How can we work globally and locally?

Vijay Mahajan: Africa Rising, p. 135.
In Nigeria, where 3.5 million babies are born every year,
Unilever distributes 1 million free samples of products such
as Pears baby lotion to mothers in maternity clinics and
hospitals.
The company has worked with the nurses and midwives
association to educate mothers about baby care.

P&G cut the price of Crest toothpaste more
than 50% in China by reducing the cost of
packaging, which is less important to
consumers than being able to choose
from a variety of flavours.

Noting, for example, that many Indians use
their TVs to listen to music, LG introduced
new models with better speakers and, to
keep prices competitive, less costly displays.

Intensive customer research and feedback
determine the kind of adaptations to be
made to products - the colour of refrigerators,
for instance.
The generous use of oil and strong spices such as
turmeric in Punjabi cooking can stain pastel-colored
appliances, which is why more intense shades do
particularly well in that market.

We don't think localization is just about local hiring,
local tax contribution, and localized products.
Our view is that the next level of localization is about
collaborating with the best local businesses in various
disciplines and specialized fields, and integrating their
innovation into our global value chain.

One innovation that came out of India is the solar-
powered coolers. We’re looking to expand that to other
markets. There’s great engineering talent in India.
Another product that shows promise is Minute Maid’s
Pulpy, an orange juice with pulp that did extremely well
in China. We expanded it into many countries.

The World Wildlife Fund (WWF) works with
Coca-Cola, which operates 39 bottling plants
in China, to improve the water quality of the upper
reaches of the Yangtze river, which provides China with
35% of its fresh water and is the longest river in Asia.
For example, WWF and Coca-Cola work with rural farmers
to reduce the runoff of animal waste into the river by
turning pig waste into biogas, a type of fuel that can be
used for cooking and heating.

In Morocco, The Coca-Cola Company sponsored its
own university, teaching shopkeepers how to use
Excel spreadsheets and training salespeople.

For Coartem [an antimalarial drug], Novartis has created
extensive educational materials and blister packs
with illustrations to encourage proper use of the drugs.
The company has even created comic books in different
languages for children to raise awareness of malaria and
discuss its prevention and treatment.

For the food industry, where cultural
sensitivities and local tastes are very
important, it's absolutely imperative that
we delegate substantial authority to local
management.

Since World War II, Nestlé's milk has by
and large been produced by thousands
of small farmers in developing countries.

In Brazil, Nestlé engages rural women to operate
as distributors. They travel door-to-door demonstrating
product benefits and selling directly to consumers.
By creating incentives for local retail entrepreneurs
rather than hiring salaried employees or franchise holders,
the company reduces its need to monitor individual sales
performance.

Nestlé has provided the technology, training, and
supply-chain investments to make it possible for
the small farmer to produce good-quality milk,
transport it, and sell it to the company.

McDonald’s serves vegetarian burgers
in India and spicy ones in Mexico.
http://www.economist.com/node/18584204

In crowded cities, delivery is essential for
businesses from fast food to groceries. The
streets are congested, and parking is
unavailable. Home delivery has emerged as the
most important channel for sales.
McDonald’s and other fast-food restaurants
carry meals through traffic in Cairo on delivery
scooters.

The secret to the success KFC in
China can be traced to its use of
local ingredients - both in its
management team and on its
menus.

We customize our international flavors to suit
local preferences, and 20% of our overall menu
is localized. World over, the toppings at Pizza
Hut are mainly beef and pepperoni.
But in India, where up to 60% of the people are
estimated to be vegetarian, we have more
variety in vegetarian toppings.

Radio stations create their own community.
A radio station is in fact “a family”, and the listener
is invited to become involved with the activities of
this family, on a daily basis.

The production of http://www.nike.com/ footwear

globally.
Materials for those products are supplied by
hundreds more vendors. And those products use a
palette of more than 16,000 materials.

When BP sought to market a duel-fuel portable
stove in India, it set up one such co-creation
system with 3 Indian NGOs.

The system allowed BP to bring the innovative
stove to a geographically dispersed market
through myriad local distributors without
incurring distribution costs so high that the
product would become unaffordable.

The company sold its stoves profitably, the NGOs
gained access to a lucrative revenue stream that could
fund other projects, and consumers got more than the
ability to sit down to a hot meal - they got the
opportunity to earn incomes as the local distributors
and thus to gain economic and social influence.

www.ge.com has 420 factories
around the world giving us
tremendous flexibility.
We used to have 1 site to make
locomotives. Now we have
multiple global sites.
