During the middle of this year, the world became a more unstable place, one less friendly to U.S. and Canadian firms doing business. At the end of July, Argentina declared bankruptcy. The Palestinians and Israelis are fighting again. Russia is destabilizing (to put it mildly) Ukraine. Then there’s Afghanistan, Iraq and Iran.
Is this a good time to invest in overseas markets?
Past Top 100 reports have chronicled the ambitions of domestic food and beverage processors to expand or buy firms overseas. As we look at the past year’s mergers and acquisitions, we see a trend toward “buying American” and growing horizontally, broadening the portfolio, maybe even transforming the company, rather than establishing a beachhead in some far-off land.
