Shipping costs ?

Hey everybody,

For this case, shipping costs are also rising abnormally and more than transport costs but there's no analysis about it.

In terms of shipping, do we use Amazon delivery services or not? 

The fact that we lately sell products via our new online platform isn't an indicator that we use our own shipping means, at least for the online website puchases? And that it made our shipping costs rise? It's just a speculation about that specific point.

Thanks.

Hi Raouf,

Two points here.

1) It's better to post your question directly on the case here: https://www.preplounge.com/en/management-consulting-cases/candidate-led-usual-style/intermediate/roland-berger-case-onlinestar-169

2) It's important to actually ask a question. You need to be clear and concise. Do you have a point here that we can help clarify/answer?

Thanks for your answer, Ian. The question was why didn't we talk about the rising shipping costs rose since they rose even higher than transport costs?
