Abstract

Due to the constant changes of companies' global networks, the expansion of global e-commerce as well as the market-oriented global supply chain management, global enterprises are strategically selecting and entering into viable countries able to become global footholds. Therefore, this study aims to scrutinize the trend of changes in the global networks of Korean companies by analyzing the current overseas countries over the past decade. From the analysis, it has been found that there is a significant difference in the priorities of targeting countries among shipping, manufacturing and logistics companies. Logistics companies preferred to enter Germany first while they attached to a lower priority to Singapore. Manufacturing companies had a lower priority to advance to India, while they preferred to advance to Mexico; however, shipping companies were analyzed to prefer to enter the US. In addition, all of these companies identified the importance of securing volume and network by entering overseas markets to achieve economies of scale and scope and to maintain global competitiveness. Joint overseas expansion of manufacturers with shipping and logistics companies can be recommended to facilitate the entry and thus, enhance global competitiveness and service capabilities and also secure new growth engines.

기업의 글로벌 네트워크는 지속적으로 변화하는 양상을 보이고 있으며, 국제 전자상거래의 확대 및 마켓 중심 글로벌 공급사슬관리(GSCM) 변화로 글로벌 거점으로 성장될 수 있는 국가를 전략적으로 선정하여 진출하고 있는 상황이다. 본 연구의 목적은 지난 10년간 우리나라 기업의 해외진출 국가현황 분석을 통해 우리나라 기업의 글로벌 네트워크 변화의 추이를 분석하여 우리나라 기업의 입장에서 중요한 해외진출 대상국가를 제시하고, 우리나라 제조 물류기업을 중심으로 해외 진출 대상 국가의 차이를 분석하여 기업간 시너지 효과를 만들 수 있는 전략을 제시하는 것이다. 제조 물류 기업별 진출희망 국가간의 우선순위는 차이는 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 물류회사는 독일에 진출하는 것을 가장 우선적으로 희망하였으며, 제조기업은 멕시코에 진출하는 것을 선호하였다. 국내 제조 물류 관련 기업은 규모의 경제 및 범위의 경제를 달성하고 글로벌 경쟁력 확보를 위해서는 해외시장 진출을 통한 볼륨과 네트워크 확보의 필요성을 인식하고 있으며 제조업체의 니즈를 반영한 해운을 포함한 물류관련 기업의 해외시장 동반 진출은 우리나라 기업의 해외진출을 용이하게 하여 국제경쟁력을 제고할 수 있는 방안이 될 수 있으며, 신 성장동력 확보 및 서비스 역량을 제고할 수 있는 방안이다.
