At $7.50-8.50 per average full meal, Zaxby’s is very affordable. It is a little more expensive than some fast food chains such as McDonald’s, but is a healthier and fresher alternative. Customers are willing to pay the extra small amount for the higher quality product. The service one generally receives in the restaurant is much better than with comparable competitors. The local locations are actually decorated to suit the interest of the area surrounding it. This is what we marketers call “regionally aware”. It gives the customers a more close to home feeling when they first enter the restaurant, while they dine, and when they leave. Zaxby’s has already proven itself to developing talent with its employees and management which adds up to better customer relations and service which in turn leads to increased customer loyalty. Unfortunately, customer loyalty is one advantage that will not follow us to another country. However, customer loyalty will be achieved gradually over a period of time.

Hawaii has a climate that varies only several degrees in temperature year round and the sun always shines. The rainy season is in January, but it isn't so rainy that it deters visitors.

Hawaii makes for the perfect getaway for Californians because it is only about a three-hour flight.

Company records point out fresh meat, poultry, and seafood to be among the items people in Centralia spend the most money on. This representative 14.32% average plus the fact that meat quality is the second most important determinant of store choice can be seen as an attractive opportunity for Hi-Value executives to improve the quality of their butcher in order to attract more customers. Another opportunity for Hi-Value is to modernize their store to make it more attractive and easier for customers to maneuver around to make their shopping experience better. It may not be a bad idea as well to offer a greater variety of bakery choices along with fresher produce.

War in the Pacific – Turning the Tide The turning point during the Pacific War of World War II (WWII) can be attributed to not just one single event but a gradual turning of the tide in which the strategic initiative switched from the Japanese to the Allied powers. This gradual shift can be defined by the three major battles of the Coral Sea, Battle of Midway and the Campaign in Guadalcanal. These battles spanned from 3rd May 1942 to 9th February 1943 and highlighting the entry of the United States (US) and their subsequent successes. Ultimately the turning point of the War in the Pacific is when Japan lost the strategic initiative however given the intricacies and unpredictable nature of warfare there are many factors that give reasons as

If a modern Pangea were to happen, the world would be different and it would affect many interactions. Objects in the world would be displaced. Other factors that might change may be the government, economies, societies and immigration. The relations between countries and continents would change as well. If all the continents were to collide into one supercontinent, things would have to change. These changes would be both positive and negative. Modern Pangea would be a very different place than it is today due to animals, transportation, and daily life.

During summer of 2016 and 2017, I worked in a supermarket called New Kam Man, which is located in 200 Canal St, New York, NY, 10002. Before working in this supermarket, I thought retailing is very easy to do because all you need to do is to explain the usage of product to the customers, however, it is not easy. I cannot explain product to the customers because even myself don’t know what that is. Thus, I have to read the descriptions of product one by one and memorize their usage, so when a customer asks me about the product, I will be able to explain. In addition, not only that, I am responsible to translate for the customers if they need me because although New Kam Man is a supermarket for Asian, some native citizens will come too, so I

The store is located in Eau Claire, Wisconsin, the west portion of Wisconsin. Specifically, the county Eau Claire has a recorded population of 98,736. There are a few smaller Asian grocery stores located in Eau Claire but Asian Marketplace is the largest Asian store there and we provide more diverse Asian products than our competitors and also accept customers’ requests other Asian food products we don’t have on hand. Most of our customers would be of Asian race, so if you divide the population of Eau Claire by race; Whites make up 93%, Asians make up 3%, Hispanics or Latino make up 1%, mixed 1%, Black or African American makes up 1%, other race makes up less than 1% and American Indian makes up less than 1% (“Current Eau Claire County”, n.d.). There are other surrounding cities that could bring in potential customers to the store as well. There are no other larger Asian groceries stores are located near Eau Claire, WI. The closest ones are in Minnesota, where many or most of our customers use to drive for over an hour to make their purchase. Being the first to open a large grocery store with diverse Asian groceries would be beneficial in bringing in customers and making it more convenient for those who don’t want to drive over an hour or Asian groceries that can’t be found right in the city.

Threat: Louis Chen, the VP in charge of Chinese business, is ruining the brand of Levendary Café. Customers come from all over the world. When they visit the store in China, they can tell that there is something wrong with the decoration and menu in the Chinese store. It will destroy the company’s reputation if they notice that the menu is totally different from what it is in the United States. There are Pizza Hut, Starbucks and other competitive American brands, which are growing steadily and widely. They will split the market share from Levendary Café.

In future maintain 5% of stores as mini-supermarkets in her development target. 759 STORE did its best to conduct “lower margin with high turnover” policy. Through this 3 years effort on active developing direct import model, it was grateful that 759 STORE had not only built up supplies with food distributors and manufacturers of Japan and other countries, but also a smooth import operation with substantial procurement scale. To avoid any conflict on product price setting with traditional market players, the Group would take further step to increase the proportion of direct import and much fully exclude the supply of local suppliers who were difficult to have price negotiation with and did not allow 759 STORE to set product prices independently. Exploring new products in all angles and without limitation, our procurement team continued to source wide varieties of import product for Hong Kong residents’ enjoyment, where around 80% of them was food products and 20% of them was household and other products, hoping that our
