The decision has been made by senior company management to explore a new energy beverage as a part of a corporate business strategy to focus on opportunities in high-growth and high-margin beverage businesses. Barker must determine whether or not a profitable market opportunity exists for a new energy beverage brand to be produced, marketed, and distributed by the company. He must then make a recommendation as to whether or not the company should introduce a new branded product into the energy beverage market.
