We can do a high level scenario analysis for the possible strategies that as a consulting firm,
we can propose to Unicola.

1. Strategic Alliance: We can suggest Unicola to have a Strategic Partnership/Joint Venture
with a local brewery who is very strong in operations or at least who understands the operational
difficulties at a granular level in the country and is actively looking for an alliance to sustain
their business. Using this approach, Unicola can leverage both operational capabilities of the
partner company and can expand the variety of products in the catalog. The partner company can
benefit from the capital that Unicola is bringing into the country. Win-Win for both partners.

2. Alignment with Government : If the company is bringing in substantial amount of capital
into the country and is creating lot of jobs, it will have the leverage to question the Government
directly for a change in the policing procedures. In countries like Estonia and India,
Governments are trying to reduce the paper day period(the time in which a company can be
started on paper- it includes assigning proper land and assigning all kinds of resources that a
company would need). In a similar way, if Cameroon is aspiring to develop in a faster way,
leveraging this option would be a better choice.

3. Planning for Uncertainties: As the company is already having a safety stock for 40 days, we
can suggest the company to have an adjustment for the policing procedures. Bringing that
component, to an extent, into the optimization equation would limit the environmental
uncertainty if inventory holding costs are not too high.

4. Proper Maintenance of Vehicles and Refusal to Pay: For this strategy to yield results, a lot
of coordination and alignment should be brought among all the stakeholders involved. If the
police stop the trucks to find any discrepancies on paper or on the safety measures of vehicle,
they should not find any. That's the goal. If this happens repeatedly and the driver or any other
stakeholder refuses to pay cash or any form of bribe, the expectation is that police would get
vexed up at some point in time and stop unwanted policing. This strategy would take lot of time
to reap results. Unicola should have proper data points in hand about where was the truck
stopped, what was checked, what did the driver do and so on., to properly implement the
strategy.

5. Creating Virtual Consolidation Hubs: Unicola can create virtual consolidation hub and pull
ahead all the raw materials that are necessary for a substantial time period. Thus it can send plant
whenever the materials are needed.

The company can use any one or combination of approaches to tackle the uncertainty problem in
the new market.
