Acme (greenfield)

Intro

Acme is presently in the developing stages of launching a Greenfield production facility in foreign markets. The services of this consultant have been retained to contrast the pros and cons of launching such operations into foreign territory and submit a recommending proposal to the steering committee supporting my decision. The proposal will have two alternatives in which one option will consist of a European Union (EU) country (France) and the second alternative will consist of a non European Union country (India).

Background

In 1957 after World War II, the Treaty of Rome was established and implemented creating the European Economic Community (EEC). In the beginning, six European countries was part of the EEC which consisted of Belgium, Germany, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. A year later, the European Community (EC) was formed to foster compromise and trade amongst the participating countries. Again, the countries that were part of the EC were West Germany, Belgium, France, Italy, Luxembourg and the Netherlands. In 1993, the European Union was established by the members of the European Community which now consist of Latvia, the United Kingdom, Austria,
