General MerchandiseNavaras ”Jewellery for all emotions and occasions”

Navaras, a fine 22 carat pure gold and diamond jewellery brand, retailed from Big

Bazaar stores, offers nine unique rational benefits to the consumer namely – BIS

Hallmark jewellery, free cleaning and polishing, insurance cover against theft and

burglary, transparent making charges, a buyback if unsatisfied, 0% weight loss if

jewellery is exchanged, diamond certification, free karatmeter check and a range of

designs.

  

The Navaras product range and store look is in keeping with the needs of

contemporary women. It is emotions and occasions that lead women to buy jewellery,

they buy jewellery to express emotions like pyaar (love), during occasions like

tyohaar (festivals) and as uphaar (gifts). Navaras jewellery has been conceptualised

with this thought - jewellery for all emotions and occasions.

Future Group has revolutionized the Indian jewellery market with the launch of

Navaras, which offers branded, pure and design differentiated jewellery at

competitive prices in a hypermarket set-up in line with the evolving buying behaviour

of consumers. The rationale behind this is that with higher disposable incomes, for

consumers today gold and other jewellery purchases too have become impulsive

buying activities. Hence, Navaras within Big Bazaar.

Babasabpatilfreepptmba.com - 26 -

Page 27: A Project Report on How to increase consumer walk-in, in Big-Bazaar Hubli

“How to increase consumer walk-in, in Big-Bazaar Hubli”.

But, certain criteria still remain constant like carat, price, trust and purity – all strong

deciding factors while purchasing jewellery. Thus, the format’s brand positioning and

offerings have been tailored to suit the modern day consumer.

Navaras offers a complete fine jewellery shopping experience, despite being within

the confines of a hyper market. This is ensured by the segregation of the Navaras

section via glazed glass walls to provide a comfortable and secluded ambience. The

sit-down arrangement, as opposed to stand alone counters, further ensures that

shoppers try out the Navaras products in a peaceful and comfortable environment

before they make their final shopping decision.

LIMITATIONS

The research was conducted in Hubli city only, so analysis and

recommendations may not be applicable to other cities.

Sample size was 200; I feel this small size cannot represent the whole

company.

The study was conducted in Hubli city only, so all the information sought is

restricted to this city only.

Some respondent refused to participate in the survey and that in turn may have

affected the result of the study.
