Dmart Sales Anlaysis: Strengths in The SWOT Analysis of D Mart
Avenue Supermarts, the firm that runs DMartNSE -1.25 % retail chain, saw its online sales
more than double during FY19 to Rs 144 crore even though it operates in just one market
— Mumbai.
The country’s most valuable retailer by market cap, however, posted a net loss of Rs 51
crore in the two-year old ecommerce venture.
A year ago, its online business — DMart Ready — posted sales of Rs 44 crore with net
loss of Rs 48 crore, according to its investor presentation filed on the BSE. Unlike etailers
such as BigBasket and Grofers, which rely on delivery based distribution model, DMart's
online venture essentially has multiple delivery centres or pick-up points in catchment
areas, where it has a store, so that customers can order online and pick it up.

DMART follows a cluster-based store expansion strategy. It opens new stores within
a radius of a few kilometers of its existing stores and distribution centers. This allows
it to achieve
(a) better understanding of local needs and preferences,
(b) increased penetration in under-served markets,
(c) higher cost efficiency due to economies of scale, and
(d) greater brand visibility.
In the process of opening new stores, DMART takes into account factors like
(a) population density,
(b) customer and vehicular traffic,
(c) customer accessibility,
(d) potential growth of local population and economy,
(e) area development potential and future development trends,
The company’s go-to-market strategy allows setting up stores of 10,000-60,000sf in
areas with a population of 60,000 to areas as large as metropolitan cities. This
allows higher flexibility to grow. The company intends to add 25 stores every year
and has a clear strategy of re-investing ~75% of the money earned into existing
clusters and the balance in creating new clusters. Out of the 21 new stores added
from FY17, 15 stores (71%) have been added in the existing clusters.

•Little attention to cleanliness. Dust on shelves as well assome product items.
•In-house packaging not efficiently done.
•Crowded store interiors. Items are arranged in a clutteredway. Tried to stock
maximum number in limited area.
TRANSPORT OWNERSHIP & RESPONIBILITY
Vendor is responsible for the transportation of the goods and he is responsible of
mishappening if any. One thing which is noticeable is that if the product is branded
then the vendor has the upper hand. That means Big Bazaar has to take pain for the
display of such products and if the products are not branded then the vendor will
have to take pain for the display of their product.
WAREHOUSING
Company has its own warehouse. Since the warehouse is not big enough as orders
are placed frequently. Different store of Big Bazaar has different warehouse.
Once the product reaches the warehouse it is checked by the warehouse incharge
and inward checklist is filled accordingly.

Reliance Fresh
Sales ANALYSIS
Mukesh Ambani-led Reliance Retail more than doubled revenue during the year ended March,
becoming the first retailer in India to cross the $10 billion sales mark. At ₹69,198 crore, Reliance
Retail’s revenue in the previous financial year exceeded the combined sales of rivals Future Group,

Place in the Marketing Mix Of Reliance Fresh :
Reliance Fresh has a Pan-India presence that has spread to more than ninety-
three cities and towns in India. Its headquarters base is at Mumbai in
Maharashtra. The brand serves its customers with help of 1,691 outlets of
Reliance Fresh that are located close to residential areas in the commercial
complex to gain maximum customer presence.
Logitics Analysis
Reliance Fresh makes its purchase of green vegetables and fruits from the local farmers but never
from the mandis. They have established the rural business hubs in many parts of the country. The
objective of Reliance Fresh is to make the entire value chain more effective, robust and
responsive. By approaching farmers directly, it thereby reduces the procurement wastage that
further paves the way for better returns to Indian farmers and wholesalers as well as it renders
greater value for the Indian consumers. In the first phase vegetables and fruits are procured from
the suppliers and wholesalers followed by processing, separating rotten ones and finally packaging
for sale. From the collection point, Reliance Fresh uses its own logistics for transportation and
processing in collection point, then transported to processing point or DC and ultimately to the
customers through the retail outlets. Realistic supply chains have multiple end products with
shared components, facilities and capacities. The flow of materials may require various modes of
transportation, and the bill of materials for the end items may be both deep and large. But things
always don‟t turn out to be the same as planned. Opposition against Reliance fresh outlets in
Odisha and U.P soon interrupted the momentum. Reliance wished to go with.
