The Analysis of The Economic Trends on The Example of Canadian Company C'est Dessert Please

Analysis of the economic trends in the canadian and global economies shows that C’est Dessert Please’s management team will have to consider the unemployment rate , inflation prices as well as Union Wage Premium moving forward. Looking at the predictions for future inflation rates, specifically the potential inflation for the food industry where there is said to be an increase in the cost of foods is essential for making future plans as a business and for the union. An increase in both the unemployment rate and the inflation prices is likely to drive employees to join unions. A strategy the union may put forth based on the impact of the economy and globalization would be to address internal or domestic economic conditions in order to strengthen the union (McQuarrie, 2015).

Since 2014, employment levels for bakers have been unstable as more bakeries and manufacturing plants are increasingly shifting towards automated baking machines. As the Leslieville bakery will be transforming into a high volume producer, C’est Dessert Please does not need specialized bakers and will have to hire more people to man the machines as more functions are being mechanized. There is a surplus of people trying to gain jobs as bakers. The food manufacturing industry although having faced a number of challenges like the rise in Canadian dollar, higher commodity prices, recession, etc. had managed to have their revenue steadily increase between the years 2004-2011. However, the increase in health awareness is limiting the growth of baked goods with more families becoming more health-conscious. Canadians want more baked goods that are made with less sugar, GMO free, gluten free and nut free ingredients.

C’est Dessert Please has an opportunity to grow and differentiate themselves from the competition if they incorporate these customer preferences in the production of their goods in their factories. The financial analysis depicts that C’est Dessert Please has had a huge decrease in sales over the last three years and are currently operating with a net profit of -1,485,513.42.
