Business model for Indian retail sector: The Café Coffee Day case In conversation with V. G. Siddhartha, Chairman, Coffee Day

摘要

While the Indian retail market has been part of the global churn, the Indian retail sector is distinct on several counts. The sector has immense potential, but the vast economic, social, and cultural diversity of the country, inadequate infrastructure, the small share of organised retail in the retail market – particularly in food and grocery, the lack of reliable data on retail, and the ambivalent attitude to FDI in retail present a challenge to the development of an appropriate business model for the Indian retail sector.
