CONCLUSION
The increased demand for the products in the sporting clothing market in USA over the last 20 years provided a great opportunity for Niky Shoe Company. The only good quality brand, which existed in the US market, was Adidas shoes from Germany which were very expensive and not available. This economic situation provided a very good environment for Niky brand to take root very quickly due to its availability and affordability. Niky is usually making much profit due to its increased sales and lowered costs through economies of scale it is enjoying.
RECOMMENDATIONS
Marketing
Marketing will help the company to increase sales and reduce costs. Utilization of internet for marketing will provide Niky with an intangible asset such as market research and consumer buying trends. Through data retrieved from consumer’s Niky will be able to analyze and monitor the buying behaviours. Market research helps them to generate data to be used in analyzing the market trends to organize promotions and marketing campaigns.
Price
Niky has no problem with the price, this is because it acts as prices setter alongside Adidas and Reebok. Niky sells its products at whatever price because of an inelastic demand for its products. Expensive promotions don for Niky produced tuned consumers to believe that Niky produces quality products, which are worthy whichever price they will charge. More so, Niky does not gain competitive advantage through the prices they charge customers.
