Discounters: Rapid growth or gross myth? 2010
Summary:
While it may be a common presumption that discounters are benefitting from the downturn, is this really the case?
In the wake of the global economic crisis, discounters were expected to benefit from rising footfall due to lower discretionary income, e.g. Aldi UK’s 2008 turnover climbed 24%. However, due to their increasing success, discounters can no longer ‘fly under the radar’ and traditional retailers can no longer afford to ignore them. With all retailers focusing on efficiency and price, discounters have been suddenly faced with increasing competition from all formats, forcing them to battle on all fronts. In this situation, Planet Retail expects them to play their top trump - price.
