Dolce Gusto: nice performance in 2013
With a 36% increase in sales volume and 22% increase in value, Dolce Gusto has performed well given the highly competitive nature of the capsule coffee machine market in 2013. This performance is just as marked in emerging countries (Russia, Brazil, Argentina) as in the mature Western European countries.
Furthermore, Nestlé has invested heavily in communication and POS demonstrations in order to increase awareness of the advantages of the Dolce Gusto system.
The figure of 10 million units sold since its launch in 2006 was reached in April 2013.
In Spain, the year was marked by the unique new partnership between the national bank, BBVA, and Nescafé Dolce Gusto Krups.
By setting up this powerful partnership, the bank aimed to attract new customers as well as gain the loyalty of its current customers. With this in mind, the Group sold a large volume of Nescafé Dolce Gusto coffee machines to BBVA, which passed them on to their customers when they opened accounts or signed new contracts.
Groupe SEB and Nestle have launched, in early 2014, Nescafe Dolce Gusto (NDG) in Turkey. The partnership already settled in many countries relies on the two companies’ expertise. Groupe SEB provides the coffee machines and Nestle coffee the capsules.
For the launch, Nestle organized an event with key opinion leaders and the press. In the meantime, the machines and coffee capsules sales have begun in selected Tefal Shop in Istanbul. Demo days have been organized where consumers can taste Nescafe Dolce Gusto coffees and try on the machines. Consumers have shown great interest.
