Topic and Title of the Presentation:

Comparison of Marketing Practices and Procedures in the Western, Asian and Islamic Marketplaces and their Respective Cultural Environments.

Summary, Scope and Objectives:

In this Presentation, TRI CK USA will analyze and compare the Western, Asian and Islamic marketing and business strategies. 

Drawing on our research into the role of global marketing, business and trade in formulating strategy for U.S., European and Asian companies, governmental agencies, academic institutions and professional services firms, TRI CK USA will address the failure and success in the definition, the design and the execution of global marketing strategies in regards to the local particularities within the regions we selected as representative of the Western, Asian and Islamic business practices and cultural characteristics.

 TRI CK USA will also design models to compensate the lack of synergistic relationship between marketing and business strategies at the level of the adaptation and adjustment of the Market and Customer segments in relation to the Customer Lifetime Value, Customer Retention and Customer Relationship Management. 

TRI CK USA will then provide a series of global recommendations focused on the localization and the customization of product issues, communication, organization structure, distribution, brand management and leadership to help international marketing “Gurus” to lead and to adopt strategy processes that can take in consideration the various local believes and practices.

In this presentation, TRI CK USA focuses on the gathering business information and indications, analyzing and processing the related data in business intelligence that can serve as inputs and vectors to the definition of strategies and feasibility studies or just case-study analysis.

Subsequently, my presentation is more than a show of PowerPoint slides, it is intended to be a powerful analytical tools, first-sight instruments and solid ressources made of practical and workable solutions that recommend and generate efficient environment scan, productive business intelligence and deep insight to be used in face fundamental challenges and transform international business opportunities and requirements into global success.


Pierre Loti dans son salon marocain à Rocherfort, 1890-1920

 Cutting the Ribbon for Inauguration with Introductory Notes:

The multinational and the global corporations have differentiated approaches and strategies seeking expansion in foreign countries and international market. The multinational corporations define their international strategies for pre-selected sets and number of countries  with customized and adapted products and services in accordance to the local cultural and business conditions.

In today’s globalized economy, corporations operate with a certain level of assertiveness and consistency. They consider the emergence of global markets as a standardized consumer demand that leaves no room for customization of the product or the service. This is mainly because of the rise of technological and standardized consumer products that are easier to produce and distribute at a global level.

However, while applications and other digital services can be customized to some extent, the same is not applicable for physical products. This makes it challenging for corporations to cater to individual preferences and demands of consumers in different markets.

Despite this, globalization is encouraged as it offers real competitive advantages for global corporations in terms of economies of scale in production, logistics and distribution, marketing, and inventory control and quality management.

As a result, global corporations can produce goods at a lower cost and distribute them more efficiently to consumers worldwide.


McDonald’s Tastes and Shapes

Geographic Segmentation

The global fast-food giant, has successfully adapted its menu and business strategies to diverse cultures around the world. Let’s delve into how McDonald’s approaches local culture in Africa and beyond:

Adaptation and Innovation:

McDonald’s strategic approach supports cultural diversity

By adjusting their offerings to local markets, they achieve a wider reach than their competitors12.

In Africa, this means incorporating flavors and ingredients that resonate with local tastes. For example:

Plantain-based sides in some African countries, reflecting local preferences.

  • McAloo Tikki in India, a vegetarian burger with spiced potato patty.
  • McChop in South Africa, featuring a grilled or fried chicken patty.

Respecting Cultural Differences:

McDonald’s adheres to each country’s policies and customs. They collaborate with local suppliers and source ingredients locally.

They celebrate cultural events through limited-time menu items. For instance, during Ramadan, they offer special meals in Muslim-majority countries.

By respecting cultural nuances, McDonald’s fosters goodwill and loyalty among diverse communities.

In summary, McDonald’s success lies in its ability to glocalize—combining global standards with local adaptation. 

McArabia in the Middle East, a sandwich with grilled chicken or beef.

Within such considerations, TRI CK USA’s presentation is much more than a show of PowerPoint slides, it is intended to be a powerful analytical tools, first-sight instruments and solid ressources made of practical and workable solutions that recommend and generate efficient environment scan, productive business intelligence and deep insight to be used in face fundamental challenges and transform international business opportunities and requirements into global success.

New Disruption of Trade From Red Sea and Black Sea to Panama Canal

From the Red and Black Social Conflict of Stendhal to the Red and Black Seas of Conflicts of Ideologies and Power Disputes

International Trade Navigating in Trouble Waters and Moody Conflictual Swing.

Once more International Trade since the First World War International Competition, International Rivalries, International Geopolitical Interests, and International National Interests Can become the Justification for Invasion and Punitive Expeditions that can be also the Sparks that Can Link All the Ingredients of these Factors of Dissensions and Divisions in One Big Conflagration of Regional Zones of Tensions and Conflicts that can be colliding with each other with time, pretexts and intensity to became War of Civilizations and Institutions.

In 2023, continued geopolitical tensions, ongoing regional conflicts, and supply chain uncertainty had a tangible impact on international trade. 

Disruptions in the Black Sea and Panama and Suez Canals

The Suez Canal, a critical waterway connecting the Mediterranean Sea to the Red Sea, handled approximately 12% to 15% of global trade in 2023. UNCTAD estimates that the trade volume going through the Suez Canal decreased by 42% over the last two months.

At this juncture of troubling waters and muddy space, the Middle East can become the driving force behind the regional configuration and conglomeration of the Fractional Pieces for Peace or the pits of fire to spread over and become the Breaker of the International Market as Inherited from the Bretton – Woods Accords and the related establishment of the Institutional framing organizations as the Channels and the Conditioning structures for the exchange between the adhering nations.

What are the other avenues or road maps that will preserve the already-acquired privileges and advantages?

At the level of entreprises and compagnies, there is an approach that can reduce this exposure and risks that are conveyed by the clashes of civilizations and cultures of past history.

A questioning of the permissive conditions for the continuation of methods and forms of commercial exchanges can lead to the main point of dispute among advanced and less advanced economies. This question is centered on the valorization of countries as contributors in the international trade which are schematically divided between 3 large categories:

  • – The Producers of Natural Resources,
  • – The Manufacturers of Consumer Products,
  • – The Investors and the Owners of High Technologies.
  • – The Emerging Group of Countries that have Dual Form of Integration in the International Trade

Along with the added value of their manufactured products, they are countries that are hostage to the production of raw materials and natural resources without means of processing or in many cases without a knowledge of their process transformation and even control of the international circulation and exchange of their mining and natural resources.

A never concluded debate is also at the level of the formation and convertibility of value in its realization as added which since Ricardo and Marx debate has not yet been clearly defined, established in its applications and definitions at the level of the countries in progress of development characterized by economies that have not reached a high level of capitalization and reproduction of capital as national investment without recourse to international borrowing.

This shortfall remains in our time one of the fundamental pillars in the questioning of international trade clauses deeply planted by Western leading countries through all forms of regulation, declaration, conduction and monetization including the countries of the South can only adopt and accept forms of relationships in which they will have to increase their contributions without receiving the fair return and income.

Some challenges that are currently affecting global trade include:

  • – The U.S.-China trade war
  • – The Taiwan Strait crisis
  • – The East China Sea dispute
  • – The South China Sea dispute
  • – Russia’s invasion of Ukraine
  • – The Middle East conflict, Gaza, Syria, Lebanon, Irak, Saudi Arabia, Yemen, Sudan
  • – Africa: Military Coups, CEDEAO Crisis, the Withdrawal of Sahel Countries, Ethiopia and Tigray, Mozambique, Democratic Republic of Congo, Central African Republic, Libya
  • – Investment, Trade and Geostrategic Rivalry between USA, European Union, Russia, China and Turkey in Africa
  • – Recent attacks on ships in the Red Sea by the Houthis, Response of the U.S. and U.K. with threats to Iran, considered as the Backers of the Houthis of Yemen
  • – Geopolitical tensions affecting shipping in the Black Sea 

Geopolitical risks are the potential political, economic, military, and social risks that can emerge from a nation’s involvement in international affairs. They typically emerge whenever there is a major shift in power, a conflict, or a crisis. 

Other challenges that are affecting trade include:

  • The strategic competition between the US and China
  • The UK’s departure from the European Union
  • Ongoing supply chain disruptions
  • Climate disasters
  • Political actions 

Governments like Companies pursue their interests and develop relations around such principle that continuously need to be consolidated and reaffirmed as the priority for international interactions and regional collaborations. Political risk management is one of the major instrument to conduct and have in place to elevate the level of conscience and establish new forms of communications and responses with the major influencing elements and causes of the eruption and spread of detrimental consequences resulting from political events on a national or global scale, such as an armed conflict, constitutional referendum, election, or major policy developments. Changes in legislation or policies can also present a political risk for an organization.

Here are some ways to reduce political conflict affecting international trade:

  • Negotiate: Diplomatic negotiations are a key way to resolve conflicts and prevent wars.
  • Mediate: Mediation is a peaceful way to manage conflicts. It offers many advantages, and has been studied by scholars, practitioners, and students of political science, psychology, business management, and law.
  • Develop conflict resolution skills: These include mediation, dialogue facilitation, and consensus-building.
  • Set rules: Settling differences by talking and agreeing on rules is vital for reducing tension.
  • Use the WTO: Members can request the establishment of a panel to settle disputes if negotiations are not possible. The panel will issue a report, which can subsequently be appealed before the WTO’s Appellate Body on questions of law.
  • Promote Reformed and Fair Free Trade: Free trade between countries could reduce international conflict because trade forges connections between nations and gives each country an incentive to avoid war with its trading partners. 

Basically many of these approaches had reach their limit in setting a path of collaboration and share of the same views on the resolution and anticipation of new antagonisms.

Red Sea, Black Sea and Panama Canal: UNCTAD raises alarm on global trade disruptions | UNCTAD

The UN’s trade and development body, UNCTAD, has raised profound concerns over escalating disruptions to global

According to a February 2024 article, the current challenges highlight the vulnerability of trade to geopolitical tensions and climate-related challenges. The article also states that collective efforts are needed to find sustainable solutions, especially for countries that are more vulnerable to these shocks. … Read more

Emerging Markets Growth

The top emerging countries will vary from list to list, but a few of the most commonly recognized “emerging nations” are listed below. 


  • BRIC countries
  • Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa. 
  • These countries are known as the BRIC nations, an association formed in 2009 by the leaders of these countries to improve their political relationships and trade. 
  • BrazilRussiaIndia and China. These countries are currently considered the top four emerging markets.

But while the emerging market spotlight has long been focused on the BRIC nations of Brazil, Russia, India, and China, the report, entitled Reaching the emerging middle-classes beyond BRIC, notes that attention is turning to smaller markets. The shift is being driven by the rates of faster economic and demographic growth in many of those markets – factors that are together fueling growth in consumer spending, including highly valued spending areas such as education.

Market Size: Aggregated purchasing power and number of potential clients within the relevant market segments;

Market Accessibility: General ease of doing business, regulation, transparency, communication, and infrastructure;

Market Match: Overlap between needs and preferences in the market and products and services provided by marker suppliers.

  • CIVETS countries or Colombia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Turkey and South Africa. These countries are predicted by some to be among the next emerging markets to quickly rise in economic prominence
Morocco
Philippines
Poland
Chile
Czech Republic
Hungary
South Korea
Taiwan
Thailand
Indonesia
Malaysia
Mexico

Other emerging markets include: 

CIVETS countries: Colombia, Indonesia, Vietnam, Egypt, Turkey, and South Africa

E7 countries: Brazil, China, India, Indonesia, Mexico, Russia, and Turkey

Group of Five (G5): Brazil, China, India, Mexico, and South Africa

World Economics has combined 24 countries to represent the Emerging Markets. Overall these countries account for 50% of Global GDP and 68.5% of global GDP growth in the past 10 years (2013-2023).

Next year, Emerging Market Growth growth is expected to decelerate to 3.6% / to a slightly below-trend 3.8% in 2024 on average from around 4% this year. Importantly, the growth premium in favour of Emerging Markets over Developed Markets is projected to continue widening. Asia is set to register the strongest contribution to world GDP once again. Nov 23, 2023

Compared to their developed market peers, many emerging market companies have the potential to increase earnings at a faster rate due to increasing living standards in their domestic markets and rising demand from the rest of the world. Nov 15, 2023

The Next Eleven (or N-11) are eleven countries—Bangladesh, Egypt, Indonesia, Iran, Mexico, Nigeria, Pakistan, Philippines, South Korea, Turkey, and Vietnam— identified by Goldman Sachs investment bank as having a high potential of becoming the world’s largest economies in the 21st century along with the BRICs.

Looking beyond China, we explore below the three rising emerging market countries where we see particularly compelling investment opportunities. India, Brazil, and Saudi Arabia are leaders in their respective regions, all benefiting from economic reforms and digitization initiatives.


Saudi Arabia’s Trade Surplus: October 2013

December 28, 2023 Saudi Arabia is one of the top 20 export and import markets in the world. In 2022, the US imported roughly 456,000 barrels of crude oil per day from Saudi Arabia. China is Saudi Arabia’s largest trading partner and the world’s largest buyer of crude oil.  According to the Indonesian Trade Promotion Center, Saudi … Continue reading Saudi Arabia’s Trade Surplus: October 2013

Press Release Near

In many ways, the case is clear. Nearshoring or onshoring can contribute to risk-resistant supply chains and lead to faster time-to-market, more effective planning cycles, and greater flexibility in response to disruption. Proximate sourcing can enable greater control and more frequent site visits, fewer cultural barriers, and better communication. Reductions in logistics costs and lead times can also bolster the balance sheet by freeing up working capital that is tied up in cash outlays to suppliers and inventory in transit. 

Colliers International releases a new research report on the latest trends for the manufacturing industry in Asia, Europe and the Americas

Greater focus on automation and digital technology in manufacturing globally is helping to shift workforce needs from low-cost to highly-skilled. This trend is apparent across Europe, and globally, according to a report released by Colliers International. The report discusses multiple pressures which global manufacturing and supply chains are confronting.

“To remain competitive in a global context and future-proof their manufacturing sector, advanced economies are embracing the Fourth Industrial Revolution and pioneering new forms of smart manufacturing whereby production combines the “Internet of Things” and digital technology to increase productivity, efficiencies and flexibility. Germany for example pursues this objective through its “Industrie 4.0” programme”. Commented Tim Davies, Managing Director, Head of Industrial & Logistics Practise Group for Colliers EMEA.

While this is putting greater emphasis on the quality rather than the quantity of the workforce in advanced economies, low-cost manufacturers remain an important part of the global manufacturing jigsaw. They are seeing their operations shift into less advanced economies, where labour costs are low and supply is more plentiful.

Karel Stransky, Director, EMEA Corporate Solutions: “Europe ultimately needs additional workers to avoid significant labour shortages. EU states in the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) are anticipating population declines of approximately 10% by 2050, while the EU dependency ratio is expected to double, a measure reflecting the pressure on the productive population. Rural areas will be the most affected due to the continuing urbanisation trend. This begs a question over the sustainability of local labour pools. Going forward, the countries that will emerge as manufacturing winners will be those who continue to create innovative technologies in the most cost-effective manner, combined with competitive, yet affordable, wages.”

CEE has been one of the main beneficiaries of new productive investment in Europe in the last few decades. This has been primarily focused on a group of so-called Tier 1 countries including the Czech Republic, Poland, Slovakia and Hungary. The Czech Republic has one of the highest stocks of manufacturing FDI (Foreign Direct Investment) per capita within CEE. This investment has put local labour markets under pressure.

The Czech unemployment rate has fallen from a post crisis peak of 7.3% in 2010 to 5.1% in 2015 and is expected to fall to just above 4% by the end of 2016, the lowest level in Europe. In Poland, another regional heavyweight, the unemployment rate is predicted to fall to an all-time low of 6.2% by the end of the year.

Meanwhile, gross average manufacturing wages have increased by nearly 50% in the Czech Republic, 57% in Slovakia, 68% in Poland and 73% in Hungary in the space of less than 10 years (2005 to 2014).

These cyclical and structural forces are slowly redrawing the manufacturing landscape across the CEE region as we know it, and are prompting some corporates to consider alternative territories to established manufacturing hot spots.

The report – ”Global Manufacturing Shifts: an EMEA Perspective. Production in the post-BRICs era” cites several significant factors and trends as catalysts for redrawing the manufacturing landscape:

  • Rising labour costs and labour shortages in global manufacturing hot spots are redefining the map of global manufacturing, driving growth into the next group of low cost countries such as South Eastern Europe, Turkey and Morocco.
  • Labour costs are far from being the only determining factor for locating a site or plant or in product-sourcing decisions. The need to improve speed to market and the growing demand for customised product means proximity to final consumers is increasingly important. As a result, regions/countries close to major consumer blocks that offer a good balance between cost/risk are those best placed to benefit from this trend. These include the previously mentioned countries plus South East Asia and Mexico.
  • In line with Industry 4.0, Western European supply chains are set to become increasingly automated, with robot-operated factories the norm. Port operator APM Terminals, for example, recently announced the opening of the world’s first fully-automated container in Rotterdam Port. Amazon has cut its operating expenses by about 20% by using its Kiva robots, and plans to roll out this technology more extensively across Europe and Asia.
  • Automation and technology may also enable the return of some traditionally labour intensive productions, from farther afield, as they seek to maximize speed to market. While this will generate new real estate requirements, the overall impact on job markets is likely to be more muted and unevenly felt across skills/qualifications levels, with the low-skilled workforce set to be most impacted.
  • In CEE, tier 1 markets like Poland and the Czech Republic have become more expensive and increasingly saturated in their primary manufacturing locations. This is likely to pave the way to greater manufacturing investment, particularly by cost-sensitive industries, into “off-the beaten track” regions within these countries or deeper into South Eastern Europe and the Balkans region. Labour cost will be a key driver, with current infrastructure development across the region helping de-risk investment. EU enlargement on other hand seems to have lost momentum but remains important in the mid-long term.
  • Mediterranean countries like Turkey and Morocco are likely to capture some investment thanks to their large, young and educated workforce and their location at the crossroads of Europe and other emerging regions like Africa and the Middle East. Turkey in particular is the Western’ terminal of China’s Silk Road initiative, aimed at strengthening trade between the Far East and Europe and support China’s outward investment.

TotalEnergies and Nigeria Energy Plans

TotalEnergies has announced plans to invest up to $6 billion in Nigeria, the largest oil producer in Africa. 

In December 2023, French TotalEnergies announced plans to invest $6bn (€5.47bn) over multiple years in gas production and deep-water projects.  This investment will boost its oil and gas operations in Nigeria and is aligned with the trend among international oil companies (IOCs) that are shifting their focus from onshore to offshore operations in Nigeria.

However, there have been challenges in retaining the oil major’s interest in offshore assets in Nigeria, which have been susceptible to insecurity and vandalism. Nigeria’s oil and gas infrastructure, including pipelines, has faced issues related to insecurity and maintenance. Mele Kyari, the group managing director of NNPC Limited, mentioned to senators in November 2023 that over 5,000 kilometers of pipelines in Nigeria are not operational. For example, the pipeline from Warri to Benin has been inactive for the past 22 years.

Equinor, the Norwegian state-owned international energy company, recently sold its stake in the Chevron-operated Agbami field, which is one of Nigeria’s largest deep-water oilfields. The buyer was Chappal Energies, a local rival, and this transaction reflects the broader trend of international oil companies (IOCs), such as ExxonMobil and Shell, either exiting or planning to exit certain operations in Nigeria.

Nigeria has seen a continual drop to a multi-decade low of below 1 million barrels per day in 2022 due to challenges such as oil theft, vandalism, and aging infrastructure. Nigeria is actively working to overcome these obstacles and boost production levels. All these conditions have resulted in the loss of revenues at a time when international demand such as the European need to find substitute suppliers for Russian oil and gas and China and India’s increased reliance on fossil energy.

Nigeria plays a significant role in TotalEnergies’ global output, contributing 8 to 10 percent of the company’s total production. Additionally, Nigeria accounts for more than 18 percent of TotalEnergies’ overall investments.
