Tata Motors acquired Daewoo Commercial Vehicles of Korea in 2004. The acquisition gave Tata Motors access to Daewoo's advanced technology and products for heavy commercial vehicles. It also allowed Tata Motors to enter new international markets. Tata Motors worked hard to integrate Daewoo and address employees' concerns by communicating Tata's philosophy, respecting Korean culture, and keeping Daewoo executives in place. The acquisition has been successful, with Daewoo launching new products, doubling exports, and increasing market share in Korea and India.
