AbstractIn a market economy, the success or failure of the companies depends on how they fulfill consumers' needs and wants. In a fierce competition environment, companies must compete with each other in terms of price, quality, services, technology, innovation, and brand name, etc. To differentiate their products from other competitors', companies often create brand names for their products or their corporate. Therefore, branding has become an essential means for companies to survive and develop in the long te1m. In case of wide product portfolio, "branding" even replaces "marketing" activities. Many companies recognize that branding is the most effective weapon to win consumers' purchasing decision. Indeed, attracting consumers becomes a very difficult task for any company in a highly competitive market. Although a company gets many benefits from its brand name, it is not easy to manage a strong brand. To understand more how a company builds and manages its brand to get the full benefit from it, a study into the case of the LiOA brand at Nhat Linh Co., Ltd., an auto voltage stabilizer (A VS) manufacturer, is undertaken. The case study will focus on analyzing the external market environment, the company internal situation and its brand development and management basing on interviews with the Company managers and its employees. At the same time, a customer survey is caITied out to evaluate what consumers know about LiOA's brand name and products. From the analysis of the survey results, some recommendations for LiOA branding management and communication program will be made to help the Company manage its brand better and to strengthen its LiOA brand name in the AVS market.
