Issues
? Workforce:
   ¨C   Ageing workforce, struggling to attract new staff
   ¨C   Long hours for drivers
   ¨C   Compliance & Adaptive
   ¨C   Relocation / Challenging staff from MK depot

? Competition:
   ¨C Tesco / Abel & Cole
   ¨C Tesco is cheaper on unit price

? Margin:
   ¨C Historic creditors MK depot closed ?bedford left to pull debt from
     their customers
   ¨C Payment cash / doorstep legacy / new banking rules for drivers
Recommendations
? Workforce:
? Competition:
   ¨C Canvas traditional customers (Senior citizen functions/locations)
   ¨C Use tying/ bundling deals to get people paying upfront and tied
     in for a long period
? Margin:
   ¨C Improve Forecast for inventory to reduce waste.
       ? Data analysis
   ¨C Discount on a one year order of minimum order (with room to
     increase order when required)
   ¨C add slow moving stock to other popular products (could them
     free when a higher margin product is bought)
