  • Global Vs. Local-The Hungarian Retail Wars
    Journal of Business and Retail Management Research (JBRMR) October 2015 Global Vs. Local-The Hungarian Retail Wars Charles S. Mayer Reza M. Bakhshandeh Central European University, Budapest, Hungary Key Words MNE’s, SME’s, Hungary, FMCG Retailing, Cooperatives, Rivalry Abstract In this paper we explore the impact of the ivasion of large global retailers into the Hungarian FMCG space. As well as giving the historical evolution of the market, we also show a recipe on how the local SME’s can cope with the foreign competition. “If you can’t beat them, at least emulate them well.” 1. Introduction Our research started with a casual observation. There seemed to be too many FMCG (Fast Moving Consumer Goods) stores in Hungary, compared to the population size, and the purchasing power. What was the reason for this proliferation, and what outcomes could be expected from it? Would the winners necessarily be the MNE’s, and the losers the local SME’S? These were the questions that focused our research for this paper. With the opening of the CEE to the West, large multinational retailers moved quickly into the region. This was particularly true for the extended food retailing sector (FMCG’s). Hungary, being very central, and having had good economic relations with the West in the past, was one of the more attractive markets to enter. We will follow the entry of one such multinational, Delhaize (Match), in detail. At the same time, we will note how two independent local chains, CBA and COOP were able to respond to the threat of the invasion of the multinationals.

  • Lidl Has Finally Opened in Atlanta: How Will This Affect the Atlanta Supermarket Landscape?! Powder Springs - 1/16 Snellville - 1/30 Mableton - 2/13
    Lidl has finally opened in Atlanta: How will this affect the Atlanta supermarket landscape?! Powder Springs - 1/16 Snellville - 1/30 Mableton - 2/13 Lidl’s has three store-openings set for Atlanta this month. The first is Powder Springs on 1/16/19, followed by Snellville on 1/30/19 and Mableton on 2/13/19. If you haven’t been to a Lidl before, it’s a good-looking store and simple to shop. Very similar to an ALDI, but larger and with the same emphasis on house brands at an extreme discount to name brand products. Lidl ( 36,000 sf) has created an interesting store model for the US. Its stores are significantly larger than ALDI’s (12,000 -15,000 sf) and smaller than the traditional Kroger (45,000-80,000) or Publix store models (42,000- 48,000 sf). As heavily reported, LIDLs initial store openings in the US did not bring the traffic or volumes they hoped for. By opening three stores in the same size format, LIDL is taking a risk. Many (including me) feel that they should be opening in more dense markets and with smaller stores. continued retail specialists retail strategies retail specialists retail strategies My prediction is that these three openings will have minimal impact on the Atlanta “supermarket and real estate market. The Atlanta MSA already has over 340 grocery stores and another three is not going to change the landscape. First, these are all free-standing locations, so there’s no new supply of small shop space for lease.

He regularly [email protected] travels across the US and Canada, @Stewart_IGD visiting stores, and meeting with senior retail and supplier teams. Costco continues to be one of the most successful retailers globally. For several years it has delivered consistent sales and profit growth, in the US and across its international markets. Currently it is the second largest retailer globally based on sales. At a time when other retailers have been testing and developing new store formats and aggressively pursuing ecommerce and digital initiatives, Costco has remained focused on its core offer. However, the retailer is making a more determined push with ecommerce and is set to expand its presence into two new markets this year. In this report we look at how the retailer plans to grow and develop over the next five years, and the opportunities for suppliers to engage in key markets. © IGD 2017 Source: IGD Research Page 2 Inside this report Costco today and tomorrow Costco in key markets Strategic priorities Supplier opportunities © IGD 2017 Page 3 Costco operates over 700 clubs across nine countries, with over 86m members.

  • Kroger: Value Trap Or Value Investment - a Deep Due Diligence Dive
    Kroger: Value Trap Or Value Investment - A Deep Due Diligence Dive seekingalpha.com /article/4115509-kroger-value-trap-value-investment-deep-due-diligence-dive Chuck 10/23/2017 Walston The acquisition of Whole Foods Market, announced by Amazon ( AMZN) last June sent shockwaves through the grocery industry. 1/20 When the deal was finalized in August, Amazon announced plans to lower the prices of certain products by as much as a third. The company also hinted at additional price reductions in the future. Amazon Prime members will be given special savings and other in-store benefits once the online retail giant integrates its point of sale system into Whole Foods stories. 2/20 Analysts immediately predicted a future of widespread margin cuts across the industry. Well before Amazon's entry into stick and brick groceries, Kroger ( KR) experienced deterioration in comparable store sales. 3/20 (Source: Kroger Investor Presentation slideshow) (Source: SEC Filings via SA contributor Quad 7 Capital) Additionally, Kroger's recent results reflect gross margin compression. 4/20 (Source: SEC Filings via SA contributor Quad 7 Capital) After the takeover, Whole Foods initiated a price war. According to Reuters, prices at a Los Angeles Whole Foods store are lower on some products than comparable goods sold in a nearby Ralph's store owned by Kroger. The Threat From Amazon Research conducted by Foursquare Labs Inc. indicates the publicity surrounding Amazon's recent acquisition of Whole Foods, combined with the announcement of deep price cuts, resulted in a 25% surge in customer traffic. Not content to attack conventional grocers with their panoply of online food services and margin cuts, Amazon registered a trademark application for a meal-kit service.

  • Discounters Go Digital: How Can Aldi and Lidl Tackle Grocery E-Commerce?
    DECEMBER 8, 2016 Discounters Go Digital: How Can Aldi and Lidl Tackle Grocery E-Commerce? Hard discounters Aldi and Lidl are moving into e-commerce in both the grocery and nongrocery categories. This year, Aldi announced it will move into the Chinese market purely through e-commerce, while Lidl Germany is planning to trial a grocery click-and-collect service in Berlin. These are our key takeaways on balancing no-frills discount with the added costs of e-commerce: 1) If discounters are willing to invest to build scale in grocery e- commerce, using “dark stores” dedicated to picking online orders seems to be a better option than picking from regular stores, due to the small size of the discounters’ stores. 2) New delivery options are lowering the costs of home delivery: using “Uberized” third-party couriers would be a more cost-effective, low- investment and scalable model than using temperature controlled, company-owned delivery trucks. This model is already being used by AmazonFresh in the UK. 3) We believe one significant challenge will be the deleveraging effect of smaller average basket sizes online: the highly limited choice offered by Aldi and Lidl will almost certainly yield lower online order values than at nondiscount rivals. This would make the economics of online retail even more detrimental for discounters than they are for their nondiscount peers.

  • 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).

  • Netherlands Retail Foods Benelux Food Retail Market
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Required Report - public distribution Date: 1/26/2010 GAIN Report Number: NL0002 Netherlands Retail Foods Benelux Food Retail Market Approved By: Stephen Huete Prepared By: Marcel Pinckaers Report Highlights: Despite the current economic situation, the turnover of the Benelux food retail market in 2009 was €52.7 billion, 4.4% higher than previous year. In addition, the food retail market continues to consolidate further. Post: The Hague Author Defined: Section I. Market Summary Benelux Food Retail Market Approximately 80 percent of the Dutch food retail outlets are full service supermarkets, operating on floor space between 500 and 1,500 square meters located downtown and in residential areas. The remaining 20 percent includes superstores located in industrial parks, convenience stores near human traffic and department stores. In Belgium, full service supermarkets, like Colruyt and AD Delhaize, account for an estimated 75 percent of the market. The share of superstores and convenience stores in Belgium is higher than in the Netherlands, an estimated 25%. In Luxembourg, full service supermarkets like Cactus, Alvo and Match dominate the market as well. In all three markets, independent food retail stores are increasingly leaving the scene. On-going consolidation in the retail market, changing consumer demands and shrinking margins seem to drive this trend. The top 3 biggest retailers in the Netherlands, Albert Heijn, C1000, and Jumbo [1] , have a market share of 56 percent. The market for discounters like Aldi and Lidl has stabilized around 15%.
