How Zara Spent $0 in Advertising To Become The World's #1 Fashion RetailerNitant Narang
Unlike competing brands, Zara does no advertising, it scarcely appears on billboards; its collections do not figure in fashion shows; neither does it lobby for Vogue’s glossy pages, nor does it associate itself with any celebrities or high-profile fashion designers. Yet, despite bending every rule and defying all the conventions within the fashion industry, Zara, with a revenue of $15.9 Billion (2016) and 2,100 stores across the world, is one of the most valuable companies in the world.

11. THE STORES
1) Zara stores were uniform including as to lighting
fixtures and window display, as well as the
arrangements of targeted floor space of 1200 square
meters.
2) The model store located at Zara head quarters
(Arteixo, Spain) was kept up-to-date in terms of
current product selection.
3) Store locations were upscale in prime high street
areas.
4) The uncluttered arrangement of goods in uncrowded
spaces coordinated by color made the experience of
shopping more like that in high end luxury stores and
quite different from that offered by “value” marketers.

13. PRICING STRATEGY
Zara contrasted its pricing strategy to many others in its
business which set price equal to cost plus a target
margin.
During its long expansion through 2001 zara printed
price tags for multiple jurisdictions showing on the single
tag all of its different prices by country. This simplified the
tagging procedure and also permitted goods to be
moved from store to store with out retagging. And also
permitted goods to be transhipped between one country
to another with out retagging.
However at the beginning of 2002, zara switched to a
system of local price marketing in the stores using a
device that read the bar code and printed the appropriate
local price.
14. GROWTH STRATEGY
Zara's growth had been outward from its base in Spain,
with the locations for new stores chosen selectively to
stake out sequentially new territories that could be
supported within the Zara model.
Most of the stores were company owned although in
some markets Zara had opened a small number of
stores through franchises and in some markets Zara had
opened stores through alliances.
Zara did not establish local distribution centers and
warehouses when it entered a market or engaged in
store opening promotions.
