The case raises the issue of trust versus control and intended relationship between the parent and daughter companies. This is the second in a three-case series, 'Panda Furniture (A) to (B1)'. A condensed version, 'Panda Furniture (A + B)', of this case and 'Panda Furniture (A)', is also available. Follow up cases 'Panda Furniture (B2)', and 'Panda Furniture (C)', have also been produced.
