Strategy-Competition Major competition:
Mrs. Field’s Cookies (American) Mr. Donut (Japanese)
Minor (supermarket based) competition:
Kraft foods Specific Brand, Oreo and Chips Ahoy!
Venerability of the Business Model
If Great American Cookie is successful in providing both a dining and baking experience for its customers, GAC does foresee our business model being copied
![Page 9: Great American Cookies in China](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081515/568168cf550346895ddfbd71/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Strategy- Growth Focusing in the 1st tier cities in China, i.e. Shanghai
and Beijing
Providing franchising and licensing rights to Chinese partners who wish to open Great American Cookie to their locations in 2nd and 3rd tier cities.
All locations will retain the chocolate chip cookie as its signature cookie.
If the market allows, the 2nd and 3rd tier cities will also provide a baking experience for customers. However, if not, we will focus on just selling finished products
![Page 10: Great American Cookies in China](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022081515/568168cf550346895ddfbd71/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Strategy-CFDA Great American Cookies will follow China Food
and Drug Administration’s rules and regulations.
Furthermore, GAC will also never compromise the quality of our food by importing frozen dough and dry goods from the United States.
GAC will employ Jun He Law Firm to ensure that all food related regulations are met under Chinese Law.

Strategy- Changing Trends
Growing number of kids eating cookies and deserts Growing number of families having disposable
income Growing number of adults willing to experiment with
western cooking GAC will still have to educate the consumer on a
dessert eating culture, however, with the one child policy, young adults today are much more willing to eat sweeter tasting treats compared to their counterparts 20 years ago.
