Strength
The campaign will ensure continual growth of the company. Due to the increasing amount of customers knowing of the pasta menu, this will attract customers. In return, Pizza Hut gains new customers and also they will attract more customers into restaurant dine-ins instead of ordering deliver. This will allow them to make full use of the facilities they have.
Weakness
The service at Pizza Hut will worsen, as the staffs are not able to adapt to the increasing amount of people visiting the franchise therefore unable to satisfy the needs of the customer.

Some main strengths of Trader Joe’s are the strong brand image, their employees, organic and private label products, customer loyalty, and offered unique products. Trader Joe’s strong brand image helps them to attract and retain more customers. Their private labels are named according to the background and nationality of food. They offered an extensive line of private label items with brand names such as Trader Joe’s, Trader Ming’s, Trader Jose, Trader Giotto.

The company described its target market as “intelligent, educated, inquisitive individuals” and they reach this customer by opening store among well-educated residents (Ager & Roberto, 2014). Their customers are too loyal towards their brand image so they keep coming back. Instead of targeting all customers, they need to target new customers in order to grow their business and to keep being a leader in the retail industry in the US. And also, their employee are valuable assets of the company, who led them towards the further growth of the company, therefore they are treated fairly and trained to provide the nice and friendly service to Trader Joe’s customers.

Plus, they contribute 15.4% of employee's salary towards retirement Saving. Furthermore, they offer good health and others benefits even to part-time employees (Ager & Roberto, 2014).
Pizza Hut Restaurant: Siblings Dan and Forthright Carney obtained $600 from their mom to open a pizzeria – then a novel idea – in Wichita in 1958. It was an enormous hit (giving without end free pizza on opening day didn't hurt), and diversifying started a year later.
Chick-fil-A first got its start when the founder, Truett Cathy was born in 1921. He opened his first restaurant, the Dwarf Grill in 1946, and in 1964 he invented the Original Chicken Sandwich. Three years later in 1967, the first Chick-fil-A restaurant was opened in Atlanta, Georgia. From that beginning 48 years ago, the chain has remained family owned and has grown to almost 2,000 restaurants with sales nearing $6 billion a year ("History," n.d.).
Chili’s originated with wanting to become a place for people to hang out with good company over some food and a drink or two. This restaurant is about creating a connection with family and friends that integrate over the love of food. The first location was opened in Dallas, Texas in 1975. It was first a post office before it became a little hangout place named Chili’s. The company was founded by Larry Lavine which is now taken over by Brinker Incorporated. Larry’s idea of Chili’s was going to be a laidback place where people can have fun and hangout. He wanted a menu that was affordable to people and wanted to create American food using a Texan-Mexican themed menu. In 1983, Larry was smart to sell the company to Brinker Incorporated.
The NRFC must find a way to position their product so that they can draw in current consumers that are loyal to frozen and take out pizza companies. This could be hard since “pizza kit” that is being presented is new to the market, so the success (or failure) of the concept has not been proven. However, the biggest issue may be the time-sensitivity of the launch. Kraft has already done market research for a similar refrigerated pizza and has plans to launch the product in 6 months. If the NRFC wants to achieve the first mover advantage that helped them be successful in the Contadina Pasta launch, they will have to get the product to the market quickly. Nevertheless, after reviewing the data I believe there is a strong market for a successful launch, but have some recommendations to ensure their
