Homegrown is considering opening several stores in a new city and has a proposals from three contractors (alpha, beta and gamma companies) who would like to provide buildings for the new stores. The amount of expected revenue from the stores will depend on the design of the contractor. For example, if home grown decides on a more open floor plan, with less shelf space for products revenue would be lower overall.
