'This book is an important contribution for teaching marketing to undergraduate and graduate students in emerging market context. The underlying pedagogical frameworks and cases are carefully crafted to draw on the tremendous expertise of educators and practitioners who are experts in their individual country conditions and issues. Students will be able to develop marketing strategies that are appropriate for the unique marketing conditions in most African emerging markets. Practitioners can also apply the framework to policy formulation and implementation to social marketing issues that face many emerging market economies, especially African economies. '

Reseña del editor

This book gives readers an understanding of the factors that shape the marketing decisions of managers who operate in African economies. It brings together fifteen African cases written by scholars and executives with rich knowledge of business practices in Africa.

By combining theoretical insights with practical information from the cases, the reader is introduced to issues relating to marketing strategy formulation, managerial actions in designing and implementing marketing decisions, as well as the operational contexts within which these actions are taken.

The book is essential reading for both undergraduate and graduate students in marketing, international strategy and international business who require an understanding of African business.
