Correct
Mark 1.00 out of 1.00
On 21 April 2016, Taste Holdings opened the doors of the rst Starbucks in
Johannesburg, bringing the full Starbucks experience to Rosebank. Taste
Holdings, under an agreement with Starbucks, is a business franchise group
holding the rights to own and open Starbucks stores in South Africa. This was
not the end for Starbucks in South Africa. In 2019 Adrian Maizey, CEO of Rand
Capital Coffee (RCC) bought the rights to own and operate Starbucks in South
Africa. RCC bought the 12 stores for R7 million rand. After the acquisition, Rand
Capital Coffee (RCC) inherited the 12 Starbucks stores, with plans to continue
expanding the brand to roll out 30 new stores by March 2022. RCC planned to
restructure the business model to include economies of scale, and to enter an
agreement with Shoprite Checkers. This agreement extended Starbuck into
regions and neighbourhoods that would have otherwise not been a viable
business option. The change in strategy involves moving away from large store
roll outs, and towards smaller kiosk-format locations, reaching more market
segments. Despite the 2021 disruptions of the pandemic, the related
lockdowns, looting, strikes, load- and water-shedding, RCC managed to open 41
additional stores in December 2022. Under RCC, a total of 54 stores were
opened in 2022. Which of the following options is an example of a corporate
combination strategy followed by RCC?
a. Buying the 12 Starbucks stores from Taste Holdings.
b. Growing the business and opening 41 new Starbucks stores in 2022.
c. Restructuring the business model to include economies of scale.
