CASE STUDY 1
Big business is attractive, with huge profits for some. But there’s something to be said about small business as well, with lower risk and the potential for creativity. Darren Robbins of Big D Custom Screen Printing in Austin, TX found success in his business by pursuing customers with orders both large and small. Although Big D started out catering only to large orders, the shop sat idle in between orders, and through effective scheduling and transparent pricing, was able to fill in dead times with smaller orders. Big D found a profit in a market segment that other local screen printers weren’t clamoring to fill. Experts believe this was a smart strategy, allowing Big D to spread out risk in their business and offer customized products. But at least one person is critical of the offering, pointing out that the niche has little upside potential, and may hurt the company’s efficiency.
Answer the following question.
Q1. What strategy was adopted by Big D forprofit?
Q2. Give an overview of the case.
Case study 2:
The 2000s witnessed the entry of several international retailers into emerging markets. The reason for this could be as much attributed to saturated markets and cut-throat competition in developed countries as to the untapped opportunities in emerging markets. Tesco, the UK-based retailer, operated in several emerging markets in Europe and Asia. The case focuses on the entry and expansion strategies of Tesco in the Chinese market. Tesco made several international forays in the 1990s and 2000s. Tesco developed an international strategy that involved having consistent processes and policies while making localization efforts that took into account cultural differences and local preferences.
The Chinese retail sector offered huge opportunities for international retailers with the average annual growth in the last 20 years being around 15 percent. Tesco entered China in 2004, after several successful Asian ventures including Thailand, South Korea, and Japan. The Chinese market was a very different market in terms of tastes and preferences from the other markets that Tesco operated in. Therefore, it decided to enter the country through a joint venture so that it could learn about the market through its partner, which had operated in the market for several years. Also, by the time Tesco entered China, other multinational retailers like Wal-Mart and Carrefour were already well established in the market.
Tesco faced the challenges in an emerging market like China by adopting strategies to suit that market. Some of the strategies like entry and expansion strategies, store management, and localization strategies..
Questions
- Analyze the entry of Tesco in an emerging market such as China.
- Discuss how Tesco implemented the localization strategies in China.
- Examine the challenges faced by Tesco in China.
- Explain the growth and development of the retail industry in China.
Case Study 3
Advertising costs money, which many businesses find themselves short of these days. But forgoing ad spending in favor of better profits can be a mistake. Experts say that in a slump, one of the best things you can do is adopt or increase your advertising strategy to attract customers. During a recession, this is especially true, as other businesses may be cutting back on their ad spending, making your voice even more prominent to customers. After seven years of growth, building from 30 to 300 locations, Firehouse Subs’ growth fizzled, and company leaders realized they had to do something about it. So they returned local advertising fees collected from franchisees, not to put in their pockets, but to take hold of their own local marketing. Sales fell even more, revealing that this was not a good strategy at the time. Instead, Firehouse reclaimed their local marketing fee, and then gave franchisees the option to take part in a new marketing campaign, requiring them to pay double for local marketing, but in return, becoming part of an million advertising campaign poised for success. Experts commend Firehouse for having the courage to ask franchisees for more money where it was needed, even when times were tough.
Answer the following question.
Q1. Why proper advertising is necessary, during recession period?
Q2. Give an overview of the case.

CASE 1
Kodak started selling photographic equipment on Japan 1889 and by the 1930s it had a dominant position in the Japanese market. But after World War II, U.S occupation forces persuaded most U.S companies including Kodak to leave Japan to give the war torn local industry a chance to recover. Kodak was effectively priced out of the market by tariff barriers; over the next 35 years Fuji gained 70% share of the market while Kodak saw its share slip to miserable 5%. During this period Kodak limited much of its activities in Japan.
This situation persisted until early 1980s when Fuji launched an aggressive export drive, attacking Kodak in the north American and European markets. Deciding that a good offence is the best defense, in 1984 and the next six year, Kodak outspent Fuji in Japan by a ratio of more than 3 to 1. It erected mammoth $ 1 million near signs as land marks in many of the Japan’s big cities and also sponsored Sumo wrestling, Judo, and tennis tournaments and even the Japanese team at the 1988 Seoul Olympics. Thus Kodak has put Fuji on defensive, forcing it to divert resources from overseas to defend itself at home. By 1990’s, some of Fuji’s best executives had been pulled back to Tokyo.
All this success, however , was apparently not enough for Kodak. In may 1995, Kodak filed a petition with the US trade office, that accured the Japanese government and Fuji of “Unfair trading practices”. According to the petition, the Japanese government helped to create a ‘ profile sanctuary’ for Fuji in Japan by systematically denying Kodak access to Japanese distribution channels for consumer film and paper. Kodak claims Fuji has effectively shut Kodak products out of four distributors that have a 70% share of the photo distribution market. Fuji has an equity position in two of the distributors, gives large year –end relates and cash payments to all four distributors as a reward for their loyalty to Fuji, and owns stakes in the banks that finance them. Kodak also claims that Fuji uses similar tactics to control 430 wholesale photo furnishing labs in Japan to which it is the exclusive supplier. Moreover Kodak’s petition claims that the Japanese government has actively encourages these practices.
But Fuji a similar counter arguments relating to Kodak in U.S. and states bluntly that Kodak’s charges are a clear case of the pot calling the kettle back.
- What was the critical catalyst that led Kodak to start taking the Japanese market seriously?
- From the evidence given in the case do you think Kodak’s charges of unfair trading practices against Fuji are valid? Support your answer.
CASE 2
Two Senior executives of world’s largest firms with extensive holdings outside the home country speak. Company A : “We are a multinational firm. We distribute our products in about 100 countries. We manufacture in over 17 countries and do research and development in three countries. We look at all new investment projects both domestic and overseas using exactly the same criteria”.
The execution from company A continues, “ of course the most of the key ports in our subsidiaries are held by home country nationals. Whenever replacements for these men are sought, it is the practice, if not the policy, to look next to you at the lead office and pick some one (usually a home country national) you know and trust”.
Company B : “ We are multinational firm. Our product division executives have worldwide profit responsibility. As our organisational chart shows, the united states is just one region on a par with Europe, Latin America, Africa etc, in each division”.
The executive from Company B goes on to explain, “the worldwide Product division concept is rather difficult to implement. The senior executives incharge of this divisions have little overseas experience. They have been promoted from domestic ports and tend to view foreign consumers needs as really basically the same as ours. Also, product division executives tend to focus on domestic market, because it generates more revenue than foreign market. The rewards are for global performance, but strategy is to focus on domestic. Most of the senior executives simply do not understand what happens overseas and really do not trust foreign executives, even those in key portions?

Strategic R & D by TNCs in Developing Countries
TNCs have had long units in developing host countries for adapting products and processes to the local conditions, and in a few cases, to products for local markets. Since the min-1980s, however, they have also started locating strategic R & D centres in some developing countries, for developing generic technologies and products for regional or global markets. The main incentives for this are : (a) access to highly qualified scientists as shortages of research personnel emerge in certain fields in industrialised countries, (b) Cost differentials in research salaries between developing and industrialised countries, and (c) rationalisation of operations, assigning particular affiliates the responsibility for developing, manufacturing, and marketing particular products worldwide. Th new trends are more visible in industries dealing with new technologies, such as microelectronics, biotechnology, and new materials. In these technologies, the location of R & D can be geographically de -linked more easily from the location of manufacturing. It is also possible to separate R & D in core activities from that in non- core activities. Consequently, countries like India, Israel, Singapore, Malaysia or Brazil serve TNCs as good locations for strategic R & D.
For instance, Sony Corporation of Japan has around nine R & D units in Asian developing countries. It has three units in Singapore conducting R & D on core components such as optical data shortage devices, integrated chip design for audio products and CD-ROM drives, and multimedia and microchip software. It has three units in Malaysia working on video design, derivative models and circuit blocks for new TV chases, radio cassettes, discman and hi-fi receiver designs. It has one unit in Republic of Korea focusing on the design of compact discs, radio cassettes, tape recorders, and car stereos. It has one in Taiwan designing and developing video tape-recorders, minidisk players, video CDs, and duplicators. Finally, it has one unit in Indonesia focusing on the design of audio products.
Such units often work in collaboration with science and technology institutes in the host country. For instance, Daimler Benz has established such a unit in Bangalore, India, in collaboration with the Indian Institute of Science to work on projects related to its vehicles and avionics business. Current work includes interface design of avionics landing systems and smart GPS sensors for use by the group’s business worldwide.

CASE STUDY
Research has shown that nonfinancial incentives can have equal effect on employee motivation when compared with standard financial incentive systems. In a society that does not allow for significant income disparity, nonfinancial incentives can play a key role in motivating employees to sell. Nonfinancial incentives for employees include: Reserved preferred parking spaces Increasingly flexible work hours (e.g. late start) Additional vacation hours Reduced work hours on Fridays Free meals or gym membership Access to a company vehicle Tickets to popular events The specifics of these incentives can be tailored to fit the available incentive budget. In addition, management should query the employees to determine other areas of interest for future incentives. In order to emphasize the desired corporate culture, recognition for high performing employees should be public; moreover, attendance for public recognition events should be mandatory for all employees. By providing such recognition, a social structure can be established that intrinsically motivates employees to perform and thus gain status. Public recognition can be combined with nonfinancial incentives in order to establish a focused strategy for motivating employees to perform to their utmost. nature of Austrians promotes herding of people, there is a danger of social rejection if an employee is seen as different from the group. Hence, the employee must be perceived as being rewarded for contributing to the collective good. When establishing culture change, it is critical that employees be comfortable with management so that they have confidence in the path forward and are not afraid to raise new ideas and objections, which can often be incredibly helpful to the process. It also increases the likelihood that employees will “buy in” to the new culture. In order to conquer the gap between both multinational backgrounds and between management and employees, teambuilding events that mix cultures and job functions should be established. The type of events can be tailored to the employees’ interests (e.g. lunches, company retreats, sporting events, or other activities). Cross functional collaboration between various service departments is essential for client to implement core mission value and transition from a service based company to a solutions based company. Managers and employees must be educated on the various offering in other departments. Cross functional team projects and activities will ensure that employees get to know their counterparts in other departments and understand the benefits of solutions based offerings.
