Abstract

UNIQLO's localization strategy is a crucial aspect of its global market expansion. Throughout its brand development, UNIQLO has consistently adhered to the philosophy of providing consumers with high-quality yet cost-effective clothing products. UNIQLO also consistently innovates and develops its brand concept based on market trends and consumer needs. "Made For All" was proposed in the early stages of brand development, aiming to create clothing products that are universally suitable for everyone. Meanwhile, "Life Wear" is a brand concept introduced by UNIQLO in recent years. This article takes the Macao market as an example, starting from these two brand concepts, and analyzes the relationship between UNIQLO's brand concept and its localization strategy through literature analysis. Through analysis, it can be concluded that the brand concept serves as the development guideline for the localization strategy, while the localization strategy is an important means for enterprises to realize their brand concept in global deployment. The two complement each other, jointly promoting the internationalization of enterprises and their global expansion.
