interplay of internal and external factors to meet the objectives of the export

mission

altogether-The branding strategy must always recognise and accommodate
the competition present in that country.

strategy to other American importers of camu camu?
-Camu camu needs to be adapted to the specific culture of the target market

Promote camu camu in North American market as a health beneficial product
such as a health juice or dietary supplement.

Opportunities and risks when entering a new market.
Two strategies identifies
-

Standaisation- globe consumer culture positioning, having one brand


and product image that uses symbols (logos, colors, labelling, brand
image) that consumers all across the world can recognise.
Adaptation foreign consumer culture positioning, associates the brand
with a foreign culture, which would mean that peru would have to
adapt its strategy for every different market as they have different
ideas of that they foreign culture means and would have to adapt to
the cultural differences through their advertising of the product.
