Positioning in an emerging market: YOUR OFFICE IN LAGOS AND NIGERIA.
REPRESENTATIVE OFFICE CONCEPT.
Definition: A Representative Office is an office established by a company to conduct marketing and other non-transactional operations, generally in a foreign country where a branch office or subsidiary is not warranted.
