Your seminar tutor will allocate you a large company which operates
internationally. Dependent on this you may wish to identify a particular product
within the company you have chosen and indeed specific markets (two culturally
different countries of your choice) to focus your evaluation on.
You are required to conduct an evaluation of the international marketing
processes/activities undertaken by this company. You will be required to research
and identify what the company profile internationally looks like, the marketing choices
made and competitive landscape amongst others.
Through the use of theory, you will be required to evaluate what the company has
done internationally, how effective this has been, how it differs across international
markets they operate in and any examples of best practice or things that did not work
etc.
The end product of this assignment is an evaluation of your chosen company in two or
more international markets (two culturally different countries of your choice), how they
have achieved success in these and overcame market and competitor challenges.
Ultimately you want to, through this assignment, demonstrate how market offerings
within a company can differ based on the international market or country’s local
requirements. This brief will be discussed in more detail in class.
PLEASE NOTE – Your seminar tutor will allocate you a company and ideally you
should select two international markets (two countries by yourself) to review which
are considered to be culturally different. This will allow you to compare two
countries and allow you a greater opportunity to research and evaluate the
international marketing practices of the company (i.e., similarities and differences
in two culturally different countries to overcome competition, other environmental
factors and meet the needs and wants of customers) to achieve successful outcomes
for the company.
Submission: 12th April 2022 – 3500 words maximum. Please ensure you pay particular
