METRO's Cash & Carry business model is based on aBusiness to Business (B2B) concept and focuses onmeeting all the needs and requirements of businesscustomers. It is a modern format of wholesale trading,catering only to business customers.

"Cash & Carry" means that the customers pick thegoods themselves, pay in cash and transport theirgoods with their own vehicles. The advantage ascompared with conventional wholesale lies in the morecompetitive price, the scope of the food and nonfood

assortment, the immediate availability of themerchandise and the customer-oriented workinghours.

Core basic needs, (soap, paste)

Tangible

Augmented increase in size of markets (set

Mark Up Pricing Strategy is used

Metro also uses competitor based pricing

As far as pricing is concerned metro is not

doing well in this section as it does not have itsown products but only acts as an intermediarybetween the manufacturers and retailers.

So it charges very nominal amount of profit onthe prices given by the manufacturers

A proper location for goods distributed isnecessary as it can try to reduce hightransportation cost, inadequate supplies of

labor and raw materials etc. Ratnagiri is where the wholesale unit is

stationed at i.e , Metro India ltd.

The goods come to the unit from a large no. ofcarriers from Chinchpokli in Mumbai
