  • 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.

This publication is an open access article. businessperspectives.org Innovative Marketing, Volume 10, Issue 1, 2014 Charles S. Mayer (Hungary), M. Reza Bakshandeh (Hungary) The SME’s fight back: or David can win if he has big enough stones Abstract This paper describes how two local Hungarian retail cooperatives, made up of SME’s, have been able to capture a large market share, and put sufficient pressure on a major Belgian multinational, the Louis Delhaize Group, to withdraw from the market. While clearly other factors were also at work in the disenchantment of Delhaize, leading to its withdrawal from Hungary, the case study gives a recipe for the survival of local SME’s facing a frontal attack by MNEs. Two different business models are described. Keywords: SME’s, underdogs, MNE’s, Hungary, retail competition, cooperatives. Introduction In 1999, the Delhaize group acquired one of the early entrants into Hungary, the Julius Meinl group of In December 2011, Belgian-based Louis Delhaize Austria. Julius Meinl consisted of 4 chains (Julius Group, which owned the Match, Cora and Profi Meinl, Jeee Diszkont, Jeee C+C, and Alfa), chains in Hungary, announced that it will cease all consisting of approximately 160 stores and 25 its activities, and exit the Hungarian market [15].

  • Bulgaria: Retail Market Update
    THIS REPORT CONTAINS ASSESSMENTS OF COMMODITY AND TRADE ISSUES MADE BY USDA STAFF AND NOT NECESSARILY STATEMENTS OF OFFICIAL U.S. GOVERNMENT POLICY Voluntary - Public Date: 5/18/2015 GAIN Report Number: BU1516 Bulgaria Post: Sofia Retail Market Update Report Categories: Retail Foods Market Development Reports Approved By: Russell J. Nicely, Agricultural Attaché Prepared By: Alexander Todorov, Marketing Assistant Report Highlights: This report contains information about Bulgaria’s retail food and beverage market. General Information Currently the number of modern grocery outlets in Bulgaria stands at nearly 3,900, which represents about 11% of total grocery retail outlets. According to one of the leading market research companies (iCAP), the leading top 50 retailers currently hold a combined market share of 46% which is likely to reach 50% in 2015 and close to 55% in 2016. The remaining 54% is held by almost 31,000 traditional grocery stores throughout the country. Retail chains operating in Bulgaria will continue to open new outlets. The latest retail survey made and published in the economic analyses section of a respected Bulgarian media outlet (Capital) shows that retail companies will continue to optimize their networks and close loss-making outlets. Discounters will see the most dynamic market growth. With the deepening of the economic crisis in 2012/2013 and reduced consumer purchasing power, tensions between local food suppliers and retailers intensified. The government drafted new legislation to regulate relations between food manufacturers and retailers, providing more favorable treatment for the first ones. The legislation was vetoed by the President at the second Parliament vote and never went into force.
