  • Strategic Management at Mormaii - the Brazilian Surf Industry Leader
    BBR Special Issues Vitória-ES, 2017 p. 110-129 ISSN 1808-2386 DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.15728/edicaoesp.2017.6 Strategic Management at Mormaii - the Brazilian Surf Industry Leader Marcos Abilio Bosquetti† Federal University of Santa Catarina - UFSC Gabriela Gonçalves Silveira FiatesΩ Federal University of Santa Catarina - UFSC Jess Ponting¥ San Diego State University ABSTRACT The sport of surfing has been growing rapidly in popularity worldwide and Brazil is among the countries with the largest surfing population, behind the United States and Australia, however, multinational surf companies are rushing in emerging markets like Brazil to find new opportunities for growth. This paper intends to provide insights on how local companies in these markets can overcome and even take advantage of differences with global competitors by re-thinking their core competencies and business models. Therefore, empirical research applying qualitative case study methodology was developed to investigate the role of strategy in the surf industry - a fairly unexplored research topic. Semi-structured in-depth interviews with the founder and CEO and the executive directors at the Brazilian surf industry leader - Mormaii, were conducted to understand how the 4-decade local company found its way to success. Although the theories: RBV, Core Competencies, and Dynamic Capabilities complement each other and help to explain firms’ performance and strategic choices, in empirical studies strategy has been analyzed only by one or another theory. Therefore, the simultaneous use of these three theories intended to fill this gap in the literature and bring more consistency to the discussion of this case study. As a result, this empirical study illustrates the RBV perspective, which stems from the principle that the source of firms’ competitive advantage lies in their internal resources and capabilities, rather than simply evaluating environmental opportunities and threats in conducting business.
