Graeter’s third generation of family owners expanded the company beyond Cincinnati using a franchising model. However, the fourth generation of owners stopped franchising the manufacturing, arguing that the customer is not aware it is buying the product from a franchise and if the product is not of the quality people have come to expect from the business, it can be damaging the organisations reputation.

By the 1980’s, Atlanta was rapidly expanding past the point of containment, and quickly exploded with a mass immigration of penniless merchants. It wasn’t until 1993, with the construction of Georgia 400 was Atlanta alleviated from this rapid migration into the city (Huff). Georgia 400 offered the citizens of Atlanta, primarily those who could afford the new BMW 325i convertible, an escape from all the caged madness that was offered by overpopulation such as longer wait times at The Varsity or an extended five minutes to their trips to The Fox Theatre.

In Germania, Publius Cornelious Tacitus analyzes the culture of the tribes in the region, in order to aid in the development of the Roman empire. Tacitus writes about both the good and bad aspects of the Germanic culture. Although he is writing about Germania in a way which makes it seem as though he favors their ways, the major purpose is to persuade the Roman empire into strengthening their culture through intimidation. Germania was the Roman and Greek word for the region in northern Europe inhabited mainly by Teutonic Suebians or Gothic peoples. It stretches from the Danube to the Baltic Sea, and from the Rhine in the west to the Vistula.

The Santa Trinita Madonna painting is symmetrical with divine, enthroned Madonna and Child located at the center, surrounded by angels and drawn over a group of prophets.
In all Trader Joe’s is one of the leading super markets in the U.S., but after careful analysis of their operations I believe there are opportunities that are currently being ignored by the company. The company doesn’t need to act on all the recommendations that I made, however it would be in their best interest to do so. Not only would the company grow at a faster pace, but it will make strides in areas that haven’t been occupied before. Despite these current pitfalls, Trader Joe’s still is a popular option in their
