BCG MATRIX
The BCG matrix is a strategic management tool developed by the Boston Consulting Group,
which helps to analyse the position and potential of the strategic business unit. The matrix is
divided into four classes based on two dimensions. Industry or market growth is the first
dimension. The other dimension of the business unit is its relative market share. In one of
these 4 classes, strategic business units are put. The BCG matrix for the Dunkin Donuts
Growth Strategy helps you decide on strategies for the business units.
Stars are designated strategic business units with a high rate of market growth and a
high relative market share. Businesses should invest in their own countries and adopt
methods of vertical integration, penetration of the market, product development, market
development and horizontal integration. The question marks represent strategic units with a
high pace of market growth and low relative market share. These critical areas of business
demand thorough assessment as to whether the company should continue or dispose them.
Cash cows are dubbed strategic business units with modest market growth, but with a
relatively high market share. In order to preserve its relative market share, the firm should
invest in these. Finally, dogs are referred to as the key business units with a poor pace of
market growth and low relative market share.

donuts including original donuts are included under Star. This is because their donuts have a
high percentage into both market share and market growth. Most Dunkin’ Donut’s customers

category.
QUESTION MARKS
In its BCG matrix for Dunkin Donuts C Growth Strategy, the sandwiches and breakfast set
are under the question marks. Recent market trends reveal that customers are more focused
on local cuisine. This market thus has a strong growth rate on the market. However, this
category has a low market share in Dunkin Donuts Growth Strategy. This is because many
customers are still not so confident to buy the sandwiches and breakfast sets sold at Dunkin
'Donuts. This requires the marketing department to install a strategy to introduce or create
ads so that customers are more confident in these two products. The strategy of product
development ensures that this key business unit becomes a cash cow and will deliver future
revenues to the company. Dunkin Donuts C Growth Strategy is advised to endure market
penetration and to make its product present at more locations. This will raise sales for the
Dunkin Donuts Growth Strategy and transform it into a cash cow.
CASH COWS
The coffee is a cash cow in the BCG matrix of Dunkin Donuts Growth Strategy. This is
because coffee has a low percentage of market growth, but it also has a high percentage of
market share. Not too many customers buy coffee at Dunkin 'Donuts because the company
has a main competitor, Starbucks. Starbucks always makes sure their company to sell
premium and high-quality coffee. The company needs to create a new strategy to further
increase coffee sales at Dunkin ’Donuts. Providing high quality coffee is the key to driving
coffee sales at Dunkin 'Donuts. Dunkin Donuts Growth Strategy recommends that additional
investments in this company be stopped, and that this strategic business unit operate as
long as it profits. If it is no longer profitable and becomes a dog, then this strategic business
unit should be dedicated to Dunkin Donuts Growth Strategy.
