POLYTECH

Two industrial products / two markets

Presentation

Polytech represents an industry made up entirely of small and medium sized companies, which make and market a standard item made from metal castings using a steel-based alloy.

A certain number of local manufacturers share the market on a regional scale. The only external competition that they must face is that of an import wholesaler which holds about 20% of the market, which allows it to occasionally sell off its goods at knockdown prices. The product was developed and standardised by the major iron and steel companies, and is now a mature product. To ensure continued growth, the companies need to start making a second product and to conquer an export market.

Polytech is an industrial company, which therefore entails large-scale manufacturing processes, heavy investment, managing a large workforce and rigorous stock control. Moreover, as is the tradition in industry, the employees are heavily unionised therefore salaries and working conditions are sensitive subjects.
