Moxy, which is a new hotel chain, and do you know who’s behind this? Well, you might be surprised to learn, that one of the founders of this hotel chain is Ikea. Of course, we all know Ikea from its furniture, that you need to self-assemble, but they also have a real estate business, they typically rent out office space to companies. But now they’ve decided, we want to use our real estate business and enter the hotel business. And what’s interesting is that they teamed up with Marriott, which is one of the largest hotel operators in the world. 

 

Example of poor diversification – swimming costumes and ice cream – both reliant on sunny weather for sales.
