The WBS Case Centre has developed more than 350 cases on companies as diverse as AngloGold, SABMiller, Nando’s, Discovery, Harley Davidson, Solidarity Fund, Massmart, BobShop and many others. The case studies put you right in the time and place that companies faced some of their biggest turning points – taking a successful local concept into the international market, losing a critical contract, at the brink of a national franchise launch, plus many more challenging scenarios.
