âBurberry believes that to be a great brand, it must also be a great companyâ2. The company is constantly working to ensure business practices evolve in line with these principles (Protect,Explore and Inspire) by empowering its creative thinking culture for positive outcomes at all levels.3. I will give just few examples Under Protect Principle, Over 70% of Burberry Foundation employability programme graduates obtained employment or re-entered education Under Explore Principle, Over 750 audits, visits and trainings were conducted in the global supply chain Under Inspire Principle, 3,000 Burberry coats were donated to disadvantaged young people worldwide
Strategic Objectives, it is an organisationâs aim which will help to achieve its strategy successfully1. Burberry have used technology to keep all their markets globally on the same page 2. Burberry has put more focus on opening new stores in areas that suit the demographic of their customers
CSR, a self regulatory mechanism which help businesses monitor and ensure their engagement with the law, ethical standards and international norms. CSR helps to embrace business responsibility for their actions and encourage positive impactBurberry is socially responsible because they are maintaining well all of their 5 main aspects of CSR.I will explain only Two:People, Burberry raised the pay off at the Wales plant closure for Treorchy employees to maintain their reputation.Ethical Trading, â Stopped one of the handbag production in Chinese factory and Burberry is also a member of the Ethical Trading Initiative. )
On the Company Financial Performance I am going to talk on two ratios:Current ratio: Which is of current assets and current liabilities. It measures liquidity of the company. (It is the companyâs ability to pay off its short term debts by selling their current assets) 1,72:1 this means that to 1 liability Burberry has 1.72 assets and would be able to pay off its short term debts. (that make Burberry a liquid company).2. Gearing ratio: Which is a financial ratio which demonstrates the degree to which the firms activities are funded by the owners fund versus creditors fund. It is recommended for companyâs to have a ratio lower than 50%. Lower ratios show that most of their investments come from shareholders, this is safer for the company. This also means that a low proportion of their profits is used to repay loans and a large proportion is used to reinvest or pay shareholders.
Operating profit has risen year on year despite the recessionBetween 2005/06 and 2009/10 operating profits increased by SEK 10 million.The figures have been affected by cyclical factors ie weather, changes in fashion, as well as bigger factors ie climate change & factors in production companies.Figures may also have increased due to introduction of online shoppingExternal environment was the main determining factor on this yearâs financial results, Operating profit decreased 12% toÂŁ181m, while diluted EPS declined 4% â both of these on an adjusted basis
On this slide I am going to explain Burberryâs Environmental stability using PESTLE AnalysisPESTLE stands for Political, Economic, Social, Technology, Environmental and LegalToday I will focus only on: 1. Tax: Change of Government, Law and Legislations, such as the hike of VAT from 17.5% to 20% or Spending cut on the wide scale of public sectors resulted into household less disposal income2. Economic:Global economic downturn led investors to loss confidence, investors they normally come to make money using resources and labour within the country, this situation cause more people to loss job
This Porterâs Five Forces diagram is used to illustrate Burberryâs attractiveness by analysing, Threat of new entrants, BuyerPower Threatofsubstitute, SupplierPower and Competitiverivalry
Today I am going to talk on just two forces which can analyse how competitive Burberry is:Â 1. Threat of new entrants (Low)Expensive to enter, and the brand is well established name2. Competitiverivalry(High) Sector is intense and highly competitive. High profit margins and worldwide recognition pushes each company further to outperform each other.
This diagram shows the competitive strategy currently adopted by Burberry using Porters Generic Strategy. The company is following Differentiation Focus Strategy, they innovate, design and produce high quality design/ brand to cater across celebrities, wealth people, loyal and some royal families' ages and lifestyle which is their strong base.Should offer goods with high perception, new designs and superior quality to be able to justify premium price Price gives Burberryâs customers psychological effect, consumers believe that a lower price for a brand means low quality
Using Ansoff Matrix we are able to see that, Burberry is currently using all growth vector components as you can see on the slide,But today I will explain only two:Market Penetration:By increasing the total market size and share using existing products to the existing market through digital advertisements (Face books Twitter, etc) they also use fashion show to promote enhance design innovation.2.Market developmentBy increasing inventory of products to the existing market to provide wide choice for their customers by using E-commerce and opening new storesaround theworld, both franchise, licensing and partnership. By being a market leader in digital innovation. Instead of trying to embed live personal shoppers or custom sound tracks into the online experience, Burberry is bringing the best elements of Burberry.com into the recently opened London store on Regent Street. The aim is to blend the online and offline environments to create a more immersive and intelligent brand experience.
The Company is currently using an internal (organic) method of growth which has been achieved by in-house expertise and skills for innovation and advertising its businessAlso by using variety means of networking such as website, face book and twitter to get to know their customers and increasing their retail shops
I will use SPACE Matrix toanalyse Burberryâs Strategic Position:The Company is in a strong position financially, there is no long term debts and shall be able to sell shares.Burberry is stable environmentally, it was quick to respond from environmental feedback by exploiting opportunities around disasters (refer to PESTLE analysis)The industry is attractive - strong (refer to the Porterâs Five Forces Analysis)The Company is Strong on the Competiveness position (Burberry is quite competitive against their rivals because of aggressive innovation processes (Fashion show streaming, website launch), advertising with superstars, etc)* The posture says what the company was doing or should be doing. Overall Burberry PLC adopts Aggressive posture because of Low gearing ratio, High current ratio and Sales are constantly increasing as well as Profit which enables the company to take full advantage of opportunities to exploit new opportunities (Entered Chinese Market, franchising and acquiring others) for expansion and technology advancements to improving and extend their product lines Focus on learning and innovation â Burberry foundation, constant employee training, suppliers audits, website, fashion show streaming.
