    Euso Disney Stakeholders

    Euro Disney S.C.A is a French public company that owns the well-known Euro Disneyland Paris. I have chosen to study this company because it was the subject of many controversies .The French society considers that by encouraging the American brand ``Walt Disney`` will unfortunately lead to `cultural imperialism`. French media and labor unions mounted protests against ``Walt Disney`` because the American managers tried to enforce specific rules without taking into consideration cultural differences. A journalist in the French newspaper ``Le Figaro`` wrote, “I wish with all my heart that the rebels would set fire to Euro Disneyland."[i] It is not easy at all to import a brand especially when USA and France have different cultural and economical backgrounds, codes, regulations and laws. I find it challenging to understand how Euro Disney S.C.A succeeded to pursue its goal and what assurances they gave to its stakeholders as the environment becomes more and more volatile.…

    Case 2.1: EuroDisney

    1. There are many factors that contributed to EuroDisney's failure in its first year. One of the main issues was the hotel rooms surrounding the new park were outrageously expensive. Staying overnight was out of the question for most visitors. What really shocked the Disney Company was that the French stayed away. They were put off by 'American imperialism' and the fact that this new park would be alcohol free. This proved detrimental because the French are the world's biggest comsumers of wine. To them, a meal without wine was unthinkable. EuroDisney managers accidently pushed away important members of French society, including members of the government, the banks, and the ad agencies. The Disney Company also failed to foresee the looming European recession. The Gulf War in 1991 also played a factor in the failure of EuroDisney.…

Nowadays, the competition has become more aggressive, rapidly changing consumer behaviour, consumers with more choices than ever before. Unlike many community banks and credit unions are manage with the challenges of limited marketing budgets and the issues of the customer loyalty, this method is not as effective as in ideal, because it may be the fact that has been combined in the past.

    Name a child or an adult who does not want to go to Disneyland at least once in their lives and you'd end up empty-handed. Disneyland is a known attraction for families, couples, friends and of course children and there's no denying that it rightfully deserved the reputation that it got now. Disneyland Paris which opened in 1992, is located 32 kilometers from the French capital and is comprised of two Disney theme parks, Disneyland Park and Walt Disney Studios Park.…

    First, Euro Disney’s poor performance due to the management lacked on understanding of the cultural difference between two nations. Disney goes (very deep) into the American consciousness, its themes were chosen to appeal to a wide variety of American interests and tastes, its parks were filled with images of American culture, and its cartoon characters had become staples of the American youth experience. In conclusion, Disney is too "Americanized." Although Euro Disney did some work to adapt, it is not good enough to convince consumers. After all, since Paris is the culture capital of Europe, French think their culture being deserved more respect.…
