The Chinese luxury market, with its extremely dynamic nature, provides a strong insight for the application of the dynamic business strategy theory. Relatively, by using a dynamic market view to apply the Porter's generic strategies, the dissertation aims to provide a detailed business strategic plan for Mantero Company.
