BACKGROUND
Lew-Mark Baking Company, the largest Archway
franchise with its exclusive rights in New York and
New Jersey, produces high-quality of cookies is
now.
The bakery is run by the two brothers, Lew and
Mark who formed the company after they
purchased an archway franchise.
The Lew-Mark company is found in a small town
in western New York State.
BACKGROUND
The company is known to produce soft
cookies of which it makes over 50 varieties
of cookies.
Production process of the company has
been very efficient, and the high quality has
resulted in a niche market for these cookies.
Parents with young children and customers
who are over 45 years of age prefer soft and
not too sweet cookies.
SCOPE
The extent covered by the study is on the
effectiveness of the implemented policy by
the Lew-Mark Baking Company, a
franchisor of Archway.
How its strategies affect the high quality
of the cookies they produce and its
advantages from other cookie-producing
companies.
LIMITATIONS
The information covered by study does not
go beyond the confidential zone of the
company that involves financial aspect
and other private information that the
entity intends to keep but rather focuses to
the production process and on its
productivity.
CASE PRESENTATION
3. Do you think that the company is making the right decision by not automating the
packing of cookies? Explain.
And what obligation does the company have to its employees and to the community?
CONCLUSION
The company with the existing policies and strategies is
effective and productive enough to continue and expand. Due
to the quality-based strategy that is being imposed by the
company, the level of productivity is not affected because
production process includes maximizing the production with a
specific technique and they are also practicing time-based
strategy. It has a great internal control ensuring the quality of
every cookie produced. Continuing to employ local workers
to pack the cookies by hand allows the company to be seen
as morally concerned about the well- being of the community
and its citizens. Valuing the welfare of every consumer gives
them the opportunity to build a good relationship with the
customers.
RECOMMENDATION
Lew Mark Baking company has effective
policy implementation and therefore can
continue to expand with the current
strategies but should be open to possible
improvement that will complement with the
conventional one.
