It has to do with the feasibility of establishing a business in a foreign country. You have to study their markets very well because what culturally sells in one country might not sell well in another.

1. Globalisation. \n   \nNo longer can management think in the box. Focus is on the world much more than localities.\n\n2. Information Superhighway.\n\nThe World Wide Web has changed the way we market. Various options will need to be looked at before money is committed to any form of marketting.\n\n3. Delivery\n\nShipping used to be easy. With the world as your market, logistics have to be in place to meet these needs.\n\n4. International Laws\n\nThe boderless world however necessitates that we know and appreciate international laws which can affect us.\n\n5. Foreign Currency.\n\nHedging, Conversions, exchange rates etc all these are key to operating in the changing world .

A transnational corporation is the same as a multinational corporation. It has its headquarters in one country and has offices or production units in several other countries. Transnationals locate in foreign countries to take advantage of tax incentives, cheap labour, favourable environmental laws, etc or to access a wider market.

Globilization generally refers to the relocation of manufacturing, information technology, and services-related jobs from developed countries in Europe and North America to the developing economies of India, China, and Central America.\n\nThe benefit to companies is access to lower wage workforces in developing countries to reduce labor costs. Companies that can use low cost labor to produce products can realize a much greater profit margin and return to shareholders.\n\nAnother angle on globalization is corporations who relocate      overseas and reap a winfall of tax benefits and loop hole exemptions. Globalization is a wonderful break for corporations and will even the playing field between developed and developing countries.

All the Nations that wanted our technology and our wealth will want globalisation.  The only people in the US that actually gain from globalisation are the rich folks that have corporations in another country.\n\nEverything we need is here.\nEverything that the world need in here.\n\nWill you share your house with any stranger just because your rich neighbor said it is o.k.?\n\n\nBut once the US is at the bottom of the food chain even the US rich folks will be kick out of India or China like dogs.  When that happen our rich folks will parade us with US flags on all the Wal-Mart trucks again.

I know that YOU want to be their sole distributor.  However, it may be in their best interest to have more than one.  It's especially true now because you are new and unproven.\n\nI see only two options.\n\n1.  See if you can negotiate a sole distributorship in your region of the country.\n\n2.  Provide extra service or reduced costs for the manufacturer.  In other words, sweeten the deal.  They may have mentioned a fictitious competitor to get you to do this.  How good are you at bluffing at poker.\n\nIf neither is acceptable to them, either you will have competition or you will have to walk away from the deal.

From the perspective of someone in the US occasionally looking for suppliers abroad, think how they often search for business partners from other countries:\n\n1. Make sure your company is listed in databases kept by your trade attaches in your embassies. Many companies first go-to place when they want suppliers from abroad are the respective embassies of the countries they want to deal with. Contact your department of foreign affairs to check how to get your name in their listings.\n\n2. Be in databases such as Thomas Register Global http://www.tremnet.com  is the most complete, up-to-date directory of global industrial suppliers and product information\n\n3. Participate in international trade fairs supported by your government, whether based in Thailand or international. Trade shows are your best bet to meeting potential clients from other countries. Even if you don't advertise and can only do this, make sure you do trade shows. Trade shows can connect you to the right audience you need.
