Is the Zara model sustainable? What would you do to preserve their edge over the next 5-10 years, given that many other players are now looking to follow their example?

She wants advice on an innovation strategy which takes the key lessons from these successful firms. What would you offer? Zara Home has just opened using the same basic business model and deploying the same innovative approach as the rest of the business but in the home goods field. Do you think it might succeed and why?
