Large corporate buyers are often standardizing on fewer global suppliers. Price pressures may compel you to move production or outsource to lower-cost countries.

Many companies jump into poorly planned global expansions - an expensive mistake.
Global expansions must cope with the uncontrollable elements of foreign markets, like:
Economic conditions
Political and legal forces
Cultural differences
Geography and infrastructure
Domestic and foreign competition
Technology and infrastructure in foreign markets
