Description
Top Glaciers Inc.: A New Ice Age?: Abstract
Top Glaciers Inc. (TG) is a Montreal-based company that emerged in early 2017 from the merger of four Quebec-based ice cream and sorbet companies – Bilboquet, Solo Fruit, Hudson, and Lambert. TG operates in the high-end “artisanal” ice cream and frozen dessert segment. Part A of the case is decisional: it asks students to conduct a business assessment of the company in June 2020 to determine TG’s strategy and priorities. Part B is short. It looks at the company’s evolution since the end of Part A.
