1. retailers:"bigger=better"
-superstores+category killers proliferated
-mainstay retail stores elbowed
-average grocery 50% more than 1980s, Wal-mart 30% more
2. pendulum swinging back:
-largest US retailers experimenting small-store formats
-manage all stores in area as network
3.D.G.: network strategy: matches wal-mart price but compete
-profitable, growing fast
-success spawned by :FD
4.less is more: small store advantage
-guarantee one of our outlet closer to a given shopper
-customers get from car to stores, find products easier
-overwhelmed by big store
-broader product selection
-low operating costs
-But now small stores networks enjoy same scale advantage
5. product selection: example
-broad choice of categories, not within category
-research: big store-penalized for too many different brands within the same product
-1990s:KS:drygoods sell<1 unit/week
-FMI: too much variety: threshold of variety can't add total budget
-small stores: offset size advantage
6.novel way to increase small store variety: use electronic kiosk
-enough actual item in the store but supply kiosk to full product line
less costs: network small store
-as cheap as big ones
-full-truckload delivery
less personal+inventory costs:
-assumed: large store: 30 workers
but 20 small ones:2 each
-big store adv diminished when little ones managed centrally
7. virtual employees:
-technology reduces personal requirements: MB interactive video screen
operating small stores different from large ones:
-small stores: trained employees to different tasks
-large store: employees specialized job
-different, retailers need rethink
