Module: Enterprise – 9th December 2024 Cohort: Entry 2 and Entry 3 Skills for Further Learning & Employment Project: ‘Snacky Snacks’ Tuck Shop
Last Friday saw the grand opening of the Snacky Snack Tuck shop. Entry 3 students conducted market research to ask consumers which types of products they would like to purchase and how much they would be prepared to pay. This data was fed back to the rest of the enterprise group. All learners suggested a catchy name for the tuck shop and they analysed which space in the college would be the most appropriate in terms of accessibility and facilities. The marketing team then designed posters and sent out e-mails to announce the grand opening. Entry 2 learners spent Friday morning making the products for sale: flapjacks, chocolate chip cupcakes, chocolate-coated gingerbread, banana milkshake and bespoke Christmas decorations.When they tuck shop opened, our learners took on specific roles: Adam did a great job serving customers and remembering the product prices; Saif served mikshakes and encouraged customers to try the products, Libby-Su managed the takings and was in charge of finance and all of other learners did an amazing job behind the scenes cooking and decorating.
Massive thanks to the entire foundation department and to Mel and all of the learners.Teamwork makes the dream work!!!!!
