Vision Statement “To bring inspiration and innovation to every athlete* in the world” (* “If you have a body, you are an athlete” Bill Bowerman, co-founder)
Proposed Vision Statement Continue to bring inspiration to present and future athletes, while maintaining the company's standard of quality for its products.
Mission Statement Nike is the "largest seller of athletic footwear and athletic apparel in the world. Performance and reliability of shoes, apparel, and equipment, new product development, price, product identity through marketing and promotion, and customer support and service are important aspects of competition in the athletic footwear, apparel, and equipment industry. We believe we are competitive in all of these areas." The company aims to " lead in corporate citizenship through proactive programs that reflect caring for the world family of Nike, our teammates, our consumers, and those who provide services to Nike."
Proposed Mission Statement To continue to offer quality products with increasing growth in the industry and expanding globally. Our mission has always been to provide a competitive edge by developing the most technological products. Keeping in mind fair labor practices in all our suppliers’ factories, while maintaining a competitive advantage, with the shareholders interests, and company profits in mind. We also believe our employees are one of our most important assets. To increase the responsibility towards the environment by evaluating the impact of day to day operation and attempts to change operations that have a negative impact.
Internal strengths and weaknesses STRENGTHS: Strong brand recognition Internet sales Growing international presence Superior research and development department Strong financial returns Strong sense of culture in the working environment Great celebrity spokespersons Automatic replenishment system Successful experience being competitive Nike doesn’t own any factories Successful marketing campaigns WEAKNESSES: Lack of stores catering to the active females Poor employment practices at their international manufacturing sites giving a bad reputation Heavy dependency on footwear sales Issues with Footlocker
Industry Overview Athletic footwear manufactures captured nearly one-third of the total footwear market in the early 1970s. Over a span of more than 25 years, American consumers spent $300 billion on 7.5 billion pairs of athletic shoes. Reebok international Ltd. and Adidas became $ 3.5 Billion companies, while Nike Inc. became the first ever $ 9.5 Billion company. By 1996 the number of establishments had dropped to about 52, with 12 factories closing since 1995. China's imports increase by 6 percent to 1.26 billion pairs in 2003 . Brazil's share increased 2.3 percent to 83.5 million pairs in 2003. Vietnam's share jumped 91.9 percent to 23.5 million pairs in 2003. The US markets continue to be dominated by imports from countries with low-cost labor. From 1997 to 2001, the value of industry shipments declined from $ 219.6 million to $106.5 million. U.S. shoe manufacturing plants declined by 775 between 1967 and 2001, the number of new plants opening dwindled to nearly zero.
External Opportunities and Threats • OPPORTUNITIES: • Customer use of company’s products change from athletic purpose to a fashion item • Development of international trade (GAAT and NAFTA) • Generation Y children (born between 1979 and 1994) will reach 60 million • General demand for clothing/footwear for leisure activities continues to increase • Growing e-commerce’s positive effect since one of company’s competitive advantages is Internet sales • Women demand for athletic footwear and clothing is increasing significantly • THREATS: • Competitors which copy company's business model (high value branded product manufactured at a low cost) • Reebok's strong presence with 204 factory direct stores • Adidas-Salomon AG, top European competitor • The impact of foreign currency fluctuation and interest rates, and political instability • Labor and political unrest in the suppliers countries • Cost orientated customers vs company’s higher-end market.

BCG Matrix Question marks Stars Dogs Cash-Cow
The Grand Strategy Matrix Potential Strategies: - Market Development - Market Penetration - Product Development - Backward Integration - Forward Integration - Concentric Diversification
Decisions Primary: Focus on finding the most promising customers (kids and women) and introduce more products or improve current ones to satisfy potential increase in demand Alternative: Keep expanding into current and future foreign markets by being aggressive and the worldwide leader of the footwear industry Accelerate funding for numerous marketing campaigns in order to get to specific markets or customer groups Focus on improving working conditions and human rights at international manufacturer centers and at the same time increasing their productivity Implement product diversification with company’s newest technologies so resulting increased earnings could be reinvested into R&D plans
Why this strategy? U.S. Women: Prefer fashion, not footwear, they prefer clothing, we must create a shopping style based in athletic shopping. U.S. Kids: E-commerce, influenced by innovation and design, not only comfort or sports We need to consolidate US sales compared to international sales and international competitors Difficult to expand towards other sports or population segments
Implementation Actions: Women: Open 25 specific stores specialized only for women Increase R&D expenses by 7% in women products Increase Marketing expenses by 10%, designing a specific campaign for women using female endorsements Create a new logo for women market which would be associated with fashion trends and introduce new products Kids: Increase R&D expenses by 7% in kids products Increase Marketing expenses by 10%, designing a specific campaign for kids Introduce more soccer and basketball products targeting potential youth market Research in international market to find out what are the new trends related with women and kids products (Long-term)
