store promotion– Are quality products at low prices

Summary (1 of 2)
• The growing globalization of markets must be balanced with the continuing need to assess all markets for those differences that might require adaptation for successful acceptance
• In spite of the forces of homogenization, consumers also see the world of global symbols, company images, and product choice through the lens of their own local culture and its stage of development and market sophistication
