Product concept sheet

Assessment · one sheet per candidate, same evidence for all four

Which category is this?

☐ Everyday wear ☐ Surf wear ☐ Surf gear ☐ Surf nutrition

Product

1. The person and the problem

Who uses this, and in which surf moment?

What problem does it solve better than the product they use now?

For a nutrition concept, answer the food line in each pair instead.

How does the fit, size or design work with a growing child? · Food: serving size, and how it suits a child before or after a session

Expected useful life, and how we will test it · Food: shelf life, storage and how we will test it

Repair, resale or pass-on plan · Food: packaging, refill or reorder plan

Materials and why they suit salt, sun and repeat use · Food: full ingredient list, where each one comes from and why

Supplier, manufacturing method and open questions · Food: kitchen or co-packer, batch size, allergens, labelling and hygiene rules

Work done in Mauritius, imported inputs, maker payment and credit

Food only: nutrition per serving, and the sugar, sweetener or additive lines we will not cross

Rough product sketch

Keep all four equally rough so feedback is about the product. For food, sketch the pack.

Add three colours and any badge, pattern or detail the child would actually see.

Provisional product cost

Shipping and duties

Provisional retail price

Community value option to test

Margin and assumptions still needing a quote

Who receives value, how and why

Questions for parents

Questions or tests for kids

Supplier or prototype tests

The concept solves a problem families described.

The useful-life and growth claims have a test behind them.

The premium price has a clear product reason.

The local-production claim names the maker, the work done locally and the imported inputs.

The community value option is tested rather than assumed.

Another microcommunity could adapt the product without copying Tamarin.

The candidate has the same level of evidence as the other three.
