Please read the case study below and answer ALL questions.Q Tupperware Could Go Out Of Business, Here's Why Tupperware says it could go out of business. The company's stock price plummeted nearly 50% this week as analysts say the brand has struggled to connect with younger consumers. Tupperware is an American kitchen classic, but the brand recently warned it could soon be out of business. After Tupperware Brands Corporation warned it could soon go out of business, the iconic company's failure to adapt to modern trends and attract new customers is in the spotlight. Once a mainstay at American dinners and backyard barbecues, Tupperware containers shot to fame through the company's direct - sales model and 'Tupperware parties' hosted in sellers' homes. While the brand's sales briefly surged during the COVID-19 pandemic, as families prepared more home-cooked meals during lockdown, the trend sharply reversed last year as restaurant dining boomed once again. The reusable containers have been…

Describe the protagonist of this mangement marketing case and what the theme/ issue(s) confronting the protagonist (i.e., marketing, financial, management, etc.)? The case study focuses on Mr. Hans Overmayer, the marketing vice president of Motofabrikverk S.A.'s Industrial Controls Division in Zurich, Switzerland, in 1983.

Subject: Competitive Strategy Case Study Wolfson looks to leverage Next’s opportunity in ecommerce Earlier this month, Lord Simon Wolfson celebrated two decades in charge of Next in typically low-key fashion; the milestone was barely mentioned inside the retailer’s headquarters near Leicester. When he was appointed chief executive in 2001 aged 33, Wolfson was the youngest person to run a FTSE 100 company. Since then, the company’s market value has tripled, and it has paid out more than £3.6bn in dividends. In January, when Bronek Masojada retires from the helm of insurer Hiscox, Wolfson will become the FTSE100’s longest-serving boss — and unlike Hiscox, Next has remained a FTSE 100 constituent throughout his tenure. But Hyman, who considers Wolfson “the outstanding retailer in the industry today”, warned against complacency: “We are still in the foothills of ecommerce . . . it’s a big mistake to think that having a decent website is the end of it when it’s just the start.” Wolfson’s…

Group A: Preparing a SWOT This case study looks at a hypothetical regional bank. Your task here is to prepare a SWOT for the firm, identifying its strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. As a result of this exercise, you should have a much clearer idea of what marketing strategies would best suit them, given their current environment.
