    Target Corporation

    Target Corporation has no new imminent threats on its horizon. Its greatest challenge continues to be the problem of competing with Wal-Mart. In order to reduce the threat posed to profits by internal rivalry in the discount retailing industry, Target should focus on two key issues: growth and differentiation. Target has grown consistently in the past. The obvious areas in which Target should concentrate its expansion are markets in the South and Northeast, where there are plenty of attractive locations with no Target stores. New territory also exists in the form of urban areas. Due to size…

    Costco Wholesale Corporation

    Chief elements of Costco’s strategy were low prices, limited selection, and a treasure-hunt shopping environment. The ultra-low pricing strategy includes a mark-up capped at 14% and Kirkland, a Costco brand designed to be of equal or better quality than national brands. Product Selection is limited to 4,000 items within a wide variety of categories. Costco does however include ancillary businesses to increase member alternatives. The loss of sales from customers who refuse to purchase large amounts is considered “Intelligent loss of sales.” Treasure-Hunt Merchandising consists of a constantly changing selection of 1,000 luxury items on the floor enticing shoppers to spend more than they might otherwise by offering irresistible deals. To make Treasure-Hunt shopping profitable, Costco’s buyers purchase these items from the grey market such as wholesalers, or distressed retailers rather than manufacturers.…

One of the companies that stayed afloat during the economic recession was the Target Corporation.

Its dependable merchandises and exceeding expectations are unique in the market. Target focuses heavily on attaining customer satisfaction and employee satisfaction.

    Crown Corporations - Lcbo

    Crown Corporations are government-owned entities (Stastna, Kazi.). An example includes the Liquor Control Board of Ontario (LCBO). LCBO stores are the only stores, in Ontario, allowed to distribute liquor and other distilled beverages; therefore, LCBO is a monopoly ("Beverage Alcohol Service Review: A Matter of Balance"). The main purpose of this regulation is to limit the consumption of such products in Ontario – for better health ("Beverage Alcohol Service Review: A Matter of Balance"). However, the government ownership of LCBO may not be ideal. The corporation should be privatized because its products do not benefit everyone in Ontario, and because privatization may be better for the economy.…
