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
customer, comes out with attractive customer schemes but in spite of increase in their
revenue, sometimes neglects the customer satisfaction and profitability. So this study is a
one of a kind study where an attempt has been made to know the customers preference
and behavior they show towards a particular product and services and their level of
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

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

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

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.

always offers new schemes of low prices and gives discounts in products like Jyotiba

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.

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.
