It explores expansion into Denmark and Kuwait, balancing growth with identity preservation. Combining qualitative and quantitative research, the study highlights opportunities such as eco-conscious product lines for Scandinavian sustainability trends and bespoke luxury collections inspired by Middle Eastern art. Teaching notes on competition provide additional insights. The findings demonstrate how legacy brands can achieve sustainable growth, maintain authenticity, and stay competitive in diverse global markets.engExpansionGrowthGlobalizationMarketsEntryInternationalCross-borderForeign investmentGlobal reachExportLegacyCraftsmanshipArtisanalTraditionCulturalHeritageAuthenticityPreservationStrategyOpportunitiesCompetitivenessPositioningDevelopmentPartnershipsInvestmentsField lab on internationalization – market and competitiveness strategies for balancing tradition and strategic growthmaster thesis203992113
