Supermarkets are suitable for discounts, sales promotions, and such. When promoting new products, however, it's best to choose a site where there's greater exposure and more foot traffic. Additionally, kimchee-flavored chocolate is a very new idea. We need the people to first accept the idea, then the product. Therefore, I've recommended that we start the process at major shopping areas, which can lead to better promotion and dissemination of our product.
