The partnership kicks off with 10 pilot stores* across Cold Storage and Giant, with a view to roll out island-wide over the next few months. Dairy Farm will kick start the initiative with a donation of 10,000 meals to The Food Bank Singapore’s beneficiaries - a target the initiative hopes to achieve with the help of customers every month.

  • The Impacts of Supermarkets and Hypermarkets from the Perspectives of Fresh Fruit and Vegetable (Ffv) Wholesalers and Retailers
    Journal of Agribusiness Marketing • Vol.Amin 4 (2011): Mahir 21-37et al. THE IMPACTS OF SUPERMARKETS AND HYPERMARKETS FROM THE PERSPECTIVES OF FRESH FRUIT AND VEGETABLE (FFV) WHOLESALERS AND RETAILERS Amin Mahir Abdullah* Fatimah Mohamad Arshad Ismail Abd Latif ABSTRACT The importance of the retail sector to economic growth has been very significant. The rapid growth of the sector is partly contributed by the emergence of supermarkets and hypermarkets that are mostly foreign- owned. This has raised some concerns by the local conventional retailers including fresh fruit and vegetable (FFV) retailers. The government has reacted to the concerns by introducing new guidelines to developing new hypermarkets in this country. This study investigates the impacts of these two types of retailers on local FFV wholesalers and retailers. Data from personal interviews with FFV retailers and wholesalers were analysed. Results of the analyses showed that supermarkets and hypermarkets did impose competition on conventional wholesalers and retailers. However, they have also brought some changes to FFV retail business, such as promoting quality products, and a better and a systematic marketing approach. Keywords: Fresh fruit, vegetable, supermarkets, hypermarkets, wholesalers, retailers INTRODUCTION Malaysia’s food retail industry has progressed rapidly in parallel to the changes in the developed economy that is, the growth of hypermarkets and retailers as the major retail centres for consumers to buy foods and consumer goods. This development is brought about by the globalisation process, in particular the free flow of capital between countries and enhanced by the Foreign Direct Investment policy of the country. This development, however, poses a challenge to the traditional distribution network.
