We would like the agency to do the face to face interview from the “Asian group”. Also, we would like the agency to help us to do a focus group from the “none-Asian group” as we want to hear what they think as a group rather than individual. Lan Han is trying to focus these two groups of people first as they are more likely to consume our products. What recommendation would you give from the agency professional point of view? How many interviews or focus groups should be done to get the most validate information? Should Lan Han focus more on qualitative than quantitative?

Lan Han is planning to work with 2Sisters Food Group (Boparan) plant. However, recent (Oct.2017) negative press comments in regard to quality procedure at the 2Sisters Food (Boparan) plant could have some effect on our intentions.
Budget
