Ramen is a popular and convenient food product that has a global market value of $51 billion. More than 5 billion single serve packages of this instant noodle dish are consumed annually in the USA, and the demand is increasing. Most single service packages retail for under 50 cents. Single serve ramen offers a variety of flavors, textures and ingredients to suit different tastes and preferences.

 

Our target market is college students and small office workers who need a quick and easy meal solution. We also aim to reach people who live alone or often eat solo. Ramen is a popular and versatile dish that can be enjoyed in many ways, but Ramen Now offers the best combination of speed, convenience, and flexibility.

Ramen Now is protected by three US patents that cover the application, design, and technology of the device. The patent numbers are 11297857, 9655468, and D768423. These patents give us a competitive edge and prevent imitation by other companies. We have complete engineering CAD files and working prototypes, we are ready to start working with a manufacturing partner.  

 

We plan to launch Ramen Now and distribute it with Amazon FBA, where we can leverage the existing customer base and distribution network. We will also pursue retail opportunities in relevant markets, such as campus bookstores, convenience stores, and office supply stores.

 

Our marketing strategy will focus on social media and search display advertising, where we can reach our target audience effectively and efficiently. We will also promote Ramen Now on college campuses, where we can generate word-of-mouth and brand awareness. We will appeal to both the end users and their family members, who may buy Ramen Now as a gift for their college bound children.

 

Ramen Now faces competition from other methods of preparing ramen, such as microwaves, stoves, or kettles. However, none of these methods can match Ramen Now's unique value proposition of being fast, easy, clean, and flexible. Ramen Now is the ultimate solution for ramen lovers who want to enjoy their favorite dish anytime, anywhere.
