I analyze Brita from many dimensions by using several tools, so I can received comprehensive feedback. When look at strategies in the history, it shows Brita using different types of strategies that apply to all kinds of business environment. In addition to internal analysis, external speak is just as important as internal. Not only I need to do comparative analysis with principal competitor companies, but also using TOWS matrix to find out most useful movement should apply. As a matter of fact, people at the time of making competition strategy are not often look at company itself but the market, so make sure the market opportunities exist, and then according to the advantage of the enterprise whether enterprise can grasp the opportunity by justify their strength and weakness. There are also some limitation in my analysis as well. There are no annual report and any financial statement that publish to the public, because Brita is a private company.

    In Far North Queensland, the name 'Rusty's' immediately brings to mind the famous weekend markets, established in 1975 by Rusty himself. Rusty Rees owned the complex of old buildings between Grafton and Sheridan Streets which once comprised the infamous local Chinatown, notorious for gambling, prostitution and sly grog dens, much of the site now taken up by Gilligan's Hostel and Bar. In a disused dance hall, he stored the cars he sold as the local British Motor Corporation dealer, another old building housed a motorcycle shop, another a boating dealership, and on the corner of Sheridan and Spence stood the old hotel known universally as Rusty's Pub, though officially named the Commercial, and now renamed The Jack. Approached in the 1970's by local hippies wanting to hold a market, Rusty agreed to dedicate some vacant land in his complex to that purpose, thereby returning the land to its historic use, that very same land having housed Chinese produce markets for decades from the 1880's. Over 40 years later, Rusty's eponymous markets remain as popular as ever, albeit on a much grander scale than in either the 1880's or 1970's.…
