Alterations and full modernisations of fittings have revamped and updated the image of such stores as Sutton, Kilburn, Hitchin and Watford—all between December 1979 and the beginning of this financial year! By the end of 1980 the branches like Warehousing and shopjioors alike are rehabilitated through sheer hard work Horsham, Norbury, Churchill Square, during refits. Poole, Camberley, Wembley, Harpen- den, Barkingside, Stratford, Telford, Burton-on-Trent and Kettering, that have already been spring-cleaned or had their sales areas extended, are expected to be joined by five more in the Bromley area, four in Woking, six in Uxbridge, five in Romford and eight in Coventry. Several other stores will have some old gondolas replaced. This programme of improvements is even more ambitious than 1979 which was itself a record year. During the financial year 1979/80 JS spent over £2 million on modernisations and new fittings but this year's expenditure is likely to be over £6J million which (even allowing for inflation) is an impressive increase.

    Does food retail access influence dietary intake?

Abstract The extent to which the food retail environment, including the availability, price and quality of foodstuffs, has an impact on what people eat remains unclear. This study aimed to determine whether the retail environment, of a household‟s usual main food store or of the area surrounding the home, is independently associated with the dietary intake of individual householders. The study employed a cross-sectional design and comprised simultaneous surveys of all retail outlets selling foodstuffs, and of households and the individuals living in them in the city of Newcastle upon Tyne, UK in 2000-2002. 5044 adults aged 16-97 years living in 3153 households provided data, including a 134-item food frequency questionnaire (FFQ) and detailed socio-demographic information. Detailed data on 33 commonly consumed foods was obtained from 560 food stores.

  • 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.
