Points, taken care of
• 1. The Indian customer, who shops at air-conditioned stores, does
not run her family’s grocery needs on a tight budget. While
supermarket customers are, by and large, well-to-do people, yet
everyone wants to save money. People with money buy more, to
achieve higher savings. DMart’s pricing is designed for the customers
to save more across everything she buys. However, those who buy
bigger packs save even more. It’s as simple as that! The merchandise
department of DMart, its buyers, act more like agents of the
customer and not of the company. This is in line with Sam Walton’s
description of his merchandise department. If the buyers buy better,
they can sell cheaper.
• 2. Store employees or associates are first generation retail workers
in India. Self-service retail is still in its early stages of evolution.
Combine this with the fact that culturally, in India, service and
servitude have often been treated as one and the same, and it
becomes obvious that introducing a service-oriented format in our
country is a mammoth task. Workers and servers in all walks of life
come from a different class and socio-economic background than the
people they serve.
• 3. Vendors, who deliver goods and get paid by retailers, are small
and medium traders, micro-entrepreneurs, by a vast majority. Even
when supermarkets buy goods made by reputed MNCs, the real last-
mile seller is often a distributor named Agarwal & Sons, for example.
Small traders in India, as a rule, are always short on capital and
perpetually stressed about their working capital situation. DMart
decided to be a market beater by paying faster than market norms to
its vendors.
