Legal factors:
Legal factors evaluate State Law and regulations imposed by government under
provisions of act which needs to be followed by every organization before commencement and

business failure, wrong strategies adopted, wrong planning, market uncertainty, etc.In the below
points, there are number of strategies that used by companies for expansion of new and existing
business operations:
Management buyout:
Management buyout is the most useful strategy that includes the purchasing of
operations and business. In this strategy the managers buy only that portion which they manage

There are some other method and strategies that used by the organizations for expanding
their existing or new business mentioned below:
Liquidation:

requires running their business easily. So the company chooses to liquidate their business

equipments which requires less capital to run the business (Zhenggang, Guanling and Chengxin,
2018).

sometimes did not adjust for working together in the same position.
There are many reasons that can be discussed above, because of that company can face many
failures. Because of continuous failure they take decision of taking strategy. One of the main
reason of adoption of succession strategy is to take next good opportunities of that they have to
left from the previous one's. From the above discussion it is analyzed that MOMA Foods group
should go for merger and acquisition if they want to expand their business in the market.
Because attend the company who already run their business very well so f they acquire or merge
with another company it strengthens the capital.
