milestone in our journey to 100 percent sustainable palm oil, as Cargill’s physically segregated certified oil will be delivered in our factories and used in our products. We are very pleased that Cargill, as one of our strategic partners, is sharing our vision on sustainable palm oil and enabling this for us.”
Cargill’s offering of fully segregated refined palm oil follows the RSPO certification of the company’s European and Malaysian oil refineries. PT. Hindoli in Sumatra, Indonesia received its RSPO certification in February 2009 and Cargill is currently working to certify its other palm plantation in Indonesia, Harapan Sawit Lestari.
Cargill said that it fully supports the RSPO process to promote the growth and use of sustainable palm oil throughout the supply chain. The company announced that it has set a goal of buying 60 per cent of its total crude palm oil from RSPO members by the end of 2010. Cargill also said they are encouraging their third-party suppliers to join RSPO and attain certification, with an eventual goal of a 100 per cent RSPO certified supply chain.
The palm oil industry has suffered a serious public relations blow in recent months, with campaigns by a wide variety of green groups criticising the destruction of rainforests and animal habitats by palm oil producers.
Campaign group Rainforest Action Network welcomed the move by Cargill, and expressed hope that the move would lead to further steps in creating a sustainable palm oil industry.
“We’re encouraged to see that Cargill and Unilever are teaming up to show the industry that certified sustainable palm can be achieved,” said Leila Salazar-Lopez, Rainforest Agribusiness Campaign Director. “Cargill is showing that it is capable of providing fully traceable palm oil from RSPO certified sources and Unilever is showing that customers will follow through on their commitments to purchase palm oil at a higher cost, if assured that it is certified sustainable by the RSPO. We remain concerned, however, that the RSPO’s standards are not yet strong enough to assure customers that this palm oil is entirely free from forest destruction or other environmental damage.”
“We encourage Cargill to clean up its entire supply chain, and to make certified segregated palm oil available to all of their customers, particularly those in the U.S. This is particularly important because today’s Unilever commitment accounts for only 10,000 metric tones, a tiny percentage of the total volumes of palm oil that Cargill trades every year.”
Stevia firm PureCircle launches consumer campaign
- August 4, 2010
- source: just-food
Stevia supplier PureCircle yesterday (3 August) launched a global campaign in a bid to boost awareness of the natural sweetener among consumers.
The UK-listed group said a “trust mark” entitled “Stevia by PureCircle” would be carried on the packaging of “leading manufacturers around the world”.
The print, digital and TV campaign will start next month alongside other co-marketing activities already in place.
Products with the message “naturally sweetened with stevia by PureCircle”, including True Lemonade powdered beverages, are launching in the US and Latin America, the stevia firm said.
“Our new trust mark campaign, in partnership with our customers, will play a critical role in insuring that stevia maintains a place firmly among other natural ingredients that consumers love and trust,” Jason Hecker, vice president of global marketing at PureCircle, said.
Meanwhile, in a separate announcement, PureCircle said it had started successfully processing leaf sourced from Kenya and Paraguay at its stevia extract facilities in China.
PureCircle also said it had struck a deal to source stevia leaf from S&W Seed Co. and its subsidiary, based in Five Points, California.
The company said the agreement would bring “large-scale stevia cultivation to the US” and was “another milestone in PureCircle’s worldwide expansion of stevia as a large volume commodity crop”.
PureCircle CEO and MD Magomet Malsagov said: “This is an important series of announcements for our stevia supply chain. Our proprietary leaf from Kenya and Paraguay is performing well and underpins our plans to start building extraction capacity in Africa and South America.”
