This document summarizes a study on the service gap analysis of footwear retail outlets in India. The study aims to analyze the gap between customer expectations of service and the actual service provided by footwear retail outlets. It uses a sample of 100 customers and statistical analysis methods like ANOVA. The findings show that most customers are loyal but expect timely discounts, exchanges for damaged products, and information on new arrivals. The study suggests that retailers should focus more on customer expectations, offer equal treatment to new customers, and advertise offers more effectively to reduce gaps in customer expectations.

The study of Factors Affecting Consumer Preferences of Shopping at Organized ...IJAEMSJORNAL
The organized retail sector has experienced profound shift in the last decade due to change in the social, cultural & business environment. The primary focus of this research paper is consumer behavior & their shift towards organized retail shopping from traditional unorganized retail shopping taking into consideration of their purchasing pattern as well as shift in their perception which changes during their course of organized retail shopping experience. And also to check the hypothesis that the consumers prefer organized retail because of heavy discounts, ease of access and service delivery.This paper also highlights the challenges faced by retail industry.
Supply side dynamics of Boutique Fashion in BangladeshIOSRJBM
As a fast growing industry the boutique fashion is the lifeblood of Bangladeshi economy. There are a lots of potential small boutique wear producers for inclusive growth in our economy. However, few studies examined their development, challenges and future prospects. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to investigate the sustainability and growth potential of small boutique wear producers in Bangladesh. A survey and individual interviews were conducted with professionals and owners of the boutique fashions. A triple triangle factors analysis was used to indentify challenges at the firm internal, industry and macro level for ensuring sustainability and growth potential. Based on the findings, an action plan is proposed to take effective decisions in order to enhance the supply side dynamics in the long run. The study has implications for small boutique fashion wear producers and policymakers.
There has been a tremendous amount of
literature and discussion on retail formats and present concern
seems to be the viability of various formats, particularly in
the Indian context. Whereas the idea of retailing has caught
up the fancy of corporate investors including some of the big
names in the Indian corporate world, and many of them have
diversified, integrated and changed various operating
parameters with respect to improving the service efficiency and
quality, the main question remains as to the profitable
operating format, size and display characteristics.
Transferring and applying manufacturing principles and
practices to improve both service efficiency and service
quality is an important area of research in service operations.
Research work advances this stream of research by examining
the compatibility of operating efficiency and service quality.
Specifically, our research paper addresses the following
questions: Do operating efficiency and service quality have to be
traded off, or can they exist in unison (are they compatible)
What aspects of service quality have a stronger association
with operating efficiency? How synergies from a combination of
retail formats can be used to optimize profitability of retail
operations? Overall, our analyses suggest important strategic
decision-making implications for service operations managers
and provide novel insights for academic research.
Whereas the operating margins and profits have not given
any incentive for promoters to invest in organized retail
business, the Indian retailers have been on the lookout for a
successful formula for increasing margins and profits. The
future of Indian retailing will hinge on finding a suitable
answer by any means: Be it a joint venture or cooperative
effort; or an integrated effort with the participation of
multiple retailers under one roof and making use of synergies
and cost efficiencies to improve bottom lines – which
incidentally is the most important concern of organized retail
industry. The future of Indian retailing in the organized
formats is still a question mark; but as the industry goes through
the evolutionary process we need to wait and see what the
future holds for this upcoming industry as it is promising for
employment opportunity! Developments in social centric
marketing techniques and social networking will have a profound
influence

US$394 billion in 2005. The organized retailing sector in India is only 3% and is expected
to rise to 25- 30% by the year 2015. There are under construction at present around 325
departmental stores, 300 new malls, and 1500 supermarkets. This proves that there is a
tremendous scope for growth in the Indian retail market.
The growth of scope in the Indian retail market is mainly due to the change in the
consumer’s behavior. For the new generation have preference towards luxury commodities
which have been due to the strong increase in income, changing lifestyle, and demographic
patterns which are favorable. The scope of the Indian retail market have been seen by many
retail giants and that’s the reason that many new players are entering the India retail industry.
The major Indian retailers are:
• Pantaloons Retail India Ltd
• Shoppers Stop
• Bata India Ltd
• Music World Entertainment Ltd
Judging the scope for growth in the India retail industry many global retail giants are also
entering the Indian retail market. They are:
• Tesco
• Metro AG
• Wal- Mart
The scope for growth in the Indian retail market is seen mainly in the following cities:
• Mumbai
• Delhi
• Pune
• Ahmedabad
• Bangalore
• Hyderabad
• Kolkata
• Chennai
The scope of the Indian retail market is very vast. And for it to reach its full potential the
government and the Indian retailers will have to make a determined effort.
• Even though India has well over 5 million retail outlets of all sizes and styles (or non-
styles), the country sorely lacks anything that can resemble a retailing industry in the
modern sense of the term. This presents international retailing specialists with a great
opportunity.
• Just over 8 per cent of India's population is engaged in retailing (compared to 20 per
cent in the United States). There is no data on this sector's contribution to the GDP.
• Given the size, and the geographical, cultural and socio-economic diversity of India,
there is no role model for Indian suppliers and retailers to adapt or expand in the
Indian context.
• Local companies and local-foreign joint ventures are expected to more advantageously
positioned than the purely foreign ones in the fledgling organised India's retailing
industry

are accepted and made compensation for the damage for the product. Mostly loyal customers
expecting discount for the product at any time the make purchase. Most of the customers
asking exchange for the product which has damage. According to the customer’s opinion,
retailer should concentrate on ambience of the showroom. Loyal customers are eager to
receive new arrivals of products with better technology. Customers are really happy with the
staffs while making purchase as well as making complaint.
5.1 SUGGESTION
Offers are allocated only for the loyal customers at anytime and not for the new
customers, so it is advised that new customers also should be welcomed equally. High price
of the product threatening the customers those who are not affordable to buy and checking
out without making any purchase, employee should understand the customer’s abilities for
the purchase. Sometimes the announcement of the offers are not reaching the customer (both
the loyal and new customer), retailer need to concentrate on advertisement effectively. The
company has to provide sales promotion tools which benefit the customers such as tour
packages, free purchase coupon and free additional product. When the retailer receiving
damage product for free service, making must delay to return to the customers which making
the customer feel bad. Retailer should complete the task as soon as possible to attract the
customers.
5.2 CONCLUSION
In the present situation, there is high competition exist in case of retail services. If the
retailer wants to lead the retail services, retailer used to get suggestion from the customer
regarding their expectation, taste and preference periodically. Retailer has to provide has to
provide information regarding introduction of the new product and the offers declared twice
in a year. Personal contact should be maintained with the loyal customers not making to
move to rival retailer. As the retailer is going to suggest the technology of the product to the
customer, first the retailer has to be studied properly. This study will be helpful for
understanding the motivational factors for the retailers to suggest a particular technology of
the product.
