Emerging and Developing CountriesUNIT 17
Challenges and Problems of doing business in Africa and developing
countries…
Business Challenges in Developing Countries
• Financial challenges- high cost of communicating with markets because infrastructure and communication channels are limited.
• Type of product- smaller quantities and cheaper, basic packaging to make products affordable.
• Socio-cultural values- organisations must make an effort to understand and acknowledge different socio-cultural values when marketing to developing countries.
• Political climate- unstable political circumstances are a reality in many developing countries and have a direct impact on the marketing attempts of organisations.
• Legal restrictions- law and regulations governing minimum standards, product packaging and labelling, among others, vary extensively and marketers must make sure they are up to date with the latest facts in this regard.
• Competition and trading blocs- marketing efforts of organisations in developing countries have to compete with their counterparts from developed countries.
