This
paper uses key
marketing tools such as PEST, SWOT, Ansoff Matrix, Five Forces Model and Product Portfolio Balance throughout its analysis. These tools help show where Tesco is at currently and where they will be in the future. The final section includes recommendations and cautions in making a decision to pursue
investment opportunities with Tesco. From the paper: "Tesco has a very strong presence in the UK and is quickly expanding internationally. In fact, they recently received the
distinction of being named as one of the top ten grocery retailers. With this distinction, the board decided it was worth investigating Tesco as an investment opportunity. The investigation must take a good look at Tesco's ICT
configuration. Their configuration and potentially future configuration is important due to the role technology plays in keeping a
company organized and serving its customers."
