company to offer range of new services and focus upon the company’s recyclable products
(Birch, 2017).
The value proposition canvas is another tool which is used by Foott in order to make sure

by the firm only when there is a need to refine an existing products which is essential such that
quoted firm has low profitability and that is why, there is a need to offer the best products and
start form the scratch which help the firm to maintain the overall performance.
