INTRODUCTION
The product or has to be associated to “innovation or die. This innovational attributes can become a philosophy compelling or almost parallel to that of the marketing concept (Stanton W.S 1981).
Development is often referred to as the only. This interpretation or emphasis is not too concise as development itself is more than the application of scientific planning to ensure the progress of the enterprises as a whole
A clearer idea of the is concerned with word “ improvement.” A firm that has decided to go into the manufacturing of a product that is in someway an improvement on those there competitors. If the firm wishes to have any success hey must exercise the development function right from the start.
The established business must pay a needed attention to give he product a better position in the market, otherwise it would be outrunned or out stripped by vibrant competitors.
, materials and processes by a progressive firm may have direct impact on their product.
Again, the demand for a certain circle may be of uncertain demand especially where fashion is involved and hence product development is paramount and of vital importance. New product may be introduced to checkmate or replace again (obsolete) or unsuccessful ones.
The need to smooth out seasonal sales fluctuation, exploring new opportunities and using or maximinising excess plant capacity. A new product can be a minor modification to the or in the packages of the product.
