Abstract

This research will investigate and explore internal brand management within a retail internationalisation context. This represents a significant gap in the retail internationalisation literature. According to Burt & Sparks (2002) there is a growing sophistication in international retail markets that the development of the brand internally within the organisation could and possibly should be viewed as a critical requirement for successful retail internationalisation.
