Retail

Indians in general have a strong preference for customized and personalized shopping requirements due to a vast geographic and cultural diversity and varied social-economic consumer profile. Dominated by traditional retail market over five decades, the Indian retail space is undergoing constant disruption since last few years.

Consumer affordability has increased and aspirational middle class is growing. Apparel and household retail spends are shifting from traditional kirana and general shops to modern retail stores due to better pricing offerings and greater convenience of shopping. As a result, retail sector has emerged as the second-largest employer in India and is growing exponentially in tier II and III cities along with the usual urban pockets.

Temporary Staffing: Key to Consumption Economy

Millennials differ from ‘other’ customers in terms of lifestyle choices, consumption pattern, brand preferences and convenience. They are spending their incremental income towards eating out and entertainment, apparel and accessories and electronics. This indicates a shift towards a consumption economy which is driving growth of organized retail industry.

On one side, modern retail stores need store managers along with front-line workforce and floor attendants with good soft skills such as communication and interpersonal skills for ease of shop-navigation and driving sales. While on the other side, Indian retail sector is grappling with problems like last minute absenteeism which has domino effect on employee morale, store performance and ultimately customer satisfaction.
