- 26. • Big retailers in India have been accumulating losses, mainly because they have been on an expansion spree. An overall slowdown, rising interest rates, delay in realty projects, cash crunch and debt trap forced several retailers to shut shops and defer expansion since 2009. • We should not focus on take-overs and acquisitions, believe in ORGANIC growth by deploying ONE STORE AT A TIME and build a sustainable RETAIL BRAND. • A Tier 1 City should be considered as experimental/target city for next 3 financial years. And, gradually we should move on to Tier-2 from the 4th financial year. • Being in retail industry, helps us to generate huge customer data on the basis of buying pattern, consumption pattern, spending pattern which eventually can be used for cross- selling of other products. • Inbound FDI in Multi-Brand Retail is in news . We have to take it as a sign to invest and develop a home grown retail format in Gujarat and get it valuated by a PE firm or Venture Capitalist Fund after 4-5 Years in Operation. Kindly note, the valuation will totally depend on the brand equity which we are going to build-up on the given time-frame. KEY POINTS TO THINK
