Four Ways Companies Can Expand into Asia
You don't need to have a specific orientation at first. We will listen to your goals and concerns about overseas expansion and propose the best approach. For example, when considering expansion, starting off by conducting local market research may be advisable.
01
Using Agents or Franchise Development
Contracting with local distributors or agents to offer products or services may be effective. The franchise model enables local business owners (franchisees) to operate under your brand. This allows for quick market access while keeping the risks low.
02
Establishing a Subsidiary (Direct Market Entry)
Setting up a subsidiary in the local area for direct market entry is another way. This allows for tailored sales and marketing strategies based on local needs.
03
Operating a Joint Venture
Establishing a company in partnership with a local firm makes it possible to leverage their expertise and networks and share risks.
04
Focusing on Online Sales and Digital Marketing
Selling products or services directly to local consumers via online is particularly effective in e-commerce markets.
Our company offers overseas influencer introduction, helping you select the right influencers to support rapid expansion in high-potential Southeast Asian markets.
