International firms enter foreign markets for a number of reasons, all of which are linked to the desire to either increase profits and sales or protect them from being eroded by competition. .
Hotel owners and managers are always under pressure to increase the profits of their hotels, and when they face a mature, saturated market at home, they begin to search for new markets outside their home country.
