Case Study Round
How can a paints company expand: company operates in 3 segments Mass, Middle, Premium? Should the company expand in mass?
I covered the growth framework wherein I suggested that we could increase current product, expand the market, develop new product, diversify through forward and backward integration.
I did lot of data crunching in the middle.
I finally concluded that company should not expand in mass as it is dominated by niche players, and they have strong distribution channels. It would be difficult to compete with and would hamper the brand image of the company.
