Most large businesses today began as very small businesses. Because they supplied products and services desired by the public and because they were well managed, they became larger and larger. An example includes Tandy, which started as a leather shop in 1923 and grew to over 7,000 Radio Shack outlets. Likewise, Procter and Gamble started as a partnership that grew to 58 manufacturing plants in 23 countries. In a similar manner, Sears, Roebuck and Co. got its start by selling watches and later becoming one of the nation’s largest retail businesses.
