Re: 22 Analyse advantages for a car manufacturer of backward vertical integration.
[KN] Backward vertical integration happens when a business buys or merges with one of its suppliers. This helps the business gain more control over its supply chain and reduce costs.
[APP] For example, a car manufacturer might buy a tyre company to make sure it always has enough tyres for its vehicles.
[AN] This guarantees a steady supply of tyres, prevents production delays, and gives better control over quality, helping the business operate more efficiently and increase profit.

[AN]This helps maintain production efficiency and consistent car quality leading towards a rise in brand image leading towards a larger consumer base and lower economies of scale.

Re: 22 Analyse advantages for a car manufacturer of backward vertical integration.
[KN] Help the quality control.
[APP] For example a car manufacturer also takes control over the tyer manufacturer, so he will keep sure that the tyer remains reliable.
[AN] This will ensure that the business will have good quality which will be meeting the demands of customers hence improving the businesses/brands image.
