1.1 INTRODUCTION Retail industry provides immense opportunities to entrepreneurs and workforce as sales
people and clerks, the industry also has opportunities for people interested in determining
what goods will be sold, getting these goods to the right place at the right time, and
managing the operations, finances, and administrations of retails companies. Retailing is
such a common part of our everyday lives that we often just take it for granted. Retail
managers make complex decisions in selecting their target markets and retail locations;
determining what merchandise and services to offers; negotiating with suppliers;
distributing merchandise to stores; training and motivating sales associates; and deciding
how to price, promote, and present merchandise. Considerable skill and knowledge are
required to make these decisions effectively. Working in this highly competitive, rapidly
changing environment is both challenging and exciting, and it offers significant financial
rewards. The distribution of finished products begins with the producer and ends at the
ultimate consumer. Between the two of them there is a middle person – the Retailer.
Retailing is defined as a set activities or sell a products or a service to consumers for
their personal or family use. It is responsible for matching individual demands of the
consumer with supplies of all the manufacturers. The word “RETAIL” is derived from
the French word Retaillier, meaning “ to cut a piece of ” or “ to break bulk. ” of t en

people think of retailing only as the sale of products in the stores, but retailing also
involves the sale of services such as overnight loading in a motel, a haircut, a DVD
rental, or a home-delivered pizza. Not all retailing is done in stores. Examples of non-
store retailing in products sales are Flipkart.com, Amazon.com, Snapdeal.com, etc. and
for services Bookmyshow.com, Redbus.com, Justdeal.com, cartrade.com etc.
The world over retail business is dominated by small family-run chains and regionally
targeted store. Gradually more and more markets in the western world are being taken
over by billion-dollar multinational conglomerates, such as Wal-Mart, Sears,
McDonald’s, marks and Spencer, etc. The larger retailer have set up huge
supply/distribution chain, inventory, management systems, financing pacts, and wide-
scale marketing plans which allowed them to provide better services at competitive
prices by achieving economies of scale. In an era of globalization, liberalization, and a
highly aware customer, a retailer is required to make a conscious effort to positon himself
distinctively to face the competition. This is determined to a great extent by the retail mix
strategy followed by a company to sell its products.
1.2 Retail Industry in India: In India, the retail sector is the second largest employer after agriculture. It is highly
fragmented and consists predominantly of small, independent, and owned- managed
shops. Besides, the country is also dotted with low-cost kiosks and pushcarts. There are
some 12 million retail outlets of which nearly 5 million sell food and related products.
Valued at US$511 billion according to leading commercial real estate advisor, C.B.
Richard Ellis’ finding in 2008, the Indian retail market is the fifth largest retail
destination globally. More and more players are venturing into the retail business with
new and attractive formats, such as malls, supermarkets, discount stores, departmental
stores, transforming altogether the traditional bookstores, chemist shops, and furnishing
stores. According to industry estimates, the Indian retail market is estimated to grow from
US$330 billion in 2007 to US$ 427 billion by 2010 and US$637 billion in 2015.
Simultaneously, organized retail which at present accounts for 4 percent of the total
market is likely to increase its share to 22 percent by 2015. The 30 million sq. ft. of
available mall space in India at present is expected to increase to 100 million sq. ft. by
2010, estimates that the number of operational malls will more than double to over 412
with 205 million sq. ft. by 2013, and further 715 malls by 2015 on the back of major
retail developments ever in tier II and tier III cities. At presents 40 percent of malls are
concentrated in the smaller cities.
1.3 The SERVQUAL Model: A customer will be satisfied only when his/her expectations will be met, so in the year
1988 Parasuraman’s et al developed a model to measure the expectation towards any
service, which is named as a SERVQUAL model. In the context of retail service the
model is based on following five dimensions:-
1. Reliability dimension is concerned with the store’s ability to perform the service accurately and dependably.
2. Responsiveness dimension is related with the employees’ willingness to help customers
and provide prompt services.

3. Assurance dimension includes Employees’ knowledge, courtesy and their ab ility to inspire trust and confidence.
4. Empathy dimension is related with Caring, individualized attention given to customers or
the ease of access, approachability and effort taken to understand customers’
requirements.
5. Tangibles dimension is all about the appearance of the physical facilities and material relayed at retail outlet.
The difference between the customer’s expectation & satisfactions helps retailer to improve the service which enhances the customers’ satisfaction.
1.4 Big Bazaar:
Big Bazaar is the largest hypermarket chain in India. Mr. Kishore Biyani as its group
CEO and MD, headquartered in Mumbai. Big Bazaar was launched in September, 2001.
With opening of its first four stores in Kolkata, Indore, Bangalore, and Hyderabad.
Currently, there are 214 stores across 90 cities and town in India covering around 16
million sq. ft. of retail space. Big bazaar was launched mainly as a fashion format selling
apparel, cosmetics, accessories and general merchandise. Over the years, the retail chain
has included in its portfolio a wide range of products and services, ranging from grocery
to electronics. In Bangalore city alone, there are 12 branches. Moreover, the customer
friendly ambience and the organized retailing of products also make Big Bazaar one of
the successful retail companies in India. It offers all time discounts and promotional
avenues to its customers.
2.0 REVIEW OF LITERATURES
Dr. Jay Prakash Verma (Jan-2015) found that in Consumer Behaviour for Organized
Retail: A Case Study of Big Bazaar, rise in income of the consumers along with the effect
of modern culture the purchasing power of the people has increased. Shopping has
become more and entertainment than a utility aspect for people. It also reflects that
occupation and income of the consumers has greater impact on the frequent visit of them
to organized retail outlets like big bazaar. Apart from store ambience features like
service, cost and availability of products drag the interest of the consumers that induce
the preference to shop at big bazaar.
Dharmesh Motwani (2014) conclude that (in An Empirical Study of Customer
Expectation and Perception in Organized Retail sector) Service quality is an important
aspect for retailers to know about customers’ satisfaction & SERVQUAL model is the
root way to measure the effectiveness of service quality. In this paper gap has been
identified between expectation & perception of customers towards the organized retail
outlets of Udaipur, which revealed dissatisfaction among customers.
Prof Vineeta Gangal (April 2013) conclude that (in Big Bazaar: A Study of Consumer
Behaviour towards Organized Retail) Big Bazaar is preferred by its patrons for its pricing
strategies followed by variety. One of the major reasons for this is the high proportion of
students and youngsters who are dependent on their parents for their incomes. Big Bazaar
and their close competitors would be maintain status quo on pricing and increase variety
of products, especially in the clothing and food & grocery department, because that is
where the highest amount of sales are happening.”

U. Dineshkumar, P.Vikkraman (2012) found in their study that “organized retail outlets
provide better quality of service, product range as compared to the unorganized retail
outlets. Most of the customers are satisfied with the quality of service provided by the
organized retail outlets.”
Kumar.R & Barani (2012) said that “service quality has long been accepted as the most
basic marketing tool for retailers to differentia te their retail offers, create competitive
advantage and to enhance the customers’ shopping experience. Nonetheless, maintaining
excellent service quality within the stores is no simple task”
Azhagan & Nagarajan (2011) analysed that “most of the customers prefer Organized
Retail sector because of more Tangibles and Empathy towards its customers. In order to
retain and attract new customers, the organized retail sector should improve customer’s
service level and should provide assurance towards its customer.”

5.0 SUGGESTIONS
The Big Bazaar store of Baroda can take following actions to improve the Satisfaction
level of the customers.
Employees are not willing to help customers, and courtesy to provide promised services,
it is advised to train them to make them positive in their attitude towards customers.
Employees of the store should try to give personal attention to customers.
Availability of physical facilities should be improved.
Big Bazaar store should provide large parking space for its customers so that they can
easily park their vehicles. The parking place nowadays is most attractive element.
6.0 CONCLUSION Customer satisfaction is secret code for the success in business, therefore in this study the
researcher analyses satisfaction level of each dimension. Thus, though customer
satisfaction does not guarantee repurchase on the part of the customers but still it plays a
very important part in ensuring customer loyalty and retention. Therefore, organizations
should always strive to ensure that their customers are very satisfied. And this study it is
founded that the customers are not satisfied as customers expected. In this paper the gap
has been identified between expectation and satisfaction towards Big Bazaar store. The
gap can be easily removed by improving the service quality.
