increase its administrative distance from the other nations.
reduce its cultural distance from the other nations.
Answer: reduce its cultural distance from the other nations
Explanation:
Global companies may have to deal with economic, administrative, and cultural distances apart from the geographic distance while ensuring successful business. Cultural distance is associated with the difference in languages, ethnicities and social norms and geographic distance is associated with physical remoteness. Administrative distance deals with the absence of shared monetary or political association, political hostility, government policies and institutional weakness and economic distance is associated with the difference in consumer incomes and cost and quality of natural resources, infrasturucture etc. Here Titus industries is offering country specific variations of its sites considering the religious and linguistic differences in those countries. Hence they are trying to reduce the cultural distance from other nations.
