The business model that sets Zara apart from other clothing retailers is how rapidly the company changes stocks and releases new product lineups. The company averages 12-16 collections annually which equates to more than one lineup a month.

Their customers are happy knowing that their specific article of clothing is more “rare” due to only having an average of a two-week window to purchase the clothing. The company specifically targets current trends and has them in the store within 30 days. This maintains the brand’s uniqueness and relativity in fashion.

The business plan I selected and will be conducting a SWOT analysis is of the Blue spa company which as the website states is, “a company that has created a brand concept consisting of both skin care and athletic apparel utilizing multiple channels of distribution.” (Bplans, 2014) This company mainly focuses on female customers that are between the age of 25 and 65.
