Abstract:
We share the case of Havanna - a relevant company in Argentina, valuable and respected in a region that leads one of those few (and at this point we would say strange) categories that have no multi-national competence, and is therefore responsible for undertaking the strenuous task of leading the market. It is the case of a company, that facing new consumer trends and a transformation in the competitive scenario, has stepped out of its comfort zone to re-think. Our intention in this paper is to highlight the advantages of re-purposing for a small business, because we think that by making weakness a virtue, what we learn from the process can be extrapolated.
