Decision making requires considering multiple factors from different parties and analyzing all aspects before choosing the best option to increase sales and profits while aligning with management strategies.

The market is segmented into domestic, commercial and industrial markets. Gino SA has significant penetration in domestic and commercial markets but poor penetration in industrial markets. Feima has approached for OEM status but the main distributor Jinghua opposes this deal aggressively.

Resolve conflicts with distribution channels, decide on giving Feima OEM status, increase annual combined and industrial burner sales, develop OEM accounts, improve spare parts and supply, and build the brand image.
