Extract

I work for business consultants that are advising the owners of standard plastics. The company wishes to view its present practices which leads to improvements in the management and also the performance of the business in its day to day running.

Standard Plastics is a small company which has more potential to grow. The growth of the company maybe slow but in time it will grow if the right things are done in the organisation. Standard plastics deal with all types of plastics. The plastics they deal with are for:-

Wrapping pallets and goods on pallets ( Shrink Wrap)
Food Cartons
Cellophane
Polythene
Storage Sacks

In the organisation there are a few strengths and weaknesses. Strengths and weaknesses for Standard Plastics are as follows:-

Strengths

Someone will take over the business once Green Retires
Young team of managers
Diversifying into other areas
Exclusive UK Contract
Training employees
They can provide pallets of mixed stock
Ability to buy in bulk
