INTRODUCTION TO RETAIL INDUSTRY

The India Retail Industry is the largest among all the industries, accounting for

over 10 per cent of the countrys GDP and around 8 per cent of the employment.

The Retail Industry in India has come forth as one of the most dynamic and fast

paced industries with several players entering the market. But all of them have not

yet tasted success because of the heavy initial investments that are required to

break even with other companies and compete with them. The India Retail Industry

is gradually inching its way towards becoming the next boom industry.

The total concept and idea of shopping has undergone an attention drawing change

in terms of format and consumer buying behavior, ushering in a revolution in

shopping in India. Modern retailing has entered into the Retail market in India as is

observed in the form of bustling shopping centers, multi-storied malls and the huge

complexes that offer shopping, entertainment and food all under one roof.

A large young working population with median age of 24 years, nuclear families inurban areas, along with increasing workingwomen population and emerging

opportunities in the services sector are going to be the key factors in the growth of

the organized Retail sector in India. The growth pattern in organized retailing and

in the consumption made by the Indian population will follow a rising graph

helping the newer businessmen to enter the India Retail Industry.

In India the vast middle class and its almost untapped retail industry are the key

attractive forces for global retail giants wanting to enter into newer markets, which

in turn will help the India Retail Industry to grow faster. Indian retail is expected to

grow 25 per cent annually. Modern retail in India could be worth US$ 175-200

billion by 2016. The Food Retail Industry in India dominates the shopping basket.

The Mobile phone Retail Industry in India is already a US$ 16.7 billion business,

growing at over 20 per cent per year. The future of the India Retail Industry looks

promising with the growing of the market, with the government policies becoming

more favorable and the emerging technologies facilitating operations.

STRUCTURE OF RETAIL BRANDS

The retail industry in India is highly fragmented and unorganised. Earlier on

retailing in India was mostly done through family-owned small stores withlimited merchandise, popularly known as kirana or mom-and-pop stores. In those

times, food and grocery were shopped from clusters of open kiosks and stalls

called mandis. There were also occasional fairs and festivals where people went

to shop. In the twentieth century, infusion of western concepts brought about

changes in the structure of retailing. There were some traditional retail chains like

Nilgiri and Akbarallys that were set up on the lines of western retail concepts of

supermarkets. The government set up the public distribution system (PDS) outlets

to sell subsidised food and started the Khadi Gram Udyog to sell clothes made of

cotton fabric. During this time, high streets like Linking Road and Fashion Street

emerged in Mumbai. Some manufacturers like Bombay Dyeing started forward

integrating to sell their own merchandise. Shopping centres or complex came into

existence, which was a primitive form of todays malls.

Since liberalisation in early 1990s, many Indian players like Shoppers Stop,

Pantaloon Retail India Ltd (PRIL), Spencer Retail ventured into the organised

retail sector and have grown by many folds since then. These were the pioneers of

the organised Indian retail formats. With the opening up of foreign direct

investment in single-brand retail and cashand-carry formats, a new chapter

unfolded in the retail space. Many single-brand retailers like Louis Vuitton and

Tommy Hilfiger took advantage of this opportunity. The cash-and-carry format

has proved to be an entry route for global multichannel retailing giants like

Metro, Wal-Mart and Tesco.


12/26

WHOLESALERS VS RETAILERS

Services provided by the wholesalers to the manufacturers:-

They place orders for the product in advance on the basis of expectationsregarding the demand for the product. This enables the manufacturer to plan his

production and secure the economies of scale.

They may also provide transportation facility by carrying goods from producers togodowns and then to retailers.

They perform advertising and sales promotion activities and also employ expertsales representatives for the purpose.

They provide financial accommodation to manufacturers in the form of cashpayments for goods purchased from them as well as provide credit to them.

They keep the manufacturers updated on the changes in customers' habits, tastes,preferences and fashion.

They also play an important role in fixation of the final prices of the goods.

Services provided by the wholesalers to the retailers:-

They act as the retailers 'buying agent' and saves them from the trouble ofsearching out and assembling goods from several manufacturers.

They inform the retailers about the new products, its uses and changes in theirprices. They also assist the retailers in advertising and selling of the products.

They provide financial assistance to retailers, sell goods on credit to retailers andthus help them to operate with small working capital.

A wholesaler being the ware-house keeper of the market, they protect the retailersfrom the risk of loss arising from holding large stocks of the product.

They may also sort out different grades of products according to quality and packthe goods into small lots for the retailers.

ENVIRONMENT ASPECT

Retailers can play an important role in ensuring that greener products meet their

potential. By providing greener products, your business will be joining manyAmerican companies who are not only helping improve human health and the

environment, but also gaining a crucial competitive edge as "greener consumption"

increases worldwide. Product and packaging designers, as well as marketing and

merchandizing experts can all play a role in creating a more sustainable supply

chain. By optimizing product design, leveraging your buying power, and working

with your supply chain, you can increase the availability of greener products in a

wide range of product categories.

BENEFITS

Retailers that work with their product supplier partners to offer greener products

experience a range of benefits:

New revenue opportunities by catering to new and growing consumersegments

Improved ability to meet environmental goals Improved product safety and reliability risk Cost reductions through increased energy and material efficiency Improved worker safety and health Increased options and sales of environmentally preferable products Improved options for post-consumer recovery of product and packaging

materials


14/26

PACKAGING DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS

Although packaging often has a smaller environmental impact than the

products they contain, the aggregate impact of packaging is still significantand should be addressed. Product (or packaging) manufacturers can reduce

the environmental impacts of their packaging by:

1.Evaluating the need for the package2.Designing a package so that a minimum amount of material fulfills

the functional requirements. By reducing the quantity of raw

materials used in the packaging, you can minimize its

environmental and economic footprint.

3. Increasing the recycled content of the packaging materials.4.Eliminating toxic constituents. Ensure that all the additives,

adhesives, coatings, and inks that get added to the package are safe

for human health and the environment.5.Using packaging materials that can be recycled or composted once

they have served their original purpose. Design your package so all

components can be easily taken apart and recovered.

6.Supporting materials recovery and recycling. Educate yourconsumers on what they can do with your package once they no

longer need it.

Resources: The Sustainable Packaging Coalition , supported by EPA, also

provides information and guidance on improving the environmental

impacts of packaging.

An Analytical study of the development of

Retail marketing in India

THE PROCESS OF STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT

A process in management is defined as a perceptible flow of information through

interrelated stages of analysis directed towards the achievement of an aim. There are four

basic elements in the process of strategic management;

Environmental scanning Strategy formulation Strategy implementation Evaluation & control

Environmental scanning:

It involves monitoring the environment, & evaluating & disseminating

information obtained from the internal & external environments. The aim of this is to

identify the strategic factors that may determine the future of the firm. An organization

derive several benefits from environmental scanning including the development of a

common perception, identification of strengths & weaknesses, an understanding of

trends & conditions, & optimum utilization of internal & external information.

SWOT analysis is the most commonly used technique for environmental

scanning. SWOT is an acronym for the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities & threats

faced by a firm. Strengths & weaknesses are within the control of the top management

in the long run. Opportunities & threats are external factors that are outside the control

of the organization. The key strengths of the firm become the core competencies that the

organization can use to gain competitive advantage.


16/26

ENVIRONMENTAL SCANNING FOR

INTERNAL SCANNING

The SWOT analysis of Big Bazaar is as follows:

Strengths:

The strengths of Big Bazaar are it is leading and growing at the fasterpace.

It has many outlets all over India. It has a good customer base. They launched Big-Bazaar a hypermarket with over 1, 70,000

products as the first offering in value retailing segment. Products are

cheaper than the market price by as much as 5 to 60%.

Apparels are cheaper by 25 to 60% while the price difference on theother products varies between 5 to 20%.

The Big-Bazaar has been positioned to the customer as a place wherethe customer can shop for each & everything for which if goes to a

market.

Weakness:

Big Bazaar has not yet trapped the whole market. Facing problems due to political environment

Opportunities

Huge untapped marketThreats


17/26

Competition from organized retail players which are in market andemerging like Reliance, shoppers stop, Wal-Mart

Competition from local retailers.EXTERNAL ENVIRONMENTAL SCANNING

Before Big Bazaar coming to India their strategy was to scan the

environment & find the location where the Mall should be situated. It will

also use various tools such as surveys for getting the preferences of big

bazaar. We got the opinion that Big Bazaar sustain in the market or not,

where it is situated. For gaining the opinions from the local people they

will prepare the questionnaire and get it filled from the people. Then they

will form a focus group for getting more and more of information. They

can also adopt open forum strategy for environmental scanning. For that

purpose we have prepared a questionnaire and collected the data.

Analysis of political and legal factors:

In India there is a political triangle this consist of the municipal

corporation which belongs to Indira congress, the other is MLA which

belongs to Shivsena and BJP and MP which belongs to the national

congress. The congress political people are having contacts with common

people and not much concerned with merchants but contradictory to this

that the BJP and Shivsena they are having more concern about merchants

of the city. As Municipal Corporation is in the hands of congress party and


18/26

they are ready to have big bazaar in India that is the reason they are ready

to provide some kind of perks to big bazaar they are as follows:

Subsidy from octroi, different taxes like land tax and water tax Help in taking over properties and real estate Some concessions from labor laws

Socio-cultural factors:

Now a days in India also proportion of working womens is

increasing and the literacy rate has also increased this will lead intoincrease in standard of living of people. As people are aware about western

culture through various Medias they are very much eager to follow the

western culture. People from talukas are coming to India as it is a district

place for shopping, taking education, for working etc. this also creates

demand. There is a majority of middleclass people in India and it is a most

populated district consisting 13 talukas. The major communities in India

city are Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Jain, Sindhi and Punjabi.

Economic environment:

As this district is having 13 talukas and most of them are having

good agricultural base which ultimately leads to higher seasonal income.

Another one is that most of the people who are residing in India they are

engaged in various jobs and businesses they is the part of regular income

group. So this will lead to higher purchasing power and a huge potential

market. One more advantage to big bazaar coming to India is availability of

cheap labor.

From the external analysis we came to know that the people residing

the India city are in the favor of Big Bazaar coming to India. The location

preferred by them is Savedi as it is highly developed and accessible area to

all the people.

The Organized Retail Sector Can Be Further Subdivided Into:


20/26

INSTORE RETAILERS

This type of retail format is also known as the brick and mortar format. These retail

stores are in the form of fixed point sale outlets. They are specially designed to lure

the customers. There are different types of stores through which the instore

retailers operate.

RETAIL FORMATS IN INDIA

The retail formats in India can be categorized into the traditional and the modern

forms. The traditional format includes Karanas, street markets, kiosks and

multiple brand stores.

The modern format, on the other hand includes supermarkets, hypermarkets,

department stores and specialty chains.

In discussing about the structure of the retail sector in India we cannot forgo

forecourt retailing and trade parks.

TRADE PARKS

Trade parks are basically business complexes that promote international trade. The

global players here have access to the top Indian exporters. To the buyers this

would prove to be a boon since they do not have travel to far off towns to enter

into business deals with the exporters, especially in places where infrastructure is

very poor. By this the exporters not only enhance their visibility but they also

enjoy a host of other advantages. They can design libraries, studio etc, in order toattract potential customers.

ANALYSIS OF THE SITUATION


21/26

India is standing in the threshold of a retail revolution. The Indian consumer

class consists of a 300 million strong bourgeoning middle-class, expected to grow

to 600 million by 2010. Overall economic growth and increasing disposable

incomes have boosted double-digit growth in consumer spending, enabling retail

sales o grow by 50-100% in 2006.

According to the India Retail Report 2007, total private consumption reached INR

20,000 billion at current prices in 2006. The share of organized retail stood at 4.6

per cent of the total Indian Retail Value of INR 12,000 billion ($270 billion).

However, the organized sector is expected to grow at 35-40% in the next few years

as compared to overall retail growth of 7-8%. The potential for introducing

international brands, ability to make huge capital investment and ease of setting

shop in India is luring foreign players to the industry. Thus, the retail sector will

experience an influx of international retail models and quality outlets in the coming

few years.

Descri ption of the concept

Manufacturers can look at the following alternatives to increase sales volume:

1) Sales promotion and advertising in malls

Most supermarkets and hypermarkets promote in-house offers to attract customers.

They also spend a lot on visual display of promotions. These costs can be shared

by the company, thus increasing their stake in the sales of the mall.

a) Retail outlets will be supportive of sales promotion and advertising by

companies inside malls for two reasons:

- it increases sales of the entire category as such

- it reduces burden on malls to attract/educate consumers towards particular

products.


22/26

For the FMCG companies, return on advertising in terms of increased sales (or

market share) will be more pronounced due to point-of-purchase promotion.

b) Manufacturers can share costs of advertising and make sections of the store

more attractive in return for slightly lower margins to the retailers. They can set up

small kiosks or shelves to display their own products. This involvement of the

company in the operation of the mall will also help build a strategic relationship

between the two.

2) Use malls to target niche segments

Malls and supermarkets typically attract the middle and upper-middle class

consumers who have considerable spending power as well as brand awareness.

Thus manufacturers can use this channel effectively to launch specific variants of

existing products or niche products for which they are able to Concept Paper

Indian Institute of Management Ahmadabad attract a premium from such

consumers. These products should be launched exclusively in the malls and not

through Kirana stores. The presence of a larger product range will increase the

attractiveness of shopping at a mall for the consumer, making it a win-win

situation for both.

Indias retail market is at its pinnacle and is drawing huge attention from both

global and local retailers.

Reasons for Indias high growth rate in the retail sector are:

High growth rates- Indias GDP is projected to grow by more than 8 percent in

fiscal year 2008; projections for 2009 are a more modest at about 7 percent

Untapped growth potential- Organized retail, which still accounts for less than 5

percent of the market is expected to grow at a compound annual growth rate

(CAGR) of 40 percent to $107 billion by 2013. Indias overall retail sector is

expected to rise to $833 billion by 2013 and to $1.3 trillion by 2018, at a CAGR of

10 percent.


23/26

Growing Purchasing Power- Consumer spending is on a sharp rise. In the last

four years the consumer spending has grew by astounding 75 percent. This can be

attributed to the significant rise in the disposable incomes of Indias young

population. It has to be noted that more than 33 percent of Indian population is

below the age of 15.

BENEFITS OF RETAILING


24/26

Retailers play a major role in the transfer of goods and services from the

manufactures to the end users. In this process retailer delivers many benefits to

customers, manufactures, wholesalers, and the economy.

Benefits to customers

Retailers act as a buying agent for consumers. They perform various business

activities that increase the value of the goods and the service they sell to the end

users. As buying agents a retailer performs various activities to satisfy the end

consumers. These activities include

1. Breaking bulk2. Providing assortment3. Holding inventory4. Providing after sales services5. Providing information


25/26

Benefits to Manufactures and wholesalers

Manufactures and wholesalers consider retailing as a channel for delivering

their product /services to the end consumer. By selling services retailers provide

the manufactures great revenue, which could be reinvested in production. Thus

retailers play major role in smoothing out the variation between the production and

sales of the manufactures product.

Benefits to the economy

The retailing business is the largest privet industry in the world with

turnover of US $6.6 trillion. Retailing plays a crucial role in the management of

world economy and retailers constitute a tenth of the fortune 500 companies. In

INDIA retailing accounts for over 10% GDP and around 8% of the employment

only next to the agriculture industry.


26/26

CONCLUSION

The retail sector has played a phenomenal role throughout the world in

increasing productivity of consumer goods and services. It is also the

second largest industry in US in terms of numbers of employees and

establishments. There is no denying the fact that most of the developed

economies are very much relying on their retail sector as a locomotive of

growth. The India Retail Industry is the largest among all the industries,

accounting for over 10 per cent of the countrys GDP and around 8 percent of the employment. The Retail Industry in India has come forth as

one of the most dynamic and fast paced industries with several players

entering the market. But all of them have not yet tasted success because

of the heavy initial investments that are required to break even with

other companies and compete with them. The India Retail Industry is

gradually inching its way towards becoming the next boom industry.

For launching Big bazaar in India city is companys mission to

expand the business. For this purpose company is carrying out many

marketing strategy. To study this marketing strategy I will be visiting the

mall and also the manager to collect the data from them. Also Ill be

collecting data from the customer as what strategies they liked.
