John R. Park was president of Acme Markets, Inc., a national food chain headquartered in Philadelphia with 36,000 employees and

16 warehouses. In 1970, the FDA found problems with rodent infestation at Acme’s Philadelphia warehouse facility. In 1971, the FDA found the same conditions in Acme’s Baltimore warehouse. In 1972, the FDA’s chief of compliance wrote to Park and asked that he direct his attention to the prolonged problems of warehouse infestation. The FDA inspected the Baltimore warehouse two months after Park was sent the letter and found the same problems. Acme and Park were both charged with violations of the Pure Food and Drug Act. DECISION BELOW: Park was convicted and fined $500. The Court of Appeals reversed. ISSUE ON APPEAL: Was Park liable for the warehouse problems when subordinates had been ordered to remedy the situation? DECISION: Yes.

dlinn [17]

Answer:

Going by the Ease of Doing Business ranking of 2020, prepared by the World Bank, which is perhaps the most reliable ranking to assess business risk in different countries.

Russia has a higher score in the ranking, which means that doing business is less risky there. Poland has particularly high risks in the starting a business category, which means that the mere act of starting the business in Poland might be a risky decision.

Russia has a high risk in trading accross borders, probably because the country is subject to several international sanctions.

If we go only by score, Russia has a higher score, so, as the CEO, you should probably invest there. However, you should avoid investing in Russian companies that try to export abroad, because of the high risks associated with trade in that country.
