  • 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.

  • The Impact of a Giant: a Spatial Analysis of the Fate of Our Neighbourhood Sundry Shops
    2nd INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE ON BUILT ENVIRONMENT IN DEVELOPING COUNTRIES (ICBEDC 2008) THE IMPACT OF A GIANT: A SPATIAL ANALYSIS OF THE FATE OF OUR NEIGHBOURHOOD SUNDRY SHOPS M. Rafee Majid and Yuhanis Yaakup Department of Urban and Regional Planning, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, 81310 Skudai, Johor, Malaysia [email protected] ABSTRACT Kedai runcit or sundry shops have been a standard feature of our housing estate landscape ever since there were housing estates. These mom-and-pop operations have been selling to their surrounding residents everyday essentials such as groceries, fresh produce, poultry, toiletries, etc. Their reasonable price and close distance have made them popular among residents of the housing estates in which they are located. Lately, though, their popularity has been on the decline due to competition from wholesale markets or hypermarkets which can offer the same items cheaper and conveniently under one roof. Local and foreign-bred hypermarkets such as Giants, Tesco and Carrefour have been invading our towns, big and small, leaving the traditional sundry shops fighting for their business. Many of these small-scale individually-owned shops have since closed their operations permanently or moved them a little further outskirt of town, away from the hypermarket catchment. Just how serious is the impact of these hypermarkets on the operation of the sundry shops has so far not been fully investigated in Malaysia although many studies have been carried out elsewhere. Thus, this paper presents a study that has been carried out by the authors to investigate how serious the impact is in Johor Bahru. A sample of three hypermarkets was chosen for this study.
