• Reasons companies might consider International
expansion:
– Global competitors attacking the domestic market,
– Foreign markets might offer higher profit
opportunities,
– Domestic markets might be shrinking,
– Need an enlarged customer base to achieve
economies of scale,
– Reduce dependency on any one market,
– Customers might be expanding abroad.
• Most companies do not act until some situation or
event thrusts them into the international market.
