entry of Margin Free Markets. Now, many of the leading corporate retailers are
have their presence in the state. The success of a large retail lies in the proper
management of its supply chain which, in turn, is the management of upstream and
downstream relationships with and customers to deliver superior customer value at
less cost to the supply chain as a whole. The relationship and collaboration with the
other entities in the supply chain is crucial. This study is aimed at collecting the
opinions of retailers and transporters about the suppliers in the supply chain to
identify the gaps between the expectations and performances. The study was
descriptive using primary data collected through administering two questionnaires.
Multi stage sampling was used to collect the samples with sizes of 126 and 28 for
retailers and transporters respectively. The hypotheses were tested using statistical
tests. It was found that Big Bazaar is most satified with the suppliers and Others
category is least satisfied. It was also found that there is a huge gap existing
between expectations of the transporters and the performance of the suppliers.
Overall, the retilaers and transporters are not satisfied with the suppliers. Lots of
aspects where the suppliers need to improve are suggested along with suggestions
separatley made for each retail chain. Theare are other suggetions on application of
latetst tools available in supply chain management. |
