| Canadian Tire is a large automotive parts, sports and leisure, and home improvement retail store chain. With the rise in the number of large retail outlets, the company needed to look at ways to maintain and increase sales. Continuous improvements were made to store design and in-store operations. The vice-president of store planning and merchandising was evaluating checkout configurations. He needed to make his decision soon to avoid delaying the construction of four new test stores. He has three options; continue using the current tandem system, add self check-outs or switch to a single line configuration. He must analyze the three options to determine the benefits and trade-offs of each. |
