OLD RETAIL VS MODERN RETAIL FORMAT
Shoes and Accessories|Shoes & Accessories Feb'20
The biggest charm of traditional retail lies in its interpersonal relations —between the retailer/owner and his customers, field agents, suppliers and wholesalers. Customers earlier remained loyal to their local retailer who understood their demands and had a personalised stock available for them.

OLD RETAIL VS MODERN RETAIL FORMAT

We’re living in a world of excesses and indulgences — increase in disposable incomes, multiple products and a host of retail channels for customers to choose from.

Small shops run privately by the owners themselves, who kept a close track on the requirements of his loyal customers and stocked up accordingly; the owner genuinely being concerned about the health, family, and other such personal details of customers he’s known for a long time -- were all part of the old charm of traditional retail. Every sale hinged on the inter-personal relations between the customer and the retailer, who in turn, had a great rapport with field agents that went back to the wholesalers, each relationship keeping up a healthy and thriving cycle of demand and supply.
