MANAGEMENT DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS

 

OPERATIONAL OVERVIEW

 

The realignment of various verticals and lines of business to avoid duplication of costs, change of product mix at various formats to increase off take, change of format layouts to make it more appealing and increasing per sq. ft. contribution, were some of the key strategic moves taken by the organisation, which would start showing results from the current financial period.

 

In addition to above, the introduction of few internal controls measures and making operational people more accountable, for cost-effective results has also created awareness among employees to minimise costs of operations.

 

Further initiatives to improve customer experience and increase loyalty has ensured increase in business from existing customers through improvement in ticket size and frequency of customers. Around 14 million customers are now members of the company’s two cross-format loyalty programs – Payback and T24. The change in Big Bazaar’s positioning from, ‘Isse Sasta Aur Accha Kahin Nahin’ to ‘Naye India Ka Bazaar’ coupled with improvement in consumer experience and merchandize assortment and creation of a whole new positioning for the value fashion business through the FBB (Fashion at Big Bazaar) brand has brought back excitement and enthusiasm in the stores.

 

The Company has over a period of years have gained experience and specialised skill sets for its key categories of Fashion and Food along with the Home category that includes general merchandise, home improvement and consumer durables. Development of an appropriate mix in these categories remains critical to improve the gross margins and returns on capital employed in the business. The Company is also developing private branded products in fashion, food and general merchandise and increasing overall share of private brands in these categories and thereby realising higher profits due to better margins. Further, change of product mix as per the regional demands and introduction of specific products considering various factors such as region, festivals, seasons, fashion trends etc. also is resulting in better sales realisation.

 

With revised strategy, the business in the group is being consolidated under three verticals viz. Fashion, Food and Hypermarket Retail (including Home improvement). Further control of Group on essential support services such as Supply Chain Management, Training and Development, IT management, Media Services etc. ensures lesser dependence on external resources for critical business requirements. The Company continues to strive all its efforts to ensure better customer experience in various formats stores of the company, which would increase customer entry and higher conversion in sales.

 

 

CUSTOMER AND MARKETING OVERVIEW

 

As explained above, the management efforts of the Company is to ensure increase in number of customer entry in various format stores of the Company and higher conversion of sales vis-a-vis entry of customers, thereby targeting maximum share of the consumption spent. The company is focussing on driving a higher rate of innovation in marketing and consumer engagement, coupled with improved analytics from its loyalty programs to better target its consumers in the most cost-effective manner.

 

During the year, the company’s flagship format, Big Bazaar was adjudged as the third Most Trusted Brand in the services category, in a consumer survey done by global market research firm, The Nielsen Company. Among the other brands in the top five were Airtel, Vodafone, State Bank of India and BSNL.

 

 

BUSINESS OUTLOOK

 

During the year, the Company has taken multiple steps towards divestment of non-core assets and building a focussed retail organization. Within its retail business, a number of initiatives focussing on increasing efficiency and productivity of stores, an appropriate merchandize mix, streamlined supply chain and distribution, increased investments in technology, customer engagements, loyalty programs and improving the customer experience, has started to show results.

 

The same stores sales growth has begun to show an improving trend and so has the gross margins in the business. Key costs too have shown a downward movement during the year. The Company expects each of these trends to gather momentum. However, with its nature of business and the scale and size that it operates, the Company’s performance is intricately linked to the external environment.

 

The management is cautiously optimistic towards the external economic environment and expects consumer demand to become more consistent and robust in the forthcoming financial year. An improved economic environment is expected to not only help the Company continue to improve upon the trends mentioned above, but will also help reduce the inventory days in the business and also give the confidence to pursue a higher rate of expansion through new store openings in existing and new consumption centers.
