BOARD MEMBERS Tom Toner, Chairman Peter Cassells, General Secretary, Irish Congress of Trade Unions Sean Dorgan, Chief Executive, IDA Ireland Dan Flinter, Chief Executive, Enterprise Ireland Paul Haran, Secretary General, Department of Enterprise, Trade and Employment Professor Michael Hillery, Chair of Manufacturing Engineering, University of Limerick John Lynch, Director General, FÁS William Murphy, Partner, Tynan Dillon and Company Fergal O’Rourke, Partner, Taxation, PricewaterhouseCoopers William Scally, Economist Professor Yvonne Scannell, Trinity College John Travers, Chief Executive, Forfás Page i THE DYNAMICS OF THE RETAIL SECTOR IN IRELAND Foreword The services sector will be the largest contributor to employment growth over the period to 2010. The retail sector is the largest part of services, accounting for 11 per cent of total employment in the economy. The retail sector plays a critical role in sustaining competitiveness. Strong competition in the sector has kept prices low and contributed to Ireland’s low inflation. The retail sector also contributes to competitiveness by influencing Irish manufacturers and suppliers to increase productivity. Forfás data indicates that around 50 per cent of the output of Irish- owned food and clothing firms is sold on the Irish market. Over the years, retailers have played a key role in providing a ‘shop window’ for Irish manufacturers and assisting them in launching new products and developing the scale and competitiveness required to compete on international markets. Supplying to the international retail market has served to enhance innovation, quality and competitiveness of Irish manufacturers. The pace of structural change in the retail sector in Ireland, underway for the last decade, has significantly accelerated with increased international ownership. This is evidenced in the development of larger sized outlets, variations in formats to meet locational and demographic needs and the growth of symbol groups. Structural change is being driven by the search for economies of scale, increased market share, vertical integration of the supply chain, consolidation among the major companies and the integration of information and communications technologies. The last five years have witnessed a dramatic increase in cross-border retailer expansion and the internationalisation of large retailers across Europe and the US. In order to better understand the impact of these changes on Ireland’s economy, Forfás commissioned this review✝ of the dynamics of the retail sector. The review was undertaken in consultation with the retail sector itself and with suppliers and distributors in Ireland and internationally. The review analyses the nature of the change underway and sets out the strategic and operational implications for: • Retailers; • Manufacturers and suppliers; • Distributors; and • Consumers. A high level of competition in Irish retail markets is ultimately good for the consumer and for national competitiveness. This requires Irish retailers and manufacturers to heighten their awareness of the changes underway and consider how best to respond. The major strategic challenge for Irish retailers is how to respond to the increasing flow of international retailers into the Irish marketplace. For Irish manufacturers, the challenge is how best to respond to the emergence of a small number of multinational retail chains with significant market share. Increasing retail concentration will result in purchasing for the Irish market being centralised. The ‘own-label’ share of the Irish grocery market is forecast to exceed 20 per cent within three to four years. These developments require manufacturers to strategically reposition their businesses, to develop the scale required for supplying re t a i l e r s ’ national and international needs and to increase their supply-chain efficiencies. ✝ review was undertaken by a consortium of KPMG Management Consulting, Fitzpatrick Associates Economic Consultants and the Centre for Retail Studies, UCD. THE DYNAMICS OF THE RETAIL SECTOR IN IRELAND Page ii Distributors will face challenges posed by the centralised distribution systems of the major retailers. Efficiencies in distribution will reduce the number of deliveries to each retail outlet. The benefits of increased competition and efficiency are being passed on to the consumer in lower prices. However, the retail industry needs to continue to respond to the changing lifestyles and purchasing requirements of consumers. The Government support agencies, particularly Enterprise Ireland, Shannon Development and An Bord Bia, have a key role in assisting Irish suppliers respond to the challenges. The regulatory environment has an important contribution to make in retaining the spatial balance of retail activity in the regions and in ensuring balanced development in urban areas. Irish retailers and manufacturers that are leading and adapting to the structural changes are reaping the benefits of the buoyancy in consumer demand in the Irish economy. In particular, Irish manufacturers are benefiting from the opportunities for accessing new markets by supplying to multinational retailers abroad. For those adopting a ‘wait and see’ approach, the need to develop a response is immediate. These and associated issues are discussed in detail in this review. The analysis set out and conclusions drawn will be of interest to retailers, manufacturers, distributors, consumers, the State development agencies and policy makers.

  • Supervalu: How a Brave Local Brand Defied the Forces of Globalisation
    SuperValu: How a brave local brand defied the forces of globalisation DDFH&B COMPANY PROFILE AGENCY The DDFH&B Group consists of DDFH&B Advertising, Goosebump, The Reputations Agency, RMG and Mindshare Media – making it one of the largest Irish companies in creative advertising, media buying and customer relationship/digital marketing. Together, they provide channel-neutral, integrated marketing communications campaigns that deliver real, measurable results. They achieve this level of integration by working in a number of small, multi-disciplined teams, calling it ‘fun sizing’. They continue to be one of the most successful agencies in Ireland, working with clients such as Kerry Foods, SuperValu, The National Lottery, eir, Littlewoods, Lucozade and Molson Coors. CLIENT AWARD LONG TERM EFFECTIVENESS Sponsored by GOLD 1 SuperValu: How a brave local brand defied the forces of globalisation DDFH&B INTRODUCTION & BACKGROUND This is a story about long term effectiveness. It is a story about how a brave local retailer with daring ambition wrestled back leadership from Tesco and defied the forces of globalisation. SuperValu was founded in 1979 with a base of just 16 stores, mainly in Munster. While they had grown to 182 stores by 2004, and acquired Superquinn (another Irish retailer) in 2011, they were a retailer with two speeds, an urban speed and a rural speed. The urban speed was still reeling from the Superquinn takeover, when stores were rebranded to SuperValu in 2014. Superquinn had a more premium brand perception, much closer to the Waitrose proposition in the UK. Consumers were in a state of chassis as they felt they were paying convenience store prices in large supermarkets and were unfamiliar with the brand and mistrustful of its quality.
