“…The age of globalization has brought hyper competition (D'Aveni, 1994;D'Aveni, 1999) in all industries and among companies around the world (Harvey and Novicevic, 2002). In order to face this challenge, organizations from every domain have used in their activities and processes, a plethora of business tools, techniques, methods and practices, such as Six Sigma (Toma, 2008), marketing mix (Grădinaru, Toma and Marinescu, 2016), quality assurance and models (Toma and Naruo, 2009;Catană and Toma, 2021a), training programs (Marinescu and Toma, 2013) or social responsibility initiatives (Catană and Toma, 2021b). This is why their leadership, either masculine or feminine (Săseanu, Toma and Marinescu, 2014;Săseanu et al, 2020), has designed and implemented different flexible and sustainable business models and on New Trends in Sustainable Business and Consumption strategies based on creativity, innovation, digitalization or environmental protection (Toma, 2013;Toma, Felea and Dobrea, 2016;Toma, Marinescu and Grădinaru, 2016;Toma and Săseanu, 2017;Tohănean, Toma and Dumitru, 2018;Toma and Tohănean, 2019).…”

The end of the Cold War and, consequently, the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989 represented a huge impetus for the expansion of the globalization process all over the world. The age of globalization has brought hyper competition in all industries and among companies around the world, irrespective of their size. The last decades have witnessed the presence of retailers at the forefront of the globalization process since they can use numerous business mechanisms and methods to penetrate foreign markets. As a challenging research field and a dynamic industry, global retailing provides several valuable examples of business organizations that have shown the supremacy of their viable business models. The purposes of the paper are to define the concept of the business model and to illustrate its application in the case of Walmart. The research methodology was based on a quantitative research method and a case study. The findings of the paper show that there is no universal definition of a business model in the literature. However, its several characteristics can be revealed, such as the fact that it illustrates the logic of making money for any company and represents an organisational framework for value creation, delivery and capture. From a theoretical point of view, it brings some clarifications concerning the concept of the business model. From a practical point of view, the paper analyses some of the key features of Walmart business model, emphasizing their importance in achieving business success. It also presents the clear interconnection between Walmart strategy and its business model.

“…Some university graduates volunteer as a form of On-the-job (OJT) training in a way to align their abilities to the industry at hand. Marinescu and Toma (2013) reports that trainings are critical pathways for acquiring information, knowledge, and guidance towards the rapidly changing work environments. The use of Off-the-job-training (OFJT) could help redeem the employability of these graduates, as On-the-Job Training (OJT) consumes a lot of time.…”

Upon employment, fresh graduates have been widely criticized for their underperformance due to their lack of relevant practical skills. Furthermore, students need training that allows them to blend knowledge with the practice in the workspace. This study assessed the influence of an ‘Empowerment of the Agro-processing Industry (EAPI)' skills training for the agro-processing industry, on the knowledge, attitude, and practice among students in the School of Food Technology Nutrition and Bio-Engineering (SFTNB), Makerere University. Students were trained in 8 modules including; food process and value-chain management, food product optimization, national and international standards of food products, application of good management practices (GMP) and hygienic food processing, quality control in food production processes, waste management, infrastructure development to meet quality & production capacity in food production facilities and food product marketing & preparation for export markets. A semi-structured questionnaire with a descriptive, scale and thematic analysis was used to evaluate the impact of the training. The reliability of the responses of the questionnaires was tested using Cronbach’s alpha and they showed high reliability; yielding values that ranged between 0.88 and 0.97. Results showed a statistically significant difference (p < 0.05) in knowledge, attitude and practice for product optimization, adequate processing facility, standardization, certification, and export marketing. Cronbach’s alpha values ranged between 0.88 and 0.97 for all stated variables indicating that the scales were sound and reliable. Therefore, the inclusion of similar study material into the current curriculum would help improve and enrich the curriculum thereby producing well-prepared students for the food processing industry in Uganda.
