From the above table it has been summarised that there are major differences in areas of
business in which organisations deals. In context of organics which aimed to bring new products
and services into the market place which is Smoked salmon by using organic colours and
flavours that are unique in nature that helps to enlarge business opportunities in the marketplace.
On other hand Planet organics that are already existing in marketplace with large product
portfolio but there are some areas they need to work as sometimes they face problem in quality
of their products and services that create consumer dissatisfaction which hinders their self
5

interest in gaining profitable outputs. So there is need to improve the quality of products by
setting standards and setting benchmarks in order to gain desirable outcomes. The another area is
that need to work is is advent of advance tools and technology in which usage of artificial
intelligence that helps to enhance level of consumer experiences. On other hand Organics work
on the usage of artificial intelligence helps them to sorting and quality control that helps to
organisation to perform the automated food analysis such as measuring the size, shape and fat
content by using share recognition technology which is the subset of machine vision. So it is
very much essential for the Planet organics to pay attention on brining the highly advance
machinery that not only enhance productivity but also brand value of the organisation in order to
remain competitive in marketplace. They also need to focus on the cost of their products and
services so that they offer ultimately best price to their consumers to remain competitive in
marketplace.
