Hershey’s and Cadburys are moving towards the premium chocolate market through the acquisition or upmarket launches (Zietsma, 2007). The profit potential present in this sector supported by its 20% annual growth rate make it very attractive for large organizations to come forward and avail this opportunity. There is a low threat of new entrants prevailing in this chocolate industry because of the high capital requirements and expected retaliation by current manufacturers. Current players in the industry also possess some barriers to entry for new entrants by maintaining economies of scales with their large production capacity and keeping their product differentiation with their specialized and novelty chocolate products. Even though there are low switching costs and easy access to distribution channels, but still the brand loyalty of the customers including the Rogers’ Chocolate itself make it harder for new firms to come into the competition.
(Transition: The history of Hershey’s chocolate laid the foundation for the many different types of chocolate eaten today.
Milton Hershey singlehandedly revolutionized the chocolate industry in the United States. In his time, he was one of the few major company owners who actually cared about his workers and their well-being. Not only was he setting the bar for treatment of workers, he was the first man to bring the decadence of milk chocolate, previously reserved for only the richest of folk, to the mass market of America. While bringing milk chocolate to the masses, he also established a sustainable source for his ingredients, a rarity for that time. In his wake of successfulness, many imitators and copies soon followed with their own brands of chocolate. However, Milton Hershey was the leading philanthropist and business leader of his time with his use of sustainable ingredients and his commendable efforts in times of war.
Cadbury is a British multinational confectionery company wholly owned by Mondelez International since 2010. It is the second-largest confectionery brand in the world after Wrigley's. Cadbury is internationally headquartered in Uxbridge, West London, and operates in more than 50 countries worldwide. It is famous for its Dairy Milk chocolate, the Creme Egg and Roses selection box, and many other confectionery products. Cadbury was established in Birmingham, England in 1824, by John Cadbury who sold tea, coffee and drinking chocolate. Cadbury developed the business with his brother Benjamin, followed by his sons Richard and George. George developed the Bournville estate, a model village designed to give the company's workers improved living conditions. Dairy Milk chocolate, introduced in 1905, used a higher proportion of milk within the recipe compared with rival products. By 1914, the chocolate was the company's best-selling product. Cadbury, alongside Rowntree's and Fry, were the big three British confectionery manufacturers throughout much of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.
