Figure shown that in year 2009, retail sales grew by a mere 0.8 per cent
while in 2008, the growth was at 5 per cent. In 2007, retail sales grew by
12.8 per cent. Last year was challenging, businesses that were hit were
those in the fashion and fashion accessories as well as those that sold
luxury or higher priced items.
|
|
However, most of the business have started to pick up this year. The 5.5
per cent growth is expected to translate into RM74.9 billion in consumer
spending on items ranging from clothing to furniture and groceries to
jewelery. The figures do not take into account big ticket items like houses
and cars.

|
Sales in the second half of the year will see an impact from the reduction
of subsidies and rising interest rates. The government's move of reducing
subsidies this year will have a major impact on consumers this year. Prices
may not have risen so far, but they are expected to do so towards the end
of the year.
|
|
Another factor affecting retail trend is the cost of borrowing. Rising
interest rates will have some impact on the purchasing power of Malaysian
consumers.
|
|
It costs more now to buy big tickets items or consumer goods on credit. At
the same time, higher car and housing installments will reduce the spending
power of consumers on retail goods. Moreover, domestic consumption may also
be affected as the external demand remains week.

In the first quarter of 2010, retail growth was at 7.9 per cent, up from a
3.3 per cent contraction. With the exception of the second quarter of 2010,
the three other quarters are expected to grow over last year's
corresponding quarters. Sales in the third quarter are set to improve by 6
per cent due to the Mega Sale Carnival and Hari Raya purchases. Retail
sales in the October to December 2010 period are forecast to grow by 3.5
per cent supported by the traditional year-end school holidays and
Christmas shopping. Sales in the third quarter are set to improve by 6 per
cent due to the Mega Sale Carnival and Hari Raya purchases.

OVERALL INDUSTRY OUTLOOK : Marginal Growth
|
COMMENTS & RECOMMENDATION
|
Incorporated in 2010 as a sole proprietorship, the SC is principally
engaged in the trading of stationeries, clothing and sports equipment.
Having been in the business for only 1 year, the SC's position in the
market is not stable. It is only deals with a very limited number of
clients.
|
|
The SC's business expansion opportunities are limited as it concentrates
solely on the local market. Moreover, its current market share is not large
as it business operations are principally conducted in Pulau Pinang. In
this regard, the SC's commercial risk is high. Any adverse changes to the
local economy might have a negative impact on the SC's business
performance. As a small company with only 2 employees in the business, the
SC does not have strong management team. The SC's overall management
capability is considered as weak.
|
|
As the SC registered as a sole proprietorship, its financial statement is
no available for analysis. As such, we are unable to ascertain the SC's
financial health. The SC's ability to meet its obligations is very much
dependent on the owner's financial strength.
|
|
We noticed that the SC relies whole of its supply on local market. Without
being involved in any import and export activities, the SC does not face
foreign exchange risk. The SC may face high risk of shortage of raw
materials because of supplies is easily interrupted due to circumstances
beyond its control.
|
|
The industry expects to enjoy a marginal growth in the near term. As the
market competition is tight, the SC should adopt more marketing strategies
in order to retain its market position as well as compete with other well
established players in the same field.
|
|
Being a young company, we propose that business transaction with the SC be conducted
with caution and on a conservative basis until such time when the SC is
more fully established. Hence, credit is not recommended.
