Full textEn este sentido, la presente tesis identifica y propone para su posterior análisis los siguientes temas de real importancia para explicar el comportamiento y rendimiento exportador de las PYMEs: 1) El papel de las características y las percepciones del directivo a la hora de determinar la participación y expansión de la actividad exportadora, 2) La influencia de los determinantes internos y externos sobre el rendimiento exportador objetivo y sobre la satisfacción con el resultado exportador; y el potencial impacto de ciertas dimensiones del rendimiento exportador (objetivas) sobre otras dimensiones de rendimiento exportador (subjetivas), 3) Y por último, la influencia del grado de estandardización/adaptación de la estrategia genérica de marketing internacional sobre el rendimiento exportador objetivo y la satisfacción con el resultado exportador, al mismo tiempo que se investigará cómo esta relación está moderada por ciertos determinantes internos y externos.
El marco teórico se basa en varios enfoques: el enfoque gradual del fenómeno de la internacionalización, la teoría de recursos y capacidades aplicada en el contexto internacional, la teoría de redes y el enfoque de contingencia con respecto a la estrategia de marketing internacional. Para la realización de esta tesis se emplearon tanto la metodología cualitativa (Capítulo 1) así como la cuantitativa (Capítulos 2 y 3). Mediante el empleo de la metodología cualitativa, basada en estudios de caso, se logró una profunda comprensión del proceso de internacionalización de las PYMES Españolas. Por consiguiente, se ha desarrollado un cuestionario estructurado con el propósito llevar a cabo el estudio cuantitativo.
Los datos fueron recogidos a través de una encuesta en línea dirigida a los directivos a cargo de la actividad exportadora de las PYMES Españolas. Para el tratamiento empírico de los datos recolectados se empleó tanto el análisis univariante como multivariante, empleando el Paquete Estadístico para las Ciencias Sociales (SPSS) y los Modelos de Ecuaciones Estructurales (SEM) - Análisis de Estructuras de Momento.
Los resultados muestran que, coincidiendo con la teoría de recursos y capacidades, el papel del directivo, en particular su orientación internacional, parece ser crucial para la actividad exportadora de las PYMEs. Sin embargo, la influencia de ciertas características y percepciones de los directivos parece ser más importante según la fase del proceso de internacionalización en la cual se encuentra la empresa o tener un impacto mayor en algunos indicadores relacionados al rendimiento exportador. Los resultados también revelan la existencia de una relación positiva entre el rendimiento exportador objetivo (la intensidad exportadora y el número de mercados y zonas de exportación) y el rendimiento exportador subjetivo (satisfacción del directivo con la posición de exportación, la rentabilidad de la actividad exportadora y el acceso a nuevos mercados), relación que no había sido abordada previamente en la literatura. Por otra parte, los resultados empíricos muestran que el éxito en la actividad exportadora puede lograrse mediante el empleo de una estrategia genérica de marketing internacional más estandarizada o bien una estrategia más localizada. La estandardización y la adaptación no deben considerarse, por sí solos, como estrategias puras, sino que deben entenderse desde la perspectiva de la contingencia la cual sugiere la presencia de un equilibrio entre la estandardización y la adaptación de la estrategia de marketing internacional, cuya interacción daría lugar a mejores resultados de exportación. Este estudio identificó tres variables contingentes tanto internas como externas, más concretamente el tamaño de la empresa, la intensidad tecnológica de la industria y los factores del entorno que moderan la relación establecida entre la estrategia genérica de marketing internacional y el rendimiento exportador, medido de forma objetiva y subjetiva.
En cuanto a las implicaciones para los empresarios, los directivos deben ser conscientes de que actualmente, debido al rápido desarrollo tecnológico junto con la eliminación de numerosas barreras comerciales, la entrada en mercados extranjeros no es tan arriesgada como solía ser en el pasado, mientras que representa una alternativa viable para el crecimiento de la empresa y la búsqueda de mayores beneficios. El papel fundamental en la mejora del rendimiento exportador objetivo está directamente relacionado con el conocimiento de lenguas extranjeras y de negocios internacionales del directivo, junto con el firme compromiso de la empresa con la actividad exportadora. Por lo tanto, los principales esfuerzos deben dirigirse hacia la adquisición de estas habilidades, así como dedicar más recursos a las operaciones de exportación, de forma sistemática y organizada. Por consiguiente, los esfuerzos en términos de política también deben enfocarse a mejorar la orientación internacional de los directivos con el fin de llevar a buen término la formulación y puesta en práctica de estrategias de internacionalización.
Como líneas de investigación futura sería interesante replicar estudios similares en otros contextos geográficos, de esta manera los resultados de esta tesis podrían ser generalizados a distintos entornos. Además, sería aconsejable llevar a cabo un análisis longitudinal, a la vez que se recomienda considerar variables compuestas como, por ejemplo, el grado de orientación internacional del directivo, la estandardización y la adaptación de la estrategia de marketing internacional o el rendimiento exportador. De esta forma, estas variables multidimensionales podrían ser analizadas desde una perspectiva temporal, lo que permitiría llevar a cabo una investigación de relaciones causa-efecto.
The present dissertation aims to contribute to the international business and marketing literature by shedding light on the export behaviour and performance of small and medium enterprises (SMEs), in the Spanish geographical context, which represents one of the European settings characterised by high SMEs density and workforce employed by these enterprises. Spain's economic growth is vastly dependent on the results of the export activity. In spite of their relevance, there is a scarcity of research in the SME export centred literature, within the Spanish context, thus it becomes apparent that more investigations should be carried out in this particular setting.
In this sense, the present study identifies and proposes for further analysis the following topics of increased importance for SMEs' export activity and performance: 1) The role played by managerial characteristics and perceptions in determining export involvement and expansion; 2) The influence the internal and external determinants have on objective export performance and satisfaction with export performance and the potential impact of certain dimensions of export performance on other export performance dimensions; 3) The influence the standardisation/adaptation of the overall international marketing strategy has on objective export performance and satisfaction with export performance, simultaneously investigating how this relationship is moderated by certain internal and external determinants.
Theoretical support is provided by several approaches: the gradualist approach to the internationalisation phenomenon, the Resource Based View (RBV) applied in the international context, the network theory and the contingency approach to the international marketing strategy. Both qualitative (Chapter 1) and quantitative (Chapter 2 and 3) methodologies have been combined for the completion of this dissertation. By employing the qualitative methodology based on in-depth case studies profound understanding of the internationalisation process in Spanish SMEs was gained. Consequently, a structured questionnaire was developed for further carrying out the quantitative study.
Data was collected through an online survey addressed to the decision maker in charge of the export activity in Spanish SMEs. For empirically treating the quantitative data univariate and multivariate analysis with the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS) and Structural Equation Modelling (SEM) - Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) were performed.
The results show that, concurring with the RBV, decision maker's role, particularly his/her international outlook appears to be crucial for SME's export activity. Nevertheless, the influence of certain managerial characteristics and perceptions seems to be more prominent according to the internationalisation stage or to have a stronger impact on some export performance indicators. The findings also reveal the existence of a positive relationship between the objective export performance (export intensity and the number of export markets and zones) and the subjective export performance (managerial satisfaction with export position, export profitability and new market entry), relationship that to the best of our knowledge has not been explored before. Moreover, the empirical results display that successful export performance could be achieved by employing either a more standardised or a more adapted overall level of the international marketing strategy. Standardisation and adaptation should not be considered, in isolation, as pure strategies, but rather should be understood from a contingency perspective which suggests a balance between the standardisation and the adaptation of international marketing strategy would lead to increased export performance. This study identified three internal and external contingent variables, namely the size of the firm, the technological intensity of the industry and the environmental factors, that moderate the relation established between the overall international marketing strategy and export performance, measured both in an objective and a subjective manner.
Regarding the implications for practitioners, decision makers should be aware that, presently, due to rapid technological development along with the removal of various trade barriers, entering overseas markets is not bearing as much risk as it used to in the past, while representing a viable alternative for firm's growth and pursuit of higher profits. The fundamental role in improving objective export performance is played by their own foreign language skills, international business knowledge and firm's commitment to exporting, hence efforts should be directed towards acquiring these abilities as well as devoting resources to the export operations, in a systematic and organised manner. Therefore, policy initiatives should also aim at enhancing the development of decision maker's international outlook with a view to successfully formulating and putting into practice internationalisation strategies.
As future research directions it would be interesting to replicate similar studies in distinct geographical contexts, so the results could be generalised to larger populations. Longitudinal analysis should also be conducted, thus complex constructs such as the degree of international orientation of the decision maker, the standardisation/adaptation of the international marketing strategy or the export performance could be analysed from a time-based perspective, allowing for the investigation of composite cause-effect relationships.

Full textThe empirical research was conducted through a field study and a cross-sectional questionnaire survey sent to multinational firms with headquarters in Europe and North America. The results suggest that competitive strategy and organizational capability perspectives are most significant in determining the choice of entry mode. The transaction cost perspective does not appear to be significant.
One broad implication for managers is the importance of both analyzing the characteristics of the chosen product-market and critically examining the firm's capabilities in order to focus on what it does best, build upon it and, where necessary, complement this through collaboration with others.

Full textIn 1985, the writer joined the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) as an export trade advisor in the Western Cape Regional Office. The function of this position is to encourage companies to export and to assist companies registered as exporters with their export endeavours. In this capacity, the writer came into contact with more than 1,000 companies covering a wide range of products, problems, attitudes and situations. It became apparent to the writer that a large number of these companies lacked a marketing orientation in their export activities. There also appeared to be a poor success rate among these exporters in that probably as many as half of the number of registered exporters never achieved any export sales and of the remaining exporters only a few obtained substantial, ongoing and profitable sales abroad. The writer believed that if these companies approached their export activities in a more marketing orientated fashion, their success rate would be significantly improved. This begged the question as to whether a relationship actually exists between export marketing orientation and export success. It is the abovementioned relationship that this study primarily addresses. It was decided to keep the scope of this study confined to manufacturing companies in the Western Cape registered as exporters with the DTI.

Full textBackground
International trade has dramatically increased during the last half of the 20th century and it is now of significant importance to most eco-nomies. International trade is especially crucial to countries such as Sweden, with a small domestic market. It has been said that a com-pany needs to have a committed management, as well as a strategy for it’s export and it’s marketing to reach long-term success. Never-theless, companies sometimes use a “strategy of least involvement”, leaving the international marketing strategy decisions in the hands of foreign agents and distributors.
Purpose
The purpose with this thesis is to investigate how the export and marketing strategies have been developed and implemented by suc-cessful Swedish export companies.
Method
Winners of the Export-Hermes Prize and Stora Exportpriset have been used as a sample of successful export companies. Qualitative semi-structured interviews with four of them were conducted to col-lect the empirical data.
Conclusion
The export companies in this study showed great differences con-cerning their original export ambitions, the methods they used to se-lect foreign markets, the modes that they used to enter new markets and the pace in which the international expansions were carried out. There were however strong similarities between the successful ex-port companies in other areas. All four companies had owners and top management who had been, and in most cases still were, highly involved and driving forces in the export activities. The companies also shared a belief in working with clear goals and having a strict control over subsidiaries and intermediaries. The authors are of the opinion that this control and monitoring are crucial for the success of the implementation of the export and marketing strategies.

Full textA literatura de sustentabilidade reconhece a necessidade de as empresas adaptarem as suas práticas e procedimentos na esfera ambiental, de forma a responder às tensões que se têm verificado um pouco por todo o mundo. A enorme pressão no que toca a normas e procedimentos ambientais limita as operações das empresas, o que as estimula na adoção de práticas verdes e consequentemente na adoção de recursos e capacidades ambientais. Neste sentido, no que diz respeito a eco-friendly export marketing strategy, a literatura refere que as empresas que exportam se tornam mais rapidamente amigas do ambiente do que as que atuam apenas em mercados nacionais, devido às diferentes exigências a nível ambiental dos países importadores. O presente estudo pretende investigar a relação entre a market-oriented environmental sustainability e os green export-related resources e capabilities. Avaliar o impacto que estes recursos e capacidades têm na eco-friendly export marketing strategy, assim como o efeito desta estratégia no desempenho das exportações é também um dos objetivos do presente estudo. Para testar o modelo conceptual foram utilizados dados correspondentes a 241 respostas a um questionário obtido através de empresas exportadoras portuguesas de manufatura. Os resultados obtidos, revelam uma influência positiva da market-oriented environmental sustainability sobre os green export-related resources e capabilities. As green export-related capabilities afetam positivamente a eco-friendly export marketing strategy, sendo que os green export-related resources não têm um efeito direto significativo sobre esta. A eco-friendly export marketing strategy tem uma influência positiva no export performance.
The sustainability literature recognizes the need for companies to adapt their practices and procedures in the environmental sphere, in order to respond to the tensions that have been felt all over the world. The enormous pressure on environmental standards and procedures limits the operations of companies, which accelerates them in the adoption of green practices and consequently in the adoption of environmental resources and capabilities. In this sense, with regard to eco-friendly export marketing strategy, the literature indicates that the companies that export become more environmentally friendly than those that operate only in national markets, due to the different environmental requirements of importing countries. The present study aims to investigate a relation of environmental sustainability oriented to the market under the green export resources and the export-related capabilities related to the export, and the impact that these resources and capabilities will have on the Eco-friendly export marketing strategy. The proposed conceptual model also evaluates the influence of the eco-friendly export marketing strategy on the companies export performance. To test the conceptual model, was used data corresponding to 241 responses to a questionnaire obtained by Portuguese exporting manufacturing companies. The results reveal a positive influence of market-oriented environmental sustainability about the features and capabilities dedicated to export. Capabilities positively affect the eco-friendly export marketing strategy, and resources do not have a significant direct effect on it. Eco-Friendly export marketing strategy has a positive influence on export performance.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: After the deregulation of the South African deciduous fruit industry in 1997 an unregulated grape marketing environment replaced the single channel marketing system. Many new South African grape exporters were now involved in an uncoordinated and uncooperative marketing environment. Each marketing organisation implemented their own marketing plans resulting in an increase in competition among South African suppliers. The South African grape supplies originate from various production areas, each with their unique characteristics and qualities, making it a very competitive environment. South African grapes also share the various markets with other competing Southern Hemisphere grape suppliers. This level of competition makes it very important for the South African grape industry to have a uniform marketing strategy. To achieve a uniform industry marketing strategy the industry has to develop a common vision - to be the preferred table grape supplier in our target markets - that forms the basis of developing a generic South African table grape marketing strategy. A single vision gives the competitive export companies a common marketing objective. This study includes recommendations to industry stakeholders that will enable them to formulate their own marketing strategy, all within the guidelines of the common vision that is adjusted to the specific needs of their respective target markets.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Na die deregulering van die Suid-Afrikaanse sagtevrugtebedryf in 1997 het 'n ongereguleerde bemarkingsomgewing die enkelkanaalbemarking vervang. Verskeie nuwe Suid-Afrikaanse tafeldruifuitvoerders was nou betrokke by 'n ongekoërdineerde bemarkingsomgewing waar daar geen samewerking tussen uitvoerders was nie. Elke bemarkingsagent het sy eie bemarkingsplan gevolg wat gelei het tot 'n toename in kompetisie tussen Suid-Afrikaanse produsente. Die Suid-Afrikaanse tafeldruiwe word in verskillende produksieareas geoes, elk met hul unieke eienskappe en kwaliteite. Dit maak dit 'n baie kompeterende omgewing. Die Suid-Afrikaanse druiwe kompeteer ook in die mark met ander Suidelike Halfrond druiwe produsente. Met so 'n hoë vlak van kompetisie, is dit belangrik dat die Suid- Afrikaanse industrie 'n eenvormige bemarkingstrategie het. Om 'n eenvormige bemarkingstrategie vir die industrie te formuleer, moet die industrie visie - om die voorkeurverskaffer van tafeldruiwe in ons teikenmarkte te wees - die basis vorm vir die formulering van 'n generiese bemarkingstrategie vir Suid-Afrikaanse tafeldruiwe. 'n Eenvormige visie bied vir die kompeterende bemarkingsagente 'n gemene doelwit. Hierdie werkstuk sluit aanbevelings in wat vir rolspelers leiding sal gee om hul eie bemarkingstrategie te formuleer wat die doelwitte van 'n eenvormige visie onderskryf, maar nog steeds die behoeftes van die onderskeie teikenmarkte aanspreek.

Export activities are a crucial area of international business but the drivers of superior export performance are not yet well understood. In this study, employing a sample of 52 Portuguese firms, we examine what are the distinctive resources and capabilities associated to superior export performance through the establishment of sustainable competitive advantages. Resource-based view supports the development of explicit hypothesis. Different combinations of export-related resources and capabilities are identified as source of cost, product and service-type advantages and how do these advantages impact economic, strategic and relational dimensions of export performance. The findings of this study have important implications for theory, managers and policymakers. Limitations of the study are considered, and future research directions are identified.

Full textENGLISH ABSTRACT: The aim of this study is to define export performance and to identify factors which influence or improve export performance. There is a considerable lack of coherence among scholars on what export performance is; from whose viewpoint to measure it, namely the government, the company, the product or the specific market exported to and the time frame. A variety of factors was found to influence export performance positively and these are tested on a Cape Town based pumpkin exporter. It was concluded that net profit is the only consistently valid measure of export performance .. To achieve success in exports require the expertise of overseas distributors and agents as well as a world-oriented approach where delivery and services is important. When exporting a perishable agricultural product it is important to compete on superior quality and to concentrate on a few major markets. Success in any export venture depends primarily on top-management commitment, management being prepared to endure setbacks in order to become successful and channelling its attitude towards risk-taking into positively influencing export performarice.
AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: Die doel van hierdie studie is om uitvoerprestasie te meet en die faktore wat uitvoerprestasie bepaal, te identifiseer. Daar is teenstrydigheid tussen navorsers oor presies wat uitvoerprestasie is, asook die uitgangspunt vanwaar dit gemeet word, naamlik die regering, die maatskappy, die produk, die spesifieke mark waarheen uitgevoer word en die tydraam. 'n Verskeidenheid faktore is geïdentifiseer wat uitvoerprestasie positief beïnvloed en dit word getoets op 'n Kaapstadse pampoenuitvoerder. Daar is gevind dat nettowins die enigste betroubare en geldige maatstaf is om uitvoerprestasie te meet. Die gebruik van oorsese verspreiders en agente, asook 'n wêreld-georiënteerde benadering van lewering en diens is belangrik vir suksesvolle uitvoere. Wanneer 'n bederfbare landbouproduk uitgevoer word, is dit belangrik om mee te ding op grond van voortreflike diens en deur te konsentreer op 'n paar hoofmarkte. Sukses in enige uitvoerprojek hang hoofsaaklik af van die toewyding van topbestuur, of bestuur bereid is om terugslae te verduur ten einde suksesvol te raak en deurdat bestuur sy benadering jeens risiko in die regte rigting kanaliseer ten einde uitvoere positief te beïnvloed.

Full textAs a result of the growing demand for imported foods in China, today there are some Swedish food companies who are exporting food to China. The growing economy in China has created new consumer needs and thus the opportunity for foreign companies to sell their domestic product to the country. According an American report, the current economic growth in China has contributed to a growing middle class, which demands for safer and more natural quality products. Chinese people have, in connection to this, become more eager to buy foreign food. This is due to a number of previous food scares, which have caused huge consequences among the population. Thus, there is an unsaturated market for foreign food companies to cover in China, which could also be a motive for Swedish food companies to enter this market. According to recent figures from the Swedish Embassy in Beijing, Sweden loses more than 1.3 billion in food exports to China every year. In connection to a project where four Swedish food companies were given the opportunity to launch their products at a large Chinese retailer, we have chosen to highlight their market entry in China. China is currently a difficult market to penetrate, which has also contributed to mixed experiences of the four Swedish companies. In this paper, we intend to identify marketing strategies that can overcome any communication barriers that Swedish food companies might face in China. In this paper we have identified different values, which we believe that Swedish companies can exploit. Other things we have found during our research are communication barriers to avoid when entering the market. At last, we have also found some factors which are required when going from contact to relation in a business process.
