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 17 - Diapositive

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 18 - Diapositive

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.
