• Consumer expenditure in SSA
equaled nearly $600 billion in
2010, accounting for almost eight
percent of all emerging-market
spending, and is expected to reach
nearly $1 trillion by 2020.
• Consumer spending in South
Africa and Nigeria accounts for 51
percent of SSA's total expenditure.
• Poverty in SSA is decreasing
rapidly—from 40 percent in 1980 to
less than 30 percent in 2008—and is
expected to fall to 20 percent by 2020.
• By 2050, almost 60 percent of
people in SSA will live in cities,
compared with 40 percent in 2010.
This means 800 million more people
will live in urban environments.
• By 2012, over 50 percent of all
Africans—or more than 500 million
people—will own a mobile phone.
By 2014, this portion is expected to
increase to 56 percent (more than 600
million people), giving Africa one of
the world’s highest mobile usage rates.

African Farmers, Value Chains, and African DevelopmentIFPRI-PIM
PIM Webinar/Book Launch, December 9, 2021.
At first glance, African smallholder farmers might seem unproductive, as their crops yield much less than potential and are often of variable quality. A new PIM-supported book “African Farmers, Value Chains, and Agricultural Development” argues that in fact they are largely producing following rational economic decisions, and that this situation is a consequence of the economic and institutional environment in which they produce. The authors Alan de Brauw and Erwin Bulte discuss ways that different types of transaction costs limit their market opportunities in general, including transport costs but also costs related to different sources of risks, trust, market power, liquidity, and even storage.

Africa will have about 500 million young people by 2030. 157 of the world’s 310 mobile money services in 2021 were in Sub-Saharan Africa. Africa had a US$495bn share of the US$767bn handled by mobile money worldwide. Mobile
phones account for about 75% of all online traffic in Africa. Africa has potential to unlock more than $3 trillion in consumer spending. In the five largest consumer markets alone—Nigeria Egypt, South Africa, Morocco,
and Algeria—the African Development Bank estimates that there will be 56 million middle-class households with disposable incomes of nearly $680 billion.
Analysis Group estimates that the Metaverse could contribute $40 billion to Sub-Saharan Africa’s GDP by 2031.
Financing for development Final Project : Urbanizing Central African Republic...Mel Makoge
The aim of this digital artifact is to inform the general public, particularly the Central African States, about the different financing options available to the World Bank Group through its International Development Association (IDA) in its Private Sector Window (PSW). We present a practical example of how IDA uses its PSW funding strategy as a solution for the economic recovery of Fragile and Conflict-affected States (FCS) such as the Central African Republic. Finally, as sustainable development is a participatory process, we present some premises on which these poor countries or FCS must work in order to allow an effective exit from poverty and underdevelopment to prosperity.
This assignment was part of the hiring process at Tracxn. The problem statement was designing an effective customer ticketing system. The detailed problem statement is shared below-
You are the Head of the Customer Support department for a B2B company providing research services. Your team acts as the primary point of contact for all customer queries and is responsible for resolving them. Each customer query is treated as a ticket and the system to resolve these tickets is being referred to as the ticketing system. You are required to design this ticketing system.
Problem Statement-
As of 2022, Teams has over 270 million monthly active users. Launched in 2017, with 2 million monthly active users, they have been able to grow their users more than 10x times in only 5 years. You’ve recently joined as VP of Product with Microsoft Teams. You realized your forte has been to cater mainly to businesses and educational institutions up until now, with the entire application built around making collaboration better in workspaces and schools and colleges.
However, with offices and schools/colleges opening up, you fear Teams might become obsolete and start losing the growth trajectory they have been on up until now. You want to break your synonymity with only offices and educational institutions and want to bring changes in the current app to acquire more users who are looking to communicate with others.
Indian start-ups are going through a hard time, with many of them laying off employees for reasons like conserving cash for day-to-day operations. Since the start of this year, almost 8,000 employees have been laid off from various start-ups, indicating trouble brewing in the near future. Some estimates say that this number will likely increase as the year progresses. Other instances like Paytm’s Paytm mall losing nearly all of its valuation are painful examples of things going south in the Indian start-up scenario. However, to understand the current situation at hand, it is imperative that we start from the beginning with a healthy dose of context.
[Project] Customer experience and buying behaviour in e-commerce sitesBiswadeep Ghosh Hazra
The growing usage of internet in India provides an extremely lucrative market for many retailers and businesses. If e-retailers get to know the factors that broadly affect online behaviour, and the corresponding relationships between the type of online buyers and these factors, then they can further fine tune their marketing strategies to convert potential customers into permanent customers, while keeping the existing online ones.
This project on consumer behaviour is a part of a study, that broadly focuses on the factors which Indian online buyers keep in mind while they are shopping online. The research conducted found that Customer Service, Customer Review/Recommendations and Discount/Offers are the three dominant factors that influence online consumer perception. Consumer behaviour is an applied discipline because some decisions are significantly affected by their expected actions. The two perspectives that demand application of its knowledge are societal and micro perspectives. Internet is changing the very method consumers shop, buy goods and services, and has rapidly become a global phenomenon.
Today all companies must use the Internet with the goal of cutting marketing costs, and at the same time, received quantitative information; thereby reducing the price of the services and products, the companies offer. High competition compels companies to continuously look for cost cutting measures. Companies also use internet to communicate, convey and disseminate information, to take feedback, conduct satisfaction surveys with customers and most importantly, to sell the product.

Introduction
For any business to be successful, having a proper supply chain management is a must. It involves the suppliers, retailers, the distribution channels and the manufactures. Leveraging the optimization of the supply chain can lead to improvements in the domains of demand planning, Inventory control, decision making, order fulfillment and customer service.
Dairy business accounts for one of the major revenue in Odisha’s economy. Unlike other domain of business, the main raw material, milk is a highly perishable product and thus time plays an effective and significant role. The supply chain includes breeding of animal and cattle, centers for collection of milk, processing centers to condense the milk and bring it to consumable form and making other products and finally the distribution systems to reach out the customers via wholesalers and retailers. We have identified, three major anchors, a) the daily processors who aim to maximize the profit, b) the milk collection centers who aim to sell the most and c) the distributers who want quality and availability as per the demand.
This project aims at optimizing the transportation cost involved in the entire chain i.e daily process of the collection from the farms, from processing centers to distributing centers.
Problem Description
As a part of our project we had to design an optimal model for the dairy supply chain. The company that we have chosen is Milky Moo which has a processing center in GOP, Puri. It has successfully met the needs of the customers in Odisha as well as in regions of Bengaluru and Hyderabad. The company has established itself as a leading producer of dairy products in Odisha. The company is highly concerned withpthe time required for transporting the raw materials as the raw product is a perishable item and this can directly affect the production system’s.
Modelling Approach
The number of hours of work for the company’s processing plant is 12 hours starting from 5:30 am to 5:30 pm.
Assumptions:
1. The demand is equal to supply
2. There is no production after official working hours.
3. Each plant is capable of producing 100% output and is equally productive.
4. Each Processing plant can handle 50% of the load
5. The vehicles used for shipment run 15km for 1 liters of diesel
6. Diesel Price in Bhubaneswar : Rs 68/Ltr
7. Capacity of vehicles : 3500 litres of milk
8. Cost of shipment for 1 km = Rs. 3.90
The 3 aspects of supply chain are: collection centers, processing units and distribution centers. The initial process involves collection of milk from local farmers in the milk collection centers located at various places.
A. About the company and the Sustainability Initiatives

Shell has been engaged in vertical integration and is now present in every area of the O&G industry. Shell is actively engaged in the exploration, production, logistics, distribution, power generation, petrochemicals, and commerce. Shell has also ventured into renewable sources of energy such as hydrogen, wind, bio-fuel, and energy-kite.
Shell has divided its operations into different businesses:
Upstream: This organisation is engaged in the exploration and extraction of crude oil, natural gas, and natural gas liquids. Marketing and transporting of Oil and Gas are also done by this division.
Integrated Gas: This organisation is engaged in the management of LNG activities and the production of GTL fuels. It also includes the exploration for and the extraction of natural gas, and the operation and maintenance of the infrastructure that is necessary to make gas available in the market.
New Energies: This organisation is future-focused. It is engaged in the exploration of new opportunities and investment in commercially viable areas. Its main focus is on alternative sources of energy for transport such as hydrogen, bio-fuel, and electricity. Wind and solar energy are also areas of focus.
Downstream: This organisation is engaged in the creation of an integrated value chain that refines and trades crude oil and others into different products, which are then sold all around the globe. The products include petrol, diesel, aviation fuel, sulphur, heating oil, marine fuel, bio-fuel, lubricants, and bitumen. In addition to these, petrochemicals and oil sand activities are also managed by this organisation.
Projects and Technology: This organisation is engaged in managing the projects undertaken by the company to ensure its timely completion and innovation for new technologies. It provides technical assistance to other organisations as well.
The project is based on the following-
1) Internal rate of return (IRR) is the rate of return that will equate the present value of a multi-year cash flow with the cost of investing in a project
The IRR is the discount rate that renders the NPV of the project equal to zero
2) Profitability index also called as Benefit- Cost ratio or desirability factor is relationship between present value of cash inflow and the present value of cash outflow.
A) Introduction:
This project covers in-depth two restaurants (one small and one mid-sized) and their way of working on a daily basis. Both of these restaurants were covered extensively throughout for around a month where we got to know their method of day to day working and also the strategies that they follow to minimize cost and increase profitability.
B) What we did:
As per our project guidelines, we chose two restaurants, one mid-level and another a small restaurant, serving a modest number of customers per day. For both the restaurants, we spoke to the owners and formed an estimated balance sheet, business model, income statement, cost classification, cost collection, sources of revenue and inventory management. We also covered the various ways these restaurants deliver food, either through Food Aggregators or through takeouts and in-house customers. We then found out the Break-Even Point (in sales) for these restaurants. Finally, the report concludes with some recommendations for both of these restaurants in order to improve visibility and increase sales.
Developments which led to the current banking scenario:
Phase of having high inflation and interest rates
Major deregulation policies implemented in 1980s-boosted cross-border investment.
High levels of regulations via Basel III
China’s successful policy of state-directed economy - challenged by the middle-class’s needs
Power Division between the East and the West.
Governments’ decision to raise more money from taxes- direct implementation on banks
This led to more and more need for innovation.
Warehouse management is an essential piece of the supply chain process and creates a clearly defined breakpoint between the supply and demand aspects of any business.
Warehousing consists of two prime elements of cost and administration through: -
1. Minimize total operational cost
2. Giving the ideal degree of service
A warehouse can work in different forms from a single territory as a base receiving, storing and preparing for delivery to the complete commercial center to a mind-boggling organization central, regional and local facilities.
Chosen Organization is Wal-Mart since it is the largest retail corporation and has extraordinary supply chain management.
The report discusses Udyog Enterprises, a distributor of construction chemicals for Sika company. It stores the chemicals by Sika in its inventories and then supplies them to companies as per demand. The customers are largely divided into two main segments, industrial buyers and retail buyers. 95% of the revenue comes from retail buyers.
The methods through which the company generates leads are-
Sika provides them information about the projects happening
Through site visits by a team of engineer from Sika and sales force from Udyog
Through some information in newspaper ads
Through word-of-mouth, if the company hears about any projects going on then we approach the company.

[Project] Retail Management Report Brands Versus Private Labels- Fighting to WinBiswadeep Ghosh Hazra
INTRODUCTION-
Private label brands are on the rise right now everywhere in the world and command a higher unit share than the strongest of national brands in 77 out of 250 product supermarket categories which is an astonishing 31% and even in 100 of those categories, Private Label comes a close second or third position. However, manufacturers do not realize that sales of private labels sales vary with the economic conditions of the country they are operating in. Their share goes up when the economy is suffering and tanks in stronger growth periods.
The proof of this claim is evident from the following fact- During the last 20 years, Private Label share of markets has averaged out at a decent 14% of the U.S dollar supermarket sales. This share was 17% during 1981-82 at the peak of the recession and in the year 1994, this share dropped to 14.8% despite receiving media adulation. Private labels have managed to pressurize strong national and international brands but brands must also assess the threats that are possible from private labels and whether they will decline or mature in the future.
European Markets have seen quite success with Private Label Brands and compared to USA supermarkets which has only 15% of their sales come from Private Label Brands, European supermarkets has 54% of their sales from PLBs. This is because in Europe, the television markets are highly regulated and hence advertising is limited. Also, grocery chains dominate the entire European landscape and hence retailers hold more power in relation to manufacturers than in the United States of America.

Memorandum Of Association Constitution of Company.pptseri bangash
www.seribangash.com
A Memorandum of Association (MOA) is a legal document that outlines the fundamental principles and objectives upon which a company operates. It serves as the company's charter or constitution and defines the scope of its activities. Here's a detailed note on the MOA:
Contents of Memorandum of Association:
Name Clause: This clause states the name of the company, which should end with words like "Limited" or "Ltd." for a public limited company and "Private Limited" or "Pvt. Ltd." for a private limited company.
https://seribangash.com/article-of-association-is-legal-doc-of-company/
Registered Office Clause: It specifies the location where the company's registered office is situated. This office is where all official communications and notices are sent.
Objective Clause: This clause delineates the main objectives for which the company is formed. It's important to define these objectives clearly, as the company cannot undertake activities beyond those mentioned in this clause.
www.seribangash.com
Liability Clause: It outlines the extent of liability of the company's members. In the case of companies limited by shares, the liability of members is limited to the amount unpaid on their shares. For companies limited by guarantee, members' liability is limited to the amount they undertake to contribute if the company is wound up.
https://seribangash.com/promotors-is-person-conceived-formation-company/
Capital Clause: This clause specifies the authorized capital of the company, i.e., the maximum amount of share capital the company is authorized to issue. It also mentions the division of this capital into shares and their respective nominal value.
Association Clause: It simply states that the subscribers wish to form a company and agree to become members of it, in accordance with the terms of the MOA.
Importance of Memorandum of Association:
Legal Requirement: The MOA is a legal requirement for the formation of a company. It must be filed with the Registrar of Companies during the incorporation process.
Constitutional Document: It serves as the company's constitutional document, defining its scope, powers, and limitations.
Protection of Members: It protects the interests of the company's members by clearly defining the objectives and limiting their liability.
External Communication: It provides clarity to external parties, such as investors, creditors, and regulatory authorities, regarding the company's objectives and powers.
https://seribangash.com/difference-public-and-private-company-law/
Binding Authority: The company and its members are bound by the provisions of the MOA. Any action taken beyond its scope may be considered ultra vires (beyond the powers) of the company and therefore void.
Amendment of MOA:
While the MOA lays down the company's fundamental principles, it is not entirely immutable. It can be amended, but only under specific circumstances and in compliance with legal procedures. Amendments typically require shareholder
3. Our Assuptions
Assumptions
• We have considered that the given country “Mezosin” is most
similar to “Malaysia”. Our rationale behind this is due the
following facts:
• Malaysia has a population of 32.6 Million
• Median age of the population is 28.6
• Malaysia had a corruption score of 52 out of 100
• Malaysia is characterized by numerous achievements in
the field of water and sanitation
• All the financial figures used are in Mizo
4. Strengths
Opportunities
Weaknesses
Threats
S W
O Ti) Mezosin is a tourism driven country
potential for increased profitability
ii) 32% of the workforce already engaged in
tourism potential to recruit expert
employes
iii) Government’s interest to see new players
in the TNRS sector
i) Global corporations often have little to no
knowledge about the inner workings of
potential market in smaller countries
ii) Differences in language spoken by the
general populace of Mezosin Language
barrier
i) Multiple players in the Mezosin market
all aiming for the same pie
ii) Strict environmental laws implies the
company has to tread carefully and
analyze every decision from multiple
perspectives
iii) Cultural differences between the
company and Mezosin might hamper
the synergy
SWOTAnalysis
Swot analysis for our client’s company
i) Large cash reserve which would help in
short term investments while in Mezosin
ii) Third largest player in the TNRS sector
experience & technological advantage
over other smaller players. Could easily
gain dominance over the other players in
Mezosin
iii) Decreasing long term debt an added
strength of the company
iv) Company has already been acid tested in
a complex market such as Europe
5. PESTLE Analysis
Political Economic Technical Legal
Adopting the Floating
Exchange Rates-
This will fuel the country’s
growth as foreign currency
comes into Mezosin through
tourist spending. Demand for
Mizo rises and that improves
the country’s stand in the
currency exchange rate.
Currently 1 Mizo is valued at
0.5 Euro which is expected to
rise in the future.
Unemployment and
Underemployment-
Low skilled workers Drivers
with the Cab Aggregator
High skilled worker
Corporate company team in
Mezosin
32% of the workforce in
tourism sector which
generates 10% of GDP
The government is
encouraging private players to
invest in Transportation
Networking and ride services
business.
i) 35 million population with
an average age of 30
implies young workforce
at disposal for the Cab
Aggregator
ii) Good health and
sanitation of the populace
implies foreign companies
will get employers and
drivers in sound health and
possibly free of diseases
iii) Education System has
failed to affect the low skilled
population of Mezosin
iv) Underemployment is a
real problem in Mezosin and
the situation needs to be
looked at, fast
Mezosin imports a
considerable amount
(50%) of its imports
(which make up 60% of
the GDP)
This suggests that-
i) Either the country has
a low technological
driver
ii) Shortage of skilled
labour supply
Social Environment
i) Government is very
serious about the
environmental
implications on the
country.
ii) Zulu, the country’s
second largest taxi
aggregator (by market
share) has been caught
up with bribing and tax
evasion charges, possibly
related to environmental
implications discussed
above.
i) Ranks (out of 100)
ii) Government Policies
(52)
iii) Institutional
Framework (62)
iv) Education (62)
v) Ranks 55 in corruption
across the globe, recent
accusations of
corporations bribing
vi) Favourable for
investment in the TNRS
network
vii) Health and sanitation
issues are carefully looked
after by the incumbent
government
viii) Public transportation
is poorly structured and
managed
Strong environmental
regulations-
i) Increased expenditure
for companies for
investing in sustainability
measures
ii) Better company
reputation
iii) Benefit of the normal
people and customers
alike
Violation in
environmental regard
attracts huge penalty
6. Opportunities and Risks
Risks
1. A large chunk of the economy and employment is
dependant upon tourism which is a volatile sector with
seasonalities involved
2. A weak education system implies that productivity will
increase extremely slowly. Macroeconomics tell us that the
Long Run Aggregate Supply curve which is vertical shifts
towards the right due to increase in technology, productivity
and human capital which helps increase the output (GDP)
of the country
3. Corruption, poor government policies, poor supply of skilled
labour.
Opportunities
1. Young Population
2. Booming Tourism Industry
3. Tourist locations – more use of transport
4. Government Inviting private players for entry
5. 27% Void in the current industry
6. Market Potential – 75 Healthy Score
7. Recreational and public water transport- Future Business Model
8. Pickup and drop especially for the office going population.
9. Airport Pick up drop
10. Tourists will book a cab on designated routes covering popular
tourist destinations. The Cab Aggregator will tie up with local well-
known restaurants that will enable tourists to taste local cuisines
at a discounted rate
There are a number of opportunities as well as risks associated with the country as a whole-
7. Strategy
• We are Expanding into a new market with existing
product offering. This is Market Development Strategy.
• Horizontal Integration
• Acquiring Globe Services is a way to grow
Inorganically by horizontal Integration.
• This is provide multifold benefits:
• Economies of scale can be achieved as the
company grows, Our Client being the 3rd largest
Player in world will have effective systems and
processes in place which combined with
already existing market share of globe services
will provide synergy to our business offering.
• Costs will come done due to integration.
• Future Diversification prospects:
• Being an island Country Mezosin provides us
opportunities to explore on demand waterways
travel services. This later on can be rolled out
on a global scale with Mezosin serving as an
effective test market.
8. Market Entry Strategy
Greenfield
Investment
• Costly because of initial
investment
• Chances to not understand the
market environment properly
like culture and people etc.
• Risk of pricing error, high exit
barrier
• Government permits will be a
issue
• Will have more control over
the operations of the firm
• Option to customize more
Joint Venture
with Fuzu
• Will be high stake game as
they already have 33%
market share
• Will have to share our
competitive advantage with
them which can be dangerous
in long term
• It can prove to be fatal like
happened in case of Hero-
Honda
• We will have a strong entry
base
• Existing knowledge about the
customers
Joint Venture with
the government
of Mezosin.
• We will have to restructure
the whole public sector
which will also pose a threat
to us
• We will have to be confined
in the domain of transport
• Government might not want
to seek help from a foreign
entity
• Good way as we won’t face
any legal and policy issues
Acquisition
of Globe
Services
• Maybe Clash of cultures
with the workforce
• We may over estimate the
cost due to Hubris
hypothesis
• Only 8% market share so
won’t be that expensive to
acquire them
• Get direct access to 8% of
the market
• We will have the early
access to customer
preferences
Our Venture consulting firm has analyzed various market entry strategies for the client.
9. Market Size
We have used the three step approach of
• TAM – Total Addressable Market
• SAM – Serviceable Available Market
• SOM – Serviceable Obtainable MarketA B C
1) Total Addressable Market
• The Total Addressable Market (TAM), also referred to as total available
market, is the overall revenue opportunity that is available to a product or
service if 100% market share was achieved.
• The global ride-hailing service market is valued at 65728 Million Mizo.
This will be the total market that will be owned by our client if they were
the only player in the world with worldwide accessibility.
2) SAM – Serviceable Available Market
• Your serviceable available market refers to the segment of your TAM which
you can reach.
• Here our limited geography is currently the island country of Mezosin.
• The total population is 30 million.
• Using Malaysia as a reference point. According to Statista, Revenue in the
Ride Hailing segment amounts to US$558m (Using 1 US dollar = 0.9 Euro)
in 2019 in Malaysia. This converts to 1007 million Mizo.
• Hence our SAM is Valued at 1007 million Mizo. This represents the full
market potential of Transportation Networking and Ride sharing Business of
Mezosin.
3) SOM – Serviceable Obtainable Market
• This is how much of the market in your location you can realistically
reach.
• We know that Zulu had a market share of 27% which has created a
vacancy.
• Assuming this has created a supply shortage and our Client will have this
market to capture first.
• Our SAM was valued at 1007 Million Mizo. Taking 27% of that value our
service obtainable market is valued at 271 Million Mizo.
• Taxi market is expected to register a CAGR of 9.22%, during the forecast
period, 2019-2024 according to Mordor Intelligence.
• Hence this proves to be a really lucrative opportunity for our client.
