Operations
The global
macroeconomic changes significantly impact the company since it is oriented
towards a protection free international market. In addition the automobile
industry is always significantly impacted in times of sever recession as in the
case of US markets during the past six quarters. The events of September 11
only exacerbated an already poor retail sentiment for durables such as
motorcars. The fierce price was between major automakers and various cost
intensive promotional ideas only aggravated the situation. The company too has
been impacted by this phenomenon. This resulted in lower sales in the US market
and consequently sub optimal capacity.
