{Standard Tissue}
You might think a firm producing a standard product like toilet
tissue would adopt an undifferentiated strategy. However, this
market has industrial segments and consumer segments.
Industrial buyers want an economical, single-ply product sold
in boxes of a hundred rolls. The consumer market demands a
more versatile product in smaller quantities. Within the
consumer market, the product is differentiated with
designer print or no print, cushioned
or non-cushioned, scented or
unscented, economy priced or luxury
priced, and single, double, or triple
roll. Fort Howard Corporation, the
market share leader in industrial
toilet paper, does not even sell to the
consumer market.
