Post WWII US and European brands expanded beyond their local borders. Country of origin and heritage were an essential part of their appeal and differentiation in export markets.

Rankings across industry sectors

• The more brands we know of that are made in a country, the more likely we are to prefer it as a Country of Origin
• A strong country brand has a halo effect on consumer brands • The degree to which a country’s brand influences a product, service or corporate brand depends upon the degree to which the associations of the country are valuable for the brand
Contributory factors to Country of Origin strength

• Globalisation has challenged the realities of Country of Origin branding • Growing differentiation between the Country of Origin of the brand, the company ownership and place of production e.g.Kronenberg brewed in Manchester by Dutch owned Heineken
• Many much loved, mass market British brands are foreign owned and produced abroad • HP sauce is owned by Heinz and made in the Netherlands • Ribena is owned by Suntory of Japan • Quaker Oats is owned by PepsiCo
• Jaffa Cakes, Mcvities Digestives, Jacob Cream Crackers owned by Yildiz

Does the UK consumer really care?
Does the UK consumer really care?Country of Origin branding with invented associations is often used as a marketing ploy
“As a nation, the British have traditionally cultivated a magpie approach to food, happily incorporating everything from curries and kebabs to pizzas into the gamut of their national diet.”
“From lasagne sandwiches to chicken tikka-flavored Blackpool rock, Briton’s eagerness to embrace ‘foreign food’ has resulted in some atrocities that other nations find hard to stomach.

The branding of Turkish food & drink products in the UK
Turkish food & drink product brandsAimed mainly at the local Turkish communityAvailable online and in niche food stores.
Turkish Food & Drink Retail brandsSimit Sarayı is positioned as a world brand, not a Turkish brand
Turkish Food & Drink Retail brandsThe Kahve Dunyasi experience is also all about products and atmosphere but only the website tells the full brand story
Turkish ethnicity and authenticity at independent kebab shops and stalls. Integrated into mainstream British culture...like Indian, Chinese, American and Italian food.
Non Branded Turkish Food & Drink Culture in the UK
“Except for the places that are visually loaded with ‘designed Turkishness’, there is a certain invisibility of modern Turkish restaurants outside the Turkish community...due to avoidance of the term ‘Turkish’.”
