Fiat
Even though the automaker brand continues to be very popular in Italy, the brand has lost relevance in the United States. Its small cars have become known to be rather unreliable and deliver a “choppy” ride. Its month-over-month sales have gone down continuously in the past years. Drivers across the country seem to prefer SUVs now. Fiat Chrysler has responded by retooling factories to make more light trucks and crossovers to cater to its American market.
SlimFast
SlimFast is a well-known maker of drink mixes and diet shakes. However, it is no longer popular among the American market. This company was sold for the price of $350 million, which is a huge decline in its $2.4 billion value when Unilever bought out the brand at the start of the millennium. SlimFast has been trying to improve its sales by introducing new products such as protein bars and cookies. However, consumers are now relying on fresh and low-carb foods when they want to shed their extra pounds.
