As a final evaluation, you need to evaluate your project considering the Phases II and III. Identify
some changes you consider should be done after the analysis of the operation, the costs involved
and the responsibilities for both, your company and buyer.
In addition, prepare a simulation or projection of your operation considering the potential risks and
how it can impact in the result of your operation. For this point, you should indicate an action plan in
the case you may face some problems with your expansion project. You can use the FMEA or any
other similar methodology.

explanation of it.
Political Factors:

in waste management regulations or packaging standards may require adjustments to
your business operations.

associations, and ensure compliance through regular audits.
2. International Relations:
Explanation: If your business involves international operations or sourcing, geopolitical
events and trade policies can impact the stability of your supply chain and production
costs.
Action Plan: Diversify suppliers and maintain contingency plans to mitigate the impact of
geopolitical uncertainties.
Cultural Factors:
1. Consumer Awareness and Values:
Explanation: The level of environmental awareness and the importance placed on
sustainability by the target market can influence consumer behavior. A cultural shift
towards eco-consciousness can positively impact your business.

cultural values. Educate consumers on the environmental benefits of bulk purchasing.
Include all your analysis from Phase II in an executive report.
The sustainable and eco-friendly retail industry is experiencing growth due to increasing
environmental awareness and regulatory support. However, it faces challenges related to
competition, economic factors, and consumer skepticism. To thrive in this industry, businesses
must stay authentic, adapt to changing consumer preferences, and innovate in response to
market trends and challenges.
POSITIVE TRENDS:
Growing Environmental Awareness: The increasing awareness of environmental issues and the
urgency of climate change has led more consumers to seek sustainable and eco-friendly products,
benefiting businesses that align with these values.
Partnerships and Collaborations: Collaboration between sustainable brands and retailers, as well
as partnerships with environmental organizations and influencers, can amplify marketing efforts
and drive positive change.
NEGATIVE TRENDS:
Economic Uncertainty: Economic downturns or uncertainties can affect consumer spending
habits, leading some individuals to prioritize price over sustainability, which may impact sales for
eco-friendly retailers.
Consumer Skepticism: Some consumers may question the authenticity of eco-friendly claims
made by businesses, leading to skepticism and reduced trust in the industry as a whole.

project.
