Businesstools: At the Management School,I was taught that a product or business undergoes five major stages, introduction,growth,maturity,decline and death.I guess Mr Biggs has reached the last stage.

Ie the business that lacks vision n is unable to reinvent itself 4 a better future will surely see the last two stages u mentioned, but u wonder why brands like Mcdonald's or Apple only see a little bit of stage 4 sometimes, but they never die or reach stage 5.

Re: What Happened To MR BIGGS? by Nuzo1(m): 10:22am On Jul 27, 2013
I gues Mr Biggs is folding cos of these reasons:

1. Lack of quality control. Food changed from sweet to watery, oilly, cold and unhygenic. Environment became an eyesore. Customer care became like Nigeria police.

2. High price of their products as a result of greed and bad biz environment. (Electricity)

3. Just like clubs, hotels and any hospitality outlet...Nigerians got bored with visiting the same place over and over. New things and environment attract people.

4. Lack of innovations and new ideas. The rebranding done 2 years ago came 5 years late.

bebe2: It died due to bad customer service,

I went to the one at maryland in Lagos, asked for cold water, the girl refused to serve me becos I don't have change.

She was so rude, I didn't even care I was too thirsty to mind the insult, she said I shud go look for change before she wud serve me,

God bless this young beautiful pregnant girl that paid for the water with her change.

My Guy u are totally correct,i even wonder how ''Macdonalds'' did it....
it all boils down to management,that is why most of these successful companies don't spare any amount to hire the best hands from any where in the world.look at sheraton for example and so many hotels that have maintained their high standard for a very long time

Mr. Biggs food is prepared with an i-don't-care attitude and the cost is something else. Next to Mr. Biggs in bad cooking, small ration and exorbitant price is Tantalizers, at least those in Abuja. Mehn, sometimes I wonder if Tantalizers is truly a private outfit or some govt agency.

Nepa took light and they waiters simple turned on their kerosene lamps....omo, as if that wasn't enough, Johnson my mechanic, who happens to have his workshop beside the eatery,came in with his dirty garbs to charge his phone!
I no lie.

Here in Uyo, one of their outlet in the heart of the city has been shut down and now on lease/rent. The other one has few or no customers. They've run out of customers because there are Food Affairs, Pepperoni, Crunchies, Grand Tasties, Oliver Twist, Sammies and other ones I can remember their names. It will be difficult for Mr. Biggs to return.
Mr. Biggs>>>Mr. Small>>>Mr. None grin

elujah1:

I guess what you were taught applies mainly to Nigerian firms coz its so common in Nigeria, Leventis is another example, i remember going there as a little kid, but now it no more. I still believe its poor management, and when they get to the point where they become comfortable and feel on top, next comes the decline.
where else have u been to apart from Nigeria? How would u knw what is happening in other part, if u are not there.FyI it does not apply mainly to Nigeria. It happens all over d world.

This so called product lifecycle is not cast in stone. It depends on the quality of strategic planning in a business.

Many well run businesses have been able to maintain their position at the maturity stage for several decades, delaying, or almost eliminating the theat of decline and death. Coca-Cola is a case in point. Boeing is another.
