Abstract

Super Bakery's competitive success stemmed from its ability to identify and build organizational capabilities—a combination of people and how they operate—that best supported its strategy. The result was a virtually flawless execution of its market entry, and the achievement of a substantial competitive advantage by a newcomer in a mature, fragmented market.
