    41/59

    Promotional measures and their

    implementation

    The range and intensity of a country'sexport promotion activities will depend on anumber of factors:

    Human and financial resources,

    The nature of products that can be exported,

    the characteristics of foreign markets, the experience of organizations responsible for

    implementing these activities.

    Export promotion strategies

    Export promotion strategies are part of tradepromotion Enterprise Level

    Industry Level National level

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    43/59

    Enterprise Level:

    A limited number of commodities are available forexport, so export sectors depend on internationaldevelopments affecting the world market.

    Industrial production of goods is limited by the lack ofdownstream activities, which does not allowenterprises to produce differentiated products forexport or provide some form of export diversification.

    Export promotion strategies

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    44/59

    Enterprise Level: There is dependence on one or two key export

    markets and supply sources, and this does not giveenterprises an opportunity to develop productsaccording to the standards of more developedmarkets. This also results in lack of knowledge aboutmarketing abroad.

    Enterprises lack export readiness, which might be dueto unwillingness to venture overseas because thedomestic market offers comfort and security

    Export promotion strategies

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    45/59

    Industry level:

    Two kinds of export dimensions to consider

    a)increasing the export of existing products

    looking at what industries currently produce for exportto the world market

    For many transitional and emerging economies,exports are mainly commodity and primary products.

    Therefore an initial export strategy should focus onenhancing and consolidating the volume of export intoexisting markets as well as diversifying to otherexports markets.

    Export promotion strategies

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    46/59

    Industry level:b) developing new exportable products,

    dimension involves making an assessment of what newproducts could be developed for export markets.

    These new products often originate from spin-offs ordownstream activities from existing core industries.

    For example, the oil industry supports petrochemical industriesand oil equipment manufacturing.

    Export promotion strategies

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    47/59

    Strategies should be based on comprehensive study of theexport potential for select products.

    This will involve:

    Clear identification of what is produced, planned productionin the near future and the most suitable markets for suchproducts;

    Concurrent study of what is being purchased in foreignmarkets in order to suggest what could be produced in thecountry to satisfy the needs and opportunities of foreignmarkets;

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    48/59

    Clear indication of constraints or problems for exportsin terms of production or market conditions, whichshould lead to recommendations about how to solve

    problems or counteract any constraints.

    Export promotion strategies

    49/59

    National level The government sets the overall economic direction

    and trade development strategy.

    Establishing the export dimension of this strategy interms of appropriate economic instruments andexport promotion measures is critical to nationalexport performance.

    Therefore, the design of relevant trade policies is thekey to a successful national export promotionprogramme.

    Importance of export promotion and

    development strategies

    The national export strategy focuses on promoting anddeveloping those products and markets that offer the bestopportunities for a country.

    Formulation and implementation of a national exportstrategy requires: A mechanism to co-ordinate policy formulation,

    Active participation and a sense of responsibility by the various

    bodies, institutions and officials involved, Persistent application of regulations, since frequent changes in

    regulations can be the one factor that is most detrimental (injurious)to the success of export promotion and development programmes.

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    51/59

    The role of trade promotion organizations

    in export promotion

    Governments establish TPOs to develop and implement thecountry's export promotion and development programmes. To provide specialized support to the producers of products for export,

    to serve as a catalyst for related services provided by other entities in thepublic and private sectors

    TPO acts as an adviser to the government on foreign trade and related matters.

    an effective bridge between the export community and the foreign

    markets,

    Special Economic Zones (SEZ)

    India was one of the first in Asia to recognize theeffectiveness of the Export Processing Zone (EPZ) model inpromoting exports, with Asia's first EPZ set up in Kandla in1965.

    Special Economic Zones (SEZ) were set up by theGovernment of India to augment infrastructure facilities forexport production.

    The Ministry of Commerce and Industry launched the SEZscheme in April 2000 to provide an internationallycompetitive and hassle free environment for export.

    Advantages

    The SEZ Act also provides a number of incentives to units proposedto be set up in SEZs. SEZ units may be set up for carrying onmanufacturing, trading or service activity.

    A unit set up in SEZ has the following facilities and incentives:

    15 year corporate tax holiday on export profit 100% for initial 5 years,50% for the next 5 years and up to 50% for the balance 5 yearsequivalent to profits

    No routine examination by Customs officials of export and importcargo.

    Advantages

  • 8/8/2019 Export Mktg

    59/59

    Disadvantages

    Revenue losses because of the various tax exemptions.

    Most players are interested in setting up SEZs with an eye on

    the real estate bounty so that they can acquire at cheap ratesand create a land bank for themselves.

    The number of units applying for setting up EOUs is not

    commensurate to the number of applications for setting upSEZs leading to a belief that this project may not match up toexpectations.
