4,If the organisation is considering new market development, is the organisation trying to enter a new customer or geographic market? Or both?
ConQ is obviously consider new market development and identified the two largest footwear markets in the world - the US and China.
In the minor case study given, new customer market development is evident for the US market and a combination of new customer and geographic market development will be needed for developing China market.
For US market
The new market development in the US is considered a new customer market development - a civilian (non military) market development.
As ConQ has spent more than 20 years conducting business in the US market, Coli, the CEO, considers the US market a local market.
ConQ’s US division has extensive warehousing and production capabilities, and has been highly adaptable to market changes, albeit in the defence industry.
ConQ has no retail experience in the US, but they feel they know how to do business there.
For China market
