DESCRIPTIVE ANALYSIS AND SOLUTIONS FOR FAST FOOD
BRANDS TARGETING BRAND EQUITY

ABSTRACT
We made the brand center of our deduction and analyzed how a particular brand is
perceived across a parameter or is consumed in a segment.
1. Gender
2. Age
3. Children
4. Income
5. Familiarity
6. Uniqueness
7. Relevance
8. Loyalty
9. Popularity
10. Category
11. Family Bin
12. Uniqueness Bin
13. Relevance Bin
14. Loyalty Bin
15. Popularity Bin
16. Region
17. Brand Equity
The first methodology is calculating correlation between the income and 5 parameters.
This is done in order to identify the variables that have negative, zero or positive
correlation and to what extent are they correlated.
The second methodology followed is finding the descriptive analysis. This is done in
two ways, one finding the overall analysis considering all the brands together and
second finding the detailed analysis while segregating all the 5 parameters into 3
different aspects; region, brand, and age group.
The third methodology that is used is finding the hypothesis test using ANOVA. Here
the testing is done to identify the comparability of the means for each of the
parameters with respect to each of the aspects. However, when the ANOVA test fails,
we need to identify the variables for which the mean values are not equal. And in
order to find so, TUKEY Test was performed whenever the ANOVA Test got rejected.
And lastly, the fourth methodology used was to identify the frequency of loyalty in
various ratings across the different parameters. And for the findings of those, we
created a Histogram.

DATA ANALYSIS
We identified 6 primary parameters and deduced correlation amongst them. We also
mapped the bin frequency across these parameters and compared the means for these
parameters across Brands, Age Groups and Regions. Lastly we conducted Hypothesis
testing using ANNOVA and Tukey Test and made some recommendations.
Uniqueness
Kurtosis -0.85656 Almost like a semicircle.
Skewness -0.40661 Very close to normal but values are a little concentrated on the right tail.
Relevance
Kurtosis -1.10001 Kurtosis almost like a block.
Skewness -0.2446 Very close to normal but values are a little concentrated on the right tail.
Loyalty
Kurtosis -1.194744 Kurtosis almost like a block
Page 4 of 32
Skewness -0.223608 Very close to normal but values are a little concentrated on the right tail.
Popularity
Kurtosis -0.141051503 Very close to normal
Skewness -0.914234899 Fairly skewed. Values are concentrated on the right side (tail)

MAJOR CONLCUSIONS
• Income has no impact on relevance or loyalty or popularity of the product
• Most of the products that are familiar to the people are the only ones that come
in their income bracket
• Familiarity builds popularity
• Uniqueness of the product makes it relevant to the people
• Loyalty comes from relevance
RECOMMENDATIONS
1. As can be observed in the age group 30-39, the income is highest fast food
chains can perform specific demographic targeting.
2. In the age group 60-69, as the mean average becomes the least, these could act
as the lesser targeted audience.
3. As the uniqueness is more preferred in the age group of 30-39, this could be
the parameter kept in mind while performing demographic targeting.
4. Increasing the relevance for the age groups 20-29 and 50-59 can help create
larger consumer base
5. Since across all age groups, familiarity is equally spread, a given fast food
company needs to invest heavily in marketing that targets emotional aspect to
convert familiarity into loyalty and thus get an edge over other companies
6. As most loyalty is shown by the age-group 30-39, special offers can be provided
to the loyal customers and simultaneously to increase the loyalty in the age
group 20-29 and 50-59, primary research to understand their consumption
pattern can be observed, using which they can be converted into loyal
customers.
7. As we have observed in the previous parameters as well, fast food networks
are most popular in the age bracket of 30-39, as they are the high income
bracket who might be able to spend more, however the other two age groups

20-29 and 50-59 are also the emerging demographies and hence could act as
potential demographies.
8. Popularity across all regions is same for all fast-food companies. Therefore, to
compete in such a geography, the company may conduct a thorough PESTLE
analysis and appeal to the segment that has been ignored by expanding its
market.
9. Most loyalty is observed in region 3 and 4 while region 2 appears to be the
emerging market and is show casing growing loyalty towards these fast food
networks and hence increasing loyalty in this region would help create better
profitability
10. Relevance in region 1 can be increased by understanding their consumer
behavior
11. Though in region 2 the relevance for fast food is growing but still there is a lot
of potential to get at par with region 3 and 4
12. Familiarity across regions is not similar therefore competing fast food
companies should extend familiarity to loyalty to retain their customers
otherwise the customers will switch to other products.
13. More uniqueness is preferred in the region3, therefore understanding the needs
of the customers more variations can be introduced in their product categories
14. The Hypothesis tests for Brand Equity across Brand Familiarity, Uniqueness,
Relevance, Loyalty, Popularity and Income were all accepted. This shows that
it is a highly competitive market. Primary recommendation for the company
here is to invest in the Customer Experience and make connections with the
customer by leveraging social media.
