INTRODUCTION
Branding is an advertising practice in which an organization makes a name, image or design that is effectively
recognizable as having a place with the organization.
Branding is important because not only it makes a memorable impression on consumers, but also allows
customers and clients to know what to expect from the company.
Eg: Starbucks- Their success is attributed to real customer experience around coffee consumption. The
emphasis is on classy design, cozy atmosphere, custom-made coffee, friendly staff, and fast service.
ZARA - It is focused on changing in accordance with consumers, spread across various societies and age
gatherings. They emphasis on these guiding principles: beauty, clarity, functionality, and sustainability

CULTURE
Culture is defined simply as the learned distinctive way of life of a society.
International trade is booming. Brand and Products originating from one country are finding enthusiastic
acceptance in others and every country has its own traditions, cultural, norms and taboos.
Culture also influences the management decisions and all business functions from accounting to promotion.
Impact of culture in branding
Language
Language differences can be a challenge for marketers designing campaigns, product labels, brand
and product names, tag lines, and so on.
E.g.: - Toyota’s Fiera proved controversial in Puerto Rico where ‘fiera” translates to ‘ugly old woman’.
Values
Values are part of the societal fabric of a culture. Values are also learned through experiences.
E.g.: - In United States, tend to be individualistic and make many purchasing decisions based on their
own personal preferences unlike japan.
Business Norms
Business norms vary from one country to other that may present challenges to outsiders not used to
operating according to the host country.
E.g.: - In China, many rounds of toasts are customary as part of formal dinner meetings unlike middle
eastern countries.
