Reference: 全球佈局

Reference information:
The term "全球佈局" is often used in marketing although its meaning may vary from one person to another.

"佈局" generally means "arrangement".

"全球佈局" is sometimes translated as "global presence", which means "跻身国际市场,参与国际竞争,在国际市场上占有一席之地(拥有一定势力)".

Due to the aforementioned meaning, "全球佈局" is sometimes translated as "global strategy" for market presence.

Global strategy as defined in business terms is an organization's strategic guide to globalization. A sound global strategy should address these questions: what must be (versus what is) the extent of market presence in the world's major markets? How to build the necessary global presence? What must be AND (versus what is) the optimal locations around the world for the various value chain activities? How to run global presence into global competitive advantage?

In addition, "全球佈局" is also translated as "global locations" in some cases.
