Abstract

As African countries strive toward economic development, they have had the need to borrow marketing knowhow from the developed countries as part of their tool-bag of development techniques. Although this is commendable, debate persists in the literature as to the applicability/relevance of marketing knowhow in developing countries. To enhance knowledge in the topic area, the authors provide an overview of the role of marketing in developing countries and a conceptual model for empirical research.
