Red Mango

Situation: Red Mango is a Korean brand of all-natural, low-fat yogurt, and is part of


increasingly popular Korean pop culture. Its first Philippine store was opened in January 2009 by
fresh graduates Sherika Tanmantiong, Krystele Tanmantiong, Kelvin Gaisano, and Carlo Lim.
The concept was suggested by one of their friends from New York who saw the health craze and
popular trend of yogurt, which became part of how people live and eat. As more people travel,
they are exposed to different cultures and become more open to trying new things. The owners
also found the trends towards higher eat-out incidents, more Koreans migrating to the
Philippines, plus many Filipinos with a sweet tooth, to be big pluses to launch the brand in the
Philippines. Their typical target market is 18-45 years old health-conscious individuals.

1. Identify the pain points Red Mango was solving in launching the brand.

- The specific pain point that the Red Mango owners saw before launching the brand is
that Filipinos have become more health-conscious and along with this is the popular
trend of yogurt which, not many brands are available at the time (2009). These pain
points are what lead to Red Mango’s launch in the Philippines in 2009.

2. Are the pain points identified by Red Mango still valid? Explain.

- Yes, these pain points are definitely still valid. More so today, in fact. The pandemic has
caused quite a stir on people’s consciousness towards them and their families’ health.
However, people these days are gearing towards the purchase of vitamins and health
supplements and even fruits and vegetables as opposed to healthy dessert type food such
as yogurt.

3. What value propositions of Red Mango do they offer to their customers?

- The value proposition that Red Mango offers is that “value is about offering the right
product and the right way to deliver it.”
Customers prefer control and variety over coupons, and customization and co-creation
are essential. As a result, clients can choose from 112 varieties in five to six self-service
machines in the company's storefronts. Customers who pay by weight are more likely to
spend more.
By measuring visitor satisfaction feedback and social networking, Red Mango assures
that it is providing value to its clients.
Aside from the obvious health benefits, the consumer benefit taken from Red Mango is
Emotional benefit. With the amount of customization available with Red Mango,
customers get a sense of “ownership” with the food they purchased because they, in a
way, “made it” specifically to their liking, and also guilt-free because it is healthy.
