15. KEY ISSUE The key issue is if and how the company should expand its operations? Established the line of succession in leading and controlling all the operations with out franchising
19. Company Analysis Contd.. The fast food industry is at the maturity stage of the life cycle graph. The growth rate of In-N-Out is currently 8-10% which is way higher than the industry average of 4 %. The store average revenue is estimated to be $1.2 million per store by 2003. The company has a loyal customer base; it is applying controlled expansion strategy to retain the traditional taste.
20. The company has opposed franchising. The company considers employees as the heart of the company. The company is paying more than the industry average to the employees and thus enjoys higher employee retention ratio. The employees are paid 8.25$ to 9.25$ per hour almost 1.50$ to 2.50$ more than California’s minimum wage. The employee receives benefits that include paid vacations ,401(k),retirement plan with matching company contributions and discounted medical, dental and vision coverage. Company Analysis Contd..
58. Alternative Recommendations Expand regionally in a slow, controlled manner: This would include expansion of the In-N-Out’s operations within the current operating states Expand aggressively by pursuing national growth: Aggressively increase the number of stores in current operational states and develop new stores throughout the country at the same time. Expand the company by pursuing new target markets: Increase the product line by offering more varieties to the menus. Instead of expansion, focus on maintaining and increasing the profitability of current locations: Keep the operation of the company as is, focusing on the current stores and maintain the current customer base.
