Answer to Question 1

E

Answer to Question 2

B
Nike's previous strategy (i.e., using 20 national warehouses) was a global localization (or glocalization) strategy. Because Nike is now focusing on a Belgium warehouse for Europe, it is using a regional standardization strategy. If Nike were to distribute products from Belgium to the entire world, then this could be viewed as a global standardization strategy.
