How about the lion ball mark edible oil brand introduction

Lion ball mark is an old edible oil brand that originated in Shantou, Guangdong Province but is rooted in Hong Kong, with a history longer than the knife mark, and is an excellent brand in Hong Kong, and has won the gold medal of "Trusted Brand" for ten consecutive years. In the eyes of Hong Kong people, edible oil is "either a knife mark or a lion ball mark", and the lion ball mark is the only brand that retains an oil refinery in Hong Kong, which is more friendly to Hong Kong people, and has been the retail champion of edible oil in Hong Kong supermarkets since 2012.
 
In 1995, it established a new factory in Panyu, Guangzhou, aiming at the mainland market, but failed to achieve the same success as the knife mark, with Guangzhou citizens having a brand preference of 11.4% for the knife mark and only 3% for the lion ball mark, and the commercial tentacles have not been able to reach out to Guangdong.
 
Because of the establishment of factories in two places, the lion ball mark products are divided into mainland version and Hong Kong version. Due to the small number of people in Hong Kong and its proximity to raw material production areas, the lion ball mark has only oil refineries and no crushing plants in Hong Kong. Therefore, the Hong Kong version of the product is different from the mainland version and most of the products of other brands, and the Hong Kong refinery directly imports the crude oil from overseas to extract it. The mainland version of the products are all made by double helix physical pressing, the process does not add any chemical components, and the Hong Kong version is the same, are cold filling, nitrogen preservation, no antioxidants are added, but the mainland market Hong Kong version of the product is more expensive than the mainland version of 20% ~ 50%.
 
The failure of the lion ball mark to make a big show in the mainland is not unrelated to the single product line, and the mainland version only has peanut oil, corn oil and a canola olive oil. Peanut oil is a product launched by Lion Ball Mark since its birth, the color and fragrance are deeper than the peanut oil of the knife mark, and it is lighter than Lu flower and orchid flower, it is the most universal peanut oil, but the price of 5L is not close to the people. Corn oil 5L sells for 80 yuan, and it does not have a price advantage.
 
Only canola olive oil is the most recommended, blending 90% canola oil with 10% virgin cold-pressed olive oil to provide high oleic acid and balanced fatty acids. The raw materials come from Canada, a well-known canola producing region, and the Mediterranean, the main olive producing region, and the olives are cold-pressed, resulting in a fresher fruity aroma than ordinary virgin oils. The price of 5L is 30 yuan lower than that of 2.2L canola olive oil in 2 bottles of knife mark, and it is the first choice for canola olive oil in China.
 
In addition to the main cold-pressed olive oil, there are also light blended oils such as grape canola oil and light olive rice bran oil, which can be tasted. It is worth mentioning that in 2011, it launched edible oils with added DHA, including DHA canola oil, DHA corn oil and DHA peanut oil, as a high-end healthy edible oil that can supplement omega-3 fatty acids, which is very popular in Hong Kong, but none of the above products have entered the mainland market.
