In the case of Spicy Dish, there is a clear geographical departmentalization because this distributor has created units based on location, due to this, the company has a unit in each major geographical region such as North America, Europe, etc. Moreover, this company has created units based on products because in North America they created two different units and each specializes in one of their products (beans/salsa.)
