Nation Branding : Product-Country Image

[mehrotraprince]

Higher standards of living coupled with better affordability of worldwide transportation, increasing
development of worldwide communications, and the globalization of markets all contribute to the fact that
people know much more about countries than they did in the past. Thus, they are more likely than ever to
have formed organized mental representations about countries.

So I would like to name some Products which represent a particular Nation........basically products which are strongly linked to the image of a particular country.

India - IT, diversity.
China - Mass production, low cost.
Japan - Robots, high tech equipments.
Germany - Cars
Italy - Ferrari
Saudi Arabia - Oil
USA - Superpower
UK - Colonist



Please add your views........ what comes first to your mind when you hear a country name.
