The diagram illustrates the manufacturing relocation process from an internationalization perspective. It begins with factors such as market dynamics and knowledge, which feed into the initiation phase. The process then flows through decision-making, implementation, and evaluation stages. The experience gained from this process feeds back into the initiation phase, creating a continuous loop. The diagram highlights the interconnectedness of these stages and the iterative nature of the manufacturing relocation process.An internationalisation perspective on the initiation of the manufacturing relocation process (based on: Figure 2; Johanson and Vahlne (1977, 2009), Fjellström et al.
