Using examples from the business context, evaluate the mode of
entry adopted by firms.
Entering a new market is always a risky business, with a big risk of failure.
Mode of Entry
Mode of entry (cont..)
When a firm is going to explore a foreign market, the choice of the best mode of entry will arise in the firm’s expansion strategy.
The choice of mode for entering a foreign market is thus a major issue.
3 Main Categories of Mode of Entry
Export
• Direct Export
• Indirect Export
Contractual
• Turnkey Projects
• Licensing• Franchising
Investment
• Joint Venture
• Wholly owned subsidiary
Exporting
Frequently employed mode of internationalization.
One of the simplest and most
common approaches adopted by firms in their endeavour to enter foreign markets.
Exporting (cont...) A simple definition of exporting :
‘An action by a firm to send produced goods and services from the home country to other countries.’
According to Kotler (2000:374)
the normal way to get involved into a foreign market is through export.
Generally firms export for two reasons:
1. Firms need experiential knowledge
Exporting has the potential to provide firms with international experience without their taking high risk or strong commitment.
2. To expand their sales in order to achieve economies of scale.
Two types of Export
• Producer sells directly to the importer
• Very little or no knowledge about the foreign market is needed
Direct Export
• A firm in the domestic country is used to do the exporting for the manufacturer
• The sale of a firm’s products in foreign markets through an export agent
Indirect Export
Direct Export
This mode gives the company a greater degree of control over its distribution channels.
Indirect Exporting
This mode is seen as a good way of gaining knowledge
about a potentially interesting market.
