QUARTERLY PERFORMANCE FUTURE RETAIL | ANNUAL REPORT 2016 -17 | 5 NATIONAL FOOTPRINT The diversity and heterogeneity of the Indian market makes many compare India with the whole of Europe. Building a national footprint for a retailer isn’t just about finding the right location and real estate to operate from, but also developing a deep understanding of the community, culture, preferences, highs and lows of consumption for every geography that it operates in. Over time, each store integrates with the people, society and communities it operates in. While Big Bazaar is present in almost every state of the country, the small store networks are built on a cluster model. The easyday network has a formidable presence in Haryana, Punjab, National Capital Region and western Uttar Pradesh. The newly merged Heritage network has a strong presence in Hyderabad, along with stores in Bengaluru and Chennai. Thus building a nation-wide, complimentary network that echoes the pulse of India. 6 | NEW RETAIL FUTURE RETAIL | ANNUAL REPORT 2016 -17 | 7 LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN Dear Stakeholders, on prime properties across have been working on 240 large and small town the objective of ‘Getting We are pleased to share in the country.
