Abstract:
With their home markets getting saturated, cosmetic companies are skidding into emerging markets for growth. L’Oreal is no different and its globalisation strategy amply proves this.

- To discuss L’Oreal’s globalisation strategies.
Keywords : Globalisation Strategies; Strategies for Saturated Market; Strategies for Emerging Market; Opportunities in Emerging Markets; Manufacturing Strategy vs Import Strategies; Customisation vs Standardisation; Growth Strategies Case Study; Market Leader’s Strategies; Market Followers Strategies; Loreal’s Brand Architecture; Product Portfolio Analysis; Distribution Strategies; Country of Origin as Branding Strategy; Premium Image as a Barrier to Globalisation
