...Background A. Overview of the Industry 1. Market Size Pizza Hut's smaller format store is about half the size and cost of its iconic red-roofed buildings. Chain began developing smaller stores three years ago. It so far has opened more than 300 and sees potential for 2,000 more in next five to 10 years. Pizza Hut is ordering up smaller restaurants. The iconic red-roofed chain, which saw its heyday in the 1980s, says downsizing and remodelling will allow it to open more restaurants and turn a profit faster for franchisees. Pizza Hut began developing this new model, dubbed Delco Lite, about three years ago when it realized delivery--which is the way most people prefer to receive their pizza--wasn't representing as much of the business as it once did. The new model opens up another 2,000 potential sites for Pizza Hut over the next five to 10 years. Pizza Hut, which is part of Yum Brands Inc. YUM, +0.60% has about 8,400 locations, most of which are the traditional, dine-in restaurants. Delco Lite trades the red roofs and dining rooms for a more contemporary design that fits in to tighter places and focuses more on delivery and carry-out. Pizza Hut has opened more than 300, and is mostly building them, in favor of the larger, stand-alone ones. The new model is about half the size of Pizza Hut's traditional restaurants and costs about half as much for franchisees to build, opening up more potential sites in the U.S. 2.

...(PART I) TRENDS ON NUTRITION : A Paradigm Shift INTRODUCTION The Hospitality Industry plays a vital role in the Nurtition of our society specifically the Food and Beverage Industry. It caters to all kinds of people, rich or poor, single or married, male or female, individual consumer or family, it has no limit. With the new life style of today’s world, where both parents are working, high demand of work hours and hectic schedules, people tend to divert in fastfood products than cooking at home. This resulted somehow to create health problems of the cumsumers since not everyone in the Food and Beverage Industry is concern about the food they are serving. However, most of them value profit first and unconcious over the health benefits of the food products. Nutrition is a language of healthy life, proper diet and wellness of everyone. The advocacy of “Health is Wealth” is in every corner of the world but sad to note that the number of malnutrition in the Philippines alone, is increasing. According to statistics, under Poverty, Children and Health (Inquirer.net)malnutrition increased from 2005 to 2008, the prevalence of underweight children aged 0-5 years increased from 24.6 percent to 26.2 percent, about 3.35 million children. Another problem that concerns nutrition, is the rampant obesity. Obesity is more of a life and death issue than simply looking “bad.” Obese people are much more higher to develop diabetes type 2 and if not given extra attention will also cause...

Wood Rutgers University-Camden, USA Abstract: Caribbean cruise tourism provides a particularly illuminating vantage point for understanding the processes of globalization in the world today. After documenting the rapid expansion of this business, the paper explores three central manifestations of globalization at work in the Caribbean cruise industry: the restructuring of the industry in the face of global competition, capital mobility, and labor migration; new patterns of global ethnic recruitment and strati®cation, including their incorporation into the product marketed to tourists; and deterritorialization, cultural theming, and simulation. The paper asserts that this ``globalization at sea'' illustrates the contradictions, ambiguities, and unchartered course of contemporary globalization processes.

...was still dark, and before long, the performance hall was packed.1 As the crowd streamed inside, one team of Starbucks employees handed out cups of hot coffee, while another wrote down shareholders’ comments about the company on stacks of white cards.2 From the early morning Seattle skyline to the crew of green-aproned workers, the annual ritual was steeped in Starbucks tradition. But for the iconic coffee company, this had been no ordinary year. Starbucks got its start as a Seattle-based coffee roaster in 1971. At this time, the larger coffee market was dominated by supermarket brands such as Folgers and Maxwell House, and per-capita coffee consumption in the U.S. was on the decline.3 During the next two decades, however, sellers of specialty, high-quality coffee beans began to attract a niche following.4 In 1987, entrepreneur Howard Schultz bought Starbucks with an eye toward introducing European-style coffee culture to the American market. Under Schultz’s aegis, Starbucks spread the gospel of high-quality, customized coffee drinks to urban areas around the country. The enthusiasm of Starbucks customers helped the company grow its revenues from about $10 million in 1988 to more than $1.3 billion ten years later.5 By 2007, the coffee company earned $9.4 billion in revenues through a network of more than 15,000 stores worldwide.6 Starbucks performance record since its 1992 IPO made it, for many years, a darling of the investment community. Between 1995 and 2005, the company’s stock...
