Introduction:
What is Diversification:
The major classes of diversification are concentric, horizontal and conglomerate.
1. Concentric diversification is a growth strategy in which a company seeks to develop by adding new, but related, products to its existing product lines to attract new customers.
2. Horizontal diversification is a growth strategy in which a company seeks to add to its existing lines new and unrelated products that will appeal to its existing customers.
3. Conglomerate diversification is a growth strategy in which a company seeks to develop by adding totally unrelated products to its existing business.

Alternative Fuels Cars
As one further step to diversify their product range we would suggest to enter the alternative fuels car market and offer a highly price
competitive environmentally friendly option.
The green cars…
Options include:
Hybrid Engines Electric Cars
22
Daewoo Alternative Fuel Cars?
Growing demand for such cars
Government subsidies
High Investment required
Infant technology Competitive Advantage
No economies of scaleCheap fuel!

Alternative Fuels Cars
This option of diversification may be most risky, but can offer big long term rewards, as there will be no way around offering alternative fuel
cars within the next 50 years.
Being amongst the first players in the market is highly valuable.
Daewoo has the opportunity to enter this market with its current positioning strategy, targeting families and being price competitive.
The green cars…
Hybrid Engines
Electric Cars

THANK YOU!
Alternative Fuels Cars
•Almost all options for diversification will consequently require a repositioning by Daewoo.
•This applies particularly to the options of going into luxury car market.
•Also, it needs to be mentioned that any change in positioning and targeting strategy should be pursued carefully as it requires some time for the image of a brand to change in the minds of the consumers.
•Lastly it is important to emphasise that the benefits of diversification will have to be higher than the costs of it.
