2 In recent years, a new consumer segment, the Foodie, has emerged causing marketers to re-evaluate their approach when targeting these trendy customers. Foodies look for high quality, locally-grown, and flavorful ingredients to use in unique recipes. They are devoted to upscale, sensual ingredients and enjoy the consumption of food and beverages. The Pennsylvania Simply Sweet Onion Cooperative is dedicated to providing Pennsylvania with a high-quality, nutritious sweet onion product. The Cooperative involves producers who are growing this delicious sweet onion in two regions within the Commonwealth. Additionally, the Cooperative strives to meet the needs of our market, those who desire a nutritious, fresh product, but that is unique and different from onions currently available. The Cooperative was started in 2006 by a group of sweet onion farmers in Washington County, PA. The board consists of a representative from The Pennsylvania State University, Pennsylvania Vegetable Growers Association, four Simply Sweet growers and a sales associate. The Cooperative has registered the brand name Pennsylvania Simply Sweet. The Pennsylvania Simply Sweet Onion Cooperative currently has shipping and packaging facilities near the two production areas in Washington and Lancaster Counties. They can readily supply the market with a fresh, quality ingredient and in the future they can adapt the product to any changes Foodies desire. Between 1983 and 2005, overall onion consumption increased by over 70 percent, from 12.2 pounds per capita to an estimated 21 pounds. 1 Historically, fresh-onion consumption has grown by 2.65 percent for every 1 percent increase in the population. According to the USDA, men eat 40 percent more onions than women. 2 Pennsylvania Simply Sweet Onions will be positioned to appeal to Foodies between the ages of 45 to 54 years. Region Pennsylvania Counties Included Regional Profile Philadelphia Region: Philadelphia, Bucks, Montgomery, Chester, Northampton, Lehigh, and Lancaster. Pittsburgh Region: Washington, Allegheny, and Number of households within Target Market range Number of persons within Target Market range 186, ,344 Westmoreland. Market Size/Potential In the U.S. sweet onions are consumed more often by consumers aged 48 to 57 years of age and in households with no children. High income families account for 41 percent of all onions consumed. These consumers prefer onions displayed in bulk and buy bulb onions once every two to three weeks. With consumption of specialty foods being highest in the northeast U.S. 3, the potential to market a specialty sweet onion should be investigated. Market Needs Foodies want: - specialty foods that are of high quality. 4 - specialty food items to be available in supermarkets. - to experiment with food ingredients and create flavorful meals using innovative recipes. - to purchase fresh, local ingredients and use them to create a sensory experience. Market Trends 64 percent of all consumers purchase specialty foods. 5 Onions are ranked 5 th among all vegetables in value and consumption. 72 percent of fresh and processed onions were purchased at retail stores and considered as home foods. 88 percent of consumers purchase foods and ingredients for meals from supermarkets An average American eats 21 pounds of onions per year in 2005, up from 18 pounds in Source: 2000 Census Tanner, Ron. Today s Specialty Food Consumer. Specialty Food magazine. Oct Tanner, Ron. 5 Tanner, Ron.
3 Foodies are a lucrative market because they are willing to pay a premium price. 6 Target Market Profile Demographic Psychographic Behavioral Married, college-educated adults, 45 to 54 years of age 7 Average household income of $93,150 per year person sized households Desire to create new recipes with food ingredients Wish for new flavor or taste Considering food as a hobby 8 Supports local production Willing to pay higher prices in exchange for food experiences Travel to find a unique foods to try in new recipes Interested and challenged by experimentation, techniques and ingredients that they are not familiar with 85 percent like to experience new recipes 9 Most sweet onions are marketed internationally as differentiated products. Vidalia, New York Empire Sweets, Texas Spring Sweets, Walla Walla, Mayan, and OSO are the main industry participants. Larger onion growers produce Vidalia sweet onions. Keystone Fruit Marketing, Inc. s Lima, Peru office manages a large production facility where Maya Sweets are grown, then imports them to the U.S. Regional retailers selling sweet onions are Giant, Giant Eagle, Weis, and Wegman s.

Direct Direct Indirect Indirect Indirect Indirect Most sweet onion growers are members of the National Onion Association. The cooperatives work together to produce and market the product. In the retail market sweet onions are sold in bulk or 2 to 5 pound bags. Our largest competitor, The Vidalia Sweet Onion, is marketed as being nutritious and low in fat, calories, and carbohydrates. Vitamin C, Calcium, and Iron are some other nutritional aspects of sweet onions. Various sweet onions are sold in grocery stores as a specialty item during their harvest season. Roadside stands, public farmers markets, and privately-owned farm markets also sell sweet onions. These sources provide viable outlets for this nutritional, flavorful ingredient. Key Planning Assumptions The Cooperative has a large number of growers whom can provide an adequate supply of sweet onions. Foodies desire for fresh local products is on the rise. The Cooperative s existing packing infrastructure has the capability of meeting increasing consumer demand. Availability of Pennsylvania Simply Sweet Onions peaks at a time where there is little competition with other sweet onions. 6 Cassedy, Kathleen. FOODIES: San Francisco Nurtures A Niche.
