Due to COVID-19, the global health crisis has had an unprecedented effect on the tourism industry. Academics and politicians are asked to point out solutions that will help people and the economy mitigate such a bad impact. This paper aims to answer the following research questions: (i) How the pandemic caused by COVID-19 was treated by tourism e/m-commerce companies, (ii) What kind of information is available on social media about COVID-19, (iii) What economic and financial information can be access on the web regarding these companies. This is an exploratory study based on multiple case-study approaches that combine different methodologies and techniques. The content analysis focuses on two main pillars: COVID-19 related information available in websites and social networks;the economic and financial information available and freely accessible on the web. The results indicate that, in general, companies have strengthened their presence in the digital world. Services that were previously provided face-to-face or in a mixed format, are now exclusively remote. Communication with customers about pandemic awareness, public health care and, especially, procedures to be carried out, were also distributed through digital channels. Financial data of companies with a diversified business portfolio evidence systematic risk, while companies that deal exclusively with tourism business already show expected losses due to their exposure to specific risk, expected for the tourism sector.

The internationalization of business coupled with globalization has made it necessary for farmers to develop and utilize export market success strategy in a competitive and often chaotic business environments. Exporting is the most popular foreign entry strategy and can become an international learning experience. Since exporting is a risky venture, it is prudent that exporters fully orient their businesses by collecting export market intelligence. Export markets are complicated by the fact that the market environments are dynamic and disruptive in terms of preferences, demand, regulations and other aspects. This study sought to determine the effect of export strategy on the performance of Kenya large export manufacturing firms in Kenya. The study was a cross-sectional survey. The target population was 60 large Kenyan export manufacturing firms which formed the unit of analysis. A questionnaire was used to collect the primary data. Respondents were the company chief executive officer and the head of marketing from each of the firms under study. An average response rate of 96.55% was achieved. The research which adopted both inferential and descriptive statistics used statistical package for social sciences to perform regression and correlation analysis. The findings revealed that the influence of direct exporting on firm performance of large export manufacturing firms in Kenya is significant. The study recommended that on improving export performance (either export sales or export ratio) the export firms should engage on collection of more foreign information and co-operation for the international activities. The study further recommended that large export manufacturing firms’ managers prioritize direct and active engagement with key players in both the export market and the domestic market.
