The R&D department must refine its focus based on sales data analysis. The current challenge reveals concerning trends in "Top Seller" areas, which have been declining for years. With high production costs in manufacturing and significant infrastructure expenses, it is strategic to halt development in pet accessories. Instead, the R&D function will concentrate on maximizing revenues by specializing in feed production, particularly for the NutriVal line targeting kittens. This focus aims to bolster profitability and market presence amid current challenges.
