Where is the store you went in located? This will help me determine which DC has the product and who else might be able to get it. You say the product was on top shelf or just above Capri Sun? (Top shelf is kiss of death) It is quite possible Capri had been stocked last night (stocking is done 3rd shift) and our product has not had to be restocked?
Somebody help me with pack size please...is it 6/4pks per case?This would equate to a minimum of 24 case per store (based on Wal-Mart MO for stocking)
Folks, please realize I am playing Devils advocate. I gaurantee NO ONE on this board is happier then I am to see it in the stores. I also gaurantee NO ONE on this board has the grocery background/experience I have.
As I said in a previous post, getting in is a huge task, staying in and being successful can be even harder. Do not leave this message feeling down, rather celebrate the victory of the battle and prepare for the war. Believe me, Kraft is watching.
Kraft is our enemy. Capri Sun could go to .99 or lower in a flash just to destroy the competition. I have seen it done countless times when I was with them, price them to death. Kraft can make it up in a million ways. My hope is Kraft offers some ridiculous amount of money to buy us. I have seen that also happen time and time again.
