Exporting can no longer be considered as just selling goods from one country
into another. Rather, it is a:
“Dynamic enterprise whereby the export company ensures the articles it exports
reach the customer in a condition to fully satisfy the needs of the latter in
the expectation of getting repeat business.”
This dynamic nature means that the company wishing to export cannot be satisfied
with just passively placing its stocks or certain amounts of products in foreign
markets.
Starting the Export Activity. There are many ways a company may choose to enter
the international market. Participating in an international trade fair held in
one’s own country is a common enough starting point.
At these fairs, it is the foreign visitors who come to investigate our products
rather than we approaching them. This is known as passive exporting.
For certain firms, they may have started at the outset as international firms in
the sense that their mission is to be involved in international business
activities. For many others, however they may have begun as domestic firms
concentrating on their own domestic markets before shifting or expanding the
focus to also cover international markets. It is thus useful to investigate the
stages of internationalization.Globalization - Master in Foreign Trade and International Marketing
