    Alblasserdam * 2015 Supermarktsector Distributieve en markttechnische achtergronden ALBLASSERDAM * 2015 VERPLAATSING DIRK VAN DEN BROEK DISTRIBUTIEVE EN MARKTTECHNISCHE ACHTERGRONDEN Conclusie Op dit moment zijn plannen in voorbereiding voor de versterking van de detailhandelsstructuur in Alblasserdam met het plan voor de verplaatsing en schaalvergroting van de Dirk van den Broek (voorheen Bas van der Heijden). De Dirk van den Broek zal worden gerealloceerd naar de Bochanenlocatie nabij de Plantageweg en worden vergroot naar 2.000 m² b.v.o. Met deze reallocatie wordt ingespeeld op de belangrijke (boven)lokale functie die deze supermarkt vervult in Alblasserdam. De distributieve mogelijkheden in Alblasserdam zijn in voldoende mate aanwezig voor deze versterking. Er zal dan ook geen winkelleegstand optreden in de dagelijkse winkelsector. Daarnaast resteert nog distributieve ruimte voor een verbeterslag bij andere supermarktaanbieders in Alblasserdam. Opmerkelijk is dat bijna alle supermarkten in de kern te klein zijn en kampen met ruimtelijke problemen op hun huidige locatie. Dit geldt met name voor de MCD en in mindere mate voor de Lidl en Coop. De distributieve ruimte biedt ook mogelijkheden voor andere plaatselijke aanbieders. Er zou een supermarkt-verbeterprogramma én een faseringsprogramma kunnen worden opgestart om de plaatselijke supermarktstructuur te verbeteren. In dit verbeterprogramma kan de verplaatsing van de plaatselijke buurtverzorgende MCD-supermarkt naar de Sportlaan goed passen. Ook zijn er voldoende kansen om de Sportlaan-locatie

  • App Delivers Recipes Using Ingredients from Supermarkets' Daily Discounts
    Innovation > Retail > App delivers recipes using ingredients from supermarkets' daily discounts APP DELIVERS RECIPES USING INGREDIENTS FROM SUPERMARKETS' DAILY DISCOUNTS RETAIL The Netherlands' Koken met aanbiedingen app offers recipes made of ingredients that are on sale in major supermarkets that day. Cookbooks are great for getting recipe ideas, but fairly useless if they involve ingredients that aren’t within the family budget. Hellmann’s Brazil has already provided meal suggestions based on individuals’ shopping baskets. Now the Netherlands’ Koken met aanbiedingen app offers recipes made of ingredients that are on sale in major supermarkets that day. Much like other recipe apps, Koken met aanbiedingen features ingredients lists, instructions and photo galleries to guide users through preparation of a wide range of dishes. The app keeps track of the discounted items across Dutch stores including Albert Heijn, Dirk, Lidl, C1000, Jumbo, Aldi and Plus, and all of the available recipes include at least one item that’s currently on sale. The aim is to help households ensure they’re saving money every time they make a meal with a recipe taken from the app. It also includes a savings meter that shows them exactly how much money they’ve saved by using the app. Even if discounts on a particular product come to an end, all of the recipes are archived and can be bookmarked for later use. Koken met aanbiedingen is available for free on the App Store and Google Play. Are there other ways to tailor recipes to households individual needs? 14th July 2014 Email: [email protected] Website: www.kokenmetaanbiedingen.nl .

  • Insectivores (Mammalia) from the Earliest Oligocene (MP 21) of Belgium
    Netherlands Journal of Geosciences / Geologie en Mijnbouw 83 (3): 187-192 (2004) Insectivores (Mammalia) from the earliest Oligocene (MP 21) of Belgium R. Smith Laekenveld 6, B-1780 Wemmel, Belgium. E-mail: [email protected] Manuscript received: February 2004; accepted: August 2004 Abstract Insectivore remains are not common in the Lower Oligocene of Europe. For this reason, the study of the earliest Oligocene insectivore fauna (MP 21) from Boutersem and Hoogbutsel, all together yielding nine species, representing five families, constitutes an important progress in the knowledge of the Late Eocene and Early Oligocene insectivore evolution. Some of the genera discovered in Belgium are known from upper Eocene sites (Saturninia, Amphidozotherium, Euronyctia, Eotalpa), whereas others are not known before the Oligocene (Butselia, Tetracus, Heterosoricinae ind.).The co-occurrence of primitive species of Nyctitheriidae with modern forms belonging to the Plesiosoricidae, Talpidae and Erinaceidae at the Eocene- Oligocene boundary suggests a transition fauna. Between the Priabonian (Late Eocene) and the Rupelian (Early Oligocene), the endemic European insectivores were in competition with the new immigrants. This faunal turnover is generally accepted as the 'Grande Coupure' event (the MP 21 event).

  • Investigation Into Albert Heijn's Dominant Market Position Within
    Investigation into Albert Heijn’s dominant market position within Amsterdam and whether it enables them to set prices significantly higher than its competitors’ Sean Blundell - 10398252 Abstract With a market share estimated to be around 30%, Albert Heijn is the indisputable market leader of the Dutch supermarket industry. It is a ubiquitous force throughout the Netherlands, especially within the city of Amsterdam, accounting for approximately 65% of all stores within the area. This spatial control, coupled with the evident lack of competition, may enable Albert Heijn to set prices significantly higher than its competitors, especially in those locations where competition is lacking. This study aims to provide evidence into the matter, via the analysis of prices. Over a four-month period, the prices of 35 items were collected from a sample of Albert Heijn stores and two of its competitors, Vomar and Dirk van den Broek. A largely descriptive statistical approach was adopted to analyse the data, with an adjusted Lerner index being utilised as the main method in distinguishing Albert Heijn’s market power. The overall Lerner index was found to be 0.1005, signifying that Albert Heijn does have considerably more market power than its competitors. Further analysis was focused on differentiating between AH’s pricing in locations where there is competition compared to those where competition is absent. Prices were found to be higher in locations without competition, however, this difference was found to not be statistically significant. 1. Introduction Anyone who has spent an extended period of time in Amsterdam will be all too familiar with the ever-present Albert Heijn (AH).
