    The reviews differ from all three places from different and anonymous customers. Unfortunately, Dairy Queen has the worst feedback. A customer said that they did not like how the place smelled and how their ice cream smelled funky. They also did not like the fact that the male employee that took his order had long, curly hair and was not wearing a hairnet. Others were satisfied of how fast they got their ice cream and had no complains at all. Cold Stone's reviews were different, customers were happy with what they received and that they had many varieties to choose from. The only con was that it was that it was a little high-priced. However, Solanos had the best reviews and happiest customers whom liked the fact that all their ice cream flavors…

    This report is written by Knowles. This report is written for project review team of Laurentian Bakeries Inc. This report projects a new expansion strategy for the Winnipeg plant to meet the demand of the new deal.
Founded in 1984 Laurentian Bakeries Inc. operates in the industry of manufacturing a vast variety of frozen baked products within their three operating plants in Montreal, Winnipeg and Toronto. The operating plants produce items such as frozen pizza in Winnipeg, Manitoba, pies in Montreal, Quebec and Cakes in Toronto, Ontario - with each representing 30%, 30% and 40% of the total revenue stream respectively. The buyers for this company include large institutional clients such domino’s pizza, etc. which have a significantly higher level of power whereas the seller of the products consists of several food producers which have a relatively low level of power. With the cost of setting up a plant of this scale being high, substitute products will also remain high in the market causing the overall profit margin to be low. With the company’s ongoing effort for continuous improvement Danielle Knowles (VP of operations) proposed to expand one of the operating plants in Winnipeg - which was based on the opportunity if the company expanded into the U.S. market.…
