Some companies have very successful products in the country they belong to, but when they export the product to another country these products ae not very popular for different reasons.
For example, an American golf ball manufacturer launched their products in Japan packed in boxes of four. The company had to change the pack size because in Japan the number 4 is pronounced as death and it is related to bad luck.
A bread seller company named its product Bimbo, sellings were good in Spain but this brand would have problems if selling in english speaking countries. For those of you who are not native english speakers, the word bimbo is used to refer to an atractive but unintelligent women in a derogatory way.
