Last week, all Year 12 Business Management students visited the Yakult factory at Dandenong. This is our annual visit, which gives the students the chance to see the working of a real-life operations management system. The students were engrossed with the working of the factory (only seen through the viewing areas I assure you) especially, the packaging line which was working at full capacity during our visit.
The students were explained the many quality checks that Yakult makes to their product before sending it out to the public.
All these parts of the process and many more have been learnt by the students over the last few weeks in their Operations Management unit in Year 12. They soon will be applying this information to their upcoming sac, which involves answering questions on Yakult and another service business.
