Managers have formal authority to use organizational resources and to make decisions. In organizations, there are typically three levels of management: top-level, middle-level, and first-level.

...Executive Summary The aim of this report is to focus on the major decision that the management team of Nestlé had to take in determining whether to introduce the Partners’ Blend Coffee into the UK market with their own Nestlé Initiative or to introduce the coffee into the market with Fairtrade certification. This decision was prompted by the feedback they received from their customers to introduce a coffee line that has Fairtrade certification. The main idea of the Fairtrade movement is to address issues of unfair conventional trade practices that discriminate against the poorest and weakest producers in order to empower them to improve their position and have more control over their lives. In the course of analyzing where to introduce Partners’ Blend, the management decided to incorporate it with Nestlé UK because the UK has a natural desire to donate to other less fortunate nations especially as they are a relatively wealthy nation. As a result, many charity organizations have their headquarters in UK. This report would analyze the challenges and opportunities that Nestlé should consider in making the final decision to introduce the coffee either with or without the Fairtrade logo. It includes analyzing the power of suppliers, consumers, the competitive rivalry, the threat of substitute goods and the threat of new entrants when they want to take advantage of the opportunity to position Nestlé in a positive light with ethical coffee line. This report concludes...

...Chocolate SLIDE 1 Good morning friends !! Please take your chocolates from the basket. Thank you. Myself and nithya will share on Chocalates……………… SLIDE 2 So Where Chocolates come from? Yes!! It comes from most of the tropical parts of the world like Africa, Ghana the number one producer, then Indonesia, Brazil, Mexico etc etc… This is a Cacoa Tree which bears the Cocoa pods. The tree takes 5-6 years to mature and bear a fruit. The ripe cocoa pod has about 30 usable pods each year ie rougly 1000 cocoa beans a year Around 500 beans make 1 pound only ie 2 pound of bittersweet cocoa per tree in a year. Cacao farming is very labor intensive. Every part of cacao farming, from planting to harvesting to fermenting, is best done by hand, not machines. Pods must be removed from the trees individually, by hand, because not all ripen at the same time. Farmers generally use machetes or large knives attached to poles to slice down the ripe pods, taking care not to hurt nearby buds. The pods are split open by hand. The beans are scooped out and the outer shell is discarded. If you tasted a bean at this point you would notice a sweet, lemony flavor from the pulp. The actual bean would be bitter and hard to eat. SLIDE 3 Fermentation Once the cacao beans are scooped from the pods, they are fermented and dried in the two-step curing process that sets in motion the development of the flavor nuances which maketasting chocolate so exciting. Fermentation is the first critical process to develop...
