“…Sufficient technological competencies enhance firms to obtain scientific knowledge, leading to upgrade and advance products and processes, yielding new advantages (Rajkovič & Prašnikar, 2009;Stelzer & Brecht, 2011). Local scholars (Mohsen et al, 2011;Ng & Kanagasundaram, 2017;Ratnasingam, 2015) stated that Malaysian SMEs in the woodbased industry have vigorous core activities that enable them to compete in international markets.

“…In recent years this has caused some furniture market manufacturers who had chosen low price strategy before to shift into differentiation strategies in order to gain higher profit margins and preserve their market share to get away from competitive market pressures by focusing on the quality of their own product.

“…Είναι συναφές το να αναφέρουµε ότι οι επιχειρήσεις δεν αναπτύσσονται πλέον σε εξελικτικά στάδια, όσον αφορά στη διεθνοποιητική τους δραστηριότητα (Aspelund et al, 2007, Andersson & Evangelista, 2006, Svensson, 2006 (Jolly et al, 1992), «γεννηµένες διεθνοποιηµένες» (Cavusgil, 1994;Knight and Cavusgil, 1996;Madsen and Servais, 1997;Autio et al, 2000), «ξαναγεννηµένες διεθνοποιηµένες» (Bell et al, 2001) (Porter, 1980).
