Based on Porter’s Generic Competitive Business Strategies, the study identified the major bottlenecks in the currently employed marketing strategies and assessed the relationship between Porter’s generic strategies in achieving KPI’s.

A descriptive research design was used and a quantitative research strategy used. IBM SPSS was used for correlation analysis, to assess the strength of the relationship between variables. The results indicated that at a 1% level of significance, the Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.01 and 0.000 at sig. (2-tailed) ket share growth. However, the results indicted a Pearson correlation coefficient of 0.015 and 0.036 which was not statistically significant at sig. (2-tailed)
