Question
QUESTION: Discuss the role of packaging as a tool for market development with suitable illustration. -

ANSWER: Hello Monika,

Can you give me some more details about what you're trying to do?    What kind of business are you working in and where are the majority of your products currently sold?   Give me some background and I can probably help you.   This sounds like an assigned question from a class - and we don't do that.

Thanks,
Chris

QUESTION: Actually i am trying to start the business of packaging and i just want to make case study report to start my business and i required suitable examples for that.

Answer
Hello Monika,

I'm afraid that I don't know of any case studies that have proven how important packaging is.  But I do know that companies spend a great deal of money on packaging, evidently in the belief that it is very important and that the packaging communicates the brand value and that it makes sense to the target market.   I would look for articles in advertising magazines because I'm sure that there have been many case studies.

Sorry that I can't be of more help.

Chris
