Abstract
The case describes the situation of a medium-sized family-owned toy manufacturer based in Italy. Pinocchio SpA has to cope with the difficulties arising from having highly seasonal sales and a policy of level production throughout the year. This policy is maintained because the company requires specialised personnel that could not be hired on a casual basis. During the period 1998-2000 the company has invested heavily in plant and equipment to modernise its facilities.
