supermarket, higher levels of customer satisfaction with affordable price and improved 
quality of services are achieving or not .The study also shows whether the customers who 
deals with various service providers product and service are satisfied with the service 
quality an allied parameter attached to it or not. As competition in supermarket sector is 
increasing day by day and all supermarkets are in a run to increase their sales, at times 
tend to ignore the satisfaction level of the customers. The supermarkets in order to lure

satisfaction while buying a product. It has been found that the satisfaction level of 
customers of Jyotiba supermarket is quite good for many of the factors related with both 
product and service. But there is still scope for improvement for Jyotiba supermarket in 
the context of customers. Jyotiba supermarket should try to increase the efficiency of its 
sales person. Proper training should be given to them where they should be told as how to 
improve relation with the customers, become a good listener, perform their duties 
efficiently so that overall satisfaction level of customers can be increased. Thus although 
Jyotiba supermarket has strong supermarket position in Pune city, it can further 
strengthen its brand through customer in Pune city through the above discussed customer

Introduction 
Customer satisfaction is the key word used by the business people for the success of 
organization in the present days, due to the increase of heavy competition in every 
product line, it becomes difficult for companies to retain the customers for longer time. 
So to retain the customers for longer time the marketer has to do only one things i.e., 
customer satisfaction. If customers are fully satisfied by the product it not only run the 
organization successfully but also fetch many benefits for the company. They are less 
process sensitive and they remain customer for a longer period. They buy additional 
products overtimes as the company introduce related products or improved products. So 
customer satisfaction are gaining a lot of importance in the present day. Every company 
is conducting survey on customer satisfaction level of their products to make the products 
up to the satisfaction level of customer. Jyotiba supermarket in Pune was facing an un 
recognized challenge. They Were not achieving their targeted sale even after putting 
special promotional activities. Here my research has its own importance as Jyotiba 
supermarket could not understand the customer need or their buying behavior. My 
research will help them to recognize what exactly is the customers need and expectation 
to enhance their shopping. Customers going to any supermarket have two important 
needs, the product range offered and low price compared to other competitors. The 
research tells us the satisfaction level in the product range, pricing and other services 
provided. This research will help Jyotiba supermarket to find out what the customers 
need and accordingly they can satisfy the customers. The research was conducted with a 
view to find out what the customers need and does Jyotib supermarket approach in 
meeting their needs is satisfactory or not.My study is based on a survey done on 
customers of a supermarket named Jyotiba Retail Shoppe. Jyotiba supermarket is a new 
type of market which came into existence in India since 1995. My study is on 
determining the customers buying behavior of customers in Jyotiba supermarket and the 
satisfaction level of customers in Jyotiba Retail Shoppe. My study will find out the 
current status of Jyotiba supermarket and determine where it stands in the current market. 
This market field survey will help in knowing the present customers tastes and 
preferences. It will help me in estimating the customers future needs, wants & demands.

2.6 4 P’s of Jyotiba Supermarket 
2.6.1 PRODUCT 
Jyotiba Supermarket offers the maximum variety for every category of product. The 
product is the same in every store in the city but the brand options are more in Jyotiba 
Supermarket and the quantity for each product is not limited to large packs only. The 
commodities sold by the retail chain includes its “own products” which get a ready

16 
2.6.2 PRICE 
Price is the critical point in a competitive industry. Jyotiba Supermarket works on a 
low cost model. It considers its discounted price as its USP. There is an average 
discount of 6-8% on all items in respect to their MRP. Prices of products are low 
because it is able to secure stock directly from the manufacturer. There are huge 
synergies in terms of bulk purchasing, transportation and central warehousing. These 
all factors are very helpful for the retailers to keep low prices. 
 Value Pricing 
 Promotional Pricing 
Low Interest Financing 
Psychological Discounting 
Special Event Pricing 
 Differentiated Pricing 
Time Pricing 
 Bundling 
2.6.3 PLACE 
Place means the location of the business. Jyotiba Supermarket has always worked on 
cheap locations. It targets semi-urban population with its placement. Its strategy is to find 
a low-cost location and it never goes for hot spots in the city. It relied on promotional 
activities to make up for unattractive locations. 
 Initially Identifies Future/Potential development areas. 
 Acquire such areas at an early phase before the real estate value booms. 
 Located at high traffic areas. 
 Design to look crowded.
17 
2.6.4 PROMOTION 
Jyotiba Supermarket has huge promotion budgets. The biggest idea behind all 
advertisements is to make people do bulk shopping. There are 2 types of promotional 
strategies of Jyotiba Supermarket. One is the advertisement which promotes the brand 
and creates awareness towards people. It is not targeted at promoting each store but only 
creates an image of Jyotiba Supermarket as low-cost shopping option. 
Credit system 
Low prize 
Best quality
18 
2.6 SWOT ANALYSIS 
2.7.1 Strengths: 
Maximum number of varieties: People prefer those places where they can get the 
maximum products they need and Jyotiba Supermarket provides vast range of products 
under one roof helping in attracting customer and their family to shop together and enjoy 
the experience. 
High brand equity: Jyotiba Supermarket has created high brand equity through its 
promotions and marketing it has created a different image for its products as the cheap 
and best. 
New promotions and schemes of low prices and discounts: Jyotiba Supermarket 
always offers new schemes of low prices and gives discounts in products like Jyotiba 
Supermarket offers the Festival Offers in which it offers the lowest of prices than other 
days.
19 
2.7.2 Weaknesses: 
Overcrowded: During weekends the place is overcrowded with people and sometime 
even there is the situation of closing the store due to it. 
Checkout can be extremely slow: There can be seen a long queue on the billing 
counters making the consumer wait for hours due to the slow service and the crowd. 
Perception of low price=low quality: Generally people think that if any product has low 
price then the quality of the product will be low as they think quality comes with price. 
Targets at the middle class and upper middle class only: It targets at the middle and 
upper middle class due to which it ignores the upper and elite class people as they are the 
cream of the society who are ready to pay any price for the quality and product they need. 
2.7.3 Opportunities: 
Jyotiba Supermarket can enter into production of various products due to its in depth 
understanding of customers’ tastes and preferences. Nowadays people prefer going to one 
big store and buy everything instead of visiting different places for different items and 
waste time. So Jyotiba Supermarket can expand the business in smaller cities as there is a 
lot of opportunity. Lot of potential in the rural market. 
2.7.4 Threats: 
High business risk involved: Jyotiba Supermarket investment is very large so it is 
obvious that there is high business risk involved. 
Lot of competitors: There are a lot of malls like Central ,Big Bazaar ,Mega Mart which 
is a big threat to Jyotiba Supermarket. 
Less Parking Space: Customers are not satisfied with the parking space availability 
provided by Jyotiba Supermarket. Hence it’s a threat of Jyotiba Supermarket as it may 
loose its customers because of less parking space availability.

SUGGESTIONS & RECOMMENDATIONS 
44
45 
8. Suggestions & Recommendations 
1. It was observed that the vegetables and fruits were bought once or twice a week in 
bulk, by the end it would get stale and thus it was suggested that bringing more 
fresh vegetables and fruits from the market daily would be a better solution as 
most complaints arises in vegetables freshness. 
2. Putting up proper sign boards would help to manage the customer’s confusion and 
also reduces the floor staffs work. 
3. The cash counters rush can be managed by a proper shifting system. The current 
system actually makes customers angry as when the shift is over the cashier 
leaves then the long queue will be shifted to other lines causing tension for the 
other cashier at the counters. 
4. The product displaying is not appropriate, “The customers should not find the 
products, the products should find the customer” 
5. To shift the vegetable section from the other products . As there a lot of 
vegetarians. 
6. Clothing section must have more variety and fresh stock. 
7. Jyotiba retail shopee should keep coming up with new offers in regular intervals, 
because offers are the most influencing factor which is responsible for customer 
purchase decision.
CHAPTER – 9 
LIMITATIONS 
46
47 
9. Limitations 
1. Being located in a locality were the customers are known to the owner , 
customers hesitate to give authentic views for specific question of the 
survey, which tends to be a drawback for the study. 
2. The data given by respondents is considered as true. 
3. For survey sample size is 300. 
4. Interpretations made are just mere assumption. 
5. Due to fast pace of life, some customers were not able to do justification 
to the questionnaire. 
6. As per company rule a lot of information was not disclose as the manager 
are busy in their daily schedule. It is not possible to spend more time in 
interaction with them.

So to retain the customers for longer time the marketer has to do only one things i.e., customer satisfaction. If customers are fully satisfied by the product it not only run the organization successfully but also fetch many benefits for the company. They are less process sensitive and they remain customer for a longer period. They buy additional products overtimes as the company introduce related products or improved products.

  • 16. 16 2.6.2 PRICE Price is the critical point in a competitive industry. Jyotiba Supermarket works on a low cost model. It considers its discounted price as its USP. There is an average discount of 6-8% on all items in respect to their MRP. Prices of products are low because it is able to secure stock directly from the manufacturer. There are huge synergies in terms of bulk purchasing, transportation and central warehousing. These all factors are very helpful for the retailers to keep low prices.  Value Pricing  Promotional Pricing Low Interest Financing Psychological Discounting Special Event Pricing  Differentiated Pricing Time Pricing  Bundling 2.6.3 PLACE Place means the location of the business. Jyotiba Supermarket has always worked on cheap locations. It targets semi-urban population with its placement. Its strategy is to find a low-cost location and it never goes for hot spots in the city. It relied on promotional activities to make up for unattractive locations.  Initially Identifies Future/Potential development areas.  Acquire such areas at an early phase before the real estate value booms.  Located at high traffic areas.  Design to look crowded.

  • 18. 18 2.6 SWOT ANALYSIS 2.7.1 Strengths: Maximum number of varieties: People prefer those places where they can get the maximum products they need and Jyotiba Supermarket provides vast range of products under one roof helping in attracting customer and their family to shop together and enjoy the experience. High brand equity: Jyotiba Supermarket has created high brand equity through its promotions and marketing it has created a different image for its products as the cheap and best. New promotions and schemes of low prices and discounts: Jyotiba Supermarket always offers new schemes of low prices and gives discounts in products like Jyotiba Supermarket offers the Festival Offers in which it offers the lowest of prices than other days.
  • 19. 19 2.7.2 Weaknesses: Overcrowded: During weekends the place is overcrowded with people and sometime even there is the situation of closing the store due to it. Checkout can be extremely slow: There can be seen a long queue on the billing counters making the consumer wait for hours due to the slow service and the crowd. Perception of low price=low quality: Generally people think that if any product has low price then the quality of the product will be low as they think quality comes with price. Targets at the middle class and upper middle class only: It targets at the middle and upper middle class due to which it ignores the upper and elite class people as they are the cream of the society who are ready to pay any price for the quality and product they need. 2.7.3 Opportunities: Jyotiba Supermarket can enter into production of various products due to its in depth understanding of customers’ tastes and preferences. Nowadays people prefer going to one big store and buy everything instead of visiting different places for different items and waste time. So Jyotiba Supermarket can expand the business in smaller cities as there is a lot of opportunity. Lot of potential in the rural market. 2.7.4 Threats: High business risk involved: Jyotiba Supermarket investment is very large so it is obvious that there is high business risk involved. Lot of competitors: There are a lot of malls like Central ,Big Bazaar ,Mega Mart which is a big threat to Jyotiba Supermarket. Less Parking Space: Customers are not satisfied with the parking space availability provided by Jyotiba Supermarket. Hence it’s a threat of Jyotiba Supermarket as it may loose its customers because of less parking space availability.
