SUG
G

In an ethnic diverse nation,

Walmart should go for a joint
venture with local player to cater
deep into the markets.
With e-commerce sector posing a
big challenge, efforts should be
made to increase online presence
In economically less developed
country, efforts should be made to
garner loyalty and increasing
brand awareness by investing into
sectors like health, education and
water conservation
Better PR management tactics
