Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The Boston Consulting Group Matrix is a graphical tool that is used by companies to determine which products to keep, discard, or invest more in.

The companie's products are represented in a four square matrix that is dogs, cash cows, star, and question mark.

Dogs refers to a product that has low market share and low growth rate.

Recommended action for dogs is for it to be sold, liquidated, or repositioned.

In this instance despite the renovation carried out the restaurant still records low sales, so it is a dog that needs to be sold or repositioned.
