Soup Cans, 200 Campbell

Repetition and Movement. When visual elements repeat, we find a movement and energy associated with that repetition. In Andy Warhol s 200 Campbell Soup Cans, the repeating cans seem to vibrate and move with unending energy. 

If you just have one target, a good carrier is a Campbell Soup can. Put a layer of paper toviing in the bottom of the can to act as a cushion. This will enable you to carry the greande in a pants or jacket pocket without fear of its breaking. 

Known for his silk-screened portraits and provocative paintings of Campbell s soup cans (and electric chairs), Andy Warhol is also remembered for his prescient statement, In the future, everyone will be famous for 15 minutes. ... 

Like the soup scene. We decided that some hot soup would be welcome, and so R. brought out three cans of Campbell soup for the three of us. But one was cream mushroom, one asparagus, and one tomato.

These cans are constructed from a molded thermoplastic can body (polypropylene, high density polyethylene) and an easy-open-end (EOE) of coated metal. In addition, flexible pouches have made inroad as an alternative for metal cans in certain markets such as packaged tuna fish. 

STABILIZING PRICING Managers can dampen the bullwhip effect by eliminating promotions and using everyday low pricing (EDLP). The elimination of promotions removes forward buying by retailers and results in orders that match customer demand. P G, Campbell Soup, and several other manufacturers have implemented EDLP to dampen the bullwhip effect. 

We first illustrate the impact of a trade promotion on forward buying behavior of the retailer. Consider a Cub Foods supermarket selling chicken noodle soup manufactured by the Campbell Soup Company.
