Post approx. 2007 Destination Shop Aldi & Co. / Drugstores Top-up Shop Supermarkets / Hypermarkets Perception of mainstream retailers Listing fees • Listing fees are extremely difficult to quantify due to the number of variables - e.g. product category, - category growth, - manufacturer’s promotion programme, - consumer advertising etc. • No fixed listing amounts. • Depending on volume and number of stores, can be anywhere between € 10-75,000. • Discounters require net, net, net costing with no need for the manufacturer to keep in reserve any other support money. • Promotion investment can often offset / reduce a listing fee. Promotions • Sales leaflets (German: Handzettel) - Most common tool - Published weekly - Often combined with price reductions - Financed by the amount of advertising cost WKZ (Werbekosten- zuschuss or advertising allowance) which is discussed in the annual review meetings - Fees are subject to individual negotiations with the buyer - Often combined with product listings • Off-shelf placements (German: Displays) - In (selected) stores - Often only during the promotion week - Stock on ¼ Chep pallets • Further promotional tools are in-store tastings (German: Verkostungen). EDEKA’s independents etc. are especially keen on this type of promotion as individual store sales benefit from this action. Contents I. Green Seed Group – who we are II.

  • The Endgame in European Grocery
    THE ENDGAME IN EUROPEAN GROCERY EXPECT HALF AS MANY LARGE GROCERS IN EUROPE BY 2025 THE ENDGAME IN EUROPEAN GROCERY EXPECT HALF AS MANY LARGE GROCERS IN EUROPE BY 2025 Against a weak economic backdrop, old growth models based on store expansion, national consolidation, and diversification are no longer delivering the like-for-likes board members and investors want to see. As well as a saturated marketplace, there is increasing competition from discounters and newer online retailers like AmazonFresh. In response, we believe that the European grocery market will begin consolidating internationally so that, by 2025, the total number of large grocers in Europe will have halved. Weak demand, a decline of traditional growth engines, and the aggressive growth of specialist competitors such as discounters (Exhibit 1) will continue to drive the next ten years’ of change in European grocery. As the pressure mounts, expect to see more headlines about price wars, stock value erosion, races to form buying alliances, and even the occasional market exit. With this in mind, we think there are four questions grocers should be considering today to ensure a successful future, listed below and explained in more detail in the rest of the article: How can we deliver a step change in our approach to cost? 1 Cost leadership is becoming a necessity. How can asset productivity be increased? 2 Only business models with high levels of asset productivity will survive. What are our options to grow internationally? 3 Scale matters – and international growth is one of the few ways to drive scale. What more could we be doing to hold on to and build 4 customer relationships? With new competitors on the scene, increasing the ‘stickiness’ of customers is crucial.

Yet reports of severe human rights abuses, including forced labour, slavery, human trafficking and child labour, are rife. Modern slavery is endemic in this industry, where the tuna supply chain is remote, complex and opaque. Few stories leak out about conditions but, when they do, they are often horrendous: with migrant workers bought and sold as unpaid slaves, and tossed overboard if they complain or get injured. In this context of abuse, the buyers – canned tuna companies and supermarkets – have an obligation to ensure their supply chains are not infested with slavery. Increasingly, they also have legal obligations under UK and Australian modern slavery laws.

  • The Reason Given for the UK's Decision to Float Sterling Was the Weight of International Short-Term Capital
    - Issue No. 181 No. 190, July 6, 1972 The Pound Afloat: The reason given for the U.K.'s decision to float sterling was the weight of international short-term capital movements which, despite concerted intervention from the Bank of England and European central banks, had necessitated massive sup­ port operations. The U.K. is anxious that the rate should quickly o.s move to a "realistic" level, at or around the old parity of %2. 40 - r,/, .• representing an effective 8% devaluation against the dollar. A w formal devaluation coupled with a wage freeze was urged by the :,I' Bank of England, but this would be politically embarrassing in the }t!IJ light of the U.K. Chancellor's repeated statements that the pound was "not at an unrealistic rate." The decision to float has been taken in spite of a danger that this may provoke an international or European monetary crisis. European markets tend to consider sterling as the dollar's first line of defense and, although the U.S. Treasury reaffirmed the Smithsonian Agreement, there are fears throughout Europe that pressure on the U.S. currency could disrupt the exchange rate re­ lationship established last December. On the Continent, the Dutch and Belgians have put forward a scheme for a joint float of Common Market currencies against the dollar. It will not easily be implemented, since speculation in the ex­ change markets has pushed the various EEC countries in different directions. The Germans have been under pressure to revalue, the Italians to devalue. Total opposition to a Community float is ex­ pected from France (this would sever the ties between the franc and gold), and the French also are adamant that Britain should re­ affirm its allegiance to the European monetary agreement and return to a fixed parity.
