Ricoh Canada Inc, headquartered in Toronto, Canada, is a fully owned subsidiary of Japanese technology giant Ricoh Company, Ltd. The case's core problem stems from the fact that the perpetual success of a business model based on selling and maintaining digital print solutions is coming to an end. Ricoh Canada Inc is at the front lines of a company trying to change its appearance. For so long Ricoh has been known as the 'printer guys,' however, within three years the market that Ricoh Canada Inc has so long relied on is going to contract. With strong cash flow from its legacy business Ricoh Canada Inc must decide where to invest to ensure returns for the future; services such as IT support and document management seem to be the obvious answer, but the question of how Ricoh Canada should grow in these new markets is not so obvious.
