Design Brief

Starting position

The retail sector is under pressure. Due to the ongoing trend towards online shopping, the role of conventional shops has changed fundamentally. The new possibilities are also changing the buying and consumption behavior of customers in the food sector. Food to go in takeaway shops is becoming more and more popular. Customers want it easy and convenient (at train stations, for example) or a special experience (for example, a food experience in a wholesaler).

Question

What is the current purchasing and consumption behavior of 20-30 year olds in the food sector. How must purchasing and catering options be designed in the future over the entire experience journey?

With a focus on today's 20-30 year olds, in-depth questions arise:

  • How do they consume (in groups, with friends, in the shared flat, with your family, alone)?
  • When do they consume and what factors influence them?

In order to remain successful in the future, the food retailer must strongly orientate itself towards the needs of this target group:

  • What is the ideal and future journey?
  • When does this have to start? At the moment and when I'm hungry? In the morning, when I get up?
  • When and how do I decide? When I am in the shop? Already earlier?
  • What should the shop solve for me in the future? Do I want to eat there or even cook there?
  • Am I still cooking, or does the supermarket cook for me? And when I cook - do I cook alone?
  • Because I'm on the road all day anyway. How much am I really willing to spend on quality food and what does it contain?

The questions are to be directed to the future journey of today's millennials. Not only in Switzerland, but internationally.

Aim

As part of this module, students focus on the shopping and consumer behavior of 20-30 year olds in the food sector and develop future-oriented multi-touchpoint service concepts for the retail sector.

Deliverables

  • Well-argued and high quality and visually processed analyses of shopping and consumption behavior in the food sector of 20-30 year olds
  • Development of novel service concepts in the form of video scenarios for the presentation of Future Food Retails for the trade fair Euroshop 2020
  • The short video scenarios and other useful presentations will be prepared for the Euroshop trade fair visitors in a "VR world"
