Product details

An entrepreneur and university student, found himself contemplating several decisions that could drastically alter the operations of his summer business distributing household paper products and cleaning supplies in Montreal. These decisions included three ways to expand (enlarge the salesforce, target a new market and pursue a franchise program), and three ways to change the nature of the venture (launch an environmental line, distribute non-perishable foods and reduce delivery quantities). Underlying all of these was the possibility of selling the business and pursuing an opportunity with a multi-national corporation. Students have to evaluate the current strategy and operations and assess the viability of the proposed alternatives.
