LEGO faced significant losses in the early 2000s due to over-diversification, operational
inefficiencies, and weak product strategy. The company had expanded into multiple
product lines without a clear focus, straining production and supply chain operations.
External business consultants worked with LEGO to refocus on core products, streamline
the supply chain, and establish clear product innovation pipelines. By 2006, LEGO
returned to profitability, strengthened its global brand, and launched a sustainable
strategy for new product development.
