Abstract

The authors applied the concept of customer experience, advocated by Bernd H. Schmitt, to the IGNIS series, skincare products manufactured and sold by ALBION Co. Ltd., who launched a line of products that contain honey collected under the Ginza Bees Project. This paper discusses this product development case, as we were able to obtain a certain level of results.
