Factors

Many companies successfully operate in a niche market without ever expanding into new markets. Some businesses achieve increased sales, brand awareness and business stability by entering a new market. Developing a market-entry strategy involves a thorough analysis of potential competitors and possible customers. Some of the relevant factors that are important in deciding the viability of entry into a particular market include trade barriers, localized knowledge, price localization, competition, and export subsidies.

Market entry and trade risks

Some of the risks incurred when entering a new market and start domestic or international trade include:

  • Weather risk
  • Systematic risk, different from systemic risk, the systematic risk is the risk inherent to the entire market or an entire market segment
  • Sovereign risk
  • Foreign exchange risk
  • Liquidity risk
  • Cultural risk

While some companies prefer to develop their own their market entry plans, other outsource to specialised companies. The knowledge of the local or target market by those specialized companies can mitigate trade risk.

Other market entry strategies include:

  • Production at home
    • Indirect exporting (export merchant)
    • Direct exporting (foreign customer, agent, distributor, representative office, foreign branch, foreign subsidiary)
  • Production abroad
    • without direct investment (management contract, franchising, licensing, contract manufacturing)
    • with direct investment (partly owned subsidiary, acquisition of a foreign company, set up a new company, equity joint venture)
