Assignment 1: Report On Dunns Stores

The business I have chosen for this investigation is ASDA superstore. This is a large chain of supermarkets throughout Britain which retails clothes, merchandise, food, and electronics etc. in this part of my course work I will briefly explain the aims and objectives of ASDA I will also explain the external factors which affect the aims and objectives of the business however I will first be talking about a brief history of ASDA.

The company that I would like to work for being the Publix business analysis and reporting. I choose this according to fortune magazine Publix is the best 100 places to work for because of their diversity, stock ownership of the employee account by the end of each year.

In this task I will be describing eight different stakeholders which are; customers, employees, suppliers, owners, trade unions, employer associations, local and national communities and the government. I will be stating what they are, who they are, why they useful, how they influence stake holders on organisation and why they are useful to business I have chosen which is Tesco and The British Heart Foundation.

The internal analysis of the company paints a picture of a firm that is well endowed with resources, both human and capital. The company boasts of an asset base of $11.4 billion according to the financial reports for the year 2012. This is huge, and it shows that the company is well grounded and has the capacity to gain a competitive edge in the highly competitive retail market in which it operates (Britton & Jorissen, 2007).

This report will be about my chosen business Tesco. I will talk about the recruiting and selection process of Tesco.

Tesco was found in 1919 by Jack Cohen. Tesco on his first day made profit £1 from sales £4. Tesco’s brand appeared in 1924. Tesco has also bank, insurance company and petrol stations. Tesco have 476 000 employees so it is large business because is also international business.

This assignment will be discussing about when I was working as a logistics manager for Morrisons and we will be talking about how Morrisons distribution system works and evaluating the system. Morrisons' market share as of August 2013 was 11.3%, making it the smallest of the "Big Four" supermarkets, behind Tesco (30.1%), Sainsbury's (16.6%) and Asda (16.4%), but ahead of the fifth place Co-operative Group, which had a share of 4.4% - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Morrisons. There is currently 569 stores across the UK and this means that the distribution system must be effective and be able to deliver goods to the Morrisons stores in time.

Coles thrive to make itself a better shopping and working place, therefore they lay stress on achieving the goal i.e.
