Summary Introduction
Case summary:
Country I has most deadly roads in the world. Country I does not provide the standard safety features in the entry-level cars, despite many companies offer safety features like antilock brakes and air bags. The companies argue that the customers are not affordable to make the safety features because of the additional costs. So, some companies offer standard safety features; some provide at optional and some do not provide at all because of price competitiveness.

The brand consultancy Interbrand publishes an annual list of the Best Global Brands, which shows that the worth of a brand can be much greater than a company's physical assets. For example, in the early 2000s, the value of the top ranked brand, Coca-Cola, was calculated at over $70 billion. Consequently, a company's market value (the combined price of all its shares) can be much greater than its book value - the recorded value of its tangible assets such as buildings and machinery. Brand value largely comes from customer loyalty: the existence of customers who will continue to buy the products.
Many Multi-national Corporations (MNCs) have made significant cultural blunders when attempting to introduce or debut products in foreign or overseas markets.
Explain the term "multi-cultural marketing" and how a multi-national corporation such as Pepsi Cola or KFC, could utilize this strategy to avoid marketing blunders when introducing new products to your country (use examples to support your answer).

Due to lack of clean water and due to illiteracy of the mothers in poor countries, infant formula was mixed with water which was not clean and the babies who consumed the formula had to go through serious health issues, which sometimes caused even death. It was reported that, Nestle knew the illiteracy and the lack of clean water in African countries, yet, Nestle did not alarm it, as it might minimize their market and loss of profits (Wijesinghe, 2018).

- former worldwide leader in video rentals found themselves on the wrong side of public opinion thanks to a failure to innovate. Blockbuster was once known throughout the world as a leader in home movie and video game rentals. Before the digital age, their products were the Netflix of the day. The problem? They refused to innovate. Sensing changes in the market — including by a start-up known as Netflix — Blockbuster began to push for a more in-demand market, creating programmes that allowed people to get videos delivered directly to their homes. However, it wasn’t enough: The company failed to properly prepare for the rise of the digital age and never created a product like that of Netflix that streamed movies directly to people’s internet devices.
