  • The World of Renova
    A Work Project, presented as part of the requirements for the Award of a Master Degree in International Management from Nova School of Business and Economics The world of Renova - Internationalization Plan to India - Ana Vieira – 22094 Catarina Dolleman – 22406 Catarina Leitão – 27290 Rita Craveiro – 22181 A Group Project carried out on the Export and Internationalization Field Lab with respect to the company Renova, under the supervision of Professor Pedro Pereira Gonçalves and Professor Pedro Teixeira Santos January 2017 Abstract This paper studies the viability of Renova’s internationalization to India. Its initial chapters include an analysis of the country, the Tissue & Hygiene industry and the company, as well as a section dedicated to the entry mode, in which an entry mode framework was created. Based on this tool, it was discovered that Renova should enter in India by direct export. Moreover, from the chapter on marketing strategy it was concluded that Renova should first export toilet paper, facial tissues, and napkins from its Red Label line, pursuing a premium positioning in the market. The products should be distributed first in Mumbai, through More’s retail chain and the wholesalers Metro and Walmart. Finally, despite India’s inherent risks and the industry’s challenges, a financial analysis suggests that this internationalization is viable (NPV = 215.565,66€) and worth to be followed. Key words: Internationalization Process, Entry Mode, Differentiation, Distribution 1 Acknowledgements “Coming together is a beginning. Keeping together is progress.

  • Chapter 6. the Internationalisation of Portuguese Manufacturing Firms
    CHAPTER 6. THE INTERNATIONALISATION OF PORTUGUESE MANUFACTURING FIRMS 6.1. INTRODUCTION The recent evolution of outward FDI flows was discussed in chapter 4. The picture presented was one of a very recent phenomenon. Only in the 1990s, and in particular in the second half, Portuguese investment abroad became relevant. But growth has been exponential and the enthusiasm was transmitted to the Portuguese authorities which made the internationalisation of domestically owned firms a political objective. It is interesting that these transformations happened at a time when foreign firms seem to be less inclined to invest in Portugal (see chapter 4). The result was a peculiar behaviour of the Portuguese IDP (section 4.6). It emulates the pattern of evolution of the most developed countries, suggesting that Portugal is joining the group of latecomers in foreign investment (together with Austria, Spain, and others). However, the Portuguese IDP conceals a loss of competitiveness in terms of the country’s ability to attract foreign investment (see chapter 5). In this context, the investigation of the internationalisation of the Portuguese firms may 141 yield important information. It is important, for example, to identify whether the growth of outward FDI results from a new strength of national firms or it represents “escape investment”, a response to an hypothetical reduced attractiveness of the domestic location. The internationalisation process of the new Portuguese MNCs may also be important for international business theory. Foreign investors from newly industrialised countries like Portugal can be expected to be in many respects distinct from those from more developed nations. First, they are smaller than the long established MNCs they will compete with.
