  • Case 14 Outback Steakhouse: Going International*
    CTAC14 4/17/07 14:02 Page 245 case 14 Outback Steakhouse: Going International* By 1995, Outback Steakhouse was one of the fastest growing and most acclaimed restaurant chains in North America. Astute positioning within the intensely- competitive US restaurant business, high quality of food and service, and a relaxed ambiance that echoed its Australian theme propelled the chain’s spectacular growth (see table 14.1). Chairman and co-founder Chris Sullivan believed that at the current rate of growth (around 70 new restaurants each year), Outback would be facing mar- ket saturation within five years. Outback’s growth opportunities were either to diversify into alternative restaurant concepts (it had already started its Carrabba’s Italian Grill restaurants) or to expand internationally: We can do 500–600 [Outback] restaurants, and possibly more over the next five years . [however] the world is becoming one big market, and we want to be in place so we don’t miss that opportunity. There are some problems, some challenges with it, but at this point there have been some casual restaurant chains that have gone [outside the United States] and their average unit sales are way, way above the sales level they enjoyed in the United States. So the potential is there. Obviously, there are some distribution issues to work out, things like that, but we are real excited about the future internationally. That will give us some potential outside the United States to continue to grow as well. In late 1994, Hugh Connerty was appointed President of Outback Inter- national to lead the company’s overseas expansion.

  • The Giant Sea Mammal That Went Extinct in Less Than Three Decades
    The Giant Sea Mammal That Went Extinct in Less Than Three Decades The quick disappearance of the 30-foot animal helped to usher in the modern science of human-caused extinctions. JACOB MIKANOWSKI, THE ATLANTIC 4/19/17 HTTPS://WWW.THEATLANTIC.COM/SCIENCE/ARCHIVE/2017/04/PLEIST OSEACOW/522831/ The Pleistocene, the geologic era immediately preceding our own, was an age of giants. North America was home to mastodons and saber-tooth cats; mammoths and wooly rhinos roamed Eurasia; giant lizards and bear-sized wombats strode across the Australian outback. Most of these giants died at the by the end of the last Ice Age, some 14,000 years ago. Whether this wave of extinctions was caused by climate change, overhunting by humans, or some combination of both remains a subject of intense debate among scientists. Complicating the picture, though, is the fact that a few Pleistocene giants survived the Quaternary extinction event and nearly made it intact to the present. Most of these survivor species found refuge on islands. Giant sloths were still living on Cuba 6,000 years ago, long after their relatives on the mainland had died out. The last wooly mammoths died out just 4,000 years ago. They lived in a small herd on Wrangel Island north of the Bering Strait between the Chukchi and East Siberian Seas. Two-thousand years ago, gorilla-sized lemurs were still living on Madagascar. A thousand years ago, 12-foot-tall moa birds were still foraging in the forests of New Zealand. Unlike the other long-lived megafauna, Steller’s sea cows, one of the last of the Pleistocene survivors to die out, found their refuge in a remote scrape of the ocean instead of on land.
