Abstract

This case demonstrates the effect of key market changes in a hitherto stable market. A new competitor upsets the stability of the market by introducing an improved product, at a substantial price discount. The first part of the case shows how Chloride (Australia) used market research to help the company decide whether to introduce a similar improved product and presents the facts to the student for him to decide what course the company should follow.
