Rucha Bhide, Stephen Barnett, Hassani Jack, David Kauffman

Recycling Antifreeze Drums

• Idea 1 - Manufacturing grills in-house
• Idea 2 - Manufacture metal barrels for sale

to 3rd party grill manufacturers

Economic Analysis

Corporate Analysis

• ArcelorMittal is first and foremost a steel

manufacturing company

• In-House Grill Manufacturing would require costly
• utside expertise
• Constructing sterile barrels fit for further grill

manufacturing would have least operational impact

Final Selection

Manufacture of sterilized metal drums for sale to 3rd party grill manufacturers

Profitability & Marketability

• Grill market revenue projected to increase

3.8% for 2015 and beyond

• Uptick in economy and overall housing market
• Moderate increases in disposable income
• Price point of $30 per barrel (1 future grill)
• Initially operating under loss to cover fixed costs
• After four months, operation will be profitable

Implementation Plan

• Setting up factory space
• Establish contracts with grill manufacturers
• Coleman Grills, Holstein Manufacturing, Meco Corp.
• Hire workers
• Begin production
