You are the Business development manager of the company and are in favor of entering all three markets since they all seem to be highly profitable. However, the CEO of the company is skeptical and doesn’t want to risk entering three markets at the same time. The directors are also of the view that they have to pay duty and other taxes which can take a major hit on the bottom line. You have been asked to recommend one market that the company should enter first. Give your in-depth analysis for choosing that particular market.
As I have assigned on a position of Business development manager in the company, I will suggest the market of Japan because it is not only highly profitable market, but also provide great opportunity for the new entrant who want to establish their sweet products in this emerging and big market. However, we are well-established brand in USA and carry a great standing from the past few decades. These past successful years can also help us in making our brand establish among those consumers who are looking for high quality safe products, especially when it comes to healthy and safe sweet products that we can see in the consumer market of Japan.
We are exploring the confectionary market of France, Japan and Poland, we want to make sure that our product that is provided to these markets are safe and meet the high quality standard. The challenges that can be faced by us are:
– Competitors: The presence of few of the well-established players in this market.
– Labor Force: As, the established brands have built their brand reputation, supply networks and loyal customers in these markets that is one of the biggest issue which our company can face that already have well-established suppliers and customer relationships.
– Issue of Product Display: When it comes to product display on shelves best placement is already taken by these established brands who already exist in these confectionary markets (Lee et al.).
