The retail industry is designed in such a way that it creates contact efficiency by allowing shoppers to fulfill their needs by buying products as per their needs with a smaller number of transactions.
The retail industry is divided into two sectors-
Organized trading activities that are undertaken by retailers who are registered for sales tax, Income tax, etc.
Unorganized retailing-local Kirana shops, owner-managed general stores, street vendors, convenience stores, etc.
Some of the key players in the organized retail sector- Pantaloons Retail Ltd, a future group venture, Shoppers Stop Ltd, Lifestyle, Landmark Group Venture, etc.
Other major players in the retailing sector are Reliance Retail, Bharti Retail,
Globus, Aditya Birla "More" etc.
The retail industry also uses product variety and price as a filter. Consumers buy from departmental stores to take advantage of reasonable prices on products. Department stores focus on competing with discount retailers who sell popular products and bulk products at low per-unit prices. The niche business remains on the outskirts of the retail industry due to lower prices. Niche businesses include jewelers, organic food markets, independent bookstores, etc that target the narrower groups of consumers.
We can see the increase in online retailing at quite astonishing rates, with online sales now accounting for around one-quarter of the total retail market. The future of the retail industry features a huge shift from traditional stores to online retailers selling to national and international consumers. However, now traditional markets are paving the way for the development of department stores, supermarkets, and specialty stores through online platforms. In the early 21st Century it was observed that there was continued growth in virtual discount stores and niche retailers offering products at below-established store prices due to reduced operational costs for online stores as well as increased sales volumes that allow for deeper price cuts. Consumers are given a platform and advantage to search for reviews on products sold by online retailers to avoid inferior goods and find the best deals which create a great push over online stores.
