● Project background
"Quanjude", as a well-known time-honored enterprise in China's catering industry, has developed for 135 years since it was founded in Tongzhi three years in the Qing Dynasty (AD 1864). After several generations' efforts, "Quanjude" has formed a series of gourmet products and a unique food culture represented by roast duck. Quanjude, a century-old shop, has become the main place for state leaders to entertain international friends and a window for international and domestic friends to know and know Beijing. Since the reform and opening up, China's catering market has developed rapidly. Facing the increasingly fierce market competition and the challenge of foreign catering industry, "Quanjude" established a large-scale catering enterprise group based on Qianmen, Hepingmen and Wangfujing Quanjude in May, 1993, including more than 51 joint ventures, ending the long-term unfavorable situation of one store and decentralized operation. Quanjude Group became the sole holder of "Quanjude" trademark, thus creating "Quanjude".
By the beginning of 1999, Quanjude Group had registered 11 trademarks in China, covering 25 categories and 124 kinds of goods or services; At the same time, it has registered the "Quanjude" trademark in 31 key countries and regions in the world. From 1996 to 1998, Quanjude trademark was awarded as "Beijing Famous Trademark" by Beijing Administration for Industry and Commerce for two consecutive years. In October, 1999, Quanjude brand was recognized as "China well-known trademark" by the State Administration for Industry and Commerce, which was the first well-known service trademark in China.
The 21th century is coming, and Quanjude time-honored brand is playing its second century in its development history. The success or failure of Quanjude brand strategy is the key to determine whether the enterprise can maintain its vigorous vitality in the new century. Project Investigation Facing the 21th century, the development of Quanjude brand, like the catering industry in China, and even the commercial and service industries in China, faces good opportunities and severe challenges.
● Opportunities
1. With the development of market economy and the improvement of people's consumption level, the effect of famous brands is becoming more and more obvious. Using and enjoying famous brands has gradually become a social fashion, and the prestigious Quanjude will be further respected and favored by society and consumers;
2. The promotion of Quanjude's state-owned enterprise reform, the establishment of modern enterprise system and the improvement of enterprise management mechanism have laid a good institutional guarantee for the promotion of Quanjude's corporate image;
3. All employees of Quanjude have deep feelings for Quanjude, a lofty sense of historical responsibility and social responsibility for promoting and developing the brand, which has become the ideological basis of corporate image public relations of Quanjude;
4. In addition, the brand image of Quanjude occupies a high position in the eyes of the public. In March, 1998, the column group of Beijing Express of Beijing TV Station and the Institute of Public Opinion of China Renmin University discussed "Which products can best represent Beijing's brand image?" This topic is investigated by questionnaire. The questionnaire asked the respondents to write down four kinds of products that best represent Beijing's economic image. As a result, there were as many as 41 or 51 kinds of Beijing products nominated, among which Quanjude Roast Duck ranked first and was unanimously considered as the iconic product that best represented Beijing's economic image. Beijing Preserved Fruits, Beijing Jeep, Peony Color TV, Erguotou Liquor, Beijing Snacks, Yanjing Beer, Dabao Cosmetics, Wang Zhihe Sufu, Lenovo Computer and Tongrentang Chinese Medicine ranked 2nd-11th.
● Challenges encountered
1. From the buyer's (consumer's) point of view: With the improvement of people's living standards and the change of lifestyle, consumers put forward higher requirements for the quality of Quanjude catering;
2. From the seller's own point of view: the operation of Quanjude Group's franchise management system requires a unified corporate image;
3. judging from the current domestic catering competitors, the domestic catering industry continues to develop. There are more than 411 roast duck restaurants named after "Beijing Roast Duck" in Beijing alone, and there are thousands of restaurants and restaurants that run Beijing Roast Duck, which makes the competition more intense.
4. From the perspective of potential competitors and substitutes in the future, the process of global economic integration is accelerating. After China's accession to the International Trade Organization, foreign catering will be more accessible and will pose a threat to the survival and development of domestic catering industry, including Quanjude. In order to seize the opportunity, meet the challenge, actively participate in the market competition, and create a world-class brand of catering industry with China cultural heritage, strong strength, extraordinary quality and outstanding market performance, the group company decided to take the 135th anniversary of the establishment of Quanjude Store in 199 as an opportunity to launch a series of multi-level corporate image public relations activities throughout the year. The public relations goal of project planning: to carry forward the enterprise spirit of "integrity, gathering but not dispersing, benevolence first", to carry forward the national brand of Quanjude (externally), to establish a brand-new image of Quanjude's time-honored brand, to create a market by celebrating the store, to promote the market by culture, to strengthen the awareness of Quanjude's roast duck delicacies (internally), to enrich the corporate culture connotation of Quanjude, and to inspire all employees of Quanjude Group to meet the challenges of the new century with 111 times confidence. Public relations strategy: In order to achieve this goal, we will hold three major activities: Quanjude Cup, Quanjude Roast Duck Food Culture Festival and Quanjude Brand Strategy Seminar. The media selection of these public relations activities is mainly newspapers, as well as TV stations and radio stations, supplemented by our company's publicity publications.
● Specific plan
The series of public relations activities throughout the year can be divided into three stages, from the prelude to the climax: the first stage: in the first quarter including New Year's Day, winter vacation, Spring Festival, Lantern Festival and other holidays, the "Quanjude Cup" Spring Festival prize-winning collection couplet activity (hereinafter referred to as the collection couplet) will be jointly held with Beijing Evening News and Beijing Couplet Research Association; For the whole society (including the employees of the group), carry out the essay "Quanjude and I" and collect the cultural relics of the store history; Set out to sort out the data, edit and publish the book Quanjude Past and Present.
