BCG Matrix
Star
For Interwood kitchen sets are the stars because it has large market share, moreover it has potential of additional growth as well. Even though the company is at maturity stage yet kitchen sets are profitable for the company.
Cash Cow
Office furniture is cash cow for Interwood because it has slowed down in growth and lies between growth and maturity stage. Still it is rated high among its competitors and has been successful in capturing more market share as compared to other competitors.
Question Marks
Interwood’s Laminated Doors lay in question mark. It’s a newly launched product with rapid growth and low market share. Interwood`s laminated doors might become a star or a cash cow is still a great risk for the company.
Dogs
Still company has no product which is declining and with less market share so there is no product lies in dogs.
