    *Introduction*

    *Launching My Own Business*

    Most successful small businesses provide something attractive or advantageous by taking what's

    already there and developing some innovative features. I will be developed with an improved

    technique for delivering goods and services to the market.

    A new retail business needs to be where the customers are. We need such a location with a

    reasonable degree of security, access to public transportation for my customers and employees,

    adequate parking for commercial as well as personal vehicles.

    India has often been called a nation of shopkeepers. Most probably the reason for this is, a large

    number of retail enterprises exist in India. In 2004, there were 12 million such units of which

    98% are small family businesses, utilizing only household labor. Even among retail enterprises,

    which employ hired workers, a majority of them use less than three workers. Retailing is the

    combination of activities involved in selling or renting consumer goods and services directly to

    ultimate consumers for their personal or household use. In addition to selling, retailing includes

    such diverse activities as, buying, advertising, data processing and maintaining inventory.

    I will be open my retail store in allotted state i.e. Jaipur in India.

    About Rajasthan

    Rajasthan is situated in the North Western part of India and shares geographical boundaries with

    Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat in India. It also has a long

    international boundary with Pakistan. It has a total area of 342,214 sq. km and is the largest state

    in the country. About 4500 sq. km area of Alwar district of Rajasthan is included in the National

    Capital Region (NCR). The National Capital Region (NCR) centred around New Delhi, the

    Indian capital, is being developed in an integrated manner as an industrial growth centre with

    considerable Central Investment in infrastructural facilities. Seven Industrial Areas in the district

    of Alwar fall within this region and are 50 - 100 kms from New DelhiArchaeological and historical evidence shows a continuous human habitation of the area dating

    back 100,000 years. Between the 7th and the 11th century AD, several dynasties arose, with

    Rajput strength reaching its peak at the beginning of the 16th c. Emperor Akbar brought the

    Rajput states into the Mughal empire; by early 19th century, they allied with the Marathas.

    Later, the British established paramountcy in the region. Raj- asthan soon emerged as a centre of

    Indian nationalism. When the new constitution went into effect in 1950, Rajput princes

    surrendered their powers to the Indian Union.

    About Jaipur

    Jaipur, popularly known as Pinkcity, was built in 1727 AD by Maharaja Sawai Jai Singh II and

    designed by the brilliant young Bengali architect Vidhyadhar Bhattacharya. Designed in

    accordance with Shilp Shastra - an ancient Hindu treatise on architecture - Jaipur follows a grid

    system. The wide straight bazaars, streets, lanes, mohallas and uniform rows of shops on either

    5

  • 8/8/2019 Pramod Awasthi Rs1905a07 Store Management 2

    6/34

    side of main bazaars are arranged in nine rectangular city sectors called chaukris. Total

    population of Jaipur is 6690531 in 2009.

    Store retailing

    Store retailers operate fixed point-of-sale locations designed to attract a high volume of walk-in

    customers. In general, stores have extensive merchandise displays and use mass-media

    advertising to attract customers. They typically sell merchandise to the general public forpersonal or household consumption, but some also serve business and institutional clients. These

    include establishments such as office supply stores, computer and software stores, building

    materials dealers, and plumbing and electrical supply stores.

    *Environment*

    The people of Jaipur are well educated and professional. There is self-respect in every man of

    Jaipur, they are after all the sons of kings. Jaipur is a insensitive, scorched land of savage

    summer heat but also full of the brightest colors. So there is a lot of scope of growing market, we

    have an opportunity to open a new retail store in Jaipur. We seek an opportunity that they have

    zeal to spend money because their living standard and life style. Even in everyday life today,

    the Rajput's sense of honor, family and tradition come foremost.

    Jaipur has made its contribution to Indian art; there is a rich literary tradition. A popular source

    of entertainment is the dance drama composed in poetry with festive, historical, or romantic,

    which is performed on festive occasions only by women.

    6

    7/34

    So now seeing the opportunity we decide to open a retail store in Jaipur and I will be provided

    grocery items with the all kinds of merchandise which fulfilled the daily routine requirements of

    the costumers.

    *Store Location*

    Location is critical to the success of a retail store. A store's trading-area is the area surrounding

    the store from which the outlet draws a majority of its customers. The extent of this area depends

    upon the merchandise sold. On deciding the trading area a specific site must then be consider

    some factors which affecting the site include, traffic patterns, accessibility, competitors' location,

    availability and cost and population shifts within the area. The best retail location combines

    visibility, affordability and lease terms you can live with. Brick-and-mortar retailers need to be

    where the action is, so deciding where should we go to put our business is very important.

    Take the time to analyze the areas that appeal to me, to open there are three phases of choosing a

    location for retail business:

    *Selection of a city

    *Choice of an area or type of location within a city

    *Identification of a specific site.

    We will consider these factors in choosing a city we will investigate these main factors:

    *Size of the city's trading area

    *Population and population trends

    *Total purchasing power and who has it

    7

  • 8/8/2019 Pramod Awasthi Rs1905a07 Store Management 2

    8/34

    *Total retail trade potential for different lines of trade

    *Number and size of competition

    *Quality and aggressiveness of competition

    After getting a general idea of Jaipur city we like, choose an area or type of location within a city

    by evaluating these:

    *Customer attraction power

    *The nature of competition

    *Availability of access routes to the stores

    *Zoning regulations

    *Geographic direction of the city's expansion

    *General appearance of the area

    *Sales and traffic growth prospects of the trade area

    *Demographics of neighborhoods

    We will avoid these factors because these factors in narrowing down our site choices:

    *Traffic flow

    *Complementary nature of neighboring stores

    *Adequacy of parking

    *Vulnerability to competition

    *Cost of the site

    *Layout*

    Store Image

    A store image is the mental picture, or personality of the store, retailer likes to project to

    customers. Image is affected by advertising, services, store layout, personnel, as well as the

    quality, depth and breadth of merchandise. Customers tend to shop in stores that fit their images

    of themselves.

    Store Design

    A store's exterior and interior design influence its image and profit potential. The exterior should

    be attractive and inviting and should blend with the store's general surroundings. The term

    Atmospherics is used to refer to the retailer's effort at creating the right ambience.

    Merchandise display is equally important. An effective layout guides the customer though the

    various sections in the store and facilitates to the purchase power.

    For the my store the space required is near about 10,000 to 25,000 sq. ft. So that can provided

    better facility to our customer, in terms of huge ails, huge parking space and for the

    transportation also, which will made us better than others.

    The physical setting and visual indication of our retail business set the stage for the consumer's

    experience with us.

    In the present era the time of 3-D world, so in this case location, architecture and interior design

    are matter allot. Our store plan has two key elements i.e. store design and store layout.

    Store design is concerned with atmosphere, image, interior design and exterior design factors.

    Store layout involves the internal arrangements of each department, selling and sales support

    allocation, and the evaluation of space productivity.

    10/34

    To set up my store I will consulting with architects, interior designers and lighting engineers. so

    that they will work with skillful designers gives you an invaluable resource, Not only will they

    know the best location for air conditioners and elevators, but they can help build flexibility into

    lighting, sound and wiring systems that will keep you from incurring costs when floor layouts are

    altered. Designers keep abreast of the hottest color schemes, materials, sources and trends to a

    degree that would be impossible for someone outside the trades to do. We can save our self a lot

    of aggravation and a fair amount of money with thoughtful preparation.

    Some important factors of Space Allocation

    *Show the all merchandise to all customers. The more merchandise customers see, the more they

    will attract and buy. We want to design our store to attract customers to visit all departments or

    at least to see what the store has and return another time. You can accomplish this objective

    through strategic location of signs, special values, escalators, stairs, dressing rooms and certain

    merchandise.

    *Give choice locations, where inside customer traffic is heavy, to the most profitable items.

    High-markup and impulse items should be very visible.

    *We will be discouraging the shoplifting. Keep small, expensive items under lock and key, use

    convex mirrors where blind spots cannot be eliminated, and install video monitors. By keeping

    everything wide open, salespeople can observe everyone in the store.

    *Experiment to stay exciting. To accommodate changes in layout and merchandise displays, we

    need to have fixtures that are movable and adjustable, so keep this in mind when you're buying

    cabinets, shelving, lighting and other furnishings.

    *Locate related lines next to each other. Ties should be located close to dress shirts, printers next

    to computers, vases next to flowers, and so forth.

    10

  • 8/8/2019 Pramod Awasthi Rs1905a07 Store Management 2

    11/34

    *Locate related departments next to each other. Fashion departments complement each other.

    Cosmetics, accessories and jewelry often go well together. Cookbooks and gourmet apparatus

    stimulate interest in one another. Departments and merchandise categories should be coordinated

    as much as possible for customer convenience and cross-selling.

    *Give the most important lines the best locations in your store. Play the winners. Anything that is

    moving fast should be exploited in every way.

    *Material Handling*

    Material handling equipment is all equipment that relates to the movement, storage, control and

    protection of materials, goods and products throughout the process of manufacturing,

    distribution, consumption and disposal. Material handling equipment is the mechanical

    equipment involved in the complete system. Material handling equipment is used to increase

    throughput, control costs, and maximize productivity. There are several ways to determine if the

    material handling equipment is achieving peak efficiency. These include capturing all relevant

    data related to the warehouses operation (such as SKUs), measuring how many times an item is

    touched from the time it is ordered until it leaves the building, making sure you are using the

    proper picking technology, and keeping system downtime to a minimum.

    Material handling equipment is generally separated into four main categories:

    *Storage and handling equipment i.e. Hand trucks, Pallets trucks, roller conveyors and stillage

    trucks etc.

    *Power Driven Equipment systems i.e. Forklift trucks etc.

    *Industrial trucks i.e. Platform trucks and Tractors etc.

    *Bulk material handling i.e. Hydraulic equipment and Electromagnets equipment etc.

    There are some materials handling equipment given as below..

    *Merchandise Mix*

    Merchandising mix is the process of developing, securing, pricing, supporting and

    communicating the retailers merchandise offering. It means offering the right product at the

    right time at the right price with the right appeal.

    Here is to identify the merchandise that customers want, and make it available at the right price,

    in the right place at the right time. Merchandise Management includes three main steps that is..

    *Merchandise planning

    *Merchandise purchase

    Merchandise control

    Merchandise planning deals with decisions relating to the breadth and depth of the mix, needed

    to satisfy target customers to achieve the retailers return on investment. This involves sales

    forecasting, inventory requirements, decisions regarding gross margins and mark ups etc.Merchandise buying involves decisions relating to centralized or decentralized buying,

    merchandise resources and negotiation with suppliers. Merchandise Control: deals with

    maintaining the proper level of inventory and protecting it against shrinkage theft, pilferage etc.

    Retail merchandising requires management of the merchandise mix including

    Developing the merchandise mix allows the retailer to segment the market and appeal to a select

    group of consumers.

    An inventory control system uses barcode technology to automate the tracking of merchandise.

    It is also known as, an inventory control system is a set of hardware and software based tools

    that automate the process of tracking inventory is called inventory management. Modern

    inventory control systems are almost exclusively based on barcode technology. Though barcodes

    were initially developed to automate the process of grocery store checkout, their ability to

    encode a wide variety of alphabetic and numeric symbols makes them ideal for encoding

    merchandise for inventory applications. Inventory control systems work in real-time using

    wireless technology to transmit information to a central computer system as transactions occur.

    After the selections of merchandise, now question arises that, what steps should be taken to

    control to the inventory? Our decision to go into retail was based on the desire to meet an unmet

    need. Product selection is all about positioning. It's one thing to stock every item in a category.

    "Successful inventory forecasting and management comes from being in the business, There are

    no shortcuts or formulas. In the beginning, we went to the manufacturers' reps and asked them

    what the most popular items were and what was selling.

    Uses of Inventory Control Systems

    Inventory control systems are engaged in a wide variety of applications, but they all revolve

    around tracking delivery of goods to customers. Inventory control is crucial in retail stores,

    especially those with a large number or variety of merchandise items for sale.

    *Inventory control is used in warehouses to track orders and shipments.

    *For automated order processing.

    * Other important applications of inventory control systems are in manufacturing, shipping, and

    receiving.

    23

    24/34

    Importance of Inventory Control

    Inventory control is important issue to ensure the quality control in businesses that handle

    transactions revolving around consumer goods. Without proper inventory control, a large retail

    store may run out of stock on an important item. A good inventory control system will alert the

    retailer when it is time to reorder. Inventory control is also an important means of automatically

    tracking large shipments. Inventory control system helps to minimize the risk of error. In retail

    stores, an inventory control system also helps track theft of retail merchandise, providing

    valuable information about store profits and the need for theft-prevention systems.

    Automated inventory control systems work by scanning a barcode either on the item. A scanner

    is used to read the barcode, and the information encoded by the barcode is read by the machine.

    This information is then tracked by a central computer system. For example, a purchase order

    may contain a list of items to be pulled for packing and shipping. The inventory control system

    can serve a variety of functions in this case. It can help a worker locate the items on the order list

    in the warehouse, it can encode shipping information like tracking numbers and delivery

    addresses, and it can remove these purchased items from the inventory tally to keep an accurate

    count of in-stock items. All of this data works in tandem to provide businesses with real-time

    inventory tracking information. Inventory control systems make it simple to locate and analyze

    inventory information in real-time with a simple database search

    There are some important tools to check and manage the inventory, which are as follow

    26/34

    Technology Requires to Inventory Control

    Another important consideration for inventory control is store-level supply chain completing

    capabilities for retail inventory management, order fulfillment and process tracking. To

    transform a store from a distribution endpoint into a supply chain execution point, five key

    technology capabilities must exist. These key have to consider in our retail store..

    Inventory management: - Research inventory software that lets us receive goods into the

    store electronically and perform and audit quality inspections. If we receive shipments

    directly from external vendors, also look for the flexibility to print store-specific price tickets

    at the point of receipt.

    Order fulfillment: - Make sure that our retail inventory control system offers the ability to

    negotiate and accept orders being fulfilled from store locations, and also direct store

    associates to pull merchandise from shelves efficiently to either pick and ship, or hold,

    depending on the customer delivery model

    .

    In-store task management: - In addition to inbound and outbound activity enablement, find

    an in-store retail inventory software solution that make it easy and efficient for store

    26

  • 8/8/2019 Pramod Awasthi Rs1905a07 Store Management 2

    27/34

    associates to execute tasks that support cross-channel retail sales, including performing

    periodic cycle counts and inventory lookups at neighboring store locations.

    Supply chain visibility: - We should have instant access to information pertaining to

    inbound and outbound shipments from any point in the supply chain current order status as

    well as inventory for both on-hand and in-transit goods. This information should be flexible

    and easy for in-store operators to learn and use.

    Business analytics: - It is critical to gather key performance measures from each store to

    monitor efficiency and effectiveness over time. Look for retail inventory systems that

    automate the collection of execution-centric metrics and consolidate them across all

    distribution channels.

    So keeping all these point in mind we will control our inventory. So that we can avoid the

    error in future prospects.

    *Storage System*

    A warehouse store is a retail location with a limited variety of merchandise sold in bulk at a

    discount to customers. This type of store is also referred to as a "Big Box" or "Price-Impact"

    store because of the basic, warehouse style of the interior and the low prices. These stores tend to

    feature black text on a yellow background in marketing and in decor. Many warehouse stores are

    operated by traditional grocery chains both as a way to attract lower income, value conscious

    consumers and to maximize their buying power in order to lower costs at their mainstream stores

    Warehouses are used by manufacturers, importers, exporters, wholesalers, transport

    businesses, customs, etc. They are usually large plain buildings in industrial areas of cities and

    towns. They usually have loading docks to load and unload goods from trucks. Sometimes

    warehouses load and unload goods directly from railways, airports, or seaports. They often

    28/34

    have cranes and forklifts for moving goods, which are usually placed

    on ISO standard pallets loaded into pallet racks.

    Nature of goods

    Stored goods can include any raw materials, components, or finished goods associated with

    agriculture, manufacturing, or commerce.

    *Safety & Security*

    Safety is one of the primary concerns in retail stores .A retail store has its own set of safety and

    security needs. Retail safety and loss prevention teams require training in local laws, store policy

    and best practices, which filter down to a unique set of job training requirements. Unlike other

    security jobs in an industrial or residential building, retail security has to deal with an arrival of

    thousands of customers and this requires special training. Creating and maintaining a safe

    environment for workers and consumers is a primary concern of a retail store operation.

    Following proper procedures, awareness of hazards and maintenance are some of the key

    ingredients for achieving this.

    We will discus here some facts which are harmful for the retail store, we have need to avoid

    these bad factors, so that we can provide to our customers a fearless environment. Which would

    helpful for our store to increase the profitability in both terms i.e. money and image.
