Analysis

 

Comparing the strengths and weaknesses with the opportunities  and threats, Target shows that they are a strong company that finds new innovative ways to improve their business and stay competitive in the retail market. The weakness of Target focusing on quality of a product and the threat of a down economy will lead to more people to shop at Target's main competitor Wal-Mart, because even though the quality is not as good the prices are cheaper. This leads to Target in having to find new ways to attract guests to their stores. Their strengths in the company show to out-way the weaknesses, which keeps Target staying competitive. If or when then economy turns around, then people are more likely to spend money and choose to buy a quality item instead of a cheaper substitute, but until then this will be a weakness for Target. Since Target has been around for many years and the fact that they are constantly coming up with new innovative ideas to stay competitive, they as a company will continue on a path of success.
