Retail Management

Retailing is becoming increasingly important for any economy especially developing ones like India. Retailing is assuming more and more of a leadership role in the distribution channel. Again, retail has played a major role worldwide in increasing productivity across a wide range of consumer goods and services. The impact can be best seen in countries like U.S.A., U.K., Mexico, Thailand, and more recently China. Economies of countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Hong Kong, Sri Lanka and Dubai are also heavily driven by the retail sector. In view of internationalisation of retail, a further profound change can be noticed. Retailing companies that were formerly characterised by a local or national orientation are increasingly developing into global players along with worldwide operations. These changes make the retail management subject indispensable for business management graduates.
