    You need more than one site.
    You then need to host that site in the relevant country.
    Google sees where you site is hosted and will give priority to those results to that country as it will asume that is your target base.
    You can use google sitemaps to change that location, but only one location per site.

    Even international companies have different sites, hosted in different regions around the world.

    It also depends on your extensions, Google follows the country extensions and allocate according. Unless yours is a dot com for which you can choose the country.
