COMPLETE ANALYZED PAPER AND CORRELATING POWER POINT PRESENTATION THAT FOLLOWS MAIN POINTS OF THE PAPER…FOLLOW INSTRUCTIONS CLOSELY

JCâ€s Pie Pops (http://www.ilovejc.com/) is a fast-growing frozen-food brand. The CEO, Jennifer “JC” Constantine started the company in 2013 and currently they serve over 4,000 grocery stores across the US. (Read the story here and here).

JCâ€s has had issues with its supply chain in the past and it has limited their growth; They had to refuse the request to do test runs by some grocery store chains due to supply chain and manufacturing limitations. Due to recent investments, JCâ€s has overcome the manufacturing issues. Currently, they are planning to expand their business by serving more grocery stores. JCâ€s wants to develop the supply chain and logistics to meet this objective.

Your team is responsible for proposing methods to develop the supply chain and logistics network for JCâ€s.

Following are some information provided by JCâ€s management.

• The finished goods warehouse does not have room to grow.
