Case | HBS Case Collection | 1984
by Robert J. Dolan
Corporate headquarters wishes to expand sales of a sealant product currently sold only in the West German market. Regional affiliates, operating on a profit center basis, are not enthusiastic about taking on the new product. The case describes the company's standardization plan in which the same product would be marketed with a standardized strategy throughout Europe.
