Abstract

The world is now an international marketplace, with organisations trading in diverse geographical locations. However, the links between organisations and their home countries often remain strong in the minds of consumers (Phau and Prendergast 2000). Indeed, international managers often work to strengthen and gain leverage from these associations, for example Alfa Romeo with Italy or Dior with France. Alternatively others will seek to diminish them when country of origin (COO) associations are likely be negative (Chao 1989; Chao 2001).
