Marketing in a Transition Economy: New Realities, Challenges, and Prospects

by Nasrin Akter, Muhammad Ismail Hossain, Abureza M. Muzareba

This book presents case studies of local, regional, and international businesses to show that marketing is an environment-sensitive activity, requiring an environment-specific treatment. The business eco-system of Bangladesh is considerably different from those of developed and developing countries due to a range of factors including the unmatched patterns in logistics, infrastructure, enforcement of laws and regulations, cultural differences, and competitiveness. Insightful differences in business practices between the economies of Bangladesh and the West and/or other developing countries are unfolded in this book.

The nuances of the contextual operational realities around different aspects of the business including marketing environment and management, consumer behavior, supply chain management, brand management, customer relationship management, services marketing, digital marketing, integrated marketing communications, and marketing ethics are presented in this book. The business knowledge shared by the unique breadth and depth of cases is sure to make this book an effective resource for academia and industry.
