THE INTERNATIONAL ENVIRONMENT
FOREIGN MARKET-BRAZIL
PEST ANALYSIS
from the Brazil
As mentioned before, Brazil is a country in economic expansion and with good future predictions to develop a business and for this reason, the decision to bring the brand Vivienne Westwood could be a beneficial strategy to enter the Latin American market. Consecutively The international environment will be analyzed.
Political environment.
Economic environment.
Social / Cultural
Technology
The current political context of Brazil has marked by-elections, the extreme right in power and the end of the new republic. (1985-2018) Following this, we guess that the sets of America are once again confronted with their authoritarian past. The whole world hopes for a shock of conscience that did not happen. With the rise of the extreme right. This may destroy all democratic institutions in its path. political crisis (scandals and serial cases, parliamentary coup with the dismissal of President Dilma Rousseff in 2015, imprisonment of former President Ignácio Lula da Silva), legal crisis (politicization of justice, including the Supreme Court), social crisis (growth of inequalities, the return of poverty, the disintegration of political health, culture and education), a crisis in public security (explosion of crime and violence, police, military intervention in the state of Rio de Janeiro, feeling of insecurity generalized). Despite the difficulties related to the brevity of its mandate, President Michel Temer has managed to form one of the best economic teams that the country has known for a long time. This success can be seen not only in the Ministry of Finance and the Central Bank of Brazil but also in other sectors and institutions of the country. Increasing productivity must remain a national priority. One of the things that characterize Brazil the most about the economic sphere is an incredible corruption that reigns there. There are countless cases in which the investigation has revealed the involvement and corruption of politicians. The economy of Brazil is actually made up largely of foreigners investments. The main investors in Brazil are the United States, Spain, and Belgium. The most attractive sectors for investment are finance, beverages, oil, gas, and telecommunications. the textile sector is interesting due to the opportunity of the positive future predictions. Brazil is arguably one of the most profitable and promising markets in the world.current world economic context. is one of the four main emerging countries in the world (Brazil, Russia, India, China). Currently, the country offers a flourishing business panorama. “GDP in Brazil is expected to be 2100.00 USD Billion by the end of this quarter, according to Trading Economics global macro models and analysts expectations. In the long-term, the Brazil GDP is projected to trend around 2350.00 USD Billion in 2020”,(tradingeconomics.com/nodate) Brazil has an importnat cultural heritage, with theaters, cinemas, concert halls, and cultural activities such as the Río de Janeiro carnival. In the country, there is a promise of social promotion through education and inclusion. But there is an important difference between social classes. The upper class seeks to exed, and consequently, this social class is a potential buyer of luxury brands as they seek to differentiate themselves from the rest. on the other hand, there is a high rate of criminal violence, poverty, and infant mortality the dissatisfaction with the commodification of everyday life, with the Precarious working conditions, housing, education, and transportation. To summarize, let’s say that since 2013, the situation is increasingly complex and polarized.
In terms of technology, Brazil has a track record that places it on the podium of the Western world: 8th for its industrial production, 7th for its iron and steel petrochemical, 5th for its arms sales. These results are encouraging, even if they remain far from those of the first. On the other hand, science and technology indicators are not Brazilian researcher and scientific publications, Brazil finds itself all even in the group of Third World countries. However in this country the industrialization was belated, integrated in capitalism, it comes out of twenty years of authoritarian, centralizing bureaucratic, the challenge of technological development is complex and reveals imbalances in heart of the adopted development model.
INTERNATIONALIZATION BARRIER S IN BRAZIL
THE CHALLENGE TO OPEN A COMPANY IN BRAZIL COULD BE: Bureaucracy The reform of the laws and regulations for opening and developing a business in Brazil. Corruption Corruption is an obstacle in the country due to the federal structure of the political system, which in several cases demands for bribes. Taxes “Brazil’s tax regime is one of the driving forces behind its complexity. More than 90 taxes, duties, and contributions are charged in Brazil, and all taxes are based on different government spheres of federal taxes, state taxes, and municipal taxes”. (TMF GROUP/2018) Local labor force “The labor force participation rate in Brazil is increasing and was approaching 62% by end of 2017. Unemplyment is nearing 12%, but the cost of labor is falling while wages are rising quarter on quarter. Export and import barriers Brazil is the 21st largest export economy in the world; in 2016, the country exported $182bn and imported $135bn worth of goods, resulting in a positive trade balance of $46.4bn. Imports, however, are decreasing at an annualized rate of -19.552%. Businesses can often be confronted with complications when exporting and importing goods”. (TMF GROUP/2018)
ETHICS AND SUSTAINABILITY

Brazil has a significant role in talking about the environment since it is the first area of biodiversity in the world. The Amazon forest is considered the lung of the world, and despite that Deforestation in Brazil has long been the greatest in the world, and it's still This is a very worrying topic for the people of the country, but also for the rest of the world. It leads to an important ecological impact. The defense of the Amazon is an international cause, but the first actors are still the indigenous peoples of the forest.
ETHICS AND SUSTAINABILITY
from Brazil
Brazil has hosted the 2 most important international conferences of sustainability. The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (1992 Earth Summit) and the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development (Rio+20). Brazil made a commitment to cut greenhouse gas emissions by 37% by 2025 and by 43% by 2030 as part of the Paris Agreement, however the country position against the Paris agreement is an issue in discussion since the current president is in disagreement with several points, and holds that the agreement can affect the sovereignity of his country. In Brazil there is a variety of laws and NGO´S that protect and work to improve the environment following some examples:
laws, public policies, NGO's.

This target is conscious and cares about the environment and society. we could say that Camila Coutinho Brasilian influencer could be the perfect target for Vivienne Westwood.
MARKET ENTR Y STRATEGY
Description, analysis and evaluation.
The strategy proposed to enter the Brazilian market
Direct Export: This usually occurs when the producing firm takes care of exporting their products and in addition, this method permits the brand to have direct contact with the clients in the foreign market. The brand is involved dealing with the documentation, physical delivery and pricing policies this strategy was selected due to the brand need to maintain the control to enter in the market since it belongs to the luxury sector and It is also important to keep the international image built by the brand. it is essential to give the best possible impression since in the future the brand goal is to enter in the Latin American market. The strategy will be explained in detail below: 1: Bring the brand to Sao Paulo Why? Because it is the financial capital of Brazil, it is also one of the great centers of culture, entertainment, fashion, and business worldwide. According to the Spanish Journalist, Virtudes Sรกnchez "77.9% of business open in the financial capital of Brazil survives during the first years ". (Sรกnchez/2014) 2: Where in Sao Paulo? The JK Iguatemi shopping center.Center of elegance of the Brazilian metropolis,commercial center of international luxury brands, visited by local metropolitan and also by a high number of tourists from around the world. It is the perfect place to give visibility to the brand and also position it in the desired place. 3.How? A pop up store. Why ? Because through this strategy the brand will be able to offer a unique experience for the consumer, create expectation, enter the market in an innovative way, create sales, create the feeling of emotion since its limited duration is an attraction to visit the store itself . and above all, it will be a mechanism to analyze the success of the brand in this new market without risking too much. To enter a new, profitable and short-term territory without having to implement an aggressive sales policy. Evaluation And the success of this strategy will be reflected in The popularity and acceptance of the brand in this new market,additionally will be reflected in the expansion of the database, sales and new potential buyer. If the results are positive, the brand will open its doors indefinitely in the Brazilian market.
MARKETING STRATEGY
Pricing Strategy & Positioning
To accompany the strategy of launching the brand in the Brazilian market, a communication campaign will be carried out where it will focus on social networks since its target spends most of the time using facebook, instagram, and twitter. Pricing Strategy Vivienne Westwood is a luxury brand and due to this the brand It should not decrease the price of their products consequently the strategy will be to increase the prices 14 %, to cover the high exportation taxes, furthermore launching the brand in a pop-up store and giving the customers a limited collection helps the pricing strategy. The objective is not to generate losses and measure consumer behavior for the future brand expansion. Positioning The brand wants to position itself in the luxury sector. Since it is an exclusive brand. The brand is considered to fall within the premium product segment where it belongs to a more luxurious market. In comparison to their competitors, their brand Identity is politically focused, which is shown in their campaign as well. as well as being sustainable, and supporting social causes. Vivienne Westwood belongs to a niche market, however, is a brand that is well known for its vision, values, unique products with an alternative English style, its history, and heritage. and this could help the brand to position itself in Brazil in the desired place. Taking into account the following competitors: a positioning map will be created. To show where the brands want to position in the Brazilian market Brand awareness, 10

Implementation steps & time table
For the development of the international expansion plan, it is necessary to develop a series of activities that will allow to know if the idea of expanding the brand to a market like Brazil is favorable for the business. The first thing to do is to understand the context and the current situation of the country, since it is important to know if the situation is adequate, if the time is indicated, and if the public could find the products attractive, especially to understand if the brand could reach the desired target to ensure sales. the market study will be conducted to understand the country in a deeper way. On the other hand, after analyzing the previous situation it is important to analyze which is the best strategy to enter that new market that means if the brand wants to have general control, or would prefer to look for another mechanism. In this case, after having studied the different options, it was concluded that the best way is to have direct control using a pop-up store. This will be accompanied by a marketing and communication strategy to support the entry of the brand to this new market, generating emotional expectation and brand awareness. It must take into consideration the entire logistic process of the strategy application that is, the production and selection of products, the distribution, The organization of the store and the legal aspects, as well as the new work team organization in the new country. Finally, It is necessary to establish KPIs that will help as a performance meter to think about a possible future expansion in the said market.
Ethics and sustainability strategy. The first thing that the brand will take into account will be the production. The brand will control the textile waste, water pollution and the use of toxic chemical substances. Additionally, The brand will respect the employees and pay them a sufficient salary. On the other hand, the Vivienne Westwood brand will not only seek to be sustainable but also works every day to raise awareness among its consumers about mass consumption and the importance of protecting the environment. This is the perfect time for the brand to show support and fight for the protection of the Amazon rainforest.
CONCLUSION & RECOMMENDATION In conclusion, Brazil is a country with enormous potential. Despite the struggled to develop, and The current political and social difficulties. The country has proved that it was able to exploit the potential for positive results. The goal is, therefore, to take advantage of the future economic predictions Moreover, the implementation of the brand in the Brazilian territory would be a great opportunity to consider future expansion in the rest of Latin America which also has very promising countries in the near future. Brazil is also an excellent choice due to successful collaborations that Vivienne Westwood has been doing in the past with Brazilian brands such as Melissa Brazil and Mac Brazil. the brand has indirectly been working to obtain recognition in the country. From an ecological point of view, Vivienne Westwood's state of mind will be positive and welcome in the country providing support in ecological and social movements taking into account the current situation. It would be recommended that Vivienne Westwood upon entering the market create a strong communication campaign that accompanies the launch of the brand in this city, on the other hand, it is imperative that the brand is advised by a legal group that knows the Brazilian market very well. The brand must worry about hiring a qualified staff that knows how to sell in an exclusive way since the brand wants to position itself in luxury and the best possible service must be given, with the objective that the consumer has an unforgettable experience.
