NIKE believes Brazil and China (FXI), two key markets, are
under-penetrated. Chinas growing middle class and the
growing sporting environment are important revenue
opportunities. The company wants to improve its product
mix and profitability in the Chinese market to take
advantage of the changing landscape.
Brazil already has a healthy sports culture, even apart from
soccer. NIKE was a sponsor at the FIFA 2014 soccer World
Cup and is also a sponsor at Rios Olympic Games, slated
for 2016. The company wants to use these opportunities to
enhance its image not only in Brazil, but all over the world.
Parts 11 to 13 discuss how these opportunities are likely to
pan out.
