Q7 CASE STUDY: VEGAN CAFÉ
Veganism is becoming increasingly popular. The term “vegan” was coined in 1944 by a small group
of vegetarians who broke away from the Leicester Vegetarian Society in England to form the Vegan
Society. They chose not to consume dairy, eggs, or any other products of animal origin, in addition to
refraining from meat, as do vegetarians.
The term “vegan” was chosen by combining the first and last letters of “vegetarian.” Veganism is
currently defined as a way of living that attempts to exclude all forms of animal exploitation and cruelty,
be it from food, clothing, or any other purpose.
Vegans generally choose to avoid animal products for one or more of the following reasons:
 Ethics: Vegans strongly believe that all creatures have the right to life and freedom. They are also
opposed to the psychological and physical stress that animals may endure as a result of modern
farming practices.
 Health: Some people choose veganism for its potential health effects in terms of avoiding heart
disease, type 2 diabetes, cancer, Alzheimer’s disease and so on; or to lower body weight and body
mass index (BMI).
 Environment: People may also choose to avoid animal products because of the environmental impact
of animal agriculture. A 2010 United Nations (UN) report argued that these products generally
require more resources and cause higher greenhouse gas emissions than plant-based options.
Assume that a follower of Vegan lifestyle and philosophy intends to open up a Vegan food café for
youngsters following this type of philosophy, in Mumbai city.
In light of the above case answer the below mentioned questions:
(a) Discuss the social and personal factors that would affect consumer behavior of the 5.5
above mentioned target market towards this Vegan food café.
(b) Considering the positioning theory, design the positioning strategy for this Vegan food café. 5.5
