...RUNNING HEAD: EXPANSION AND MERGER Expansion and Merger ECO 550 – Managerial Economics and Globalization Xiaodong Wu Ph.D., Instructor August 26, 2012 Expansion and Merger The essence of retail marketing is developing merchandise and services that satisfy specific needs of customers, and supplying them at prices that will yield profits. Competition in the today's business marketplace often demands that organizations merge with each other to remain competitive and increase revenue, profits and market share. Others may be looking to consolidate their operations to achieve economies of scale and standardization of processes. Mergers and acquisitions occur when a company buys, sells, or combines with another company within the same country or across borders (Luthans & Doh, 2009). Government regulation is constantly present in our lives. This paper is a continuation from assignment two and will look at how government regulations affect expansion and merger in the retail industry. “Mergers can be competitive strategies, or they can be attempts to create firms large enough to exercise market power” (Michaels, 2011). Successful mergers are a combination of four critical components: culture, business practices, technology, and time. Bringing...

...News Flash from Hidesign 4 July 11 It's 12.30 pm. The rendezvous has been fixed: a small café, a floor above the Hidesign store in Ambience Mall in New Delhi — we can't be seen. Dilip Kapur and I meet and exchange passwords, read pleasantries. Dressed casually in a linen shirt and loose jeans, the only thing that are a secret-mission giveaway are his sunglasses. True to his brand, the man carries a Hidesign casual leather bag. This is Hidesign's newest outlet and Kapur is keen to find out how it is doing. He also wants to figure out if its intensive six-month training programme for the shop floor assistants is working. "We do this regularly. Our mystery shoppers go to all our outlets to adjudge the stores on stock, store layout, assistants' knowledge levels and ability to handle a customer," he says. Soon, we take the escalator down to the store. After five minutes of looking around, the shop assistant finally approaches us. "I like the approach. She didn't hound us immediately," he notes later. Hidesign started with a small factory in Puducherry and is present in 12 cities through 60 outlets. Five more are in the works this year. It employs more than 1,800 people on the shop floors and has a turnover of more than Rs 100 crore. It was one of the early entrants to launch branded bags and accessories at a time when the category was dominated by the unorganised sector. Later this year, the company plans to enter a joint venture with Italy's casual leather bag major Braccalini...

Jakir Hossain Dr. Klaus Solberg Søilen ID # 670504-P777 Academic Supervisor E-mail: mjho05@student.bth.se hossainj67@yahoo.com Date: 07 June, 2006 Abstract This thesis is an attempt to investigate how the use of promotional activities can help to develop the tourism industry by giving a special concentration to the case of Bangladesh.

Many countries are now dependent on this sector for foreign currency earnings. Every destination country is trying to achieve more gain by developing this industry. The expansion of the tourism through out the world has increased competition among the tourist destinations, trying to attract more tourists by adopting appropriate marketing techniques and strategies.

...Master Thesis in Marketing STRONG BRANDS How Brand Strategy and Brand Communication Contribute to Build Brand Equity THE CASE OF NAVIGATOR Student: Daniela Yasenova Baeva Supervisor: Professor Doctor Arnaldo Fernandes Matos Coelho May, 2011 Master Thesis in Marketing STRONG BRANDS – How Brand Strategy and Brand Communication Contribute to Build Brand Equity: THE CASE OF NAVIGATOR 1 ABSTRACT In a world of global competition that we are living nowadays, brands are each time more used by companies as a strategy to create value and differentiation and this way to be one step ahead of their rivals. A "brand" is the result of the recognition and the personal attachment that forms in the hearts and minds of the customers through their accumulated experience with that “brand”. These experiences contribute to increased consumer trust and loyalty and allow building strong relationships with the “brand”. By this way, “brands” promote the increase of shareholder value and establish a long-term advantage in the marketplace for organisations. Companies recognise that strong brands are and have been historically associated with accelerated revenue growth and improved returns to shareholders. That is why, each time more organisations focus their strategies on building powerful brands as they represent competitive advantage and they are a key success factor in creating value to the customer and at the same time value to the company. In this regard, this study intends to show...
