“We need to create products that are geared towards our market and the only way we can do that is through frequent engagement with our consumers and target markets," she said during her address to shareholders of the instant coffee processing company, giving a nod to the recent use of focus groups in developing the line of flavored coffees. The Salada’s R&D team works with students from the University of the West Indies to sample the products before entering into mass production. “This has been the first time that we directly included these tertiary students in our product development processes. The candid feedback was refreshing and is being used to innovate and craft segments of our portfolio going forward,” she said.
