period in order to meet both theory and practice SUBCONCLUSION CHAPTER Rattan and bamboo products in general and marketing strategies for exported rattan and bamboo products in particular are still attracting the attention of researchers in the world and in Vietnam In particular, in recent years, there have been a number of scientific works on individual handicraft villages producing rattan and bamboo for export but they have only stopped at studies on one or some aspects of development policies manufacturing, building material areas, or developing and promoting the essence of traditional craft villages Currently, Vietnamese rattan and bamboo production establishments are quite loose in linking trade village development policies and solutions; The marketing strategy for exported rattan and bamboo products has not been systematically studied, yet has identified the factors affecting this strategy Therefore, the thesis of the PhD student is an effort, an attempt to make up for the gap that needs to be filled in this very important and necessary issue Chapter THEORY ON IMPLEMENTING EXPORT MARKETING STRATEGIES AND RESEARCH METHODS 2.1 Theory on marketing strategy and export marketing

analyze data and test research hypotheses The chapter also describes the interview process, sampling techniques, and scale construction for the study Chapter CURRENT SITUATION OF IMPLEMENTING MARKETING STRATEGIES FOR VIETNAM'S RATTAN AND BAMBOO PRODUCTS FOR EXPORT 3.1 Overview of the actual export of rattan and bamboo products Trading in rattan and bamboo products from a regional perspective, Asia is the main source of rattan and bamboo products In 2018, the export value of rattan and bamboo products from Asia reached US $ 2499.7 million, accounting for 78.5% of the global export value Next is Europe, with export turnover of 518.4 million USD, accounting for about 16.2% of global exports In the annual export turnover of rattan and bamboo, the product structure also shows diversity Bamboo and rattan Tet products dominate the rattan and bamboo export market, contributing over 50% of Vietnam's total export turnover to the 14 world over the years Next is bamboo and rattan industrial products, which account for 30-35% depending on the year 3.2 Analyze the current situation of implementing export marketing strategy 3.2.1 Decision making process to implement export marketing strategy Through interviews to collect experts' opinions on the implementation of the marketing strategy for exporting rattan and bamboo products through three rounds as described at, the author mapped out this process and presented in diagram 3.1 Observing diagram 3.1, it can be seen that the decision-making process of implementing export marketing strategy for rattan and bamboo products for export is shown by enterprises as follows: To formulate an export marketing strategy for rattan and bamboo products, enterprises, conduct an analysis of the macro and competitive environment of enterprises Diagram 3.1 Flowchart of decision making process of marketing strategy for rattan and bamboo export Source: Authors 15 3.2.2 Situation of market analysis According to the statistics of Trademap (updated database system on the trade situation of countries), the market share of rattan and bamboo of Vietnam in the world market is only about 3.37% In particular, the two major markets are the US accounting for 20%, Japan 16% of total export value According to experts in rattan and bamboo industry in Vietnam, there are still many opportunities for development, capable of capturing 8% - 10% of the world market and reaching a value of about US $ billion in the future 3.2.3 Actual situation of selecting target market Business managers participating in the survey were asked to answer only one major market where they currently account for the largest export turnover compared to other markets show that there are 38 enterprises claiming to have products exported to the United States (accounting for 19%); There are 41 enterprises cooperating mainly with Japan (accounting for 20%); There are 28 enterprises currently in the EU market Export activities (accounting for 13%) in ASEAN countries are 23 enterprises (accounting for 11%); Africa: 30 enterprises (14.5%); other markets have 45 enterprises and account for 22.5% (including countries such as UAE, Saudi Arabia - China, China ) In general, as analyzed, due to the characteristics of Vietnam's rattan and bamboo production enterprises, mainly in craft villages, the awareness of implementing effective and professional marketing activities remains Modest, especially aware of implementation of STP strategies, market segmentation, target market selection and market positioning, although Vietnam's handicrafts already have a certain brand In the international market, however, it is still limited on the part of enterprises to take advantage of this position to position themselves in the target market 3.2.4 Actual situation of implementing a mixed marketing strategy for export products Vietnam is one of the countries with large bamboo sources in the world Currently, the national bamboo area is nearly 1.4 million (accounting for 10.5% of the national forest area) Regarding rattan resources, it is estimated that there are about 30 species of rattan in our country Although there are many potentials and advantages to grow and develop bamboo, neohouzeaua, rattan, our country still has to import rattan materials for production and processing from some countries in the region with a demand of about 33 thousand tons / year Meanwhile, the export market share of Vietnam's rattan industry accounts for less than 3% of the world market The market share of Vietnam's rattan products in the period of 2010-2015 is about 12% To meet such growth, the demand for bamboo materials by 2020 needs at least one billion bamboo trees per year Germany, the US and Japan have for many years been the main import market for rattan, bamboo and handicraft products from Vietnam The main items are furniture, 16 decorative lamps, packages, containers made of wood, water hyacinth, rattan Currently, the trend is that all importers have made available samples and placed line In general, Vietnamese products are appreciated for quality, skillful craftsmen, but in the long run to compete with cheap Chinese and Indian goods, the improvement of design quality is very important Products made from rattan and bamboo are divided into groups, including traditional products (food, handicrafts, blinds, mats, toothpicks, paper, etc.) and new products (bamboo flooring, art boards) and making furniture, pressed bamboo for making lining of the road, pressed bamboo for construction, making activated carbon, making fiber ) In terms of product policy, there are criteria to be analyzed including: Products are always improved on design and quality; Products imbued with Vietnamese culture; Friendly products with the environment; Products bring value to users 3.2.5 Actual situation of deploying marketing strategy resources for exported products The survey results show that the main human resources working in the current market in rattan and bamboo enterprises are mainly directors or business owners In addition to operating production, business, foreign affairs, these business owners concurrently work as marketers to take care of the output of products In fact, surveys of rattan and bamboo enterprises show that most enterprises are small-scale, lack of working capital, so even if the labor force can reach up to 100 people but mostly workers manual, and marketing team is very little Obviously, the business activities of many businesses are still relatively passive now Businesses are not fully aware that they need to proactively search for the market but cannot passively wait for orders from abroad while their products are not strong compared to competitors from other countries 3.2.6 The situation of checking and evaluating the implementation of export marketing strategy of enterprises Examining and evaluating the implementation of marketing export strategies is an activity aimed at re-evaluating marketing policies and strategies for export goods, drawing lessons on successes and failures of enterprises However, the survey results show that most of the rattan and bamboo export enterprises not really care about this activity 17 3.3 Assess factors affecting the implementation of export marketing strategy 3.3.1 Results of analyzing the impact of the exporter's environment on the export marketing strategy 3.3.2 Results of analyzing the influence of the environment of the importing country on the export marketing strategy 3.3.3 Results of analyzing the internal environmental impact of enterprises on export marketing strategies 3.3.4 Results of testing differences in export marketing strategies based on business characteristics 3.4 Discuss the research results The results of qualitative research have pointed out the steps to develop an export marketing strategy for rattan and bamboo products and factors affecting the marketing strategy for rattan and bamboo export of rattan enterprises exported bamboos using DSA research methodology (decision system analysis) based on interviews with experts including the following steps: 1) analysis of PEST model (model of environmental analysis of macro : Political - legal factors of Vietnam and importing countries, Vietnam's economic environment and importing countries, socio-cultural environment of Vietnam and importing countries and environment Vietnamese-imported technology and technology; 2) analysis of the competitive environment using a 5-person model The number includes: Current competitors; potential competitors; alternative products; supplier pressure (for exporting country) and customer pressure (for importing country); 3) analysis of internal corporate environment From these analyzes, the export rattan and bamboo enterprises build export marketing strategies based on four marketing schemes, including: product strategy, pricing strategy, distribution strategy and marketing strategy Promotion These findings complement previous research results of several authors, such as Bui Huu Duc (2009), Anderson & Buvik (2002) and Cavusgil et al (2004), and Brouthers, LE, & Nakos , G (2005); 3.5 Conclusion 3.5.1 Achievement Through the analysis of survey data and combined with field observations, secondary information can be seen in recent years, enterprises producing rattan and bamboo products for export have made achievements in the field The export marketing strategy for rattan and bamboo is as follows: Regarding market analysis, rattan and bamboo export enterprises have conducted thorough market research and analysis activities Most of the scores for this activity have reached above average In particular, besides the implementation of Market Research Activities, it also shows the awareness of these businesses about the role and importance of market research Regarding market segmentation, target market selection and market positioning, rattan and bamboo export enterprises have paid attention to these 18 activities The fact that some rattan and bamboo export enterprises actively find niche markets through recommendations of trade promotion agencies and organizations (VCCI, Vietnam Association of Rattan and Bamboo) shows this activity was taken seriously.Đối với việc triển khai chiến lược marketing hỗn hợp: Regarding products, exported rattan and bamboo enterprises have confirmed that they have made serious investments in researching suitable models and materials to produce innovative and friendly products environment friendly In terms of prices, rattan and bamboo export enterprises have been flexible in formulating price policies in line with the market, the price policies have been tied to the market more, promoting the advantage of rattan price , Vietnam woven bamboo The company's product distribution policy is quite diverse, in addition to using traditional distribution channels, businesses have diversified distribution channels through retail websites of Vietnam and the world Promotion policies have been paid more attention by investment enterprises There have been businesses actively participating in trade fairs Through the actual survey also showed that there are businesses actively writing PR articles promoting images through trade promotion websites 3.5.2 Limitation Although market analysis activities have been more properly perceived, businesses are still quite passive, not active in capturing information as well as implementing activities to learn about customer needs in depth In general, as analyzed, because the characteristics of Vietnam's rattan and bamboo enterprises are mainly in craft villages, the awareness of marketing activities is professional and effective Especially awareness of implementation of STP strategies, market segmentation, target market selection and market positioning remains modest Although Vietnam's handicrafts have certain brand images in the international market, the export of rattan and bamboo enterprises takes advantage and promotes this advantage to position their businesses Its target market is quite limited SUBCONCLUSION CHAPTER In this chapter, in the first part, the thesis describes and generalizes the situation of import and export of rattan and bamboo products on the world market as well as in Vietnam Next, the author analyzes the implementation of export marketing strategies based on the inheritance of the results of the review, expert interviews, and the flow chart of the implementation of export marketing
