Business expansion is an important part of business growth as it helps your company reach a wider audience and thereby increasing your customer base. By expanding business, companies can offer their products and services to a wider audience. Also acquiring new customers is an effective way to increase sales, which in turn increases the company's profitability. For example, Cooks and Wares are in the handicraft goods business. Hailing from a small village in England, they used to sell their products locally. Soon they realized that they could grow very limited in the rural areas and decided to expand the business to bigger cities and newer countries because expansion not only attracts new customers but also increases the value of the available products.

All of this to say, business expansion is an important part of growing a business.  When making decisions about business growth, one needs to carefully evaluate their business needs, goals, and current performance. Growing one’s business allows one to explore new opportunities that can be incredibly profitable, but one must make sure they are moving in the right direction. Cook and Wares experienced very rapid growth but also started facing problems like high cash burn rates, employee attrition, and a lack of quality control. As they expanded rapidly, they started getting resources they didn't need in the wrong places i.e. in the form of transport, money, and people affecting the quality of their products and services.
