As of June 2, 2012 there are 214 stores across 90 cities and towns in India covering around 16 million sq. ft. of retail space.Big Bazaar is designed as an agglomeration of bazaars or Indian markets with clusters offering a wide range of merchandise including fashion and apparels, food products, general merchandise, furniture, electronics, books, fast food and leisure and entertainment sections. Big Bazaar is part of  Future Group, which also owns the  Central Hypermarket,  Brand Factory,  Pantaloons, eZONE, HomeTown, futurebazaar. com, KB's Fair Price to name a few and is owned through a wholly owned subsidiary of  Pantaloon Retail India  Limited. History:- Big Bazaar was launched in September, 2001 with the opening of its first four stores in  Calcutta,  Indore,  Bangalore  and  Hyderabad  in 22 days. Within a span of ten years, there are now 161 Big Bazaar stores in 90 cities and towns across India. By September 2012 BIG BAZAAR will have two more stores in North east namely SILCHAR and JORHAT in Assam.Big Bazaar was started by  Kishore Biyani, the Group CEO and Managing Director of  Pantaloon Retail India. Though Big Bazaar was launched purely as a fashion format including apparel, cosmetics, acc essory and general merchandise, over the years Big Bazaar has included a wide range of products and service offerings under their retail chain. The current formats includes Big Bazaar, Food Bazaar, Electronic Bazaar and Furniture Bazaar. The inspiration behind this entire retail format was from  Saravana Stores, a local store in  T. Nagar,  Chennai The stores are customized to provide the feel of mandis and melas  [2]  while offering the modern retail features like Quality, Choice and Convenience.As the modern Indian family's favorite retail store, Big Bazaar is popularly known as the â€Å"Indian  Walmart†. On successful completion of ten years in Indian retail industry, in 2011, Big Bazaar has come up a new logo with a new tag line: ‘Naye India Ka Bazaar’, replacing the earlier one: ‘Isse Sasta Aur Accha Kahin Nahin'. [3] Strategy:- 3-C Theory According to  Kishore Biyani's 3-C theory, Change and Confidence among the entire population is lea ding to rise in Consumption, through better employment and income which in turn is creating value to the agricultural products across the country. [4]  Big Bazaar has divided India into three segments: India one: Consuming class which includes upper middle and lower middle class (14% of India's population).India two: Serving class which includes people like drivers, household helps, office peons, liftmen, washermen, etc. (55% of India's population) and India three: Struggling class (remaining 31% of India's population). While Big Bazaar is targeted at the population across India one and India two segments, Aadhaar Wholesale is aimed at reaching the population in India three segment. With this,  Future Groupemerged as a retail destination for consumers across all classes in the Indian society. Operations:- Most Big Bazaar stores are multi-level and are located in stand-alone buildings in city centers as well as within shopping malls. These stores offer over 200,000 SKUs in a wide range of categories led primarily by fashion and food products.Food Bazaar, a supermarket format was incorporated within Big Bazaar in 2002 and is now present within every Big Bazaar as well as in independent locations. A typical Big Bazaar is spread across around 50,000 square feet (4,600  m2) of retail space. While the larger metropolises have Big Bazaar Family centres measuring between 75,000 square feet (7,000  m2) and 160,000 square feet (15,000  m2), Big Bazaar Express stores in smaller towns measure around 30,000 square feet (2,800  m2). Big Bazaar has the facility to purchase products online through its official web page, and offers free shipping on some of their products. [5] Innovations:- Wednesday bazaar:- Big Bazaar introduced the Wednesday Bazaar concept and promoted it as â€Å"Hafte Ka Sabse Sasta Din†.It was mainly to draw customers to the stores on Wednesdays, when least number of customers are observed. According to the chain, the aim of the concept is â€Å"to give home makers the power to save the most and even the stores in the city don a fresh look to make customers feel that it is their day†. [6] Sabse sasta din:- With a desire to achieve sales of Rs 26 Crore in a one single day, Big Bazaar introduced the concept of â€Å"Sabse Sasta Din†. The idea was to simply create a day in a year that truly belonged to Big Bazaar. This was launched on January 26, 2006 and the result was exceptional that police had to come in to control the mammoth crowd.The concept was such a huge hit that the offer was increased from one day to three days in 2009 (24 to 26 Jan) and to five days in 2011 (22-26 Jan). Maha bachat:- Maha Bachat was started off in 2006 as a single day campaign with attractive promotional offers across all Big Bazaar stores. Over the years it has grown into a 6 days biannual campaign. It has attractive offers in all its value formats such as Big Bazaar, Food Bazaar, Electronic Bazaar and Furniture Bazaar â⠂¬â€œ catering to the entire needs of a consumer. On February 12, 2009 Big Bazaar launched â€Å"The Great Exchange Offer†, through with the customers can exchange their old goods in for Big Bazaar coupons. Later, consumers can redeem these coupons for brand new goods across the nation.
