Sažetak
This study explores whether firms in the turbulent, transition economy of Croatia can develop resources that they can then translate into growth in sales and profits. A supplier focus, or acquiring and maintaining detailed information about suppliers, and responsiveness to customer needs were both important resources in affecting growth of the firm, but in different ways. Managers pursuing a low cost strategy were able to grow sales by maintaining an extensive supplier focus. Managers who built a customer response system benefited in terms of sales growth and profit growth regardless of the type of strategy being pursued.
