Conclusion:
By keeping analyzing Ufone, we group members agree that ufone is not a safe player in the market. It is penetrating its market by taking risks aggressively promoting and advertising itself. It holds second largest market share and is seeking to become the largest market leader anyway possible
Recommendations:
The first thing that UFONE should do is that it should make a formal strategy and try to capture more of the corporate world such as the leading multinationals Co
Secondly Ufone should focus more on its own advertisements rather than leg pulling of its customers.
Thirdly Ufone sometimes goes too far to attract customers which may be unacceptable to the local culture
The last but not the least, Ufone should be aware of its competitor moves and their value added activities
"We wish a very best of luck to Ufone.
May it progress in this field and achieve its desired
goals"
