Combine business intelligence and editorial excellence to reach engaged professionals across 36 leading media platforms.
Operating through the website www.mycereal.com, consumers will be able to select from more than 100 different ingredients to create and then name their own breakfast cereals. The resulting product will then be delivered to homes in a one or two week supply of single-serving portions, costing around US$1 each.
In addition to making life easier for people with particular dietary requirements or tastes, the company will also set up databases in tandem with the website, which will provide suggestions for cereals in accordance with health and nutritional criteria.
