[ send me this paper ]
This is a 3 page SWOT analysis of the Maytag Corporation (2003). A SWOT analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, & Threats) of the Maytag Corporation reveals an internationally strong corporation with a good reputation which has recently discovered some of its own weaknesses and areas of vulnerability and has experienced great losses within its first quarter this year (2003) in which it will need to cut over 500 salaried positions for partial recovery. Maytag has however, continued to be innovative in regards to future opportunities and has not only extended its product line and market but also has extended further into the international market with a production agreement with Daewoo Electronics of Korea. Threats to the company include lower production costs in other countries which have resulted in Maytag closing some of its U.S.-based plants and building new plants outside of the U.S. Bibliography lists 5 sources.
