Executive summary
Zoos Victoria (ZV) aims to increase public awareness of the dangers of non-sustainable palm oil by conducting a campaign called “Don’t Palm Us Off” (DPUO). This report aims to help ZV improve the campaign, namely in how ZV can increase awareness of Certified Sustainable Palm Oil (CSPO) as a viable alternative to non-sustainable palm oil, therefore consequently raising public pressure on politicians and corporations to pass legislations on palm oil and to source palm oil from CSPO accredited producers respectively.
The report starts by explaining what CSPO is and contrasting it with alternatives including Greenpalm palm oil and non-CSPO oil. Then, the external environment affecting CSPO is analysed using Porter’s 5 forces and the PEST and SWOT analyses. A consumer analysis, involving both the corporate consumers and individual consumers is then conducted, including consumer trends. Finally, a marketing mix analysis (4Ps) was presented.
