| Eli's 6th Riddle - The BigEric Carpets Case
Ends May 31st, 2012
Eric has built BigEric with his own hands. He started with one small room and three women weaving carpets based on his own design. In five years the company grew to about $10 million annual sales. Three years later it was already close to $100M. It took another five years to reach sales of half a billion, with nine different regional plants, along their central warehouses, at various locations in the world. This record of sales ($500M) was achieved in 2005. From that year on the growth stopped. Actually sales went down at an approximate rate of 10% every year and this drop in sales happened throughout BigEric’s international markets. In 2011 the turnover was just $252M, causing a loss of $25M.
