Macro-economic Outlook
I.
II.
III.
The current economic climate continues to put strain on
credit markets, forcing companies and consumers to hold
onto their cash.
Robeco’s Macroeconomic Outlook Report predicts that
2009 will be characterized by an economic recession
that is longer and deeper than any that have occurred
for a quarter of a century.
In spite of the economic crisis and continued expansion,
Walgreens reduced the growth in expenses by 6% in
fiscal 2008. This signifies increased efficiency.

SWOT Analysis/Porter’s Five Forces
Highly competitive industry driven by number of
players, low switching costs, and
undifferentiated products. Drugs are thought of
as commodities.
 INTENSE RIVALRY
High industry attractiveness
and low barriers to entry.
 STRONG THREAT
New
Entrants
Buyer
Power
Rivalry
Supplier
Power
Large number of buyers weakens buyer power, but
negligible switching costs strengthens it.
 MODERATE THREAT
Substitutes
Supermarkets and generics
are large threats.
 Strong Threat to branded
drugs
The large retailers purchase directly from several
suppliers, and often carry their own brands as well.
This puts pressure on suppliers. Careful of over
reliance.
 MODERATE THREAT
