Ch. 14 - Retailing

This product is best retailed in department stores. They offer a wide range of products to the end-users under one roof. So, when the consumer goes to an athletic store like Paragon Sports, they will more likely end up buying the waterproof, sturdy backpack, that comes in a variety of colors and sizes.

The evoked set for my product is other similar brands such as Osprey, Camel-back and Patagonia. Unlike these other brands, Fjällräven comes with many innovating features such as being water resistant and a water pouch. This makes the target consumers choose it, when in stores.
