PANTALOON / FUTURE GROUP : INTRODUCTION
• Pantaloon Retail is the poster child of Indian retailing.
• Over the last four to five years it has established itself as India.s leading
retailer.
•During this period it has straddled product categories and formats across the
retail chain and has moved steadily towards its aim of selling .everything, to
everyone, everywhere..
•Pantaloon Retail has been driven by the vision and dynamism of Kishore
Biyani, its founder and CEO.
• Pantaloon.s management spotted opportunities in organised retailing early
on and was visionary enough to employ a multi-pronged strategy to rapidly
scale up before large corporations and overseas majors entered.

Future Group has been expanding very fast after other large corporates announced their entry into retail (since 2004)
9
PANTALOON / FUTURE GROUP : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
Front-End Focus
•Before the entry of the big boys, Pantaloon Retail has signed up sufficient
retail space for its planned growth to 30m sf by FY09/10 at an average rate of
about Rs45/sf.
• Future Group’s strategy is markedly different from other retailers in that it
focuses primarily on front-end investments to keep its capital costs low and to
rapidly establish a large foot print in the retail landscape.
• It has avoided setting up large supply-chain and distribution centres and in
many product categories it has adopted the concessionaire model.
For example, in fresh foods and vegetables, it has tied-up with
wholesalers at the mandis (local markets) who supply the products and it
is the wholesaler’s responsibility to manage the inventory and to staff the
counters.
10
PANTALOON / FUTURE GROUP : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
• Its general merchandise sourcing has depended on the traditional
wholesalers and efficiencies have been driven by the scale of sourcing,
instead of directly tying up with manufacturers. The wholesalers act as
category managers.
Apparel Focus
•Another differentiator for Pantaloon is its focus on apparel and fashion.
Pantaloon.s genesis is in textiles and apparel and its promoters probably
understand that segment the best.
•Its hypermarket strategy is apparel-driven with 40-45% of revenue targeted
from private labels.
• Apparel products have high gross margins and Pantaloon believes that with
its apparel-focussed strategy, it will be able to maintain higher margins than
its competitors.
11
PANTALOON / FUTURE GROUP : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
Understanding of Indian Consumer
• Pantaloon.s strength has been its ability to understand the Indian consumer.
• Its other strength has been its ability to correct rapidly. With a multitude of
available formats, if something has not worked, the company has taken
prompt corrective action.
• Its different formats have also continuously evolved to keep pace with
competitive dynamics and market realities. For example, the group.s
department stores have continuously evolved from predominantly men.s
stores, into family-fashion stores, stores for trendy higher-end clothing with a
sprinkling of designer labels, and now into stores where fashion merchandise
is changed every two months.
12
PANTALOON / FUTURE GROUP : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
In-house Focus
•Apart from the various formats, Pantaloon intends to manage almost every
activity in-house via different associates companies where it intends to offer
strategic stakes to financial investors or partners with domain expertise. For
example
it intends to handle the group’s logistics through a subsidiary company
(Future Logistics)
the outdoor and indoor media inventory is being handled by an in-house
company, Future Media, where Group M, the world’s leading full service
media investment management company belonging to the WPP group, has
reportedly taken a strategic stake.
The company has also launched Future Brands which will house all of the
in-house brands for the group, manage intellectual property, grow brands
and extract value. In-house brands will subsequently be franchised out to
other retailers as well.
13
PANTALOON / FUTURE GROUP : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
• As the businesses grow in scale, Pantaloon Retail will have a retailing
business and an equally large investment arm that has seeded multiple
businesses for forward and backward integration.
• In select product categories, Pantaloon Retail has entered into JVs with a
variety of other companies. The aim of the joint ventures is to gain salience in
product categories like children’s clothing, footwear or health and fitness
where it lacks both experience and expertise.
• Given the company.s aggressive growth plans, the key fears have been over
its ability to raise capital, its management bandwidth and its ability to
manage its growth. Pantaloon Retail in the last couple of years has been able
to attract experienced professionals to increase its management bandwidth.
14
Shopper’s Stop
15
• Shopper.s Stop is promoted by the K Raheja family with primary interests
in real estate.
•Shopper.s Stop was probably the first department store to open in Mumbai in
the early 1990s and has had steady but measured growth under B S Nagesh,
CEO since its inception.
• It has been a professionally run organisation with no day-to-day
management
participation from the Raheja family.
• Shopper.s Stop.s department store works on a mix of direct sales,
consignment sales and concession sales, with about 60% of revenue from
bought-out merchandise, 25% from consignment sales and 15%
concessionaire sales.
SHOPPER’S STOP : INTRODUCTION
16
SHOPPER’S STOP : GROWTH OVER THE YEARS
1991 Launched the first Shopper.s Stop store in Mumbai.2000 Acquired 51% stake in Crosswords, leading books, music and gifts stores.2002 Launched four new Shopper.s Stop stores in a span of 15 months.2005 Acquires balance 49% stake in Crosswords.2006 Launches Mother Care- mother and baby products.2005 Launches MAC- luxury cosmetic stores with brands such as Clinique and EsteeLauder.2006 Promoter group launched Hypercity, their hypermarket format, where Shopper.sheld the right to acquire 51% stake by Dec 08.2006 Launched the food and beverage retailing with BRIO- the café bistro and Desi Café.2006 Launched Home Stop, its home store format.2006 Bid and won the rights to open Duty free stores at Mumbai and Bangaloreinternational airports in JV with Nuance Group AG. Also has rights to open stores atMumbai’s domestic terminal.
17
• Shopper’s Stop has assiduously built a reputation as a multi-brand
departmental store.
• After some false starts in the mid 1990s, the company has once again
returned to a growth trajectory.
• It has clear positioning and is targeting well-heeled, upper-middle class and
above consumers.
• It has robust systems and processes and very high customer loyalty. Over
60% of its annual revenue comes from holders of its First Citizen loyalty card.
SHOPPER’S STOP : STRATEGIC APPROACH
Superior Brand Image
18
• Shopper.s Stop sets great store in its systems and processes and has
attempted to adopt some of the best global practices.
• At the heart of the IT system is the JDA-MMS ERP system. For merchandise
planning, the company uses Arthur Planning and Business Objects, an
analytical and decision-support application.
•Shopper.s is implementing world class tools like the Intactix (space and
category-management application) and E3 (an advanced merchandise-
replenishment application). It is a member of the Intercontinental Group of
Department Stores (IGDS).

SHOPPER’S STOP : STRATEGIC APPROACH
FOCUSSED ON SYSTEMS AND PROCESSES
20
• The group has slowly but steadily begun moving into different categories
and
formats to cater to a larger percentage of total customer spending.
• The group.s other major retailing foray has been into hypermarkets under
the Hypercity Retail name.
• The customer segment targeted is the same as Shopper.s Stop, and the
venture is managed by experienced professionals.
• Hypercity is focussed on building a robust supply chain.
•It has set up large distribution centres and intends to adopt a hub and spoke
model to extract maximum returns from its investments.
SHOPPER’S STOP : STRATEGIC APPROACH
Expansion in different Categories and Formats
21
• It does not intend to employ a farm-to-fork model and it will rely on third party
service providers for procurement of fresh food and grocery lines.
• Unlike Shopper.s Stop, the focus at Hypercity is on private labels.
• Unlike Big Bazaar of Pantaloon, Hypercity’s focus is on general merchandise to
drive revenue, rather than apparel.
• Shopper.s Stop also has a joint venture with Nuance group of Switzerland,
which has won the rights to operate the duty free stores in Bangalore and
Hyderabad international airports.

Reliance Retail

RELIANCE RETAIL : INTRODUCTION
•Reliance Retail unveiled its organized retail foray in Nov 2006 with the launch
of convenience stores in the southern Indian city of Hyderabad.
•Reliance ramped up its presence primarily through Reliance Fresh and ended
FY 2007 with about 1000 stores.
•Investment plans of US $5 bn, revenue of US $ 25 bn, targeting 100 mn Sq.
feet of store space across 1500 cities.
•Reliance’s proven project-execution skills will be crucial to the success of this
venture.
• The company has already established a presence in the National Capital
Region (NCR), Jaipur, Ranchi, Chennai, Ahmedabad and Bangalore, since its
first launch in Hyderabad.
• The company has also launched its RelianceOne loyalty program, which
comes with free accident insurance and free home delivery.

Reliance Retail has been expanding very fast since it’s exception.
32
RELIANCE RETAIL : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
• Reliance initially launched stores in two formats . the 2,000-5,000 sf Reliance
Fresh convenience stores, and the wholesale cash-and-carry Ranger Farms to
supply small grocers and retailers.
• The Reliance Fresh stores are focussed on food (its private label brand being
Reliance Select for staples and groceries) but also launched larger stores that
stock both food and non-food items (Reliance Fresh Plus).
• The first hypermarket was launched in mid 2007.
• Organised retail is also likely to be Reliance.s most complex project yet.
• Meeting the reported US$20-25bn revenue target will be contingent upon
overcoming significant challenges in the supply chain (especially with
food),space (it would need 100m sf versus 3.1m sf for Pantaloon presently)
and trained manpower (especially middle/lower management).
33
RELIANCE RETAIL : KEY STRATEGIC APPROACH
•It will be critically dependent upon Reliance.s ability to replicate its
unparalleled execution success in a direct B2C landscape.
• Reliance’s strategy is to put in place a strong supply chain, including a strong
sourcing base, and huge scale.
• It has recruited many CEOs from the retailing and related industries to
vertically manage various categories. However, early on it has lost Rajeev
Karwal, in-charge of consumer durables and electronics, Abhinandan Shukla,
in-charge of confectionary and S Ramesh, head of buying, underscoring the
challenges on the human-resources front.
•It has also recruited over 150 expat managers to ensure that local managers
pick up the requisite knowledge and skill sets
34
Bharti-wal-mart
35
BHARTI WAL-MART : STRATEGIC APPROACH
• Bharti group and Wal-Mart have announced the formation of a joint venturefor backend processing and sourcing.• The current rules allow 51% FDI in single-brand retailing, preventing Wal-Mart from doing business directly.•The business premise for the joint venture is reportedly similar growth plans shared by the two partners. • It remains to be seen whether Wal-Mart attempts to enter the market separately via Sam.s Club (its cash-and-carry format) where FDI is allowed.• The Bharti group intends to invest US$2.5bn over the next 5-10 years and plans to have ten million square feet of shelf space by 2015.•Bharti-Wal-Mart JV to target the hypermarket, supermarket and convenience store model. • Although the plans that it has announced are dwarfed by Reliance.s plans, Bharti group is likely to announce more aggressive plans at a later date. • Its announcement about the JV with Wal-Mart was met with protests from a section of the political spectrum and the group may be trying to play its cards close to its chest.
36
• Bharti group proven adept at scaling up its telecom business and will look to
scale up the retail business rapidly as well.
• While the plans of formats, merchandise mix etc is not yet known, it is likely
that one of the key focus areas for Bharti group will be fresh food & grocery.
• Bharti group has a JV with the ELRo Holdings, an investment company of the
Rothschild family, called Field Fresh for growing and procuring fresh food and
groceries.
•The venture’s business model encompasses growing, procuring, processing
and selling to the domestic market (organised and unorganised retailers) and
overseas. In the domestic market, the group.s retail venture will be a large
customer and it also intends to sell to other retailers.
BHARTI WAL-MART : STRATEGIC APPROACH
37
• The Field Fresh venture is the first link in the Bharti group’s farm to
fork
strategy.
• It is also helping the group to get ahead in the learning curve and to
pick up the best practices in a supply chain while dealing with global
retailers
like Tesco.
• Thus, the Bharti group.s strategy will be supply-chain driven with a
focus on fresh food and grocery and private labels.
BHARTI WAL-MART : STRATEGIC APPROACH
38
Subhiksha
39
• Subhiksha, India.s largest chain of supermarkets, started off in Chennai in
1997.
• Currently operates over 2.5 million square feet of retail space across the
states of Tamil Nadu, New Delhi, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Gujarat.
• Subhiksha operates in four verticals - fruit and vegetables, pharmaceuticals,
FMCG and telecoms.
• The company has been promoted by Mr R Subramanian, an IIT Madras and
IIM Ahmedabad
alumni member.
• ICICI Ventures holds 24% of the company.
SUBHIKSHA : INTRODUCTION
40
• Subhiksha follows the .cluster approach. (a store within every two
kilometres) upon entering new markets, with proximity to residential areas the
key to success for convenience and super stores.
• An average store measures 2,000 sf and is not air-conditioned, unlike Big
Bazaar.
• Subhiksha is a hard discount store (at least 10% cheaper than regular retail
prices) and encourages phone orders and home deliveries.
• Subhiksha is also positioned between a glitzy modern format and a no-frills
convenient modern format that a large number of middle class consumers will
be very comfortable with.
SUBHIKSHA : STRATEGIC APPROACH
41
SUBHIKSHA : STRENGTHS AND CHALLENGES
•Early mover advantage
•Strong presence in key retail
markets
•A decade of experience in
retailing
•Strong base of loyalty members
•Funding for expansion plan has
been tied-up
•Nation-wide presence will bring
greater bargaining power
•Prime candidate for acquisition
Strengths
•Primarily a front-end format
•Share of fresh grocery is low;
FMCG & pharmaceuticals form a
large chunk
•Entering in a big way into new
markets . Will have to manage
local authorities, retailers as well
as suppliers
• Competition is expected to
intensify
Challenges
42
Rural Retailing
43
• The rural market in India is worth an estimated US$120-150bn and accounts
for an estimated 55% of total retail spending.
• According to NCAER estimates, rural India is home to 720m consumers
spread across over 0.6m villages.
• Only 17% of these villages though, account for 50% of the rural population
and 60% of the rural wealth.
• While this means that an organised retailer can target 50% of the rural
population by reaching out to about 0.1m villages, the villages are widely
spread out across the length and breadth of the country and the target
population density may be small.
•For retailers, rural areas are not only a potential market, but also an integral
part of the farm-to-fork strategy. With greater engagement with farmers to
source farming goods and to introduce supply-chain efficiencies in the entire
chain, the retailers will have an opportunity to sell goods to the rural
community by using the same supply chain.
RURAL RETAILING : INTRODUCTION
44
• Foremost among current players is ITC (the cigarette major) which also has a
presence in apparel retailing through its Wills Lifestyle outlets.
• ITCs engagement with rural India is established as it has a longstanding and
close association with tobacco farmers and later with sunflower growers.
• As it has entered the food and grocery segment by selling products like
branded oils and flour, it has increased its involvement with rural India.
• ITC is not alone. The Godrej group has launched two retail formats . Nature’s
Basket which sells fresh food and staples in urban areas, and Godrej Aadhar
which is a rural format much like ITCs e-choupal initiative.
• There are 24 Aadhar outlets in eight rural locations across the country.
•It has also joined with HPCL to open Aadhar Express outlets in rural Punjab,
Maharashtra and Gujarat.
