Strategic Plan for a Retail Group

The Challenge

The newly appointed CEO of an international retail group, which operated 2 hypermarkets, requested the development and implementation support of a 4-year strategic plan, aiming at dynamic expansion and increased profitability.

  • Preparation of financial projections, targets and success indicators
  • Development of an Action Plan at company and departmental level
Phase 3 – Implementation & Monitoring

  • Support with the implementation and corrective actions

This project was delivered as part of our Business Strategy service, following the ESGM Methodology.
