Unit 2 Discussion
Drivers of Globalization in Practice: Global Business Needs
When considering a country to enter with respect to global trade, business leaders must determine if the particular country under consideration has a sufficiently acceptable environment in which to operate. Based on your Readings and Learning Activities, consider Katjes Fassin Group, a German candy company headquartered in Emmerich, Germany. It is a growing candy company with 2013 sales of $445 million, 1,200 employees, and six manufacturing plants. Recently, its top management has been considering several possible expansion locations and the former Soviet state of Latvia is one contender. Based on your Reading and Learning Activities, discuss the following:
- What would Katjes Fassin’s top management want to know about the business environment in Latvia before reaching an expansion decision, and why?
Be sure to address the Discussion topic(s) in an initial post of at least 100 words no later than Saturday night Eastern Time. Be sure to respond to at least two others (not including the professor) and participate in the Discussion by posting on three different days of the unit.
