This research addresses a highly relevant and pressing topic in the realm of international business and manufacturing. With globalization and increased competition, companies worldwide are seeking to expand their market reach beyond domestic boundaries. The importance of crafting effective international sales
strategies cannot be overstated, as it can significantly impact a company's growth and
profitability. In this context, this study focuses on FERRIT s.r.o, a manufacturing company, to provide a practical example of international sales strategy development.
This is particularly timely given the evolving dynamics of global markets, trade regulations, and customer expectations.
The relevance of the research topic is based on the recognized need for companies to expand their sales geography, driven by the desire to open new markets and increase their customer base, and consequently, their revenue.
In today's globalized economy, companies are presented with unique
opportunities to expand their influence in the global market. One of the key elements of successful company development in this context is the development and implementation of an effective international sales strategy. In the manufacturing

With various forms of market entry available for international expansion, it is necessary to build a sound strategy that significantly differs from domestic sales strategies and takes into account the peculiarities of foreign economies. When formulating an international strategy, one of the company's primary tasks is to forecast market dynamics as a whole entity and delve into specifics – the markets of specific countries where international operations are planned.
In today's globalized business environment, entering international markets often holds the key to sustainable growth and success. Conducting research in this
field can help identify market opportunities, understand cultural differences, analyze
competition, determine effective pricing and distribution strategies, and make informed decisions about market entry and expansion. By developing a well-founded
and adapted international sales strategy, industrial enterprises can achieve success in
global markets and reach their growth objectives.
The main purpose of this research is to examine and understand the
development of international sales strategies employed by manufacturing companies, with Ferrit s.r.o. as a case study.
