Sneha’s Suggestion
Since there was a decline in profit due to the
competition, Mr. Bajaj asked Sneha for suggestions:
 Sneha suggested to Introduce 2 new products:
 Denim Skirts
 Denim Handbags for Women
 These 2 products could easily be manufactured as
they require the same raw materials and with the little
training the same tailors could undertake the stitching
activity
 Mr. Bajaj accepted this suggestion as he thought the
2 products would be a good strategic fit for the
existing product line
