THEORIES OF RETAIL EVOLUTION

“’Wheel of Retailing”

A better known theory of retailing “wheel of retailing” proposed by Maclcomb McNair says, 1.

New retailers often enter the market place with low prices, margins, and status. The low prices are usually the result of some innovative cost-cutting procedures and soon attract competitors.

2.

With the passage of time, these businesses strive to broaden their customer base and increase sales. Their operations and facilities increase and become more expensive.

3.

They may move to better up market locations, start carrying higher quality products or add services and ultimately emerge as a high cost price service retailer.

4.

By this time newer competitors as low price, low margin, low status emerge and these competitors too follow the same evolutionary process.

5.

The wheel keeps on turning and department stories, supermarkets, and mass merchandise went through this cycles.

Retail life cycle  Resource constraints and lack of resources

 Integrated communication effort

Functions of a retaillier  From the customer point of view, the retailer serves him by

providing the goods that he needs in the required assortment, at the required place and time.  From an economic standpoint, the role of a retailer is to

provide real added value or utility to the customer. This comes four different perspectives

Arranging Assortment: manufacturers usually make one or a variety of products and would like to sell their entire inventory to few buyers to reduce costs. Final consumers, in contrast prefer a large variety of goods and services to choose from and usually buy them in small units. • Retailers are able to balance the demands of both sides, by collecting an assortment of goods from different sources, buying them in sufficiently large quantities and selling them to consumers in small units 6.

5.

Breaking Bulk: to reduce transportation costs, manufacturer and wholesalers typically ship large cartons of the products, which are then tailored by the retailers into smaller quantities to meet individual consumption needs

6.

Holding stock: Retailers maintain an inventory that allows for instant availability of the product to the consumers. It helps to keep prices stable and enables the manufacture to regulate production.

7.

Promotional support: small manufacturers can use retailers to provide assistance with transport, storage, advertising, and pre- payment of merchandise.
