unemploy-

u- unemployment rate is quite stable er it 's about

okay _1 er it was fifteen thousand er sorry fifteen hundred fifty _0 almost fifteen hundred er _1 hh third quarter of last year it was about _0 thirteen hundred _2 twelve something _0 twelve hundred something i mean _1 so within er _1 three or four months time _1 the euro er _0 went up almost _2 twenty to twenty-five per cent _0

in convenience store _7

convenience store we 're talking about like convenience store is like a_[org27] or

mhm _0

er _0 but let me continue _0 if you look at _0 the monthly sales starting from july _2 up until even november _1 we 're really er our performance was not _0 good com- even compared with the year two thousand two _2

mhm _0

er _0 that was also er er convenience store is _1 is part of this result _0 because we pushed a lot _0 and actually it it _0 the convenience store did n't _0 er sell off to the consumers then it really _1 come back to us as a a return goods _0 and also there 's some _0 er postpone- _1 postponement of er delivery from your side so we had some _0 little little bit of out of stock situation er

for four months or what

not four months but er _0 er

in overall sense _0 okay _0

yeah in the later chart

mhm okay

okay _4 so er if i _0 summarize _1 what we have _0 achieved _0 in two thousand three _1 er by product er category _2 erm _3 the value here is the million korean won _3 er _1 our general target year two thousand three was about _1 we will increase about forty-seven per cent compared to year two thousand two in terms of value _0

mhm

but actually we ended up with _0 hundred thirty-four _2 so it is minus twenty-one per cent _0 in value _1 er

and refill was minus fourteen _1

mhm

and in practice we started er _0 quite reasonable _10 we started into active product from er october er last year for the xxx

mhm _0

er _2 so the er sales achievement is quite poor _0 meantime we spent actually _1 er over thirty-eight per cent _0 of our budget for the s_a and s_p _1 which is the er our target was _1 twenty-seven but actually _0 er we 'd _0 used up er _2 er twenty-seven million but we used about almost thirty-one million _1 so we spent about _1 er _2 fifteen per cent more _5

okay

yes _1

right

@@ _2

right _3

if if you look at the top line our original target was _2 two hundred fifty million won _0 er but we achieved _0 only fifty-f- -four per cent of our original target that 's why _0 the percentage wer- er s_a and s_p percentage _0 against sales

mhm _0

almost more than double _0

from ten point eight _1 of our _0 plan to _1 twenty-three point two as a as a actual _0 okay _6

and the interactive _0

interactive we started only er started from october two thousand three _0 okay _21

okay

yeah yeah

now er by character _2 er _4 the er _3 let 's look at the one by one loony toon _2 er may er account for nineteen per cent of our total sale _3 simpson is twenty _2 er _0

mhm _0

walt disney eleven _2 and mister bean fifteen _0 jungle book twelve i and the others are quite er

mhm _1

er the minor _1 okay _2

hello kitty _2

hello kitty is er _0 five

but _0 because that was successful all over asia _1

mhm hm _0

and we had targeted also fifty thousand pieces

yeah that was our original plan _0 yeah because hello kitty is quite well known _1 quite known in korea

yeah

right f_na all over asia

yeah

mhm

that 's why i _1 kind of wondering why

i li- er i have to check when we started a- the _0 response from the cons- _0 consumer is quite good

right

i think we started late

probably we s-

late yeah

we launched it quite late

because in hongkong we got the a_[org27] listing because of _0

erm hello kitty right _0

so in summary the er er _3 three major _1 er figure _0 character _0 is loony toon _0 er walt disney _0

winnie-the-pooh

and er jungle book _2

winnie-the-pooh _0

yeah

no winnie-the-pooh is just seven _1 mister bean er _0 although we _2 pushed a bit

was not planned anyway right _0

w- what _0 sorry

mister bean was not planned anyway to be launched

yeah yeah

as far as i see

exactly _2

actually the only thing i

actually we sold it but many of them are returned

right

mhm

okay _0 so _0 uptake was not good

mhm

xx xxxx

the other three loony toon _0 walt disney _0 and jungle book are still steady seller _2

loony toons

yeah of course _0

loony toon walt disney and jungle book

walt disney

excuse me do you have for the different assortments always one bar code right _1

xx

er _0 one bar code for all assortments

yeah _0 it 's always the same bar code for all assortments

yeah for _0 one dispenser plus two refills it 's the same bar code _1

okay

as far as i know _1

er we got in hello kitty again the response is so far er so good _0 so er we have some er _1 some some er expectations _0 for hello kitty er of course i 'll give you more er details of our learning _0

mhm

from last year especially the er what _2 we have to _0 er do for year two thousand four _0

mhm

but hello kitty was a bit er early to say but it looks like _0 it will be quite successful _0

mhm

er character _0 okay _6

mhm

of course this er share of _0 business and variation is based on value i 'd have some _13 okay the _0 next one will be quite er more analytical _1 over er _1 on our sales _0 result _0 per _0 distribution channel _1 okay _3 so _0 we have here _0 convenience store department store a_[org30] _2 hypermarket like er a_[org31] a_[org32] _2 a_[org32] is local one _0 and also _0 general trade _2 er bakery shop we do we do not have any er _0

mhm _0

sales outlet _0 and special outlets here er is like er _1 er a_[org33] a_[org33] er is the family restaurant _1 owned by a_[org34] _3 okay _0 so if you look at er s_cvs _2 there 's a _2 er _1 increase from may _1 the sales er increased from er dramatically from april to may and maintained _0 er quite a good number _2 in june _1 july and august then dropped dramatically again from september _0 and october november even december there er is some minus number _0

mhm

er it it is _0 as i mentioned _1 er when _0 a_[firstname1] was in _0 korea in march we agreed that _0 we have to do something for the s_cvs _0 because we thought some opportunity there _0 so we really push _0 so we listed products _0

mhm

after _2 couple of months _1 when there 's no er uptake _0 occurred _0 the s_cvs head o- head p_headquarter _0 asked us to _0 er return er the the collection of return goods so that 's why why the number looks quite good _1 for _1 almost four months _0 then all of a sudden _1 the number dropped dramatically from september all the way _0 to the end of

and that 's for sure the packaging with the _0 plastic _0

i think so _0 f_xxxxxxxx

but why would we launch this _0 this _0

f_xxxxx

this packaging _3

it was a skin _0 skin p_wobbler _4

yeah

yeah

this one _0

yes this one _0

and the packaging

yeah yes your present one yes right

cos usually for the for the convenience we have that that licensed impulse carton that 's why i 'm wondering _0 why _0

f_vielleicht f_war f_er f_zu f_breit

why _2 why you _0 went with the _0 the plastic _0 tray

oh _0 okay _2

because this plastic tray usually is not the _0 best packaging _0 since er it 's very _0 difficult to merchandise if you take it out you will never

yeah yeah f_xxx

hm

f_xxx _2

f_haben f_wir f_ueberhaupt f_noch f_einen

f_xxx _0

f_nein f_xxx _2

f_ich f_weiss f_nicht _4

we we get one sample of that impulse carton

well if you go to er _1 s_cvs there are _0 p_multi-layers of shelf _0

mhm

okay _0 er to put _0 this kind of _0 high _0 display _0

xxx

yeah so is it on hooks in the _0 in the s_cvs or _0 is it in the _0 in the cartons

it 's in shelf _0 but _0 x

it 's lying in the shelf or or

it 's lying on the shelf

it 's lying on the shelf

aha

and the shelf height _0 is quite limited

mhm okay

okay

so _0 the best location for this is a top shelf _1

okay

the top shelf is really tough _0 to get

mhm

we have to com- _1 compete with er the others

mhm

er where er which also want to that spot _0 to have that spot

sure sure

mhm

unless we have some _1 good reference _1 of sales

right

they do n't give _0 that spot to us so _0 many cases _0 cases we end up with a in the middle or or the bottom

mhm _0

then this _0 because of the height _1 er we fetch we u- _0 er actually in most cases should be er without _1

xxxx

so that 's why we use the plastic er which is er this this low low item

mhm but _0 again _0 that i understand it right _0 the products are just _0 lying in the shelf they 're not hanging on a hook _0 they are just lying _0 in the in the shelf _0

hm

f_xxxx f_xx

f_xxxxxxx f_xx _1 f_xxxxxxx

f_xxx f_xx

this one _1

aha this one you have

yes _0 we made er _0 maybe around _0 september _0 or october _0

mhm

f_xxxxxxxxx _2 f_xxx

f_xx f_xxxxx _5

here you are _1 on page seventeen _3

xxxxx

ah yeah _3

er

xxx _0 xx xxx

mhm

yeah _0

and this _0 is the presentation for the convenience stores _0

er convenience store as well as supermarket

supermarket

for multiple purpose _0

mhm _4

we made about _0 three hundred

there are so we made this er this er _1 er display maybe around _0 oct- maybe october or november

mhm _0

so _0 we are now starting _0

hm _3

because we realized that the _2 visibility of this product is really important

right _0

and er in many cases _1 the location er the a_[org1] product _2 is found _0 is er is a mid- _1 middle er mid- m- _0 p_mid-level of the shelf or the the the low _0 the lowest _0

mhm

where the visibility is really where visibility is really er low _0

right

and so we decide to _1 make this kind of a special er display _0

mhm _0

so we can er _2

it 's there

yeah

you get it

that one

yeah

yeah

this one you know

mhm _0

yeah yeah _0 so we can er persuade er the er s_cvs store okay

mhm _5

f_xx _0 f_xxxxx

mhm _4

er the ne- er department store _2 er i just see er there 's some peak _1 in april and october _1 and december _0 er we _1 learned that depart- at er for the department store _0 distribution _0 er only _2 the children 's day and christmas there 's er some peak but _0 o- other than that _1 the sale is just _1 er quite stable and low _0 okay

mhm

a_[org30] _1 er during month of may till _0 september there 's er almost none because _1 we had to concentrate _0 into s_cvs okay _1 so the- there was some trade-off between s_cvs and a_[org30] during the month of may _0 till er august _2 but _0 from november _0 there 's er some er sales again _2 er by that time we er concluded that s_cvs is not a _0 a best _0 er solution for us _1 so we change our er _3 distribution er target _0

mhm

more to

er _1 where _0 also we _0 fight _0 for shelf space _0

mhm _0

but _1 these er local products _2 which is not exactly same concept as er a_[THING1] but _0 some candies with some er toys _0

mhm _0

selling between five hundred to six hundred korean won _0

mhm

whereas our retail price is er fifteen hundred so it 's only one third of our price

mhm _2

so hh we sold a lot _0 with some promotion activities in hypermarket _1 but hypermarket we have to _0 fight with _1 local product with a very er _0 low price

mhm _7

er _0 general trade xxxx _3

xxxxx

the general trade is the the _1 candy shops

tra- traditional _0 channel

traditional channel _3 er a bit looks for sure quite a fluctuation there _3

but so far we had in all _0 channels _0 increases right _0

er

in total _4

so er _1 we see some er potentials in hypermarket and general trade _0 okay _0

yeah but those twelve per cent in s_cvs does that mean _0 we increased _1

twelve

twelve per cent in s_cvs

no no that 's the er

general

oh it 's general share

yeah general business

okay

hm

again er the major contributio- -butor _1 in terms of _0 er value _0 er among our sales _0 outlet _0 are _0 those two so hypermarket and general trade

mhm

with er thirty-seven and _1 thirty-one per cent _2

general trade er _1 you sell directly to or wholesalers or

wholesalers

to er

wholesalers

to wholesaler _0

mhm _3

and it 's true that there was some change of our organization er last year _2 er if if er a_[S5] remembers well er _0 as i er explained to er mister a_[S4/last] er earlier today _1 that we changed er _1 division _0 manager from mister a_[lastname3] to _0 a_[firstname2] a_[lastname2] _1 a_[firstname2] a_[lastname2] took over er as of _0 september first was that september _0 first of october

er augu-

september okay

but in the meantime of er august

yeah he was a product manager _0 er used to be handled by a_[firstname5] _0

mhm

before a_[firstname6]

all right

they tell us erm what needs to be changed so usually it is quite a

yes on our own

mhm

mhm

a long

mhm

erm _0 procedure sometimes

hm mhm

sometimes we _1 for instance in _1 in thailand where there is _0 millions of copies of licences and

mhm

mhm

i see picture _0

because

yeah

we m- might face problems you as well as us because we are the lis-

er in the first place

we are we have the contract

er in terms of _1 er licensing er

i mean on the other hand of course it 's _0

you have you spent _0 you invested a lot _0 to a_[org40]

all right well hm _0

er when we go back _0 we will immediately _1

and please _1 check with a_[org40] _1 whether this _0 can be acceptable or not _0 assuming that _2 er if if if they say no _0 probably we will have to change _0 the visible _2

i i think they will say no _0 because usually

they will say no

usually every p_licenser _0 er giving the approval for _1 a header card for a display _0 wants of course his licence _0 to be _0 on the display then _1 they will never accept _0 i mean we can _0 check with them but they _0 will never accept

er a_[ORG40] dispenser and then _0

mhm

i do n't know _0

mhm

anything else but hello kitty

mhm

on _0 on th- on the

hm _1

i mean this is _0 this is only a small example i mean if you have seven hundred erm _0 or three hundred how many

three three

three hundred we produced three hundred

if you produced three hundred and _0

mhm

you have it in the stores since when since a couple of months _0

only er one and a half month

x months

yeah then _1 i think in that case we should not wake up any _0 any dogs by going now

xx x

now since it 's in the

okay

in the trade

yeah _0

now to the p_licenser and ask for permission because if they say no you have to remove everything

mhm

i think that 's _0 for three hundred displays not _0 not relevant

mhm

but maybe we can agree in the future whenever _1

sure sure

you put any kind of display so _0 or do anything _0 even if you place and ad in a in a _0 comic _0 magazine _0 and you lo- you y- y- _0 you use the licence _1 everything basically needs to be approved except _1 if it 's images of our products i mean if it 's the _0 if it 's a _1 donald duck dispenser _0

mhm

you show _1 that needs no approval if you if it 's a product

i know

product is er

like but but if it 's like the the _2

xx

like this one _0 for this one we needed _0

mhm

four _0

yes

four approvals from because it 's four different p_licensers to be on that kind of

mhm

of leaflet

mhm mhm

f_ja so maybe in the future we _0 we can we go the _0

mhm okay

the correct way _0 please

so er _1 that means we better change as soon as possible _1 before any _0 a_[org40] people see that _1 and initiate some _1 unpleasant er _2 hh power of action against it

yeah i wou- i would say since _1 according to the figures _2 erm _1 you _2 you should put _0 a_[org40] characters anyway on there because they 're very _0 very successful

so i would _0 suggest to put hello kitty _0 on the display _2

but er the problem is _0 this _0 a_[firstname8] rack holding _0

my question is

mhm

the p_in-market prices _0

hm _1

are we at a _1 price barrier or a price point which we should not _1 exceed _1 erm or is there room that you give those five per cent to the

well to be to be frankly with you _0 er we really hoped _0 that we could _0 increase our _0 retail price from _0 fifteen hundred to two thousand _2 okay which is about _0 er however _1 it 's true that there 's a _2 barrier _0

mhm

okay _0 er that 's why we could not increase _0 now it 's really _2 really a difficult period for us _0 if if we have to accept _1 five per cent er increase of our purchase price _0

yep

while we _1 had intention to increase but we could not because of the er _0 the barrier from the er er er er trade _1 and i told you _0 that we fight _0 against _0 cheap local product with a retail value between five hundred to _0 six hundred _0

yeah i _0 i mean with the cheap local product _0 we can never never compete i mean there we are so far away that _0

of course you know i i know

i think with the cheap local products erm we can not really _0 erm _0 m- might

well i i 'm only trying to tell you that we _0 we fight against them

yeah yeah yeah i know

i mean the positioning of a_[thing1] is er really unique _0

right

there is no _2 similar product _0 in the market _0

right

okay so _0 it 's not like selling _0 one of the wine _2

right

er fight against other wine you know

right

but _1 er _1 anyway we 'll see we 'll see er how we can er cope with _1 price increase in good

and in in regards of currency what what we can offer you and we offer that to _0 to other countries that we will _0 fix an exchange rate _0

mhm

erm which is erm _1 one twenty _2 so one erm _2 one euro is one twenty s_us dollars

mhm _0

and _0 everything _0 if it _0 further planned now it 's at one twenty-seven

hm

approximately

mhm

everything _0 above one twenty _0 we will issue as a _0 currency compensation bonus directly on the invoice _0 as a support that you know that you _1 the worst erm _0 case that you purchase the products is at a fixed exchange rate of one twenty

mhm

so that _0 we can offer you as a support _0 in order for you _1 to erm _2 to really plan

mhm _0

your your purchases

yes _0

jus- just a second i i i 'll ask just _0 him about it

anyway okay _1

yah so that currency er offer we made you should kind of er _2 also _1 get some _0 revenues back from that er _0

mhm

price increase _0 and for you i think it would be best er _1

mhm

in order to explain it to the to the trade

yah _1

that we changed the the packaging from this _0

that that 's change in yeah

this lower quali- er quality er skin cards to this higher premium

mhm

packaging of of blister

mhm mhm

so wi- with that i guess your sales force

mhm

of s_a and s_p last year _1 so i mean my proposal would have been if we _1 if we reach the two thousand and two turnover _0 this year _0 then we _20 so i i would i would say we take it into consideration still those thou- thousand euros for this year but maybe erm along this year _0 we can er create some some extra budget maybe in order to _0 to have those er those thousand euros then erm covered

mhm _8

f_xx f_xx f_x f_xx f_x f_xx f_xx f_x f_xx f_x _0

the dispenser function _0

f_xxx f_xx f_xx _0

f_x _0 f_xx _0

f_xxx

this is new

that was that was created especially and that 's why i found your your chart very interesting _0 for the duty-free channel

hm _0

er to have

ah

several _0 gifts in _0 the duty-free channel

it 's our oldest line

and also for for _0 toy er stores like i do n't know a_[org44] if it 's in korea or not

mhm mhm

but toy stores but mainly for for duty-free channel

hm _5

yah could be

mhm _1

_0 where pricing is not so much an issue _0

x x xx

than in the regular food trade where you

yes

and that _0 er access large a_[thing1]

mhm

giant dispenser right

yeah that 's also for _0

mhm _2

use duty-free _0 is too big

haeh

too big

too big yeah

too big

mhm

too big for what _0

for the shop

for duty-free _1 because _2 when they buy at the duty-free _1 they have to carry all the way _1 er _2

and then they go to xxxx

f_duty-free f_x f_xx f_x f_x f_xx f_x f_xx

mhm _2

because _4 duty-free they er buy this _0 for their _1 outgoing _3 directions _0 you know why i 'm

yah yah _0

but is too big for them to carry _2

well _0 i mean i do n't

this this one erm might be nice but er

i

thi- this is big one if you have a dispenser function inside here

mhm mhm _2 that 's xxx candies sold erm er in-flight _1

it 's delivered with eight candy rolls

haeh _0

also an option yeah if you have contact to that in the in-flight magazines

yeah what else

w- w- we will try in-flight _2

there 's also the pencil case _0 in the gift line

mhm _0

and inside the pencil case _1 there 's a dispenser _2 which comes together with two _0 candies these are in

okay

okay in _1 in the back of the catalogue you find all the measurements _0 packaging _0

uhu _0

for the _0 candies for di- -spensers

yeah that 's especially important when you place the next order _0 that all the dimensions of the packaging material changes because of the switch to _0 to blister

mhm mhm

so _0 you have to consider by _0 planning _0 er the content of the container that the dimensions _0 of the packaging material is now changed they get bigger _7

so our _0 importing department have to _0 consider _0

increase

that increased volume

right

mhm

mhm

right

but they may have to er _1 reflect this into _1 volume _0 er in the container _0

right

mhm

so unfortunately the the di- the disadvantage of this packaging is that we _0 transport a lot of air so with it so it makes the volume

the shipping cost

right _0

mhm

we increase no

right _2

how much percentage you lose in efficiency _2 you calculated

ooph not not really but _0 i guess

    Wie die DATEN-Darstellung funktioniert

    Die angezeigten Daten sind auf ARCHE, im XML oder RDF Format, gespeichert bzw. archiviert. Die Daten können sehr unterschiedlich dargestellt werden. In dieser HTML-Darstellung wurden XSLT-Stylesheets und XPath verwendet um Daten von ARCHE abzufragen und in eine HTML-Struktur zu transformieren. Dieser Prozess schafft die Möglichkeit, eine benutzerfreundliche Web-Applikation zu erstellen.

    Beta Version

    Der Beta Badge weißt darauf hin, dass die XSLT-Stylesheets derzeit noch in Entwicklung sind. Die Darstellung der Daten kann sich daher ändern. Zusätzliche Information zum Projekt oder weitere Funktionen könnten in Zukunft noch hinzukommen.

    How the DATA-Representation works

    The visualized data are saved and archived on ARCHE in XML or RDF formats. This data can be represented differently. In this HTML-Representation the data is transformed into a HTML structure. This process is achieved with XSLT-Stylesheets and XPath.

    Beta Version

    The Beta Badge is active because the XSLT-Stylesheets are still in development. Therefore, the Web-Application can change and data could be visualized differently. Furthermore, additonal data or functions could be added.
