Effects of partitioned country image in the context of brand image and familiarity: a categorization theory perspective
Article Abstract:
The emergence of alliances among multinational companies has resulted in the manufacture of products outside the supposed country of origin. Many famous brand names are usually associated with their countries of origin, which adds to the marketability of the product. However, consumer attitudes towards new brands are changing, due to the emergence of binational products. Brand familiarity and brand image are equally affected by this partitioning of country image.
