Research Introduction


A research on franchising in Sticky Pavilion KL Malaysia. Sticky first came to Malaysia from Australia in 2009. They have a group of highly skilled and dedicated confectioners, recognized internationally as specialists in high quality, hand-made, rock candy. As for Sticky in Malaysia, they only focus on rock candies. They have currently only two franchises in Malaysia, one in Pavilion KL and the other in 1Utama Shopping Centre. What makes the Sticky candy so special is that they are art that can be eaten.

The hand-made candy making process is fascinating to watch, and, when mastered by a skilled confectioner, can lead to beautiful and highly intricate designs. Their designs mostly are based on the flavour of the candy itself. For example, they have grape, lemon and apple design in the candy itself just to show the customers what flavour is it. Besides graphical of fruits, Sticky also came up with wording designs like name of a person.

Their confectioners are some of the most experienced, well trained and professional candy makers working anywhere in the world today. A special combination of craftsman, entertainer, laborer, sculptor and chef is what they described themselves.

            Sticky candies are has already been in Malaysia for a couple of years. Their promotion basically is just face-to-face approach and giving out samples for customers in their outlets. There are no massive advertising strategies and exposes to the consumers in Malaysia by it be in any mass media. Due to their new branding identity and weak advertising campaign, customers might just treat them as just another ordinary candy brand.
