Article Abstract:
Companies developing branded products on an international basis should first try to determine the core essence of the product and ensure that this remains unchanged when the brand is marketed overseas. The brand's execution, however, should be adapted to a country's local environment.

Global marketing should be supported by initiatives aimed at overcoming the challenges to implementation.
