External Analysis (Porter's Five Forces Analysis) Threat of Substitute products (low) Food and beverage market has a long industry chain and big industry span so threat in substitute products is low.

This is the reason why Nestle has been able to gain a leading position in the global food operations as it has factories operation in 77 countries and it is selling its gamut of products in all the six continents.

...and the financial crisis in 1998. As Russia’s largest domestic ice cream producer, they had held onto their market leadership for many years. However, increasing competition from foreign companies, along with the emergence of regional producers of ice cream led to Ice-Fili’s market share erosion in the recent years. Porter’s five forces model was the primary method to analyze Ice-Fili’s industry and its competitiveness in the industry. Segmentation analysis was used for further study of the ice cream industry in Russia. The analysis was carried on key variables like distribution channel, buying behavior, geographic locations, and product characteristics. Based on this model, various alternatives were considered. From these alternatives, it was possible to form a recommendation: Ice-Fili will need to focus on the strengthening of its distribution channel through various efforts including marketing and raising of capital while focusing on its long history and brand recognition. Above all, availability of its product to the consumers is the key to Ice-Fili’s success. Porters Five Forces In order to analyze the industry and environment of Ice Fili, Porter’s five forces model will be used to assess its competitiveness in the market. An illustration of the model specific to Ice Fili is displayed in Exhibit 1. The analysis will lead to the identification of various opportunities for Ice Fili, along with determination of the most appropriate strategy and associated milestone for the...

The person who undertakes the risk of new enterprise. The word entrepreneur, consequently, first acted in the French language in the commencement of the sixteenth century. The word was also applied to the leaders of military expedition. But it was Richard Cantilon, an Irishman, living in France who first used the term entrepreneur to refer to economic activities. According to Cantilon: “an entrepreneur is a person who buys factor services at certain prices with a view to selling its product at uncertain prices.” Thus, to Cantilon, an entrepreneur is a carrier of risk which is non-insurable. One of the most well-known French economists Jean Baptiste Say defined the term entrepreneur in an expressive manner. According to J.B Say: “an entrepreneur...

...THE BROADWAY CAFE BRINGING IT TO THE 21ST CENTURY 1 THE BROADWAY CAFE BRINGING IT TO THE 21ST CENTURY 2 Abstract I just recently inherited my grandfather's coffee shop called the Broadway Café. In this paper we are going to examine how to bring it up to the 21st century. To get a better understanding of how to bring the coffee shop into the 21st-century; we are going to talk about the history of coffee and how it got started, and what life must have been like in the 1950’s. We are also going to talk about running today's coffee shops with today's technology. Wi-Fi allows us to access the Internet, check our bank accounts, and read electronic books & magazines. Another piece of technology we're going to talk about is a Point of Sale or POS unit, which is an electronic cash register. THE BROADWAY CAFE BRINGING IT TO THE 21ST CENTURY 3 History Coffee supposedly started in Constantinople, Turkey. According to the International Coffee Organization: “The global spread of coffee growing and drinking began in the Horn of Africa, where, according to legend, coffee trees originated in the Ethiopian province of Kaffa. It is recorded that the fruit of the plant, known as coffee cherries, was eaten by slaves taken from present day Sudan into Yemen and Arabia through the great port of its day, Mocha. Coffee was certainly being cultivated in Yemen by the 15th century and probably much earlier. In an attempt to prevent its cultivation elsewhere, the Arabs imposed...

... This makes it difficult to record and analyse. *And it's a subject that lacks a widely agreed body of accepted knowledge. Different strategists have different opinions on what is important and how strategy should be developed. All these factors make it quite tough. Certainly, some strategists argue that there is a place for strategic analytical frameworks like Professor Michael Porter's Five Forces. But the same strategists also point out the most successful strategies need to be more experimental and creative. For example, they argue that the successful strategy of Dell Personal Computers - selling directly to customers, cutting out the distributor - owed much more to innovation than to traditional strategic analysis. In more general terms and arguably to oversimplify strategy theory, strategic processes need to be both prescriptive and emergent. We'll explore the models of these two approaches to corporate strategy later in this exercise. The case we're going to look at is an important strategic battle between two of the world's largest food companies. On one side, we have the Swiss company Nestle, which was exploring how to enter the market for prepared breakfast cereals in recent years. On the other side, we have...
