Explanation of Innovation • Why was the model developed/ implemented? • Strategy is offensive, not defensive • Strategy of growth and market share gain not just sustainability • What was the catalyst or moment of opportunity? • Pressures from big box stores on independent businesses offered opportunity for consolidation of fragmented industries to look for synergies to protect their market share, secure competitive prices on goods and services, and obtain operational efficiencies • What encouraged players to work together? • Created shared vision for the future and delivered on that vision
Benefits of the Model • What specific needs does the collaborative meet? • Gives the individual stores the marketing, training, operations and product so that they grow market share and increase profitability • How does it promote: profitability, scale, market share, market influence, prominence, etc.? • We own the brands • We increase the margins • We train on how to hire the best; keep the best • Sourcing product throughout the world • Failure rate: Industry average is 12% • Our membership has < ½% failure rate
Our members are recognized as the mostsuccessful, the most profitable and the bestmanaged in their industry
Looking Ahead… • We have targeted large fragmented industries that will not have sustainability without CCA Global’s partnerships • We envision that we will be a $20 Billion company and one of the five dominant retail players in the country and worldwide presence
