Qualitative data on market assessment, promotional strategies, social and political conditions, projected growth rates and market competitiveness were also collected and examined. The approach included an exhaustive examination and review of reports, studies, articles and papers produced by Universities, Research and Consulting Firms and Think Tanks.
