Asian cuisine is a very popular takeout option for many consumers. It can be intimidating to try and make many Asian dishes from scratch, which is a big reason why consumers often just choose to order it instead of tackling a big culinary project. However, eating out can get expensive, and we believe there's a lot of opportunity for Asian offerings that can be sold in the grocery store as a substitute for eating out.

Deliverables
  1. Propose a specific Asian food or dish that could be sold in the grocery store so people could make it at home

    • Why did you choose this specific food/dish?

  2. Describe what the grocery store offering would look like. For example:

    • Would it be pre-made or would you have ingredients that consumers would use to make from scratch?
    • Who do you see as the target consumer for your Asian food idea?
