Understanding The Company
●   M&M's were born in 1941.
●   The name comes from Forrest
    Mars and Bruce Murrie from
    Hershey's.


                                                        Traditional M&M's packaging has been
                                                        The tubes since 1941 and the bags
                                                        Since 1948.


                                       M&M's have always had a special
                                       interest in their customers. In 1976 a
                                       research study showed the red dye
    M&M's have had their traditional   amarath was linked to known
    Trademark since 1950. In 1954      carcinogens, even though red M&M's
    The “m” was changed from black
    To white and in 1960 m&m's         did not contain this dye, they were
    Started making red, yellow, and    taken off the market for 10 years and
    Green candies.                     replaced by the color orange which is
                                       still sold today.

The tagline “Melts in your mouth, not your hands.” was invented in 1950.
Understanding The Company
               In 1980 the company went international.
               Today M&M's are sold in over 100
               Countries all over the world.

Company Philosophy
       ● We understand the company bases its
                 fundamentals on Fun.
       They achieve this with largely using colors
              and eye appealing displays.
         These, not only attract the attention of
               children but also of adults.
        ● The company is greatly interested in

                  maintaining tradition.
  ●   We need to understand that even though we
             are working for the subsidiary
          M&M's we are working primarily for
                   Mars Incorporated.

Digital Signage Systems

                    Technology in DSS
●   DSS usually are composed of powerful LCD or LED
                           displays.
      ● Although the most common is to find these

            displays in 2D, Toshiba and Sharp
       have introduced 3D screens that don't need
          glasses to appreciate this added value.
          ● The network structure by which the

                  information is displayed,
             is usually via VGA, HDMI, or DVI
                        cable formats.
        ● With Cellular technology and Bluetooth,

           DSS can be highly interactive with the
                   customers and viewers.
Identifying The Aimed Customer
●   The main objective is to design a
    Digital Signage System for a
    supermarket in the United States.
●   Therefore, we need to identify an
    Aimed Customer.
●   The Aimed Customer(s) are the typical
    American families of now a days.
●   Why?
    Usually it's the families who attend
    supermarkets for their weekly/monthly
    grocery shopping.
●   These families are usually composed of
                                              Image taken from NBC's Modern Family
    two adults, and children ranging from 1
    20 years of age. Varying ages in all
    cases.
Linkage with our Purpose

in a supermarket in the United States.

● We know it must be sponsored by M&M's,
