  • Hypermarket Lessons for New Zealand a Report to the Commerce Commission of New Zealand
    Hypermarket lessons for New Zealand A report to the Commerce Commission of New Zealand September 2007 Coriolis Research Ltd. is a strategic market research firm founded in 1997 and based in Auckland, New Zealand. Coriolis primarily works with clients in the food and fast moving consumer goods supply chain, from primary producers to retailers. In addition to working with clients, Coriolis regularly produces reports on current industry topics. The coriolis force, named for French physicist Gaspard Coriolis (1792-1843), may be seen on a large scale in the movement of winds and ocean currents on the rotating earth. It dominates weather patterns, producing the counterclockwise flow observed around low-pressure zones in the Northern Hemisphere and the clockwise flow around such zones in the Southern Hemisphere. It is the result of a centripetal force on a mass moving with a velocity radially outward in a rotating plane. In market research it means understanding the big picture before you get into the details. PO BOX 10 202, Mt.

    WHARTON REAL ESTATE REVIEW SPRING 2012 Creating a New Suburban Town Center WITOLD RYBCZYNSKI Tougher economic times, lack of consumer confidence, and rising energy prices are likely to curtail distant ex-urban development in the decades to come, and one of the challenges for real estate developers will be to infill and densify suburban areas. Altering zoning and raising densities in existing residential areas will not be easy, however, not only because of neighborhood opposition to change, but also because most housing in the last three decades has been built as part of planned communities. These communities are governed not by municipal regulations, which can (with difficulty) be changed, but by homeowner associations that have been created in order to make change almost impossible. Housing aside, there is also the problem of how to convert suburban commercial development, which has generally occurred in a piecemeal and uncoordinated fashion, into concentrated, walkable, attractive town centers. Despite the current fashion for lifestyle centers that mimic the Main Street environment of small towns, the suburban centers of the future will not necessarily resemble the downtowns of the past. What follows is an example of how out- of-the-box thinking—and a public-private partnership—produced an innovative solution to a complicated problem. The Deal More than three decades ago, recognizing that the growth of the city of Vancouver was constrained by its location on a peninsula, hemmed in by surrounding water and mountains, Metro Vancouver developed a regional plan—theLivable Region Plan—to direct urban growth into surrounding suburban municipalities. Most urbanization was expected to occur in the southeast, down the broad Fraser Valley.

Canadian Retail Market Overview Since the 2005 Consumer Trends Report, the retail sector1 has continued to play an increasingly vital role in the Canadian marketplace, given its contribution to the Canadian economy and its impact on consumers and their consumption activities. In 2011, the sector generated $457.4 billion in retail sales and represented approximately 12 percent of the Canadian workforce (Statistics Canada, 2012c). Despite experiencing falling demand during the recession in 2009, the sector’s sales grew by 17.1 percent between 2006 and 2011 ($457.4 billion in sales in 2011, an increase of $66.9 billion compared to 2006). Even at its lowest ebb in 2009 ($416.6 billion in sales), the sector represented 6.2 percent of Canada’s gross domestic product, an increase of 0.2 percent compared to 2001 (Industry Canada, 2010; Statistics Canada, 2012c). The gains in sales since the recession have been relatively healthy, rising to $457.4 billion for all of 2011, reflecting an increase of 4.0 percent from the previous year (Statistics Canada, 2012c).
