Conclusion• VS even though they have a mass marketing it is
not completely abroad. Like Louis Vuitton they need to consider other emerging countries such as Tunisia.
• On the other hand, even though Louis Vuitton is adopting a niche marketing strategy, they are increasingly trying to expand their target population by manufacturing more “Masstige” products.
