标题:Competition Or Cooperation: A Qualitative Study About The Firms’ Expectations From Their Suppliers On Their Growth And Internationalization Decisions
摘要:This study was conducted to determine firms’ expectations from the suppliers for their growth and internationalization decisions and whether they adopt a traditional/competitive or a collaborative approach in such a relationship. This study is designed as a qualitative research where seven managers were interviewed and they were asked questions to find out the firm expectations from its suppliers. According to the result of the qualitative content analysis applied to the interviews,it was seen that in the growth decisions of the firms,the expectations from the suppliers were primarily quality,cost and timely delivery of the products they supply. Only one firm strongly underlined its cost advantage expectation from the suppliers for its internationalization decision. As a result,it is seen that firms generally have a traditionalist/competitive approach with their suppliers to their growth decisions;and since their internationalization tendency is low,they do not attain an important role to their suppliers in this issue.
