Minimizing Trade Barriers (Scenario)
National Appliance Corporation (NAC) needs to build a new manufacturing facility to meet the increasing demand for professional-grade appliances. NAC managers are considering building the facility in Mexico but are hesitant because of the high tariffs involved.

Given the high trade barriers in Mexico, the management of NAC is most likely to consider ________ to be an inappropriate entry strategy.
◦ exporting
◦ FDI
◦ joint ventures
◦ licensing
