Weakness

Relatively small consumer group• The investigation collected samples from first-tier cities and of the same age distribution, thus the data showcases the consumers’ preference only towards brands. According to the chart, NIVEA’s consumer group is minor than that of Da bao. [According to the data of Consumers Attitude in China, Da bao holds a lion’s share. ]Relatively low Cost Effectiveness• Both targeting at low-end market, as well as sharing similar product functions, the average price of NIVEA is three times higher than that of Da bao. Lack of product concept • NIVEA’s product ranges lack specific concept, instead, the ranges are merely named after their functions, such as “oil control” & ”multi protection”. Therefore, it is hard for consumers to portrait certain images.

SIS Why Nivea:

According to gf official website, gf provides beauty products for white-collar workers while DIESEL aims at consumers who pursuit a casual style. Contrarily, Nivea, ranking the 2nd, has the similar target consumers as that of DIESEL. Therefore we set Nivea as a competitor of DIESEL and eliminate gf.
