accepting all the modification Sainsbury's again introduce the product in the developing market.
M3 evaluation of frugal innovation
Frugal innovations help a organisation in building a new and improved quality product
for meeting the requirements of consumers. Advantages of the organisation is to saves expenses
and resources by building such type of innovative products which will enhance the productivity
and customer base of the company. Such innovations are likely to attract more customers as well
as help in retaining old customers. Organisations should adopt such practices in order to improve
their market share and in getting an upper edge over the other competitors. There is also
disadvantage of the frugal innovation in the Sainsbury's company. Such as lack of traditional
resources which is not easily available in the market. Lack of political power, dependency of
work on the other activities. It provide difficulties to identify the correct prospective.
D2 Impact of small business on different level of the economy
Small business directly affects the economy at regional and local levels by providing
employment to local individuals who won't get employed by larger organisations. Beacause the
requirement of big company is not fulfil by the every individual. They want highly qualified
person for any profil. By providing job opportunities and promoting economical growth, small
firms help in eradicating poverty. Small business tend to move higher from regional to state level
by providing adequate services and products in meeting the market requirement. By increasing
their customer base and market share, firms moves higher from state to national level.
Performance of these firms is crtically associated with economy growth. Every small business
start their production at the local level. Firstly they provide employement in their local area. So
that area will be developed and after this they move further for change in state level economy.
Small organisation have huge growth if they find the right path and it will grow from state to the
national level.
