Introduction Woolworths is one of the largest retailing companies in Australia. It deals with food and staples. Mr Grant O’Brien is the Managing Director of this company. It holds 190,000 employees across Australia and New Zealand. As it is one of the largest companies in Australia although it’s not a manufacturing industry, it’s indirectly impacting on the environment by producing CO2 through its operation by consumption of electricity and wastage product produced through its day to day operation. By taking this in mind, we decided to work under Woolworths and help it to reduce its carbon emission that is affecting the environment and community as a whole. Therefore, our project will be focused on reducing the impact of carbon emission that is emitted from the day to day operation of Woolworths. 2. Project definition Project “Hello Green” will be fully committed towards the green.

...Stateside revenue for their product line reached $53.76 million in 2011. However, since 2008, annual sales have been on the decline by an average of 7.5% annually (Gold, 2015). As a result of their declining sales, MJ Brenner VP of strategy gave CleanSpritz’ marketing team, led by Claire Beaton, six months to devise a plan to revive their sales strategy. Next, we will review a SWOT analysis of CleanSpritz. Strengths When considering the market for all-purpose cleaners, CleanSpritz had 14% of the market share, more than any other cleaner on the market. With such a large market share, Claire would have a sizeable population to conduct market analysis and obtain valuable product insight. This insight would undoubtedly be vital as she presented her strategic proposal to Brenner's Strategy team. CleanSpritz has already received positive feedback from several potential commercial customers regarding the 3:1 concentrate. Using the same data from table 4 (Gold, 2015), and presuming that the commercial business is as successful as the market for all-purpose cleaners, CleanSpritz would stand to gain a competitive advantage over its competitors. Following the presumption that CleanSpritz invests 7% of its sales revenue to research and development (as does MJ Brenner), its customers can be assured that they are using a top notch product when they use CleanSpritz. Weaknesses Cleanspritz has not made any considerable modifications in packaging their product in 20 years. This information...
