Note: Please use point form in your answers. Please use the grid provided.
Analysis
1. (1 mark) What is the major hurdle in introducing insect-based CPGs in Canada?
The major hurdle is the cultural perception and acceptance of eating insects in Canada. Historically, people in North America have had a strong distaste for insects, described as a “yuck” factor, so consuming them as food was challenging for many consumers.
2. (4marks) We use the PESTEL analysis to identify macro factors that might have an impact on a company’s strategy. For Entomo, which two or three of the PESTEL elements require the company’s attention in conducting its planning?
PESTEL element
Why do you select this element?
- Social
- Technological
- Environmental
- Social acceptance is important due to the cultural distaste for eating insects. Entomo must address the “yuck” factor and shift perceptions towards consuming insects as a sustainable and nutritious food source.
- World’s largest food-grade automated farming technology
- Given the sustainability benefits of insect farming, i.e.,
lower land and water usage compared to traditional livestock, highlighting these aspects can support growing environmental concerns and the demand for sustainable products.
3. (4 marks) Who are Entomo’s potential customers, what needs, or interests, do they have that might lead to sales of insect food products? Potential customers
Needs or Interests that might lead to the use of insect food products?
- LOHAS consumers
- Generation Z group
- LOHAS consumers value health and sustainability, making them potential customers for insect-based products due to their environmental benefits and nutritional profile.
- Generation Z is young, sustainability-conscious, and open to new food experiences, so these consumers are more willing to try insect-based products.
Conclusions
4. (4 marks) What do you conclude from your reading of the case and your analysis?
Conclusion
What case information supports this conclusion
- Cultural acceptance is important
- Need for targeting niche markets
- The historical lack of an insect-eating tradition in North America shows overcoming the cultural barriers 2

Hello Frederick,
While you were in London, I went through your notes, and you came up with a potential design for bigger cargo that would have enabled twice as many parcels to be kept in the cargo hold. However, Rockfish notified me through email that they had been unsuccessful in their effort to get a contract with a new company because they were unable to provide prices that were reasonable enough for the volume of huge products that needed to be delivered. I'm simply curious whether you were purposely impeding the company's success since you knew it would promote your career by assuring you a promotion. I believe you should reconsider sharing that work.
