Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The observation that the company has exclusive market reach in the packaged food industry indicates strength because it suggests that the company has a strong market position and may be able to capture a significant market share. The other options do not directly relate to the company's strengths. Option A relates to market potential, which may or may not translate into actual sales for the company. Option B suggests that the wholesale food industry is relatively stable, but it does not highlight any particular strengths of the company. Option D indicates a weakness of a competitor but does not necessarily indicate strength for Arpin Stores. Option E may or may not benefit the company, depending on how it is implemented and whether Arpin Stores is eligible for the subsidies.
