INTRODUCTION:
Retail management is the sale by seller in small quantities to customer not for resale .
RETAIL MANAGEMENT:
The process of bringing the ultimate user to the main producer, through a series of stages, where retailing is the last one. It is not limited to quantities, but limited to the exact requirement of the ultimate user. Therefore, bringing about operational efficiency at this last stage, and creating an environment so compelling that he looks nowhere else, is "Retail Management". Retail Management is an art, and necessitates employing several tools of logistics management for a complete end user satisfaction. Retail Management - is getting to know the final user on behalf of the producer. Retail Management - is a process of facilitation.
RURAL MARKETING: Rural Marketing is defined as any marketing activity in which one dominant participant is from a rural area. This implies that rural marketing consists of marketing of inputs (products or services) to the rural as well as marketing of outputs from the rural markets to other geographical areas. Marketing is the process used to determine what products or services may be of interest to customers, and the strategy to use in sales, communications and business development. It generates the strategy that underlies sales techniques, business communication, and business developments. It is an integrated process through which companies build strong customer relationships and create value for their customers and for themselves.
