Why did Subhiksha fail?
• One of the pioneers of discounted retail format in food and grocery retail Industry.
![Page 18: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Started by R. Subramanian
![Page 19: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Subhiksha
• In 1996 ,a discounted organized retail format.• Cost leadership strategy focusing on indian
middle class segment.• Began operations in 1997 from its first store in
chennai through food, grocery and pharmacy retailing, mobile phones.
![Page 20: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Research of three months
• Grocery was one of the largest categories of spending
• Price sensitive on groceries.• Prefer to buy grocery as fresh and to buy it
from close by.
![Page 21: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Strategic decisions
• Sanskrit word Subhiksha (prosperity) was chosen.• Setup of multiple small stores across the city
rather than one big store centrally within the city. • To differentiate , decided to sell the branded
products at discounted prices.• Acheiving economies from scale.• Tracking their customers through loyalty cards.
![Page 22: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Cost strategy
• Their retail stores should operate from low cost properties to keep the cost structures down.
• Using IT to efficiently run operations. Each store would be updating the central database about the stocking requests by end of day.
![Page 23: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Financial strategy
• ICICI bought 10% stake by investing Rs. 15 Crores in the business
• Azim Premji’s Zash Investments in Subhiksha.
![Page 24: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Expansion strategy
• Strategy to grow by over 600 stores in 6 every 6 months
• Opening of around 500 stores in 6 months during their later years.
• Economies of scale
![Page 25: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Then ......things started to change
• In the year 2004 FDI started in india, subhiksha decided to expand their operations on national level.
• Raised 160 crores of equity, 220 crores of debt and loan on 125 crores to fund their plans of going national.
• The growth of economy had put pressure on the people and property costs.
![Page 26: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Where they went wong ?
• Financed most of their operations and expansion plans debt from banks
• Reduced working capital. • Ignored the need to strengthen supply chain,
distribution and logistics.• Economic environment in 2008-2009 also
contributed to the downfall of Subhiksha.
![Page 27: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Where they went wong ?
• Unpaid employees and cash losing investors lost their trust which led no support from them.
• Closed operations in 2009.
![Page 28: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
What they should have done differently ?
• Had opportunity to raise money by offering an IPO in 2007 and early 2008.
• Only one store at one time.• Planned supply chain management for
expansion plans nationally.

![Page 42: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/42.jpg)
Kodak Strategy….Cont..
1. Managing the Traditional Film Business:
• Slow exit strategy from film business• Looking forward to digital technology
![Page 43: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/43.jpg)
Kodak Strategy….Cont..
2. Leading The Distributed Output
• Now a day digital photography is much easer to view & share photo(i.e. integrated display on camera & sharing through electronic mail or kiosks etc.) and its affecting the photography industries.
• Then Kodak is able to bring fewer profit through digital technology (i.e. digital print) instead of traditional printing.
![Page 44: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/44.jpg)
Kodak Strategy….Cont..
3. Growing the digital capture business
• Profit much lower in digital photography than traditional photography
• Success in this part of the business is dramatically opposed to the traditional photography business .
![Page 45: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Kodak Strategy….Cont..
4.Expanding digital imaging service
• Strategy take place by expanding product & services. For example Kiosks that could print image directly from mobile phone.
• In case of expanding service/online service Kodak acquires companies like Ofodo to boost Kodak Easy Share Gallery.
![Page 46: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Low Cost Provider Strategy
• Introduced cheapest Inkjet printers Cost $150-$300;Almost 50% less then competitor, i.e. HP, Lexmark.
• Ink Cartridges sold $9.99 Black & $14.99 color. Competitor avg. price $ 30.
• Encourage more people to print at home. Photo value pack will allows to print at home for 10 cent, 60% cheaper then HP system
![Page 47: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/47.jpg)
Current Strategy
Current CEO Antonio Perez adopt new strategy, such as_
1. Outsourcing Manufacturing
2. Huge invest in digital technology;
3. Spent hundreds of millions of dollars to build up a high-margin printer ink business to replace film sales
4. Aggressive patent litigation in order to generate revenue;
5. Expand current brand licensing program
![Page 48: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/48.jpg)
Flaw
• But there was a fatal flaw in Kodak's strategy. Its executives didn't anticipate how fast these digital cameras would become commodities, with low profit margins, as every competitor raced into the market.
• Kodak was late to recognize the problem, slow to react, and then went down the wrong innovation path
![Page 49: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Reason For Failure
1.Core competency became core rigidities
2.Lack of market research
3.Late mover of digital photography
4. Innovation and transformation Failure
5.Unwillingness to change
![Page 50: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
• In 1975, Steve Sasson, the Kodak engineer who invented the first digital camera, but the initial corporate response to his invention was:
• As it was filmless photography, so management’s reaction was, ‘that’s cute—but don’t tell anyone about it.’
• At that point of time promotion of digital photography would be the direct competition of photo film business.
Why Kodak failed to exploit its digital photography
![Page 51: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/51.jpg)
• But the top manages decided not to promote digital photography
• By the time Kodak realized the importance of digital photography, others like Canon had already jumped in.
• Kodak was too strongly associated with the photo film that it never caught the imagination of digital camera consumer.
![Page 52: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/52.jpg)
What they should have done differently ?
• Discontinue unprofitable products• Launch new and innovative product • Move to another business segment such as movie
and entertainment • Focus on high potential products
– Kiosks and mini-lab– Online services such as photo printing and sharing
• Emphasize on niche market i.e. medical market and professional
![Page 53: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/53.jpg)
Conclusion
• Great example of strategic failure. • Lessons we can learn:
• External environment can be deceiving • Change happens• Greatest strength can be weakness • Innovation is not the perfect solution • Its not all over till its over

Potential Advantages of International Operations
• Gain new customers• Absorb excess capacity, reduce unit costs, and spread economic risks• Allow firms to establish low-cost production facilities• Competition may be less intense• Reduced tariffs, lower taxes, and favorable political treatment• Joint ventures can enable firms to learn new technology, culture, and
business practices• Economies of scale• Power and prestige in domestic markets may be significantly enhanced
![Page 58: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/58.jpg)
Potential Disadvantages of International Operations
• Foreign operations could be seized• Different and often little-understood social, cultural, demographic,
environmental, political, governmental, legal, technological, economic, and competitive forces
• Weakness of competitors overestimated• Different language, culture, and value systems• Understanding of regional organizations needed• Dealing with two or money systems

Global Issues
• Global considerations impact virtually all strategic decisions.
• A world market has emerged.• It is difficult for a firm to survive relying solely
on domestic markets.

The Global Challenge
• How to gain and maintain exports to other nations.
• How to defend domestic markets against imported goods.

Environment and Law
• Environmental factors can impact how a company does business. To overcome some of these obstacles, effective managers recognize popular attitudes and adjust a company's promotional campaigns to promote and pursue "green" strategies for preserving the environment and saving precious resources.
• Additionally, global strategic management initiatives may be difficult to implement because of local rules, including health and safety regulations. By adhering to laws that govern employment and business conduct, companies can avoid costly lawsuits.

Biggest Factors of Wal-Mart Failure in
Germany
![Page 73: Why srtategic mangment fails(real time examples)ppt](https://reader036.fdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062522/554c4aa6b4c9056b648b56c9/html5/thumbnails/73.jpg)
Zoning In 1977, Germany had enacted strict planning and zoning
regulations designed to protect traditional retailers and thus prohibited construction of stores with more than 800m2 sales area in locations not designated for retailing. This resulted in large-store development being restricted to town/city centers.
Yet, even within cities, where retail restrictions were less onerous, the approval process for a new store still could require from 1 to 4 years.

Labor Union Relations Germany service sector union Ver.di, the largest union in the
world, filed a lawsuit against Wal-Mart for not releasing year-end figures that could be used to negotiate wages. This ultimately led brought Wal-Mart to the negotiating table with Ver.di and increase salaries up to 0.5%.

Store Hours• Wal-Mart stores are designed for customers who are
willing to spend lot of time shopping. • But in Germany, the shopping hours are shorter: Shops
close by 5 PM on weekdays, and no shopping on Sundays. This meant that customers don’t have the habit of spending lots of time in a store – wandering around for the things they need.

HEINEKEN BEER
During the 1994 World Cup, bottles of Heineken beer displayed the flags of all the participants in soccer's biggest tournament, including Saudi Arabia.
The country's flag shows a verse from the Quran, Islam's holy book. The Quran forbids the use of alcohol, so thousands of Muslims registered complaints with the brewer
for displaying the verse.

TIZ RAZOR
• An Iranian razor manufacturer used the brand name "Tiz," the Persian word for "sharp," to illustrate the quality of its product. When the company began exporting the razors to nearby Qatar, they learned that "tiz" was the Arabic slang word for "buttocks," which the Arabic-speaking residents of Qatar found highly offensive.
