Competitive Analysis & Need

Market Position The honey market is on a steady decline due to the impending extinction of the production source, the honey bee. The daily overhead costs attributed to running a hive and the heightened popularity of raw honey, has made preservation more challenging. The passing of legislature in order to bring beekeeping to urban areas such as Boston and New York, has opened opportunities in unflooded markets across the United States. An urban honey company, who delivers unique quality products with the “worker” in mind and their local partners by thier side has yet to test the sweet rewards of this ancient practice.

Narrative Sweet, delicious, healthy, and healing. Arguably the greatest qualities of our product. As “workers” at Honey Dew Bee Company, we spend countless hours producing a raw additive that can be used to sweeten your tea, brighten up your breakfast, or suppress that nagging cough. With you, the consumer, in mind we work to remain loyal and reliable even in the most extreme conditions. However, harsh environmental factors are taking their toll and our family is quickly disappearing. Help to support your local “workers” here at Honey Dew, by learning more about our “hive” and how we are


Voice & Tone Honey Dew Bee Company has a warm, inviting, authentic, yet informative tone. This allows the company to appeal to a large market, specfically male/female in thier late 20’s to early 30’s who are concerned with preservation and supporting local businesses. The target market will be somewhat health conscious, having done some research about factors which are beneficial when ingesting honey,and will understand the dynamics of the current impending honey bee extinction. All members who are included within this persona are searching for a raw product that is fairly priced, a company that is concerned about the source (the bees), someone who will help them utilize the health benefits of the product, and a company who's look and feel is simple, modern and overall visually appealing.
