Note: Greenfield investment refers to a form of foreign direct investment (FDI) where a parent company builds its operations in a foreign country from the ground up. In contrast to brownfield investments, where a company purchases or leases existing facilities to begin new operations, a greenfield investment involves the construction of new factories, the establishment of new production lines, and the creation of new distribution networks.
