Nestle KitKat is a product that can be loved by everyone but also  target market should be chosen when we launch our product. The main target market of KitKat will be the children of age group 8-14 years as the children are very fond of chocolates. The secondary target will be youths of 15-30yrs. Both male and female having higher income can also be targeted. The KitKat can be easily available in urban areas rather than rural areas. Middle class and lower class people having positive attitude towards chocolates are the targeted customers.  Middle class people having good income especially of urban areas should be targeted when marketing strategies are planned.
