Homelearning this week is to research two of the companies listed below in preparation for your assessed piece of work that begins on Monday 27th June.
1. Select one pair of companies from the list below:
a) British Airways and Virgin Atlantic
b) Topshop and River Island
c) Coca Cola and Pepsi
d) Sony and Nintendo
2. Research how they compete. You might want to consider things like:
a) Price levels
b) Levels/Examples of quality
c) The range of products/variations that the company produces
d) Popularity of the brand
e) Examples of After Sales Service
In your research, you might consider the strengths and weaknesses of each company, and research who is the most competitive (best at what they do).
For Monday, you should bring in any research you have gathered on paper, via e-mail or on a memory stick. You will be producing a document that examines the nature of competition between your two chosen firms.
Please see me this week if you are struggling to find information.
