Transnational corporations
  • A transnational corporation (TNC) or multinational is a company with branches in more than one country.
  • TNCs increase globalisation by linking together countries through the sales of goods on the one hand and through the production of goods on the other. 
  • This network of economic activities that covers all the steps to produce finished goods is called the supply chain.

Slide 23 - Tekstslide

Slide 24 - Link

Supply chain
The production of goods can be split up in different steps:
- R&D (research and development)
- Manufacturing
- Distribution and sales

TNC's often choose to do some parts of the manufacturing process in other parts of the world e.g. Asia

Slide 25 - Tekstslide

Stages of the supply chain
The supply chains of most goods will go through three different stages: 
  • Raw materials.
  • Intermediate goods.
  • Final goods: these are goods that are directly used by consumers. Most final goods have been manufactured, which means they have been processed in a way. Examples are: sneakers, jeans, T-shirts, smartphones, notebooks, cars and so on.

Offshoring = The relocation of parts of the supply chain from one country to another.

Slide 30 - Tekstslide

International division of labour
- LEDCs: these countries usually deliver most of the raw materials
NICs: Assemblage. These countries often cover most of the manufacturing process (the factory work). Potential sales market
- MEDCs: the headquarters of TNCs, where the R&D, marketing and sales of the products is controlled.
