RATIONALE
My name is Kate-Lann Wilson, and for my Music SBA I have decided to analyze these
advertisements because they have a nice rhythm of my liking and some of which I remember and
loved to hear as a child on the television or radio. The company, SM Jaleel Co. Ltd, has
manufactured both Fruta Kool Kidz and Trinidad Juices. They offer a variety of different
flavours to enjoy and boosts your energy and mood. Carib manufactured by Carib Brewery is an
alcoholic beverage loved by many adults in any event as it is known to bring amusement to any
“lime” with family and friends. Catch, produced by Associated Brands Industries Ltd, is a soft
crispy caramel, chocolate bar with a variety of flavours that many people as well as myself loves
to have for a snack. Dairy Dairy is the nation’s finest milk, very nutritious for children. TTMF
offers mortgages to people so that they can acquire homes. This is a way of keeping someone
homeless should they not have the funds in hand to buy a house. Republic Bank provides a
secure place for an individual to store their money as well as offers loans, investments etcetera.
Caribbean Airlines, the state-owned airline of Trinidad and Tobago, offering flights to all around
the Caribbean and some other destinations internationally.
