By these firms customizing the products they offer to local demand, the firm increases the value of that product in the local market. But on the downside, it involves some duplication of functions. The strategy may make sense, however, if the added value associated with local customization supports higher pricing, which enables the firm to recoup its higher costs, or if it leads to substantially greater local demand, enabling the firm to reduce costs through the attainment of some scale economies in the local market.

Instead, they should prefer to market a standardized product worldwide so that they can reap the maximum benefits from economies of scale and learning effects.…
