Marketing Ethics; Emerging Markets. The Case Study

Determining this could be difficult and time consuming. It is nonetheless a necessary step towards successful and sustainable market entry. A culture whose values are, for example, alienated by a marketing campaign is likely to be alienated and will not deliver a sustainable customer base for the success of the company. Ultimately, what the article focuses on, is that success in the long-term depends upon a company's ability to enter the market in a way that is both environmentally sustainable and socially ethical.

Furthermore, market confidence is vital to maintain the sustainability of the company on both the environmental and economic levels.
