Industry Background

Industry Background





supermarket, a form of grocery store, is a selfservice store offering a wide variety of food and household merchandise, organized into departments. It is larger in size and has a wider selection than a traditional grocery store, also selling items typically found in a convenience store, but is smaller and more limited in the range of merchandise than a hypermarket or big-box store.



The supermarket typically comprises meat, fresh produce, dairy, dairy, and baked goods departments, along with shelf space reserved for canned and packaged goods as well as for various non-food items such as household cleaners, pharmacy products and pet supplies.







The traditional suburban supermarket occupies a large amount of floor space, usually on a single level. It is usually situated near a residential area in order to be convenient to consumers. Supermarkets usually allocate large budgets to advertising, typically through newspapers. They also present elaborate in-store displays of products.





To maintain a profit, supermarkets attempt to make up for the lower margins by a higher overall volume of sales, and with the sale of higher-margin items. Customers usually shop by placing their selected merchandise into shopping carts (trolleys) or baskets (self-service) and pay for the merchandise at the check-out.

The store offered a wide array of goods from groceries, apparel, household accessories and furniture at very affordable prices. During that time, the onestop shopping philosophy was still a novel idea to consumers but with the excellent service and quality products it provided, it did not take long for Puregold to make its mark in the retail industry. Today, it has grown into a giant retail chain with more than 50 stores nationwide.

Savemore Company Background







-A chain of neighborhood grocery stores under the SM Food Retail Group -Other Food Retail formats under SM are SM Supermarket, SM Hypermarket and Makro -Tag Line “At you Service!”





 

- Savemore stores complement the regular SM Supermarket as it caters to shopper’s last minute purchases and their day-to-day budget. - offers a more convenient way to shop as it provides not just the fresh food items but also grocery items, as early as 8am daily -It’s located just around the corner  -. Despite the smaller space, Savemore Market continues to offer a wide variety of products.

SAVEMORE “Save More, your neighborhood SM”



What makes the Savemore experience different from that of the traditional SM Supermarket?





Unlike SM Supermarket and SM Hypermarket, Savemore supermarkets are located outside SM Malls, yet still carrying the SM brand. The first one was opened in 1999. It is still part of the SM network where customers can have the same SM shopping experience – value for money, convenience, and customer service with a smile.

What is the concept behind Savemore Supermarket? 

Savemore is SM’s way of bringing in the SM shopping experience nearer to where our shoppers live and work. It is a neighborhood store that prides itself on great merchandise selection, convenience and excellent customer service. Instead  of customers having to go to the mall, SM is now  becoming part of our customers’ neighborhood.

How different is it from SM Supermarket and SM Hypermarket? How does it compare to the other two in terms of store size and merchandise?



SM Supermarket and SM Hypermarkets are destinations; places that our customers have to plan to go to. Savemore, on the other hand, being part of the neighborhood, creates convenience for impulse purchases or last-minute needs.



Because they are smaller, with an area of not more than 5,000 square meters, it can be put up almost anywhere, bringing them closer to where customers live and work. Despite its smaller selling area, merchandise listing is still complete, but limited to about 25,000 articles.

If the concept of Savemore is like that of a neighborhood supermarket, is the demographics of the area take into consideration? How does this affect merchandise selection?





Demographics play a vital role in the selection of sites to open. The following are being studied: traffic flow and other establishments surrounding the store, such as schools, wet markets, etc. Adaptation according to the profile of the market in the area is as important.



Recognition of the customers’ daily need for fresh meat, fruits, and vegetables: 

With Savemore, customers need not have big refrigerators to stock up on fresh items. They can find their fresh needs at Savemore daily, and at any time of the day.

What considerations do you take when planning Savemore locations? 

We open Savemore in areas where we feel we are welcome to be part of our customers’ lifestyle. Our  main message to them is “Good food need not be expensive.” – Henry Sy (Phil. Star interview)



It’s all in the spirit of customer service. Bringing in the convenience and reliability of an SM supermarket closer to customers. Here, Savemore can offer them a wide range of quality products, competitively priced, in a clean, air-conditioned environment, with our trademark customer service.
