企业故事汇｜战略管理美国网红Panera面包店：原料透明与战略一致（下）在稳定销售和利润的同时，Panera开始运用攻击性的价值主张来吸引顾客到店消费。它的武器是原料透明。早在2004的，Panera就宣布只采购没有使用过抗生素的鸡肉，这与它主打健康的消费理念是一致的。2014年，Panera宣布到2016年底在食谱中取消所有人工添加剂，只提供100%清洁的食品。“食物就是食物”。不要人工香料，防腐剂、甜味剂和色素，包括阿斯巴甜、发泡剂、玉米糖浆和猪油。它给出了一份名为“不要和不要”的拒绝清单，对店内使用的全部450种调料进行了审核，列出了96种人工添加剂。这一举措震动了整个行业参考教材《战略管理》（第2版）李振福、孙忠著《战略管理》（第7版）希尔、琼斯、周长辉著《管理学原理》（第2 版）韩瑞著《创业管理》吴何著《现代企业管理》（第2版）吴何著2019-11-2210 min
企业故事汇｜战略管理美国网红Panera面包店：原料透明与战略一致（上）Panera面包店成立于1981年，是一家快餐店，主要销售现场制作的欧式面包、咖啡和简餐。在美国和加拿大有2000多家店面，是全美排名前10位的快餐连锁店。Panera最早只是一家面包店，过去人们到面包店通常是为了买面包回到家里吃。但创始人Ron Shaich注意到，在中午的时候有些顾客买面包之后会要求店员切片，然后配上从别的店里买的火腿等自己制作三明治当午餐。大街上有许多三明治店，顾客为什么要这么做？因为Panera的面包不是烤好之后再送到店里加热，而是每天在店里烤制的。这一得到验证的发现成为Panera面包店提供快餐的开始，也是它所强调的更健康和更新鲜的价值主张的形成期。用创始人Shaich的话来说，他发现在市场上这样一批用户，他们对加工快餐服务有所不满，开始追求食物消费过程中的一种自尊感。参考教材《战略管理》（第2版）李振福、孙忠著《战略管理》（第7版）希尔、琼斯、周长辉著《管理学原理》（第2 版）韩瑞著《创业管理》吴何著《现代企业管理》（第2版）吴何著2019-11-2209 min
