As there is more and more organized reatil sector coming into India these days, and because the government has given more power to this sector by allowing More FDI inflows, this has really boosted the organized retail sector in a big way which may dampen the unorganized retail outlets, but then people are more inclined towards the Provison store or a local shop which is nearby their house rather than the big retail outlets.. So what are the factors that you think that will be necessary to improve the scenario for the organized retail sector??, which has a very less share in terms of percentage as compared to unoragnized sector which is a dominant force in the country.......

Understanding the Customer

idea posted by Vijay Sharma Logistics Manager, Reliance retail
According to me, The malls which have opened up in a big way in the country has a additional option for the customers, with so many choices to make the percentage of footfalls to billings is far more greater than the normal provison store as such, Just because there is variety and different range of products available at one place, so this makes the customers life more easier. And understanding the customer in the sense why they go to the normal Mom and pop store, in India for the sales to occur price is the main key driver in both the industry, So understanding Customer should be the main Priority for the Organized retail sector to boom.

Parternering with suppliers

idea posted by Sudhansu Jena Logistics Manager, Target

 In old days and even now the supply is through the medium of distributors and wholesalers across the country, partnering directly with the manufacturers for the supply will be good, this will make sure there is good relationship with the manufacturer and the retailer who sells the product for you, and this will reduce the cost as you will be eliminating the distributor and wholesaler. Another added advantage with this sort of partnership is the manufacturers will come to know directly like what are the customer behaviour, buying trends, combo-sales,discount structures and Mainly the brand preferences, which i think it will be more valuable to manufacturer than any other. So the trend will be where Powerful retail houses will be dominating in the manufacturers decision on what to do and what not to...

So boss this is a huge factor for the sector to boom according to me
