19. Since the case does not provide us with enough demographic data, Natura should not enter Russia, since Russian market does not cope with the company’s environmental positioning and the cultural barriers seem hard to trespass. Considering the scarce data available, we recommend as the next step towards global expansion, entering UK, with a hybrid model: through Greenfield operation and store chain – ALTERNATIVE 3B Although costly and risky, UK has a strong C&T market, as well as a strong direct-sales culture. Shipments to UK would less costly to Natura, once the products can come together with the French orders. “ Natura’s decision-making process combines: financial, philosophical and emotional components envisioning a balanced value creation to shareholders, society and environment.”
