Bazinga Ltd. is a hypermarket, discount department store, and grocery store retail chain. Mr. Manish Goel launched the retail chain in 2001, and the company has developed significantly since then.

Economics Winemaking has remained largely unchanged for 7,000 years, but the United States wine industry has ballooned from 30 billion dollars in 2002 to 60 billion today, making it the largest in the world. Wine producers see customers as having limited expertise and demonstrating inconsistent, difficult-to-predict preferences. They seek to influence tastes by shaping markets through vision and social influence. Even as wine producers dismiss customer input and the pursuit of profit, they value the opinions of peers and influential media and critics. Consumers looking to buy a bottle of wine confront thousands of choices. To navigate, they invariably turn to those experts that the wineries have worked so hard to influence. Producers of wines define categories and set benchmarks, and consumers become fans and pay premium prices, despite the availability of excellent alternatives.

Being the Best As the nation's leading consumer electronics retailer, Best Buy is trying to be the best. But that's not been easy in light of the challenges it's facing in the external environment. Like many other retailers, the economic climate has forced Best Buy to carefully consider its strategic options. Best Buy was founded under the name Sound of Music in 1966 as a home- and car-stereo store by Dick Schulze (he still remains as board chair), who got tired of working for his father, who would never listen to his ideas on how to improve the family's electronics distribution business. However, while chairing a school board in the early 1980s, Schulze realized that his target customer group—15- to 18-year-old males—was declining sharply. He decided to broaden his product line and target older and more affluent customers by offering appliances and VCRs. In 1981, a tornado wiped out his entire store (but not the inventory). Schulze decided to spend his entire marketing budget on…
Maria sat in the bright sunshine on the patio of her favourite Montreal deli waiting for her friend to join her for lunch. While waiting, she thought about her career options. Maria had finished her last exam for her honours business degree only five weeks earlier. She was graduating at a time when downturns in the energy and manufacturing sectors impacted both the overall economy and the job market.
