IN T RODU C T ION ‘The percentage of empty shops in the country’s 650 most popular high streets nationally hit 14.2% in December. That is roughly 35,500 vacant properties.’

(Petrou, 2013: Online)

This report aims to raise awareness of the current number of empty shops on the high streets of British cities, and specifically Nottingham which ‘has more vacant shop space than any other large centre in the UK, the vacancy rate increased over 12 months from 23.1% to 30.6%.’ (BBC, 2012: Online). This report will look into the effect these empty, sometimes derelict, shops are having on the streets and the ways in which these spaces could be used for another purpose, in the hope of bringing life to the high streets to offer consumers not just a purchase but an experience. Researching into “Mary Portas’ Pilots”, a scheme that reviews the state of our high streets and city centres it became apparent that, ‘leaving empty shops to rot is a wasted economic opportunity that spoils the town centre.’ (Baker, 2012: Online)

The recent trend and return of pop-up shops has started to offer consumers new and exciting retail experiences. They have ‘evolved from being regarded as a novelty concept to become a retail strategy that enables brands to reach a wider pool of consumers, test the market and generate publicity.’ (WGSN, 2012: Online) Pop-ups come in different forms such as retail, food and hotels which shows how diverse they are. Located in different places, an example of a pop-up restaurant that combines food, fashion, performance and social media is ‘The lab, By Taste’ which took place over three days in April 2013 and was held in Tobacco Docks, London. Presented by Gizzi Erskine and other top chefs, there was ‘an interactive experience of master classes, tutorials and live entertainment.’ (Tastefestivals, 2013: Online) Leading to the idea that pop-ups are essentially an event that offer consumers a new experience. Pop-ups can be located in empty shops which provide inexpensive, short term lets, ideal for this retail structure.

To further see the effects empty shops are having on the public an online survey was carried out, (see appendix 18.3) asking 61 people ‘if they noticed the amount of empty space among the British high street’ with “47” saying yes, “1” no and “14” sometimes. These results are encouraging figures to work from as virtually everyone noticed the issue which proves something needs to done about it. One response from the survey was that empty retail space is, ‘not only depressing to look at but it’s disappointing that so much easily accessible space is going to waste that could be used for something exciting or beneficial.’ Staying on trend, this space could be used to create an exciting pop-up concept that is current in the market. It could change the outlook and visual appearance of the streets in the hope of bringing people together.

Through primary research from the online survey and posters that were distributed around Nottingham Trent University (see appendix 18.3 & 18.4) where students were able to jot down what they would like to see in a pop-up shop, the results showed that 64% of people would like to see a cafe/ restaurant selling food or drink with added health benefits in the form of fresh, locally sourced, top quality or seasonal foods. This is not just a consumer demand but a trend that has been seen in the food industry as the, ‘local and organic agriculture is growing far faster than the food market as a whole.’ (Pollan, 2012: Online)

With this idea of fresh food being taken forward, further research was undertaken in the trend of the food industry and what was culturally taking place. It was apparent there had been a large focus on the trauma of the horsemeat scandal.

‘Regulators found horsemeat in ready-made burgers sold in supermarkets’ (Butler, 2013: Online)

and also in several ready meals that were labelled as beef. This shocked consumers, changed their perceptions and for some their diet. ‘Britons are increasingly turning to vegetarian alternatives amid concerns sparked by the horsemeat scandal, according to food producers.’ (Butler, 2013: Online) Turning to vegan options, there has been a rise in the number of meat-free products sold. Not only this but it is culturally apparent that people are becoming more health conscious and health aware in wanting to know where their food is being sourced from. Mintel suggests there is a move to people ‘buying more locally or online as opposed to larger stores’. Meat is an expensive product and due to the scandal people are now turning away from buying it, substituting it for other options or preparing to compromise with their money and buy quality fresh produce. This report therefore researches into the vegan offering in supermarkets and restaurants to see if there are enough products and places provided. Researching the food outlets of Nottingham it became apparent that the city is clearly lacking places catering for this type of diet, which means there is a gap in the market for an increase of vegan food in Nottingham.

The big idea is therefore to make use of vacant shop space in order to increase the choice of cuisines on the high street. It is an idea that could nationally be applied to any high street or consumer but for the purposes of this report it will be pitched at students living in Nottingham.

March-April Online Survey 60 people aged The survey was sent to consumers of all ages and genders See 18.3 2013 from 18-50 through online platforms such as Email, Facebook and Twitter.

The survey was used in order to get people’s views of the British high street but mainly in Nottingham to see if they noticed the amount of empty space and if they felt something should be done about it. It was also used to ask consumers if they had been to a pop-up shop before, if so where and what type it was. They then suggested what they would like to see in a pop up outlet. The idea behind this was to understand the consumer needs. A good set of feedback was received, helping the direction of the project which led into the vegan concept.

Students at Nottingham Trent University

Posters were stuck up on the walls inside buildings of Nottingham Trent University. The poster asked one question ‘what would you like to see in a pop-up shop?’ The purpose of the poster was to get student feedback of what they would like to see in a pop up shop in Nottingham. Receiving a diverse set of answers which, combined with the online survey, proved to be a café/ restaurant/ deli.

The manager of Alley cafe, a vegan/ vegetarian restaurant in Nottingham was inteviewed through a set of questions.

The purpose of the interview was to find out who their main consumers are, the type of food brands they use in-store and if they felt there was space in the market for more vegan cafes to open up. Sadly after visiting the cafe several times to get the results Ben had not completed the questions which meant no results were given back.

Phil Hather

Focusing on the idea of fresh food and the food industry, 18.7 further research took place into a vegan lifestyle. Phil is a vegan and the purpose of emailing him was to find out his reasons for becoming vegan, if he feels there are enough food brands and cafes/ restaurants that cater for his diet. His response was interesting in that he spoke about the aspects of not just a vegan diet but the effect it has on everyday products such as glue. When listing vegan restaurants he knew, he stated more vegetarian ones that catered for a vegan diet suggesting that their needs to be more vegan own cafes/ restaurants.

See 18.9 The purpose of getting in contact with Alpro was to give them an overview of the project, speaking of how they are hypothetically going to be used as a sponsorship to try and engage students with the brand and a vegan diet. Initially using twitter a social media platform, contact through tweets and direct messages took place to try and get in contact with a member of the Alpro marketing team. This was a success and Tanya responded to the twitter actions. She advised to look at their sister brand Provamel as they could potentially give away a free sample of products. After replying to several emails, she then did not get back in contact.

Photos were taken at the northern vegan festival to look at the competitors branding. It became clear through the lens that vegan branding was poor unless it was a large named brand such as Provamel and Frys.

2.1 SECONDARY RESEARCH The initial point of this research was to look at the impact of empty shop space in Britain in order to see how this space could be used for another purpose. Trends in retail, culture and consumer needs were explored for opportunities and possibilities for applying to the empty spaces of Nottingham. Current newspaper articles were used to research and see the changes in the number of empty shops as well as the trends that were, and still are, happening within the high street, with a large focus on Mary Portas’ Pilots. Furthering this research took place on trend websites such as Stylus and WGSN for the latest news.

From this it became apparent that there was a return in the trend of pop-up shops and how they are an opportunity for businesses to use empty shops on a pop-up basis.

Primary research then helped to define what it is students of Nottingham would like to see in a pop-up shop.

With the majority of responses being food or drink, secondary research took place in this sector looking at information provided from news and food websites. Focusing on the impact of the horsemeat scandal research showed that many consumers were turning to a vegetarian/vegan diet.

T HE BRI T I SH HIGH ST RE ET

The high streets in the UK are not what they used to be due to the impact of the recession with consumers spending less and ‘one in six shops standing empty compared with just one in twenty before the start of recession.’ (WGSN, 2013: Online) Many large named businesses such as Blockbusters and HMV shut down their stores across the UK as they fell into administration.

However new independents are not coming into the market and the mood of the community is changing as consumers are beginning to lose faith in the British high street. This mood needs to lightened. However, the failure of these shops is down to the fact that more consumers are turning to online and mobile retailing. ‘Consumers are shopping with their mobiles than ever before’ (Huffington Post, 2013: Online) and downloading from websites such as Netflix and iTunes because they offer more than bricks and mortar can do and at a quicker pace. Online shopping is becoming more dominant, retailers are facing the challenge of staying ahead in a competitive market to get consumers to still shop in store. Therefore stores need to up their game and begin to offer consumers an experience they cannot get anywhere else. Retailers must respond quickly and adapt to the changing consumer. As shopping habits are changing retailing will need to change with it. The future of retail and the role of shops are ‘less likely to be about in-store transactions and more about how an experience can drive sales.’ (Stylus future

stores, 2012: Online)

Focusing solely on Nottingham and its number of vacant shops which the council aimed to cut by two-thirds in November 2012 further research was undertaken in the form of an online survey to see student residents’ opinions of these empty shops. People living in Nottingham described the problem as ‘towns look awfully sad and depressed’ and ‘destroying local communities’. (See appendix 18.3) Not realising the effect it has on people, a solution needs to be addressed, whereby Nottingham can become more attractive to ensure that locals and visitors keep coming back instead of turning away. The high street needs to become a place to merge daytime and evening activities to create a social hub, allowing large named retailers to mix with small ones. This is what residents want with one stating that ‘city centres lack a mixture of independent and high street stores, too many high street stores have no individuality.’ Jeff Allen the chairman of Nottingham Business states the most important thing is to ‘ensure that the city centre is somewhere that people want to visit, spend time and in return to again and again.’

Fig 6, Mary Portas, 2012.

This is happening in other cities and has been addressed by Mary Portas along with the Local Government Minister who launched a competition which chose twelve towns to become ‘Portas’ ‘Pilots’. The winners benefited from a share of £1million to help their unused high streets by changing what went wrong and aiming to deliver something new. A high street should be a ‘social place that makes creative use of public spaces and with a vibrant evening economy.’ (Gov, 2013: Online) A place where people can engage with the community and shopping is not the focus but a mix of activities. To make this happen high streets need to experiment and try new things, particularity Nottingham. One thing Portas’ Pilots introduced was ‘love your local market’ which aims to help new market traders starting up. There are indoor and outdoor markets set up in order to give an opportunity for new businesses to step onto the business ladder.

Another proposition put forward was ‘community groups should be able to use vacant spaces and have the right to trade in empty property.’ (Portas, 2011: Online) Using this space creatively to ensure empty properties remain a valuable part of the high street and not a blemish on it. A way to give people the opportunity to experiment, promote and collaborate is also a key idea, as well as generating publicity and offering consumers a new experience.

16

‘High streets need to be mixed in use they should house elder-care centres and medical clinics, government bureaus helping the public and pop-up music or art venues. A vibrant high street must be more than a place in which to shop.’

(Minton and Skelton, 2013: Online)

A way in which the high street has offered this and used the empty space to its advantage is with the use of pop-up shops. People are coming up with business ideas and bringing them to life to reinvent the high street making it a place that people want to be in. This theory needs to be adapted to the streets of Nottingham so that consumers can begin to love their city again.

POP U P SHOP S

A Pop-up shop can also be known as pop-up retail and is a store that appears spontaneously and stays open for a short length of time to take advantage of a current trend or seasonal product which quickly draws in consumers. ‘Pop-up stores remain an invaluable fast-reaction weapon in the battle for promotional exposure and sales uplift, capable of providing a major brand boost exactly when and where it’s needed.’ (Stylus new pop-ups: 2011: Online) Big named retailers such as Selfridges incorporate pop-ups into their main stores to promote current fashion and cultural trends. One of their latest was focused on David Bowie where Selfridges in collaboration with the Victoria and Albert Museum decided to sell clothes and beauty products to celebrate the famous musician.

Selfridges included designers such as Alexander MQueen to find looks that reflected Bowie’s style and teamed up with Illamasqua whose bright makeup sits comfortably with Bowie’s aesthetic to offer shoppers daily makeovers. An experience that customers will not get every day, the pop-up is individual and memorable.

Pop-ups are profile raising concepts that allow room for experimentation ‘taking the temporary store beyond shopping and offering customers a complete lifestyle experience’.

(WGSN the power of pop-ups, 2013: Online) They are inventive with where and how they locate themselves. They can be found in shopping malls, random spaces and most importantly in redundant empty spaces. This brings new business on to the high street with the hope of making it the hub of the community and something the local people will be proud of.

‘In our ideal world you’d find small businesses filling empty shops on a pop-up basis, working with other start-ups to offer the British consumer a different shopping experience – and the opportunity to support British enterprise.’

(Minton, A., and Skelton. D., 2013: Online)

An example of a pop-up that is a social place combining retail and food is Boxpark in Shoreditch, London. Located in a creative empty space it is the world’s first pop-up mall that became permanent. A quirky and alternative place to shop and dine that is not the high street. Built from shipping containers and spread over two levels, Boxpark offers an array of brands from fashion and lifestyle to food and drink. This innovative mall offers rent to high name brands such as Nike but also the opportunity for smaller brands that are not yet able to afford the high street at this moment in time, or their creative flair does not sit well with what is on trend at current. For the brands located there it is a low cost solution to gain awareness, test the market and reach a wider pool of consumers. At the same time Boxpark offers shoppers a new and unique shopping experience.

20

Fig 9, Boxpark, 2012.

A review posted on Trip Advisor in 2012 said, ‘Boxpark is a Retail Revolution, while the rest of the retail world sits on its backside waiting for the world to turn the guys at Boxpark have really thought about their consumers lifestyle and what makes them tick.

This is a concept that will go far and is a complete change from the boring mass produced retail and food experiences we all have to suffer.’

21

Pop-ups have previously been seen on the streets of Nottingham, to test the market before committing themselves to a high street store. Here is a case study of Bluebird Tea Co. Bluebird Tea Co. is a fairly young, happiness-spreading, tea-making, independent, caring, exciting + unique little Tea Mixology company on a mission to make people happy with tea.

The business was started by Krisi Smith and her boyfriend. In July 2012 they managed to get a place in Mary Portas’s StartUp Britain campaign, opening their first pop-up shop in Richmond, London, for two weeks. Since then they have opened five more across the UK, ranging from two days to a month.

The idea is therefore to create an on trend pop-up shop and use the vacant premises of Nottingham to occupy it short-term with a business that will boost footfall on the high street and allow the business to test the market. Through responses from residents of Nottingham, the new businesses will be in the food and drink category as they feel this is what is missing from the streets of Nottingham. Stating they want a ‘cute cafe supplying local food’ and ‘a combination of food and products to purchase and a positive atmosphere.’ (See appendix 18.3) Aware that

‘food will be the driver of growth during the recession’ (Channel4, 2012: Online)

this idea was then explored to see if it would work in the market.

“Mary Portas really liked what we did because we were different and the scheme really opened a lot of doors for us. We have met other entrepreneurs and travelled the country visiting festivals and markets and we still haven’t found another company like us in the UK.” “Pop-ups have been around for years but they are only really starting to take off because people are beginning to see that they can work.” (Krisi Smith)

V E GA N ‘With influential figures like former President Bill Clinton announcing his enthusiasm for a vegan diet, and celebs like Justin Timberlake singing “Bring it on down to Veganville,” it would seem that veganism is entering the mainstream.’

(Sareen, 2013: Online)

Researching the food industry it was clear that there was a trend in the increase in the number of people moving to a vegetarian/ vegan diet. The vegan culture stemmed from the hard core punk movement in the late 1970’s and early 1980’s. The subculture straight edge was then formed, a group of individuals that live for individualism and have live-for-the-moment attitudes. Resorting to any form of violence, within their belief they are all for animal rights leading to the idea of a vegan/ vegetarian diet. Against mass consumption and the idea of not being associated with brands and supermarkets they shopped elsewhere. Therefore ‘vegan cooking was punk because it was a rejection of the status quo in favor of doing things the way we believed was right.’ (Cohen, 2011: Online) Punks would make a meal out of nothing, planting a few seeds that would turn into a healthy home grown salad. Vegan punks did not have much money and therefore relied on basic ingredients they could get their hands on. However the idea and perception of vegan has changed, the dishes you can create are now seen in restaurants as a nutritional and enjoyable meal. Vegan has become more renowned and is seen as a healthy diet for individuals to follow.

24

Veganism is the practise of abstaining from the use of animal products in a diet as well as goods. A lot of vegans do not eat meat, fish but also products containing dairy such as eggs. The public interest in vegan is higher than ever before due to the impact of the horsemeat scandal and the fact that more people are wanting to eat ‘healthy’, which results to cutting out some or all meat from a diet. The concept of not eating meat and the fact this is seeen as a healthier option is suggested on the current television advertisement by Quorn. They state that swapping mince beef for quorn mince once a week for four weeks could reduce calorie intake by eight hundred and eight. The horsemeat caused public outrage and their trust in the food industry was damaged.

Horsemeat was found in frozen burgers, meatballs and ready meals such as lasagne.

The horsemeat scandal also caused change in consumer shopping habits as ‘frozen burger sales were down by 43% and frozen ready meals declined by 13%’ (Neville, 2013: Online) causing an increase in sales in meat-free products. More people have begun turning to vegan/ vegetarian brands and products even if they do not class themselves as vegetarians. ‘Only 6% of the UK’s population consider themselves vegetarian and only 1-2% are estimated to have food allergies, the meat-free and free-from food market is expected to grow 44% to around £1.25bn by 2016.’ (Butler, 2013: Online)

25

Faith in supermarket meat is in decline and people are reducing the amount of meat in their diets and replacing it with other options such as plant-based variations which can also ‘reduce their food costs by 10 %.’ (Alpro, 2013: Online)

Turning to plant-based products also leads to several health benefits including reduced obesity, improved diabetes and better heart. This is a vital component to a consumer’s diet and is now one of the most distinctive changes in attitudes towards food in the UK, ‘consumers look to new trends in food, health benefits ranking highly in their purchasing decisions.’ (Stylus Meat the future, 2012: Online) They are increasingly demanding more information on food provenance in wanting to gain health benefits from the products.

Concluding that limiting meat intake and turning to a vegan diet has more benefits than initially thought.

A well suited sponsorship for the pop up vegan cafe would therefore be Alpro, whose brand ethos ‘plant power’ uses beans as its main ingredient in the making of their products. ‘To stand out and thrive in a competitive restaurant scene, leading chefs and restaurants are fine tuning their menus to focus on a single dish or ingredient, making it the hero of the experience.’ (Stylus single dish restaurants, 2012: Online) Using Alpro’s ethos of the plant power and combining it with the concept of a vegan diet which is heavily based on vegetables proves the pop-up vegan cafe will work in the current food industry.

Alpro will be a good sponsorship for the new pop-up vegan cafe because it is already a well-established brand that is familiar among many consumers, not only vegans. They use social media platforms as a way to connect with their consumers and promote their product ranges in the hope of gaining a greater following. This is vital in this current market because, ‘accessing social networks is now the second most popular online activity performed on either a smartphone or a tablet computer, while it is the fifth most popular online activity from a traditional computer’ (Mintel social media & networking, 2012: Online) showing just how popular the use of social media sites are and how every brand needs them.

Alpro recently launched the ‘Deskfest’ competition. The idea was for people to take pictures of their breakfast which is made up of Alpro products. They then tweet the picture using #deskfest. Each day there were five winners which Alpro choose to be the most exciting, creative and visually appealing. The winners received an Alpro Keep Cup which is sent out to them after registering online which instantly draws more people to the website. The overall winner of the competition won a “once in their life” time trip to New York with a friend. Being able to take something away from a brand gives consumers the incentive to go back to it at another time.

Alpro has also teamed up with Zest magazine, the leading healthy lifestyle magazine in order to promote the 2013 ‘Alpro Zest Challenge’. Alpro are offering competitors running the race a free breakfast made using their products. Alpro is an active and successful company that uses many channels to communicate with its consumers. Alpro products will be used in the cafe to promote the brand and to create a menu that provides recipes to suit all tastes as well as having positive health benefits. This is essential in the current food market as there is a demand for ‘food intolerance products, which are associated with health eating, which is on the rise.’

(Stylus world food & technology innovation, 2013: Online)

Replacing meat to create a fulfilling meal with other food substitutes like Alpro such as Linda McCartney is easier than people perceive. A vegan and ex vegan were emailed, (see appendix 18.7 & 18.8) asking if they felt there were enough vegan food brands catering to their diet. The response was, ‘as long as you know what to look for, most supermarkets cater quite well for vegans. There are staples that you can get everywhere (e.g. Lentils & chickpeas) and most major supermarkets also offer vegan meat alternatives.’ This consumer has been a vegan/ vegetarian for all of his life which is why he knows where to look for products. If consumers are not sure of where to look and what to look for, it may be difficult. Therefore it is all about providing people with the simple access to it, so consuming vegan alternatives is not a burden/nuisance. Vegan and the products required need to be made more obvious, just how meat is displayed in supermarkets and restaurants. It should not be something they have to search around for.

TYPES OF RESTAURANTS IN NOTTINGHAM

The rising popularity of veganism can be identified with its increasing availability at mainstream festivals such as Coachella 2013, where it ‘took on some enticing new vegan options this year’ (Brown, 2013: Online) offering food trucks selling different forms of vegan food from Jamaican fried tofu to veggie burgers. Food trucks are a good idea because they do the moving around which sits comfortably with consumer needs especially students as they are mainly perceived to ‘spend most of the day in bed, get up and watch a bit of afternoon TV and spend their evenings drinking’. (McQuaid, 2012: Online) The ex-vegan suggested introducing one as a new vegan restaurant. ‘I think vegan food trucks would be great; they could use social media to track down the best market and head to that area at a set time. I love ethnic vegan food - Indian and Japanese cuisines especially.’ A food truck is primarily a pop-up cafe, offering food that is easily accessible and on the move.

Having the idea of a new food truck restaurant proposed further research of vegan restaurants in Nottingham was explored. Researched showed there was a lack in the number of vegan only restaurants. The high streets only catered for 1 restaurant which is not a lot, especially when there are so many empty shops and a demand at this moment in time for meat-free products.

To keep the high street alive it is important to exploit the areas which cannot provide for a vegan diet online, and utilise the features that it does in a physical space to meet the needs of the changing consumer. Therefore the idea is to offer students of Nottingham a healthy fresh meal increasing the awareness of veganism as a good alternative that can fit seamlessly with their current diet.

TA RGET C ONSUME R The target consumer for the vegan cafe will be students attending and located around Nottingham Trent University. The cafe will offer something that students can involve themselves in for fun which is essential in their current lifestyle. As students try to fulfil their need of boredom, which is most likely done by playing games, sitting on their smart phones or surfing the internet. A new cafe will provide excitement, involvement and a community of people which is most likely going to allow the cafe to gain loyal customers.

The consumers will not necessarily already follow a vegan diet, but instead can apply vegan food to their current one. This is in the hope of increasing the awareness of veganism as a step away from the horsemeat scandal as a healthy and cheap alternative.

Three consumer profiles have been explored into: a meat eater, a vegan and a wheat/ gluten intolerant diet. This is to research and compare the differences between how much each individual spends on a weekly food shop, where they shop, and where they eat out. Research found that each individual shopped around to suit their diet. There is also a ÂŁ30 difference in how much the vegan spends on his food shop compared to the meat and gluten/wheat diet. Proving that turning to a vegan diet allows space for money to be saved which is essential for students. Student Beans has revealed that

34

‘many students have been put off from buying low-cost food after the recent horse meat scandal. Students have rejected meat products on the whole and turned to vegetarianism, which ensures they can have a healthy diet without having to spend a lot of money on goodquality meat.’ (Al-Atassi, 2013: Online)

T H E BIG CREAT I VE I DE A 7.

BR A N D M AT R I X THEME 1

The big creative idea is therefore to design a pop up vegan cafe in sponsorship with Alpro which will be held in an empty space among the high streets of Nottingham.

The name of the vegan caf will be - re: place

The idea behind the name is a play on words. The vegan cafe will be called re: place a cafe that aims to replace empty shop spaces with exciting new retail outlets as well as replacing meat products with vegan friendly substitutes.

In a competitive food environment where there is so much choice available it is difficult to differentiate one food outlet from another. RE: Place however would have a unique tone which is currently on trend and is in consumer demand.

‘Vegan is being embraced as a viable health alternative.

Professional athletes like Venus Williams and Arian Foster have made the switch.’

(Stylus global food & health trends 2013-14, 2013: Online)

Vegan has become more popular than it used to be Vegan is on trend in the current food industry A vegan diet has been linked to several health benefits A vegan diet is more environmentally friendly and cheaper than a meat eating diet Consumers do not have to worry about the horsemeat scandal Pop-ups offer consumers a unique lifestyle experience that they cannot get everyday Pop-ups allow retailers to connect with their customers better Pop-ups create a buzz and increase footfall on the high street which is an identified problem that needed to be changed Using empty space for another purpose will change people’s views on the death of the high street Meal deals and discounts are not enough- you need to engage the consumer ‘Cafes across the globe are morphing into consumer hotspots for work, play and community connections.’ (Stylus café culture,

There is a common misconception that vegan means to deprive oneself of the pleasures of food, and that vegans only eat soy Students are concerned with the cost of food Consumer loyalty means new brands/offerings may find difficulty in gaining customers Consumers may be wary of the location of the pop-up and might not want to go in to a particular store Being a new business, consumers may have little faith in the brand If consumers miss the promotional build up to the pop-up cafe they may miss the opportunity to visit the store as they are only around for a small amount of time. This may anger the consumer as they could feel left out

SW OT 2012: Online)

Locating a new cafe near Nottingham Trent University will provide students with a range of healthy, local food

Raise awareness of the horsemeat scandal Raise awareness of the impact eating meat has on the environment and people’s health Offer consumers with more food choice that they did not know of before Pop-ups can increase brand awareness Allow the cafe to test the market before finding a permanent location Chance to trade on the high street

Competition from vegan restaurants in Nottingham Competition from the student shop, costa, newton and bonnington cafe Students buy Tesco meal deals as there ‘cheap’ There are cheaper, more well-known places for students to eat at in Nottingham Perceptions of vegan food may stay the same if students are not willing to try it

10.1 PLACE Re: place has to be in the right place at the right time as the location of the cafe will need to fit in with the consumer’s current lifestyle. A response from the online survey with regards to what they feel Nottingham is missing was, ‘I think the Nottingham high streets are quite good but things like unique boutiques and nice cafes only seem to reside in the lace market.’ Tackling the issue on the location of nice cafes the new cafe will be located near to Nottingham Trent University. This is to ensure it is within a good distance of students being able to make a purchase at any time of the day. It also needs to be located where it will get enough brand awareness for other consumers passing by so it does not segregate anyone. Therefore re: place will be located on Shakespeare Street. This is two minutes walking distance from Nottingham Trent City campus. Its main threat will be that Tesco is virtually next door and many students shop here and have a loyal connection with it. However having to walk past RE: Place to get to Tesco may also draw consumers in as it is something they have not seen before. Therefore early promotion and the visual appearance of the store will be vital to entice students in.

10.2 PRICE The pricing of the food in re: place is not the main focus of the brand as to where it sits in the market against its competitors. Price will still remain a critical component of any shopping experience due the recession however re: place will compete more on the quality of its products, where they are sourced from and the recipes they can provide focusing on the health benefits they can bring to the consumer. re: place will engage the consumer through the vision and passion of the brand to achieve a certain level of price.

The dishes and products sold will reflect value of that experience.

10.3 PROMOTION (IN-STORE) ‘To pull consumers closer to their brands, a host of food retailers are transforming their stores into educational hubs, offering monitoring, advice and community interaction.’

(Stylus, 2013: Online)

To ensure customers can relate to the cafe, the members of staff will be able to talk to them giving advice and recipe ideas that cater towards a vegan diet, using Alpro products and working without them. To allow consumers to interact, experience and take something away from the cafe certain packaged foods that are on sale will have pull out attachments showing consumers how they can incorporate the product into a recipe which may have been used earlier in-store. Pine and Gilmore (1998) argue that ‘experience design should make a company’s offerings memorable’. The attached pull out recipe is designed in the hope of making a good impact of the brand and what is has to offer to make it more of a memorable experience which will encourage consumers to go back to the cafe.

10.4 PRODUCT

‘Vegetables are also moving to the centre of the plate- the star, rather than merely the accompaniment.’

Technomic (Stylus global food and health trends, 2013: Online)

This positive and boosting trend fits comfortably with re: place’s brand essence because being a vegan only cafe the majority of recipes available will be heavily fruit and vegetable based. The menu will highlight the ways in which ‘plant foods can be every bit as versatile and satisfying as some of the animal proteins we grew up with.’ (Gena, 2013: Online) When consumers are shopping and looking for food they need to focus more on the quality and provenance of a product as opposed to the quantity. More people are focusing on a product being intolerant free in one way or another. Certain consumers feel these free from foods are a natural way of healthy eating and are better than diet fads. A lot of these ‘people are choosing these foods even when they don’t even have a medical problem.’ (Maguire, 2012: Online) Being simply made up of all things natrual these products therefore have strong selling points on their side which is promising for the opening of re: place.

VISUAL OU TC OME S

11. 1 CAFE VISUAL MERCHANDISING Stylus retail review indicates there is a trend for more specialised, small format stores to further enhance consumer experience. The cafe will be designed with a layout that makes wise use of the pop-ups small space.

Re: place will have a small shop alongside the cafe. The store layout will be clear and easy to navigate around with a design that is stripped back and simplistic to bring more energy and colour to the food to ensure the products stand out and allow the consumers to shop with ease and enjoyment. The display of food will be in its natural, fresh state which is an important message the cafe wants to give off.

Aware that technology is entering the market in all directions the cafes interiors will try and steer away from this. Stripping everything back to basics to create a cool atmosphere, the cafes interiors will be raw and rustic creating a sense of nostalgia. More people are turning back to their old ways of food shopping by buying from their local butchers, grocers and food markets creating a sense of community which is what the mood of the cafe will want to provide.

Re: place will have a natural and urban feel using materials such as wood, cast iron and metal for the furniture. A trend that has been seen at Milan design week 2013 where ‘Scandinavian influences have channelled a simple vibe with light untreated wood paired with white.’ (WGSN Milan interiors, 2013: Online) re: place will be a space where interiors do not make the noise but instead the consumers will bring the soul to the cafe to make it a hub of the community. The kitchen will be open and located at the back of the cafe opposite to the diners to encourage them to engage with the chef to create an environment where food and drink turns into more of a performance. It will provide consumers with an endearing smell of cooking.

11. 2 CAFE BRANDING LOGO/ BUSINESS CARD The Northern Vegan festival was attended to see who re: place’s competitors from around the UK would be. (See appendix 18.10) Visiting the festival led to realisation that the majority of their branding was poor and lacked visual stimulation. Branding was uninventive, not brand specific and lacked consistency which does not communicate well to new audiences. This is something that needs to be addressed in order to change the perception of veganism. Using visual language it is important re: place promote and communicate their brand values through its visuals.

A vegan diet consists of all things natural which needs to be transferred into the branding of the cafe to ensure its brand message comes across. Therefore the logo and business card will be clean and simple to create an honest image of the brand. The colours used make a pure and natural palette that enhances a sense of well-being and harmony. The colours will consist of green, white, light grey and black for the text.

MENU The store will have chalkboards on the walls around the cafe with the menu and price list on. The menu will be handwritten in white chalk to create an organic and homely feel. There will also be menus displayed on the cafes tables. The design of this menu will be simplistic, clean and easy to read so that it is in keeping with the design of the cafe.

Playing on the name of the restaurant there will be drinks on the menu that incorporate the same piece of text ‘RE’. For example there will be a drink called ‘re: store’ which is a herbal tea that aims to restore a person back to their normal state due to the help of immune boosting ingredients.

Using the finest locally sourced ingredients the menu will have a minimal selection to choose from. Consumers are likely to think that more choice is a benefit as there is more freedom for decision-making. However Graves suggest that, ‘we are more likely to buy when the range is smaller, because one option is more distinctly identifiable as meeting our needs.’ (Graves, 2010: p.29) Having a smaller range available will make it easier for the consumer to decide what they want which Graves suggests makes ‘people feel more satisfied.’

PACKAGING The packaging will have a simple and neat design intended to target not only vegans, but anyone who is in the mood for a healthy meal. re: place will have a small shop selling products that have been used in the cafes recipes. The food sold in the cafes shop will be packaged in brown paper bags which are sustainable, environmentally friendly and can be re: used. This is in-keeping with re: place’s brand ethos of raw and un-touched.

Diet is becoming an important aspect of a consumer’s lifestyle, ‘80% of students said they look at nutritional information on food they buy’ (Al-Atassi, 2013: Online)

as they focus on the nutrition of a product which has ‘led to an increase in nutrition labelling.’ (Shine, 1997: pp. 283-289) Students also said ‘they were more disturbed by the false advertising on the packaging of beef goods, as it made them distrust the rest of the contents as well.’ (Al-Atassi, 2013: Online) Therefore the packaging of the food sold in re: place will be clear and to the point to ensure consumers get the information they want from it. The sleek and smooth design provides appearance and sets the brand apart from other overfilled packaging in supermarkets.

ONLINE PRESENCE By 2025 it is critical that ‘all retailers operate a cross-channel presence.’ (Oracle, 2011: Online) It helps retailers build a strong awareness and reputation allowing them to extend their relationship with their consumer in order to get a strong loyal following. Giving the brand a unique voice the content used online will be information that will engage and interest the users containing important news and dates.

The design of the physical store needs to be applied and constructed to their online sites to provide the same experience, value and services both online and offline. The website and social media presence will be designed like the rest of the shops branding which is raw, clean and simple. Using an easy to read font will allow navigation to flow around the different pages. Similar imagery will be used throughout all of the branding to ensure that it is visually coherent.

Get exctied! A new pop-up vegan cafe is coming to Nottingham, UK

12. 1 PRIOR TO THE EVENT

Fig 34, RE: Place twitter mockup, 2013.

Information about re: place and the arrival of it coming to Nottingham will need early promotion and communication through a message saying how something new and different is being offered but for a limited time only. The cafe will be promoted offline through guerrilla marketing which is defined as ‘an advertising strategy that focuses on low-cost unconventional marketing tactics that yield maximum results’. (Levinson, 2013: Online) Taking the consumer by surprise it will create a community of people around the popup shop and be a way in which people can connect together and have something to talk about, bringing people onto the high street which is an aim of this project. There will be branded stickers stuck up around Nottingham three weeks prior to the pop-up cafe coming to create word of mouth and get the brand noticed. The stickers will act as teaser to give consumers a taste of what is coming but not the whole concept.

There will be some use of print to advertise the cafe and that will be in the form of A2 posters. Targeting students they will get pinned on walls around Nottingham Trent University in places such as such the student shop, gym and Waverley. These are locations where students are most likely to acknowledge the posters. There will also be smaller A6 posters in plastic frames on desks around the library. A large majority of students spend most of their time there so having a poster eye level to them working means they cannot be missed.

Information regarding the cafe coming to Nottingham will be distributed mainly online through digital platforms because information can be quickly updated. re: place will be advertised on the Nottingham Students Union website and social media pages along with websites based solely on Nottingham which advertises events that are up and coming.

For example websites such as: www.thisisnottingham.co.uk, http://www.itsinnottingham.com/ and http://www.leftlion.co.uk.

It will be promoted on their sponsorships digital platforms. Alpro will release a press release on their website two weeks before the arrival of re: place, giving details about what is expected from the pop-up cafe. It will also be advertised on their social media pages as these will be frequently updated to give consumers the whereabouts of the cafe and a countdown to the number of days before its arrival.

As a pioneer in blant-based food, Alpro is now sponsoring a pop up vegan cafe.

re: place a rustic, handcrafted cafe that offers a vegan only menu. It is an experiential pop-up cafe that has based itself in vacant spaces on the British high street, moving around different locations of the UK starting in Nottingham. The launch of the cafe will take place on October 7th with the aim of providing students with fulfilling and nutritional meals that can fit in seamlessly with their current diet.

Locating itself in a bright and airy vacant shop it is positioned on Shakespeare Street, a two minute walk from Nottingham Trent University. The launch will take place from 11am-6pm, when entering consumers will be offered free food and drink of their choice. There will be staff walking around the cafe offering free tasters of food which will have been made from raw, fresh ingredients and some Alpro products. Consumers can have real interaction and talk to the staff to learn more about the variation of a vegan diet. re: place will offer students vegan meals highlighting the health benefits and easiness of a vegan diet.

“A vegetarian diet reduces heart disease risk by up to a third” re:place will have an organic, up-cycled designed shop alongside the cafe so that consumers can purchase products that may have been used in the cafes dining menu. This allows consumers to incorporate products into making meals at home and experience re:place elsewhere. re: place will stay in Nottingham for two weeks before moving on to its next location. The cafe aims to change people’s perception of veganism and encourage the use of vacant space to create an experience for consumers and bring the community together.

12. 2 DURING THE EVENT There will be a launch event taking place for the opening of re: place on 7th October 2013. The cafe will open on this date because it is two weeks after the 2013/14 term starts and freshers will have moved in and had their welcome week. Therefore the initial excitement of staying on university campus will be dying down as students begin to venture into the city. Being located two minutes away from the university the majority of students will have seen the early promotion weeks before the opening of the cafe.

On entering the cafe everyone will be provided with a free coffee or glass of freshly squeezed juice of their choice. Walking around the cafe will be staff offering free samples of food so that consumers can try before they buy. Allowing consumers to engage with the staff and talk about veganism in order to learn new things. re: place is targeting students and therefore the cafe will provide them with 10% discount cards that they are able to use on their first visit to the cafe. This is an incentive for them to go back to the cafe because offering students promotions and discounts is vital as ‘one in six spend their student loan in the first month’ (Marszal, 2012: Online) of attending university.

If consumers are too rushed to relax and take in the environment of the cafe they can purchase products from the connected shop.

12. 3 AFTER THE EVENT Re: place will stay in Nottingham for two weeks before it moves on to its next location.

It will move on to Birmingham University and launch its opening on 21st October. This is because their term starts on 30th September which allows three weeks promotion for the cafe to be advertised.

To ensure that consumers from Nottingham are aware of its current location, its social media pages will highlight its journey and every move. Its online presence will carry on engaging consumers through beneficial information for example recipes, cooking tips, cookbooks, tv shows and restaurants that all relate to a vegan diet. This will be to ensure re: place does not lose or isolate its old consumers but instead build a strong consumer following.

FU T U RE R EC OM ME NDAT ION S 13.

The future of re: place will depend upon the success of its sales and impact it has on consumers. The pop-up cafe will travel to different university cities across the UK in order to make an impact on students and their knowledge of veganism. This will be to ensure that consumers talk about re: place, its offerings and where it is located which will generate word of mouth again.

If re: place sits well in the food market and the demand for home cooked, locally sourced products remains then there will be a future opportunity for re: place to become permanent. Taking advantage of the empty shop space in one of the city’s worst hit after recession, re: place could change from a pop-up to become a physical store.

Measuring the success of re: place will be done by looking at the increase in number of Facebook and Twitter followers after the pop-up event has been. With the hope that the more universities visited the bigger the number of followers they will get. As well as looking at how people are engaging with and talking about the brand online. Counting the number of people attending the pop-up launch event will provide a way of seeing if the cafes advertisement is working to its best ability, and if not RE: think of a way to change and target the consumers better. Looking at the number of products sold in the shop will also be a way of managing how well re: place is doing.

C ONCLUSION

The impact empty shops are having on the retail industry and community has already been addressed with some issues being tackled whilst a lot are still unresolved. The impact food has on the industry is apparent and will not die out in the media but become a bigger and hotter topic. The future of the food industry is looking to change due to the impact of the horsemeat scandal as more consumers have turned to an ‘interest in foods of local, regional and British origin’ (Mintel Provenance in Food and Drink, 2013: Online) providing an incentive for retailers to emphasise the provenance of their food so that consumers can trust what they are buying into.

In conclusion this report has raised awareness and tried to tackle the current issues effecting the high street and food industry by creating re: place, a pop-up vegan cafe.

The concept of the cafe, its branding and communication will hopefully change the way people perceive veganism. With hope that veganism will enter a norm where by people will stop viewing it as a fault on the diet and the‘74.3% of media coverage being negative’ (Conciousvegan, 2012: Online) will change and become more positive. Whilst at the same time making use of empty space on the high street the operation of the cafe will change the way people view the high street in order for it to become a hub of the community and a place that people will want to talk about and be a part of.

From: Phil Lather <philhather@gmail.com> Subject: Final Year Project Date: 26/03/2013 13:44 To: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk>

Hi Jade, Sorry itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s taken me so long to reply, I hope Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m not too late to help you out!

1) I have been vegan for just over 2 years. I was raised vegetarian and made the transition when I was 18 2) I went vegan because I realised that the dairy/egg industry is for the most part just as cruel as the meat industry. I am an animal lover and had to face up to the fact that by consuming any animal products I am responsible for the suffering of animals.

124

125

3) No, not really as far as my diet is concerned. However, there are animal products in SO many things other than what you’d expect - for example, tattoo ink, a certain type of glue that is very common in binding books, and camera film. It is generally accepted that it would be near impossible to eradicate all animal products from your lifestyle in society as it is right now, so the aim of a vegan diet is to greatly reduce the amount you consume.

4) As long as you know what to look for, most supermarkets cater quite well for vegans. There are so staples that you can get everywhere (e.g. Lentils & chickpeas) and most major supermarkets also offer vegan meat alternatives. You probably know by now that Quorn isn’t vegan, it contains eggs. However, a lot of Linda McCartney food - sausages, burgers etc, is vegan, Asda do their own brand vegan chicken pieces, Tesco have just recently started doing ‘Free-from’ cheese that’s vegan and various other brands that cater for vegans 5) I think Shannon has probably forwarded you the list I sent her but I will reel off a few that come to mind anyway Alpro Provamel Vegetarians Choice Rice Dream Nakd Realeat Redwood Sheese Cheatin Pulsin Linda McCartney Cauldron Fry’s

No not at all, thank you for getting back to me with your answers! I may have some more to ask you at a later date so will you just email you then if that is okay?

Thanks, Jade

6) I live in Bristol which is particularly good for vegan food, there are only a handful of places which are completely vegan but a number of places that offer vegan options.

Completely vegan Cafe Kino (tea, coffee , cakes, also cooked breakfast, ‘bacon’ sandwiches, other meals) - this one is my favourite place in Bristol Arc (tea and coffee but also a lot of more earthy foods, raw dishes and smoothies etc) Vegan options (There are countless, these are just a few favourites) Biblos (Greek) Royce Rolls (sandwiches, pasties, tea, coffee, cake) Moorish (Moroccan) Tampopo (Asian) Pepenero (Italian)

It might be worth noting that most places that are otherwise completely vegan cafes do keep cows milk for tea and coffee Hope this helps, just let me know if you need any more info, I am happy to help!

18.8 EMAIL INTERVIEW: NICOLA BARLTROP

From: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> Subject: Final Year Project Date: 18/03/2013 12:12 To: Nicola Barltrop <nbarltrop@yahoo.com> Hi Nicky,

Thank you for allowing me to ask you some questions with regards to when you underwent a vegan diet. Please can you answer them in as much detail as possible.

1. How long were you a vegan for?

2. What were your reasons for going vegan?

3. Did you find it difficult to stick to a vegan diet?

4. Do you feel the supermarkets cater well enough for a vegan diet?

5. What food brands do you suggest are best for a vegan diet?

6. Do you feel there are enough cafes/ restaurants that sell only vegan food?

-if yes, where are they and what are they called?

-if no, where would you like to see one? And what would you like it to sell?

I look forward to hearing from you with your responses, Jade Barltrop

From: Nicola Barltrop <nbarltrop@yahoo.com> Subject: Final Year Project Date: 10/04/2013 13:34 To: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> 1. How long were you a vegan for?

I was mostly vegetarian for over 10 years. I went vegan several times during this period for a few months at a time.

3. Did you find it difficult to stick to a vegan diet?

Yes and no. It can be fairly easy if you eat well but at the same time I would miss things like cheese 4. Do you feel the supermarkets cater well enough for a vegan diet?

Obviously there are plenty of fresh products available and the range of pulses and grains are always expanding but in terms of ready meals then no (although that’s no bad thing...)

5. What food brands do you suggest are best for a vegan diet?

I used to like cauldron.

6. Do you feel there are enough cafes/ restaurants that sell only vegan food?

No but it is such a specific niche market I can’t expect they would do well....

-if yes, where are they and what are they called?

-if no, where would you like to see one? And what would you like it to sell?

I think vegan food trucks would be great; they could use social media to track down the best market and head to that area at a set time. I love ethnic vegan food - Indian and japanese cuisines especially Hope this is ok?

From: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> Subject: Final Year Project Date: 10/04/2013 14:19 To: Nicola Barltrop <nbarltrop@yahoo.com> Hi Nicky,

That’s fab. Thank you for answering those question for me. I will email you again if I have anymore, I hope that is okay?

Jade

2. What were your reasons for going vegan?

Whilst I was used to not eating meat, I used to suddenly get a bit freaked out about what I was eating (eggs, milk etc) and do would stop for a while until I felt the need to eat animal products again.

18.9 EMAIL INTERVIEW: TANYA BRAUN (ALPRO)

From: Tanya Braun <tanya@rt-com.com> Subject: Alpro Team Date: 14/03/2013 17:12 To: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> Hi Jade,

Hope you are well. Thank you for your message on twitter.

Could you tell us a bit more about what you are hoping we can help you with? From your initial message we think that perhaps our sister company Provamel will be better suited to your venture?

Either way, please reply to me as I deal with queries for both!

Thank you, Tanya

From: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> Subject: AlproTeam Date: 14/03/2013 18:28 To: Tanya Braun <tanya@rt-com.com> Hi Tanya,

I am a final year Fashion Communication and Promotion student at Nottingham Trent University and I am currently working on my final project for my degree. In this project, I am attempting to overcome the stigma attached to veganism amongst all sections of the community, but primarily students.

I have found that many believe that substituting their usual products for vegan alternatives would have negative effects on the taste and value for money they usually enjoy. However, I believe that is not the case and I am sure you agree. I plan to tackle these misconceptions in my project by proposing to set up a vegan café in Nottingham city centre that promotes vegan products, but simultaneously does not preach, lecture or force anyone to become a vegan. My main aim is to show that veganism is a healthy option that does not sacrifice taste or value.

130

I envisage that the cafe will sell vegan drinks, snacks and meals as well as small selection of vegan groceries, so visitors are able to take away the ingredients required to replicate the recipes made in the cafe.

I would really love to be able to set up this café in association with Alpro - a vegan brand that many students still don’t engage with, despite the health benefits it brings. Although this relationship could just be hypothetical, it would be great if I was able to have some communication with you, and to receive some feedback on my idea. Working directly with a brand would be hugely beneficial to the outcomes of my project and therefore, if you had any guidance or advice to give me, it would be greatly appreciated.

I look forward to hearing from you.

Yours sincerely, Jade Barltrop

From: Tanya Braun <tanya@rt-com.com> Subject: Alpro Team Date: 20/03/2013 10:38 To: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> Hi Jade,

Thanks so much for getting in touch.

Would you be interested in Provamel products at all? We have a monthly sample giveaway for Provamel and I know that we could get some out to you to help with your vegan café.

I will check with my Alpro colleagues to see if this is possible from an Alpro point of view but I can not be sure on this one.

Please let me know your thoughts.

Kind regards, Tanya

18.10 COMPETITORS: NORTHERN VEGAN FESTIVAL

From: Jade Barltrop <jade.barltrop2010@my.ntu.ac.uk> Subject: Alpro Team Date: 20/03/2013 13:21 To: Tanya Braun <tanya@rt-com.com> Hi Tanya,

Thank you for getting back to me.

Yes I would be interested, that sounds like a really exciting opportunity. If the event was to happen, I may potentially approach a vegan cafe in Nottingham to see if they would work along side you in this event.

Please do keep me informed and let me know when you hear back from Alpro, as they would be the ideal brand I would initially choose however if there not available, Provamel would be just as exciting.

If I donâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t hear from you by the end of the week, I will be in touch on Monday to see if you have heard anything.

Thank you again.

Yours Sincerely, Jade Barltrop
