Increase in production and distribution generates more employment. Increase in
employment leads, to higher purchasing power with the people. Therefore, people
can enjoy new and better products, which improves standard of living
Economic Growth:
Due to export, the demand increases. Increase in demand leads to higher
production. Higher production increases the GDP of the country which leads to

PRINCIPAL AND PRACTICE OF


EXPORT- IMPORT BUSINESS

THE EXPORT MANAGEMENT - 02

ALFA TUN NUR


BSS (HON’S), MSS(ECONOMICS)
UNIVERSITY OF CHITTAGONG

LECTURE: 11
(B) Need for Export or Export
management At Business Level:
Increase Production Capacity:
For every business unit increase production is necessary, in order to meet domestic demand and
export order. Exports are possible when surplus production is available after meeting domestic
demand.
Organizational Efficiency:
Export management enables a firm to improve its organizational efficiency. E.g. firms have to
emphasize on training and development of employees. This helps to improve knowledge, attitudes,
skills and social behaviors. Therefore, the overall efficiency of the organization improves due to
training, research and other much activities which are encouraged by export management.
Higher Profits Export management enables a business unit to export quality goods at higher prices
and thereby raise the profit margin.
Reputation and Goodwill:
Exports bring reputation to the export firm in international market as well as in the domestic
market. It is assumed that export firms. Produce quality goods which help to develop goodwill. e.g.
some of the world famous firms include Microsoft for computer and Nike for Sports. Sony
for Electronics etc.

Alfa Tun Nur Lecture:11 9/12/2020


Because of increase in export there will be large scale production and
distribution. This will result in I. Economies of large scale production like
discount in bulk purchase of material and reduce cost. II. Economies of large
scale distribution such as freight concession on bulk shipment of goods.
Technological Up gradation:
Continuous research and development activities lead technological development
and improvement in other organisational activities which help in improvement in
quality standards which is beneficial to the form and customers both.
Imports are liberalized:
Business organisations exporting on a large scale collect huge foreign exchange which can
be utilised for the import of new technology machinery and component. This also raises
their competitive capacity.
Spreading of Marketing Risk:
A firm engaged in domestic as well as export marketing activities can spread its
marketing risk. The loss in domestic market can be compensated by the profit, earned in
export market and vice versa.

Alfa Tun Nur Lecture:11 9/12/2020


Government Incentives:
Exporter gets various assistances and incentives for export promotion. These are Duty
Drawback, Excise duty exemption, Income tax exemption, liberal finance etc. These
incentives make export marketing attractive and profitable.
In present global trade, all countries developed as well as developing take special
interest and initiative in making export trade at a very large scale. Thus large scale
exports are necessary for survival and growth of developed as well as developing
countries. Presently U.S.A., European counties, China, Japan, India, Bangladesh and
many other countries, take special measure, for promoting export. This suggests the
significance of exports to all counties developed, developing and even to poor counties.
Therefore it is correct to say that, “Exports are necessary not only for developed
counties but also for developing countries like Bangladesh”.

Alfa Tun Nur Lecture:11 9/12/2020


NATURE /FEATURES OF EXPORT MANAGEMENT

The main features of export management are as follows:


1. Large scale operations:
Export management involves large scale marketing and production operations of goods and services.
Because of large scale business operation the firm gets the benefit of economics of scale and increase
profit margin. Import, of other counties also prefer in placing large orders. Exporters get advantage
of reduce cost and quoting competitive prices in the increase market.
2. Systematic Process:
It is a systematic process became the export manager under takes various marketing activities such as
marketing research, product design, branding, packaging, pricing, promotion etc. All these aspects

export marketing decisions.

3. Three faced Competition:


Foreign trade market is highly competitive in nature. The competition is three dimensional i.e. I.

country. III. Competition from exporter of other nations

Alfa Tun Nur Lecture:11 9/12/2020


4. Trade Barriers:
Export trade is subject to trade barriers tariff and nontariff barriers. The trade barriers are
the restrictions on free movement of goods between countries. Normally countries impose
trade barriers in order to restrict import. The export marketing manager must have a good
knowledge of trade barriers imposed by importing counties.
5. Domination of MNC:
Multinational Corporation has huge investment and conduct business operation all over the
world. Major share of foreign trade is captured by MNCs, and TNCs, (Transnational
corporations). Therefore they dominate in export management activities of the world. Due
to large scale business they get the benefit of economies of scale.
6. Domination of Development counties:
Most of the MNCs belong to industrially developed countries. Such countries like USA,
Japan, Germany etc. produce and sell good quality of goods at low cost on massive scale
with the help of advanced technology. In this way rich and developed countries always
dominate in international business activities.
7. Foreign Exchange Regulation:
Export trade is subject to foreign exchange regulations imposed by countries. These
foreign exchange regulations relate to payment and collection of export proceeds. In
addition, export marketing is subject to other rules and regulations relating to health and
safety, environment protection, etc. All such regulation affect free movement of good
among the countries.
Alfa Tun Nur Lecture:11 9/12/2020
8. Documentation formalities:
Export marketing is subject to various documentation formalities. Exporters require
various documents to submit them to various authorities including customs, port trust, etc.
The documents include Bill of lading, Commercial consular invoice, Shipping bill,
Certificate of origin etc.
9. Marketing Mix:

right product at the right price, at the right place and with the right promotion, the
exporter can adopt different marketing mixes fro different export markets, so as to
maximize exports and earn higher retunes.
10. International Marketing :
Research Knowing more about customers, dealers, and competitors is a must not only in
the domestic markets but also in the export markets. Marketing research is a must in export
business due to various factors, such as diversities on social, economic, and political
environments of distant markets.
11.Advance Technology:
Export marketing is highly competitive. An exporter should be able to sell quality articles at
competitive price. Use of advanced computer – oriented technology is a must for making
the goods globally competitive. World markets are dominated by developed countries due to
intensive use of computer technology.

Alfa Tun Nur Lecture:11 9/12/2020


12. Globalise or perish:
Foreign trade is the need of each country. Because some important goods a country has to import like
technology and goods which are not available in domestic market to export to get foreign exchange,
otherwise it will perish economically.
13. Subject to Regulation:

The export markets differ in languages, customs and traditions. The exporter may not be able to cope
up with these diversities. Therefore, he has to be selective, he should be deal in only such markets
where he can easily handle or overcome such differences or diversities.
15. High Amount of Risk:
Export business is profitable than domestic business. But it is more risky also. Such as cancellation of
order, non-collection of document, non-payment, transport risk, foreign regulation risk etc. these risk
can be reduced by taking various insurance cover from various insurance agents. Risk can be spread
also by exporting goods to many countries, so that loss in one market is compensated by the project
other market.
16.Sensitive and Flexible Character:
An exporter has to identify the specific requirement or foreign buyers and design the goods accordingly, but
sometimes because of technological development new design of good may be supplied by other exporters due to
which demand for this goods may go down. Therefore exporter has to offer continuous support and loyalty.
