DEFINATION
A market entry strategy is the planned method of
delivering goods or services to a target market and distributing
them there. When importing or exporting services, it refers to
establishing and managing contracts in a foreign country.’’
3. BASIC ISSUES
An organization willing to “go international” faces 3 major issues.
• Marketing –which countries, which segments, how to manage, how to
enter, with what information.
• Sourcing – whether to obtain products, makeor buy.
• Investment &Control – Joint Venture, global partner, acquisition.

• LICENSING
• FRANCHISING
• JOINTVENTURING
• CONTRACT MANUFACTURING
• MERGERS & ACQUASITIONS
• COUNTER TRADE
• TURNKEY CONTRACTS
• THIRD COUNTRYLOCATION
4. EXPORTING
• Exporting is the most traditional and well established form of operating in foreign
markets.
• Exporting can be defined as the marketing of goods produced in one country into
another.
• Whilst no direct manufacturing is required in an overseas country, significant
investments in marketing are required.
• The tendency may be not to obtain as much detailed marketing information as
compared to manufacturing in marketing country.
• Those firms who are aggressive have clearly defined plans and strategy, including
product, price, promotion, distribution and research elements.
• In countries like Tanzania and Zambia, which have embarked on structural adjustment
programs, organizations are being encouraged to export, motivated by foreign exchange
earnings potential, saturated domestic markets, growth and expansion objectives, and
the need to repay debts incurred by the borrowings to finance the programs.
• The type of export response is dependent on how the pressures are perceived by the
decision maker.
FRANCHISING
• Players : Franchisor & Franchisee.
• In terms of distribution, the franchisor is a supplier who allows an operator, or a
franchisee, to use the supplier's trademark and distribute the supplier's goods.
• In return, the operator pays the supplier a fee.
• Thirty three countries, including the United States, and Australia, have laws that
regulate franchising.
• Franchising is the practice of using another firm's successful business model.
• For the franchisor, the franchise is an alternative to building ‘Chain Stores’ to distribute
goods that avoids the investments and liability of a chain.
• The franchisor's success depends on the success of the franchisees.
5. • The franchisee is said to have a greater incentive than a direct employee because he or
she has a direct stake in the business.
Examples :-
LICENSING
Licensing is defined as "the method of foreign operation whereby a firm in one
country agrees to permit a company in another country to use the manufacturing,
processing, trademark, know-how or some other skill provided by the licensor".
Licensing involves little expense and involvement.
The only cost is signing the agreement and policing its implementation.
It is quite similar to the "franchise" operation.
Coca Cola is an excellent example of licensing.
In Zimbabwe, United Bottlers have the license to make Coke.
JOINT VENTURES
• Joint ventures can be defined as "an enterprise in which two or more investors share
ownership and control over property rights and operation."
• It is a very common strategy of entering the foreign market.
• Any form of association which implies collaboration for more than a transitory period is
a joint venture.
• A joint venture may be brought about by a foreign investor showing an interest in local
company,
• A local firm acquiring an interest in an existing foreign firm or
• By both the foreign and local entrepreneurs jointly forming a new enterprise.
