1.INTRODUCTION

The India Retail Industry is the largest among all the industries, accounting for over 10 per

cent of the country GDP and around 8 per cent of the employment. The Retail Industry in

India has come forth as one of the most dynamic and fast paced industries with several

players entering the market. But all of them have not yet tasted success because of the heavy

initial investments that are required to break even with other companies and compete with

them. The India Retail Industry is gradually inching its way towards becoming the next boom

industry. The total concept and idea of shopping has undergone an attention drawing change

in terms of format and consumer buying behavior, ushering in a revolution in shopping in

India. Modern retailing has entered into the Retail market in India as is observed in the form

of bustling shopping centers, multi-storied malls and the huge complexes that offer shopping,

entertainment and food all under one roof. A large young working population with median

age of 24 years, nuclear families in urban areas, along with increasing workingwomen

population and emerging opportunities in the services sector are going to be the key factors in

the growth of the organized Retail sector in India. The growth pattern in organized retailing

and in the consumption made by the Indian population will follow a rising graph helping the

newer businessmen to enter the India Retail Industry. In India the vast middle class and its

almost untapped retail industry are the key attractive forces for global retail giants wanting to

enter into newer markets, which in turn will help the India Retail Industry to grow faster.

Indian retail is expected to grow 25 per cent annually. Modern retail in India could be worth

US$ 175-200 billion by 2016. The Food Retail Industry in India dominates the shopping

basket. The Mobile phone Retail Industry in India is already a US$ 16.7 billion business,

growing at over 20 per cent per year. The future of the India Retail Industry looks promising

with the growing of the market, with the government policies becoming more favorable and

the emerging technologies facilitating operations.

1.1 OVERVIEW OF RETAIL MARKET

India is the country having the most unorganized retail market. Traditionally it is a family

livelihood, with their shop in the front and house at the back, while they run the retail business.

More than 99% retailer function in less than 500 square feet of shopping space. Global retail

consultants KSA Technopak have estimated that organized retailing in India is expected to touch

Rs 35,000 crore in the year 2005-06. The Indian retail sector is estimated at around Rs 900,000

crore, of which the organized sector accounts for a mere 2 per cent indicating a huge potential

market opportunity that is lying in the waiting for the consumer-savvy organized retailer.

Purchasing power of Indian urban consumer is growing and branded merchandise in categories

like Apparels, Cosmetics, Shoes, Watches, Beverages, Food and even Jewellery, are slowly

becoming lifestyle products that are widely accepted by the urban Indian consumer. Indian

retailers need to advantage of this growth and aiming to grow, diversify and introduce new

formats have to pay more attention to the brand building process. The emphasis here is on retail

as a brand rather than retailers selling brands. The focus should be on branding the retail business

itself. In their preparation to face fierce competitive pressure, Indian retailers must come to

recognize the value of building their own stores as brands to reinforce their marketing

positioning, to communicate quality as well as value for money. Sustainable competitive

advantage will be dependent on translating core values combining products, image and

reputation into a coherent retail brand strategy. There is no doubt that the Indian retail scene is

booming. Today the organized players have attacked every retail category. The Indian retail

scene has witnessed too many players in too short a time, crowding several categories without

looking at their core competencies, or having a well thought out branding strategy.

Chapter-2-Review of literature

2.1 Conceptual Review

Retail comes from the French word retailler, which refers to "cutting off, clip and divide" in

terms of tailoring (1365). It first was recorded as a noun with the meaning of a "sale in small

quantities" in 1433 (French). Its literal meaning for retail was to "cut off, shred, paring". Like the

French, the word retail in both Dutch and German (detailhandel and Einzelhandel respectively),

also refers to the sale of small quantities of items

Retailing consists of the sale of goods or merchandise from a very fixed location, such as a

department store, boutique or kiosk, or by mail, in small or individual lots for direct consumption

by the purchaser. Retailing may include subordinated services, such as delivery. Purchasers may

be individuals or businesses. In commerce, a "retailer" buys goods or products in large quantities

from manufacturers or importers, either directly or through a wholesaler, and then sells smaller

quantities to the end-user. Retail establishments are often called shops or stores. Retailers are at

the end of the supply chain. Manufacturing marketers see the process of retailing as a necessary

part of their overall distribution strategy. The term "retailer" is also applied where a service

provider services the needs of a large number of individuals, such as a public utility, like electric

power.Shops may be on residential streets, shopping streets with few or no houses or in a

shopping mall. Shopping streets may be for pedestrians only. Sometimes a shopping street has a

partial or full roof to protect customers from precipitation. Online retailing, a type of electronic

commerce used for business-to-consumer (B2C) transactions and mail order, are forms of non-

shop retailing.Shopping generally refers to the act of buying products. Sometimes this is done to

obtain necessities such as food and clothing; sometimes it is done as a recreational activity.

Page 11: Sheik Project Final

Recreational shopping often involves window shopping (just looking, not buying) and browsing

and does not always result in a purchase.

.

2.2 Research Findings review

To segment consumer good and service markets the food compaies use market information and

collect based on certain key customer- product- or situation-related criteria. Jobber-Fahy (2006)

These are classified as segmentation bases and include profile (e.g. who are my market and

where are they) such as behavioural (e.g. where, when, and how does my market behave) than

psychological criteria (e.g. why does my market behave that way).

Psychological criteria: They are used for segmenting consumer product and service markets

include using attitudes and perceptions (e.g. negative feelings about fast food); psychographics

or the lifestyles of customers (e.g. extrovert, fashion conscious, high achiever), and the types

of benefits sought by customers from products and brands and their consumption choices

Mentally visualizing a prototypical member of a market segment is critically important .Being

able to mentally “walk in their shoes” helps a marketer understand what articulated needs this

person might have , and how we can communicate most effectively to the segment they

represent (winstein 1986: 1987).it has been claimed that “the fifth ‘P’ of the marketing is the

personalization”(Schultz 1991).That is , the classic four P’s of marketing –Product ,price ,place

(distribution),and promotion are only effective to the extent that they are used make a

“personal” connection with the customer . “Every sale is personal sale”……although the

important point about persuasion is not new (Carnegie 1937),it does not seem understood by

most marketer. Many marketing decision,however,are becoming more driven by data bases than

by a personal understanding of the customer .when told the importance of “really knowing your

customer ,” its easy to imagine marketers and advertiser who would claim they already know

their customer Knowing the profile characteristics of target groups can help marketing strategists

Page 12: Sheik Project Final

to tailor the product or service and promote the product or service more effectively.Each group

can be targeted and reached with a distinct marketing mix (McDonald & Dunbar, 1995).

The purpose of market segmentation is to identify homogeneous groups of people with similar

characteristic of customer (Laws, 1997; Doole & Lowe, 2001). This will enable the marketer to

more closely match a product or service to the needs of the target market. It is known that

customers respond better to offerings that are tailored and aimed directly at them, rather than at

the broader public (Trigg, 1995).

(

Khan, Chang & Horridge, 1992) indicated the selection of media is based on the characteristics

of media, the demographics and psychographics of the target market, and the characteristics of

the product. Results indicated that self-consciousness and demographic Variables such as age,

education, occupation, marital status, ethnic group, and political outlook affected the usage of

newspapers, magazines, radio, television,

personality characteristic that is closely related to expertise is self – efficacy, which refers to

individuals’ beliefs that they have the ability and the resources to successfully perform a specific

task .Personality traits have been shown to influence consumer decision-making behavior. The

personality variables self-confidence and anxiety were reported to be related to consumer choice

behavior (Horton, 1979).

Gutman & Mills, 1982) investigated the effects of life-style and self-perception on consumers’

purchase intention or behavior toward clothing products Results concluded that consumers with

different self-perceptions have different attitudes or responses toward fashion/clothing products.

Page 13: Sheik Project Final

Morgan and Doran (2003) argue that psychographic segmentation, if used to design and

implement a communication strategy, can result in more effective and efficient campaigns, and

change the communicator into a strategist rather than a tactician, moving his or her work from

that of an inexact art to an exact science.

Clawson, and Vinson (1978) express the importance of values in predicting the consumer

behaviour that values can surpass the contributions of other major constructs including attitudes,

product attributes, degree of deliberating, product classification, and life style. The value

expressed in a consumption experience is the result of the emotions that accompany the

consumption experience.

People decide which product to buy in different ways. The influence that people exercise over

decisions, as well as their brand loyalty, variety seeking behavior, information search,

distribution channel used and decision making units (centralized versus decentralized) all impact

the brand that they will purchase. While this focus is more prevalent in business-to-business

settings, certain elements are perfectly applicable to consumer segmentation as well(Haley and

Russel,1984).

The mix of cultural, social, personal, psychological factors and previous experiences, all which

influence behaviour, is largely uncontrollable. Because of the influence exerted upon patterns of

buying, it is essential that as much effort as possible is put into understanding how these factors

interact and ultimately how they influence decisions (Lamb et al., 2002).

RESEARCH METHODOLOGY

Page 14: Sheik Project Final

3.1 RESEARCH DESIGN

The research design phase deals with the detailing of procedure that will be adapted to

carry out the research study. The kind of research that is carried out, whether the study is carried

out in the field or in the laboratory, are decided .the details of data collection procedures and the

schedule of analytical procedures to be used in order to accomplish the research objective (set in

the earlier stage of research process) are also dealt with in research design.

3.3 SAMPLING

Sampling is an inescapable part of research, since populations are large and resources are limited

.sampling is aimed at obtaining representativeness and determining size of the sample.

Sampling is aimed at two major objectives.

The sample is representative of the population.

The size of the sample is adequate to get the desired accuracy.

3.6 Administration of Questionnaire

A descriptive research was used to analysis the customer profile. Primary data were

collected for the research. An undisguised structured questionnaire, was used for the research.

The respondents were asked to provide their personal profile,a nominal scaling technique were

used for the research.The sample size used was 500 respondents. The population from which our

sample was selected is from Royapetta, Mylapore, Manthaveli, Triplicane, Thousand lights and

Gopalapuram in Chennai, Tamilnadu ,India. The customer were selected in and around the area

in which the new retail hyper market is going to launch.

4.2 CHI-SQUARE ANALYSIS

The chi-square measures test the hypothesis that the row and column variables in a cross

tabulation are interdependent. A low significance value typically below 0.05 indicates that there

may be some relationship between two variables. While the chi-square measures may indicate

that there is a relationship between two variables, they do not indicate the strength or direction of

relationship.

4.3 Bivariate Correlation

The correlations table displays Pearson correlation coefficients, significance values, and the

number of cases with non-missing values. Pearson correlation coefficients assume the data are

normally distributed. The Pearson correlation coefficient is a measure of linear association

between two variables. The values of the correlation coefficient range from -1 to 1. The sign of

Page 48: Sheik Project Final

the correlation coefficient indicates the direction of the relationship, The absolute value of the

correlation coefficient indicates the strength, with larger absolute values indicating stronger

relationships. The correlation coefficients on the main diagonal are always 1.0.

Inference

Significance indicates the significance level of the F-test in the above table the

significance level is observed to be .011 which is lesser than 0.05. Hence there is significance

difference between the group’s namely Spend holiday and Family income. Small significance

values (<0.05) indicate the group difference. The calculated F value is 3.305 and its P value is

0.011 which is lesser than the accepted significance level of .05. Therefore we reject Null

hypothesis and accept alternative hypothesis. Hence, we conclude there is significant difference

between the family income and spend holiday .

Inference

This table lists the pair wise comparisons of the group means for all selected post hoc

procedures. Mean differences lists the differences between the sample means. Significant lists

the probability that the population mean difference is zero.

A 95% confidence interval is constructed for each difference. If this interval contains zero, the

two groups do not differ.
