E-learning: Distribution Channels in Southeast Asia
Overview
This course aims to provide participants with a better understanding of distribution channels in Southeast Asia (SEA). Products from SEA businesses are delivered to customers through distribution channels. By using a distribution channel, the product can be delivered regardless of place.
The world is becoming increasingly global, and going international or even SEA is a daunting task. The course will provide an overview of the main trends and tools that can be used to better meet the needs of the SEA market.
This course will focus on five SEA nations: Indonesia, Malaysia, The Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam, all of which are experiencing incremental growth due to their income levels, population, technology, education, infrastructure, etc.
