Description

In 1982, Marine World Africa was evaluating the possibility of relocating its theme park operations from Redwood City, California to an alternative location. Prior to selecting a location and beginning more definitive negotiations with a city, Marine World considered it necessary to determine the probable attendance levels for each of the cities under consideration, and to develop preliminary cost estimates and revenue projections for the optimum location. Accordingly, Harrison Price Company was retained by Marine World to undertake such a study. The report has the following sections: 1) introduction, 2) summary and conclusions, 3) overview of Marine World, 4) Market analysis, 5) alternative locations, 6) projected attendance and estimated facilities requirements, 7) financial analysis. The report includes tables.
