Curious Case of CHIQUE

Established in 1980, CHIQUE is a renowned and established company known


for its trendy apparel that they launch every week on their website. It
emphasizes catering to the western and Asian markets at a very affordable
price range.

CHIQUE sources its raw materials from Bangladesh, Turkey and Vietnam.
However, there have been speculations regarding the working conditions. Not
only they've been exploiting their workers by offering meager wages but also
have been indulging in Child labor practices. This is not enough; they have
also been dumping a massive pile of discarded clothes in the open, causing a
hazardous effect on the environment. The news has spread like wildfire
considering how a household name like CHIQUE could be associated with
such wrongdoings.

The Consumers of these trendy apparel primarily are teenagers and Gen Z
who are extremely environmentally conscious and are considering shifting
from these brands as they do not want to be associated with such
malpractices. Sales for CHIQUE have significantly dropped YoY, worrying the
Marketing and Sales team.

Identify all the problems and the operational bottlenecks


Benchmark it with other competitors
Provide a feasible solution to the identified problem and a plan to
communicate the same to the customers.

The XILKO Dilemma

XILKO is a dairy company, whose aim is to be the world's biggest producer of


milk and milk products. XILKO’s several advertisements have sparked
controversies in India, Since the past couple of days, #BoycottXILKO has been
trending over social media platforms. This has adversely affected the
company’s image in the market. Minorities’ sentiments, in particular, are hurt
by this series of advertisements by XILKO. However, a sect of the majority
community is endorsing the message behind those series of advertisements.
This turmoil between minority and majority is hampering the social
equilibrium of the country.

XILKO fear that their sales may drip, as minority sentiments are tending to go
against them.
However, they also fear that if they cater to the minority’s demand, a sect of
the majority would go against them and its repercussions could be even more
severe. For the time being, sales have increased more than projected for
XILKO but at what cost?

Being an ESG consultant, advise XILKO on the following parameters.

Deliverables:

Identify all the problems with the marketing message


Provide a feasible solution to the identified problem and a plan to
communicate the same to the customers.
Suggest ways to restore harmony between communities using XILKO.
Provide a complete implementation plan along with financial feasibility.
FLUX Finance

NPAs have always been and are a major problem for Banks. But for FLUX
Bank it’s an opportunity to play with the probabilities and earn profits.
Coming up as a concept of the future, FLUX asks all the banks to sell off their
NPAs to them at a discounted price in order to minimize their loss. FLUX
aims to profit from the probability of paying back these NPAs.

For Example, Bank A has an NPA worth $100 + $10 of interest. The
probability of this NPA to repay is quite low but not zero. FLUX is offering
Bank A to sell this NPA for $80 to them with a minimal loss of $20, and then
it’s the responsibility of FLUX to recover money for their own profit.

FLUX wants to be an aggregator of all the NPAs and profit using bleak
probabilities. They want to begin with the government banks and then
venture out to the private ones. You as a consultant are responsible for the
following:

Deliverables:

Understand the problem FLUX is trying to solve and brief it down.


Analyze the feasibility, profit potential, and threats associated with
FLUX.
Provide a communication strategy to approach the government and
other private banks.
Device a phase-wise implementation plan with short and long-term
goals.
