Abstract: The last four decades have witnessed an exponential increase in firms entering foreign markets. Not surprisingly, there has been a significant amount of research explaining firms’ foreign entry strategies, which has been cited as a critical issue within the context of international marketing. However, while there has been significant growth in outward foreign direct investment (OFDI), there has also been an increasing number of firms which have faced difficulties in their foreign operations and where forced to exit the market. While the topic of firm’s exit decision is important and relevant in today’s dynamic and globalized marketplace, this area of research is still in its infancy. Unsurprisingly, scholars have recently called for more attention to be paid to the firm’s foreign exit decisions.
