(d) What are your research objectives?
I am interested in this area so I selected this topic. Also I was a trainee at marketing department
at Munchee (CBL). Consider that I have more experience that I selected area. So I get
experienced about low performance of biscuit segment. In order to that I chose Munchee Carol
Biscuit’s low performance. And also CBL Munchee is one of the fastest growing company in Sri
Lanka. CBL have 60% domestic market share in Sri Lanka. So I choose CBL Munchee. There
are several product categories that manufacturing in CBL. Among them I chose Carol segment
for my research investigation. Introducing Carol segment is the good competition in with Little
Lion who is the main competitor for the CBL power. CBL did good marketing for its Carol
Segment. But its rank went down.
