Polish term or phrase: zmienić profil działalności
Zwrot pojawia się w materiałach promocyjnych firmy w sekcji z krótką historią jej działalności. Zmiana profilu działalności polegała na przerzuceniu się z handlu złomem na sprzedaż ciężkich maszyn.

Raczej unikałbym określeń ze słowem "profile", szukam czegoś brzmiącego bardziej naturalnie.

change business (profile)/reorient business (model)


Explanation:
Ja bym się aż tak nie wzbraniał przed „profile”.

[...] HGAA will not have to reorient its business model more profoundly, which might in particular affect its public finance business, which is characterised by low margins.
