Target Group
Delicious Denim targets
women who are self-confident, independent and lively. The brand’s main focus lies on their beautiful and juicy curves. Experience has taught this woman to respect herself and her femininely shaped body. She does not feel the need to squeeze herself into her daughter’s jeans and to pretend to be something she’s not! Our target woman feels in unison with herself and holds her body in high esteem. She feels confident about it and wants to convey this feeling also to the outside. Choosing quality over quantity is one of her principles and being true to this philosophy, she searches for a deeper meaning and the story behind her purchases. Sustainability and environmental protection is therefore considered an important matter. This woman is like a juicy and succulent fruit: powerful and seductive, her refreshing attitude equals an explosion of taste.

Positioning Since our products are fashionable and comfortable, it is therefore uniquely fitted to our target group, the market positioning should be located in the mid range in style and the upper range in design focus.

Main Objectives of Strategy With the Delicious Denim collection, we want to expand the limited market of clothing for women over 55. The woman, who is interested in nature and aware of sustainability, will be attracted to our clothing line and our brand concept. Our store will create a comfortable and casual atmosphere. We intend to give the customer the feeling of emotional security and build up a trustful relationship. We put a lot of emphasis on friendly and attentive staff. In addition, we offer a wide range of services for the customer, so that they feel welcomed and well advised in our shop. For instance, our staff will help the customer to take their exact measurements to find the right size and to determine what style would suit them best. There will also be a
bar in the shop a large assortment of refreshing drinks and juicy smoothies. Furthermore the opportunity is given to ask questions to the employees about our way of producing and the brand’s principle. Moreover, Delicious Denim wants to seduce its customers with the smell of fresh fruits and with the sound of pleasant nature noises as they enter the store. Also, there will be a tree in the centre of the store. It is supposed to bring across our brand story and core values to the customer, as the tree and the fruits are symbolic for the brand-customer relationship and our C2C concept. Our clothing will be colourful, sensual, easy to combine and comfortable to wear and will therefore underline the brand image of Delicious Denim.

USP
Delicious Denim’s unique selling point is that we of-
fer stylish, yet sustainable products that are fitted to the special needs of our womanly shaped target customer. The cuts and fits of our garments are designed to suit the mature bodies of women aged 55 or older, especially respecting their problem zones that other brands often neglect. As the design does not only provide comfort, but also a tasteful and modern look, it will appeal very much to the demanding customers. Furthermore, fruity scents will be integrated into the fabrics, which will make an experience of “wearing the jeans”. The scents are applied with special coatings that contain microcapsules – very tiny capsules which contain the scent of the fruit, but are too small to be seen with the bare eyes. The scent is released by friction and movement, such as walking or stretching. The scent will last for at least 5 washes and is absolutely harmless to the environment. As the capsules have also been dermatology tested, we can ensure that they are completely safe for the skin.

Conclusion

Combining all these aspects in one unique and personal garment, Delicious Denim aims to give its wearers an unforgettable experience of well-being, authenticity and the chance to take responsibility towards the environment.
