Overseas expansion has been instrumental for growth for Asia’s biggest consumer products companies, growing 3 times faster overseas than in their home market with 9 of the 50 firms generating more than half of their total revenue offshore and another 15 generating more than 25% of total revenue offshore.

Today on BizBytes we take a deeper dive into a recent Bain & Company report that explores how APAC consumer products firms expanded overseas quickly.

Helping us with this was Gino Dizon, Partner at Bain & Company. He is a member of Bain’s Consumer Products, Retail, and Mergers & Acquisitions practices.
