The mission of Associated Wholesale Grocers is to offer professional retail service, low cost on products, and tools needed to independent grocers to operate in the grocery industry (About us, n.d.). Also, AWG obtains a vision which is separate from their overall mission statement. AWG’s vision captures the outlook of what the company hopes for as they continue to grow. The vision of AWG includes expansion and becoming the number one member-owned wholesaler in the world (About us, n.d.). Apparently, for a mission statement to be effective, the company must set goals and objectives that are followed to allow the mission statement to become effective. Furthermore, each goal and objective allows AWG to meet the needs of their customers. Also,
The mission statement must be clearly defined to determine the basic goals and philosophies that will shape the Food Bank’s strategic position. The purpose that identifies the scope of its operations in product and market terms and sets it apart from other firms in the same industry is the company’s mission (Pearce & Robinson, 2004).

A mission statement should identify generally the firm’s business-the basic type of product or service offered, its approach to growth and profitability and its markets. In other words, a mission statement is the company’s self-concept – how it sees itself functioning on the market and the image it wants to achieve. The mission statement should be clear and should keep its relevance to the new conditions in the changing environment. It should provide a direction for the firm for the next 10 years. The firm’s mission statement should consist of five elements (P.Kotler). The first is history. Every company has a history of aims, policies and achievements. When defining the statement the organization should be close to its past history. The second consideration is the preferences of the owners and management.

A mission statement, at its simplest, is a company 's reason for doing business. It is a statement letting its customers, shareholders, and employees know why the company exists. The mission of CC 's Coffee shop is simple: "Our mission is to serve everyone better than anyone else." From their website, it is apparent that they are successful in fulfilling that mission.

Mission statement is the reason why a company exists. Mission statement differentiates a company from others in the same industry. Carpenter, Taylor, and Erdogan believed that: “A mission statement communicates the organization’s reason for being, and how it aims to serve its key stakeholders” (Carpenter, Taylor, Erdogan, 2009, p.77). A clearly stated mission statement helps employees and other stakeholders define core values and business values of the company in the industry.

My evaluation of the first situation led me to believe that the best alternative when it comes to dealing with the situation is by using litigation. I reviewed every aspect of this case from the perspective of the produce manager who was giving a report of the situation and it appeared that the man and his wife wanted to falsely claim that it was a slip and fall instance. When the produce manager came to the scene, the woman’s husband started to threaten the manager claiming that he will sue the establishment and even dropped the word ‘NEWSNOW’, which is a feared term. When everything is taken into consideration, there is no proof that the situation was a ‘slip and fall’ incident and their allegations were

The primary audience should be stakeholders (consumer, employees, suppliers and owners) as well as leadership. Overall it should state the fundamental purpose of the organization.
