Proposed Marketing Mix Strategy for Indonesian Restaurant in The Netherlands (Case Study: Pasundan)
Indonesian and Asian culture has had a profound influence on Dutch culture and society due to colonialization. Food is one area where this cultural mix has had a significant impact. Many parts of Indonesian cuisine were adopted and became popular dishes in the Netherlands until now. However, vast number of Indonesian food enthusiasts cannot considerably enhance sales of Pasundan, an Indonesian restaurant in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Based on analysis of the root cause it was found that some elements from 7P marketing mix, namely Price, Place, Promotion, and Process were the problematic ones. This study aims to generate findings to propose new marketing mix for Pasundan. In order to propose new marketing mix external and internal analysis is performed to gain a comprehensive and in-depth understanding of company difficulties. External analysis focuses on PESTEL, competitor analysis, and online consumer analysis. Marketing Mix (7P) and Segmenting, Targeting, and Positioning (STP) are included in the internal study. The proposed strategies are put together into a new marketing mix plan that is expected to provide a solution to the existing business problem and can be implemented by Pasundan.
