Assessment Instructions

The case study and SWOT will be made available in the Assessment section of the Marketing Principles and Practice Moodle site. The SWOT is incomplete so you should add further points from the case study, and possibly the Asda website. Read through the case study and identify additional points that have not already been highlighted in the SWOT you have been given. Submit the SWOT as a table, including the points you have added, and place this at the start of your Marketing Plan. The SWOT will not be marked and should not be included in the overall word count for this piece of work. The information in the SWOT is there to help you justify your decisions. You should not suggest a strategy that you cannot justify using SWOT information. You should also use the SWOT information to support your marketing mix decisions.
