  • Hooters Air: Hot Wings Don't
    Journal of Business Cases and Applications Volume 15, December, 2015 Hooters Air: Hot wings don’t fly Dennis Kimerer The University of Tampa Hauimu Xing The University of Tampa Steven Lewis The University of Tampa Erika Matulich The University of Tampa Melissa Walters The University of Tampa Phil Michaels The University of Tampa ABSTRACT This instructional case is designed to develop students’ understanding of growth strategies, segment focusing, target market buying behavior, and brand expansion. The case explores a failed attempt at brand expansion by Hooters, a popular American restaurant chain that attempted to diversify into the airline industry. Hooters entered a highly competitive yet stagnant growth airline industry in 2003 as Hooters Air, targeting itself toward vacationers and golfers. Hooters Air sought to differentiate itself from other carriers with specialized flight destinations, a distinctive style of in-flight service, and first-class seating at an affordable price. After facing numerous challenges, including sky-rocketing fuel costs and general brand confusion, Hooters Air folded its wings in early 2006. The failure of Hooters Air is considered an ill-fated example of brand expansion. Keywords: Hooters Air, brand extension, marketing segmentation/positioning, diversification, marketing growth strategy Copyright statement: Authors retain the copyright to the manuscripts published in AABRI journals. Please see the AABRI Copyright Policy at http://www.aabri.com/copyright.html Hooters Air, Page 1 Journal of Business Cases and Applications Volume 15, December, 2015 TARGETED COURSES AND LEARNING OBJECTIVES This case is suitable for both undergraduate and graduate courses in marketing, management or entrepreneurship, as well as courses in which students are studying business strategies and marketing planning topics such as marketing growth strategy, branding strategy/brand expansion, new product introduction, market segmentation/positioning, and entrepreneurship.

But before I start getting all misty eyed, let’s also pay homage to airlines that have flown away into history. 1 / 3 Darienite There’s PEOPLExpress, the domestic discount airline that flew out of Newark’s grungy old North Terminal startingNews infor 1981. Darien Fares were dirt cheap, collected on-board during the flight and checked bags cost $3. You https://darienite.comeven had to pay for sodas and snacks. The airline expanded too fast, even adding a 747 to its fleet for $99 flights to Brussels, and was eventually merged with Continental under its rapacious Chairman Frank Lorenzo, later banished from the industry by the Department of Transportation. There were any number of smaller, regional airlines that merged or just folded their wings, including Mohawk, Northeast, Southeast, Midway, L’Express, Independence Air, Air California, PSA and a personal favorite, Midwest Express, started by the Kimberly Clark paper company to shuttle employees between its mills and headquarters in Milwaukee. Midwest flew DC-9s, usually fitted with coach seats in a 2-and-3 configuration, but equipped instead with business-class 2-and-2 leather seats.

  • It's More Than Just the Perceived Exploitation of Women
    Journal of Case Research in Business and Economics It’s more than just the perceived exploitation of women. Contemporary issues facing Hooters restaurants Michael Brizek South Carolina State University ABSTRACT Hooters of America and Hooters International share rights to a brand that has emerged as a powerful force in the branding game over the past twenty-four years. This case study will examine, while focusing almost solely on Hooters of America, the history of the organization, the operational domain in which it functions, the service style found at the restaurant, the management structure found at the unit level, the breadth of the organization, and various operations within the restaurant. Outside of the unit level, the external environment surrounding this organization will be discussed with a focus on competition and current state of the segment in which Hooters operates. The study will conclude with a discussion of the problems facing Hooters of America and various discussion questions. Keywords: Hooters, exploitation, sexual harassment, sexual discrimination It’s more than just the perceived, Page 1 Journal of Case Research in Business and Economics OVERVIEW OF THE ORGANIZATION Company History When examining an organization that has created such a stir over the past few decades, one must first discuss the company from its inception then continue on to describe its growth process into what it has become today. According to a 2003 article in Fortune Magazine, the organization began like many others in the industry had before it, as a great idea derived from the minds of eager entrepreneurs (Heylar, 2003). It was 1983 and six friends were enjoying each others company in Clearwater, Florida when the light bulb went off.
