- . Non-equity modes are especially popular among consumer-services firms (such as hotel and restaurant firms) as compared to professional-services firms (such as consulting firms) In a non-equity mode, exporting and contractual agreement are the two routes to choose from. Exporting is a way for an organization to expand its products or services into a foreign market without having to make an investment in items such as facilities within that market. There are two main exporting modes; Direct Exports and Indirect Exports.  Contractual agreements are another way to expand into a foreign market without a large commitment. There are four main agreement types; Licensing/Franchising, Turnkey Projects, Research & Development Contracts, Co-marketing. Â
- Up to 15%. Licensing royalty rates paid for video game inventions. âThe industry average for licensing is about 3 percent, but if the product has a patent, the inventor can ask for a higher royalty,
- The Coca-Cola Company uses a licensing arrangement known as a franchise system. All license holders, or franchisees, are legally independent enterprises that have concluded a bottling contract with The Coca-Cola Company (TCCC). This contract confers them the right to produce TCCC's products and to market them in a certain region. In Austria, this company is Coca-Cola Hellenic Bottling Company, SA, of which Coca-Cola HBC Austria is a member.
- Advantages for licensing are the rapid diffusion of technology or brand awareness for relatively low capital investment. Coca Cola senior managers view licensing as a powerful marketing term. As he said âIt provides us with an opportunity to support, enhance and ultimately extend our brand messages through relevant product categories. Our goal is to provide unique and compelling products that build preference for our brands and, ultimately, inspire moments of happiness."
- Coca Cola is relying on contractual enforcement of controls and in some markets it is difficult to use legal redress with business partners to disagreements upon implementation
- The main drive behind this success and rapid expansion was the franchising strategy, which helped them easily penetrate new markets and enlarge their target markets.
- Contract manufacturing is a process that establishes a working agreement between two companies. As part of the agreement, one company custom produces parts or other materials on behalf of their client. In most cases, the manufacturer also handles the ordering and shipment processes for the client. As a result, the client does not have to maintain manufacturing facilities, purchase raw materials, or hire labor in order to produce the finished goods. The basic working model used by contract manufacturers translates well into many different industries. Since the process is essentially outsourcing production to a partner that privately brands the end product, there are a number of different business ventures that can make use of this arrangement. There are many pharmaceutical contract manufacturing currently functioning today, as well as similar arrangements in food manufacturing, the creation of computer components and other forms of electronics. Even industries like personal care and hygiene products, automotive parts, and medical supplies are often created under the terms of such an agreement.
- Although IKEA household products and furniture are designed in Sweden, they are largelymanufactured in developing countries to keep costs down. China accounts for about 2½ times as much supply as Sweden. For most of its products, the final assembly is performed by the end-user (consumer).
- Cost Advantages A contract manufacturer may offer cost advantages over a companyâs internal production facilities. The manufacturer may, for example, be based in a country with low labor costs. Some contract manufacturers specialize in specific types of products, setting up high-volume production lines that allow them to produce products at a low unit cost. A company can also obtain a cost advantage by outsourcing production rather than investing expensive capital in production equipment and hiring skilled labor. The Problem of Hidden Costs Although companies may gain an apparent cost advantage by using a low-cost contract manufacturer, they must also consider the additional costs of dealing with an outsourcing partner. A company using a contract manufacturer in a low-cost country, for example, may incur shipping costs that cancel out any unit cost advantages. The company may also have to appoint staff to manage and monitor the performance and quality of the contract manufacturer. Operational Advantages A company can gain significant operational advantages by using contract manufacture. If demand for products increases, for example, a company can hire additional production capacity to meet short-term demand without investing in its own facilities. Companies developing new products can use contract manufacturers to produce pilot runs for test marketing before setting up full-scale production facilities. Companies can also improve the quality or performance of their own products by outsourcing production of components they cannot manufacture with their own resources. Risk Factors in C Although there are important operational advantages, companies must also be aware of potential risks in contract manufacturing. Loss of control is a major challenge. Contract manufacturers may not be able to maintain production schedules or meet agreed quality standards, particularly in distant locations where day-to-day control is impractical. Contract manufacturers specializing in particular types of products may work for a number of companies that are competitors, increasing the risk of losing sensitive commercial or technical information.
