    Submission on the Productive Economy Policy Discussion Paper

    From: Roger Drake Sent: Tuesday, 19 February 2019 4:35 PM To: DPTI:Planning Engagement Subject: Shopping Centre Zoning Follow Up Flag: Follow up Flag Status: Flagged To Whom it May Concern Drakes Supermarkets is a privately owned supermarket group, employing some 6000 staff and operating 37 supermarkets in South Australia; and we have been investing in the States independent supermarket retail market since 1974 with not only supermarkets, but also newsagencies and licensed post offices. As the owner of the business, I believe in the “centre hierarchy approach” (ie there should be a regional centre, a district centre and a local or neighbourhood centre.) Retailers like us have invested large amounts of money knowing there is some protection. I am gravely concerned when we see larger corporations (ie Coles, Woolworths, Aldi & especially Kaufland) investing outside the existing zoning requirements. If people are to invest in retail shopping zones, I believe they need some security knowing their investment has the ability to serve the community but also able to sustain competition. It is easy for the large players to invest outside the current zones knowing full well that the land they acquire is cheaper but all this does is splits the existing zoning. A perfect example of what I call “bad planning” is the Port Canal Development; whereby clearly there was a zone at the centre of Port Adelaide, and then another zone was created; namely the Port Canal, and now we have what I believe is two substandard shopping centre developments. This is just one example, and there are plenty more examples, especially when we examine country towns.

Thank you for the opportunity to testify before the Crime Subcommittee today on the growing problem of organized retail crime. My name is Karl Langhorst, Director of Loss Prevention for Randall’s/Tom Thumb of Texas, a division of Safeway. Safeway Inc. is a Fortune 100 company and one of the largest food and drug retailers in North America. The company operates 1,738 stores in the United States and western Canada and had annual sales of $40.2 billion in 2006. I have been invited here to share with you our experience with the increasing problem of organized retail crime (ORC). Retailers have always had to deal with shoplifting as part of doing business, but let me be clear, ORC is not shoplifting. It is theft committed by professionals, in large volume, for resale. It is being committed against retailers of every type at an increasing rate. Safeway estimates a loss of $100 million dollars annually due to ORC. According to the FBI, the national estimate is between $15-30 billion annually. Let me describe for you how sophisticated and organized these enterprises are.

By: Rob Andrews Formatted: Font: 10 pt My contention is that many boards, CEOs, and leadership teams do not fully understand the business they’re in. 74% of acquisitions fail. 23% have a neutral effect, and a miniscule 3% actually result in increased enterprise value, principally due to a lack of understanding of the acquisition. Here is an article citing one perfect example: Jim Dudlicek, Editor-in-Chief of Stagnitomedia, the leading resource periodical for specialty, gourmet, and convenience retailing said it perfectly in an article published October 159, 2013:.

    Retail Globalization and Household Welfare: Evidence from Mexico

    Retail Globalization and Household Welfare: Evidence from Mexico David Atkin Massachusetts Institute of Technology and National Bureau of Economic Research Benjamin Faber University of California Berkeley and National Bureau of Economic Research Marco Gonzalez-Navarro University of California Berkeley The arrival of global retail chains in developing countries is causing a radical transformation in the way households source their consump- tion. This paper draws on a rich collection of Mexican microdata to es- timate the effect of foreign supermarket entry on household welfare and decomposes this effect into six channels. We find that foreign en- try causes large welfare gains for the average household predominantly driven by a reduction in the cost of living—both through price reduc- tions at domestic stores and through the direct consumer gains from foreign stores. These gains are, on average, positive for all income groups but are regressive. I.
