Hello, I am giving you an example:
Just say I am selling some brand's products in my country, but this brand is from another country.
So for example brand name is Pelton and this brand is from China. So I have a website domain with my country prefix e.g. Pelton . de
My Facebook page is Pelton Germany . So people know this product is sold locally that's why I decided to make Pelton Germany on Facebook.
The question would be should I register another domain as well Peltongermany . de and redirect it to pelton . de ? I mean should I have all possible domain versions with my current business idea?

Thanks if need more information I can explain more. Btw the names are not real just for example purpose.
 
first of all you might want to contact Pelton and ask them if they allow you to piggyback on their brand, because most companies don't like it and they might sue you.

If they're OK with it then yeah, you can do that redirect thingy, but if they say "no" I wouldn't risk it :)

Yes they are fine with this. Most of europe resellers using their brand name as domain with their country prefix.
Thanks for your opininion.
