Marketing ACROSS CULTURES:
A case study of IKEA Shanghai
Abstract
The past century saw rapid growth of multinational companies around the globe.Along with the tide of globalization, these companies are 代写留学生论文compelled to deal withcustomers cultivated in different cultures. China, boosting a remarkable economicgrowth in the past two decades, stands out under the spotlight of internationalbusiness. Being amazed by the huge business potential posed by a population of 1.3billion, many multinational companies have joined the competition to attract Chinese
customers. There have been losers and winners. IKEA is now on the right track.IKEA entered the Chinese market in 1998 by first opening a shop in Shanghai,the financial centre of the country and are now ready to expand further. The thesispresents a case study of IKEA Shanghai’s marketing performances from a culturalperspective, following the model of the marketing mix (the 4Ps). The findings conveyan important message in terms of international marketing—the company must think
globally and act locally in hope of building long-term customer relationships andcapturing customer value. In marketing decisions, culture does not hold an ultimatestatus but still calls for due attention as much as other factors, such as the marketingenvironment and the company’s strategic plan.
