Literature Review/Theoretical Framework
The concept of selling water in drinking bottle has been in fashion for many years. However, botte has been recent seller in the beverage market. Various companies have been investing their money in the beverage industries and selling of water bottles in the market (Rundh 2016). Marketing and promotion of water bottles have been popular in the market by various companies in the last decade. The Mount Franklin has been focusing in its promotion and marketing of packaged water bottles in the Australian market (Vedachalam et al. 2017). The results have been positive and focused n the money making market. The Australian market has increased exponentially to 730 million litres in 2012 selling and making turnover of $600.7 million.
A range of peer reviewed journals will be used in this section including journals on impact of packaging drinking bottles in the market. Data and information might be collected from both primary and secondary data sources. This help in creating a framework related to components of the research and highlight gaps in research.
This section will help in understanding a basic concept of the marketing and promotion of the drinking water bottles in the market by any organization. This section with help in answering research questions initialised in earlier sections. Various customers of the research will be discussed in below sections. Therefore, an idea of the drinking water packaging process can be built from this section inwards. This section will highlight various components and factors that will be required for modification of the engineering design process of packaging drinking water bottles.
The beverage industry has been increasing in the Australian market. The market has been growing exponentially reaching a market size of $1.3 billion. However, in last 10 years between 2001 and 2011, bottled industry has been growing by 75% and reaching to 597 million litres per annum. However, the global market has been increasing by 90 to 218 billion litres per annum (Tua et al. 2017).
The growth in the Australian market in beverage industry has been an attribute to many companies including Mount Franklin. The water consumption in the country has been increasing on a daily basis in the society. The company has been able to create a legacy in the market by selling the maximum number of packaged water bottles in the market. The revenue generated by the company has been astonishing in the market. The leaders in this industry has been continuously creating competition for the Mount Franklin in the market (Shoeib et al. 2016). Therefore, the company has to change its strategies and modification in the engineering design of packaged drinking bottle.
Bottles can be categorised according to the source of water and process of treatment of water. However, on this basis there are five main categories of bottled waters and sold in the market. There are different types of water including spring water, mineral water, purified water and flavoured water.
Spring water: Spring water has been the most sold water in the packed bottles. Over 55% of all the bottles have spring water in it. It has been originated from underground aquifers and processed naturally (Rossi et al. 2015). Spring water can be filtered through the crust if the earth by passing through sand, minerals, rocks, granite and other fractured rocks.
Mineral water: Mineral water is a natural commodity and collected from underground. It has been scientifically proven for having at least 250 ppm of total dissolved solids (Cak et al. 2016). These minerals have been occurring naturally in the water that contains both normal and sparkling water. Salts, gases and sulphur compounds are the main components of the mineral water.
Purified water: Purified drinking water has been commutated by a filtration process by eliminating unwanted particles from it that cannot be consumed by human. However, there have been different procedures of the purification of water including microfiltration, ultraviolet oxidation, and ultrafiltration and electro dialysis (Jinkarn and Suwannaporn 2015). The purification process have been subjected so that pure minerals are not destroyed from water.
Sparkling Water: Sparkling water has been effervescent beverage consisting of there that has been pressurised dissolved carbon dioxide (Fisher et al. 2015). This carbonization process can be used in the soft drinks. However, there are no added colours and flavours in the product.
The current design of the bottle will be discussed in this section. The design of the bottle has been reviewed properly in order to maintain a good image in the market. Mount Franklin has been the leading company in bottled water brand in the market. It has been capturing 40% of the total market of Australia. The company has seven different sized bottles from 250 mL to 2 L. The 600 mL bottle has gone through redesigning for providing light weight to bottle (Brei and Tadajewski 2015). The shape of the bottle has been kept round at corners and vertical. The sides are labelled for providing aesthetic look.
Implications – the research gap
The research has been focusing on the importance of the packaged drinking water for marketing purposes of the product of the company. The literature review section of the research has been able to demonstrate the research questions. However, there have been some gaps in the research related to use of previous literature. The characteristics of the present packaging has not been properly mentioned in the literature (Manoli and Voutsa 2016). The study is useful in understanding the types of water available in the market. The packaging characteristics has been discussed in the research
This section deals with the methodology that will help in responding to the research questions and objectives. The following section disuses about the research approach and data collection procedure respectively. Both the sections will provide proper justifications for selection of methodology.
Research approach and justification
There are two of types of research approach including inductive and deductive approach. The inductive approach deals with the observations and theories related to the research topic. The deductive approach deals with the research questions and objectives (Guzmán and Stoler 2018). The scientific investigation if the drinking packaged water has been done in the approach. The deductive approach has been maintaining the importance of the packaged drinking water bottle in the Mount Franklin. A qualitative approach has been taken by the researcher in order to progress in the research.
Details of specific data collection techniques
Data collection methods are of two types including primary and secondary method. Primary data collection method helps in collecting data from organizing survey with participates. Online survey are conducted with proper questionnaires related to the research topic. Secondary data collection method deals with collection of data from secondary data sources including online journals, articles and reports. These journals need to be related to the impact of the packaged drinking water bottle (Pacheco et al. 2018). Secondary data can be collected from these journals. Thematic analysis can be done with the help of creating themes related to the importance of packaged drinking water bottle for marketing. There will be 8 survey questionnaires related to the impact of packaged drinking water. The will be 50 customers surveyed who are using packaged drinking bottle of Mount Franklin. A random sampling will be used in order to select participants.
