Overall there is a great reason for a brand extension for Hobbs brand. The market for girl’s wear shows they play an important part in the retail industry. Children today are being more self-aware when it comes to fashion and deciding what looks good on them. The current market shows the children’s wear market is profiting from the shift towards smaller and wealthier families, so mothers can afford to spend more on their children. Mothers have the same sense of fashion; want to be able to make their daughters look as stylish as they do when shopping. The proposal recognises the children wear market and aims at come to a conclusion in filling in the gap. The evidence that lead to this proposal came from primary and secondary research. The final Report concept is obtained in this report. It is really important to comprehensively analyse and also to evaluate when making a proposal idea when referring to Hobbs target market audience and competitors. This allows precise conclusions in order to evaluate its accomplishment as a brand.

PEOPLE

MARKETING MIX 09


MARKETING TYPOLOGY One main marketing typology for Mini London are the Generation X who are thirty-five up and has youthful attitude but also self aware enough not to get out of their comfort zone. They buy items that will last instead of fast fashion and they also prefer a brand they can trust. They are current Hobbs consumers who are consistently brand loyal

GENERATION X

THIRTYFIVEUPS

The Generation D is also Mini London target typology due to their consistent use of technology. This generation cannot remember a world without Internet. Their use of technology is an inherent not a learned part of life. The massive of technology in their young age shows a willingness and openness to innovation. Through their access to the Internet, they now have a global view of other culture and lifestyle, which they now emulate in their own style

GENERATION D

10


DEMOGRAPHICS

I have spoken to 50 people via questionnaires which have been handed out to both men and women. This resulted to parents spending more on their kids from 2- 9 year olds. When it comes to buying kids clothing they prefer causal daywear and good quality. 30% of the parents said “When buying clothes they prefer quality”

AB GROUP FEMALE GENERATION X - 35 UP GENERATION D INFANTS - JUNIOR (2 - 9 YEARS OLD) UPPER - WORKING CLASS FINANCIALLY STABLE

11


ECONOMICS Smaller and wealthier families, the trend for mothers to have children at an older age (with the average age for women to have their first child standing at 29.6 in 2010) when they are more financially secure and better poised to provide for their child, encourages a rise in spend per capita on children’s clothing (Mintel, 2012)

53% of Consumer represents 27.4m adults who bought children’s clothes last year

The trend for parents to have children later in life when they are better positioned financially who earn ÂŁ67,000 upwards are able to provide for a child results in an increase in spend per capita on childrens clothing. These shoppers are also more likely to have a more mature, sophisticated taste in children clothing than very young mums.

12
