Abstract

This case, a follow on to HBS No. 517-049 "Luvo," provides a brief look at changes that have occurred at Luvo, now called Performance Kitchen, since the timing of the first case (mid-2016). Set in January 2020, “Luvo (B)” touches on developments such as the company's purchase of a small food retail chain and its "food-is-medicine" strategic positioning, which includes selling to health insurers and other firms in the health care industry.
