22. International Marketing
International marketing is “marketing on a worldwide scale reconciling or taking
commercial advantage of global operational differences, similarities and opportunities in
order to meet global objectives".
International marketing is also a field of study in general business management to provide
valuable products, solutions and services to customers locally, nationally, internationally and
worldwide.
International marketing is the export, franchising, joint venture or full direct entry of an
organization's product or services into another country. This can be achieved by exporting a
company's product into another location, entry through a joint venture with another firm in the
target country, or foreign direct investment into the target country. The development of the
marketing mix for that country is then required - international marketing.

31. Trade Blocs
Trading blocs
A regional trading bloc is a group of countries within a geographical region that
protect themselves from imports from non-members. Trading blocs are a form of
economic integration, and increasingly shape the pattern of world trade. There are
several types of trading bloc:
Preferential Trade Area
Preferential Trade Areas (PTAs) exist when countries within a geographical region
agree to reduce or eliminate tariff barriers on selected goods imported from other
members of the area. This is often the first small step towards the creation of a
trading bloc.
32. Trade Blocs
Free Trade Area
Free Trade Areas (FTAs) are created when two or more countries in a region
agree to reduce or eliminate barriers to trade on all goods coming from other
members.
Customs Union
A customs union involves the removal of tariff barriers between members, plus the
acceptance of a common (unified) external tariff against non-members. This
means that members may negotiate as a single bloc with 3rd parties, such as with
other trading blocs, or with the WTO.
33. Trade Blocs
Some examples include :
The World Trade Organisation (WTO),
The North American Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA),
The Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN)
European Union – 28 (EU-28)
Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC)
