is the sale of goods and services from individuals or businesses to the end-user. Retailers are part of an
integrated system called the supply chain. A retailer purchases goods or products in large quantities
from manufacturers or directly through a wholesaler, and then sells smaller quantities to the consumer for
a profit. Retailing can be done in either fixed locations or online. Retailing includes subordinated
services, such as delivery. The term "retailer" is also applied where a service provider services the needs
of a large number of individuals, such as a public utility, like electric power.
incoming paradigm shifts. In fragmented Asian markets like the Philippines, Japan, and Korea, consumers
tend to remain loyal to retail stores. In the Philippines, building customer loyalty is a sensible goal for
retailers and the ability of a retailer to plan and implement customer retention measures determines future
success or failure.
While retail saturation continues to grow in the Philippines, the industry continues to offer market
opportunities for new entrants and for current players seeking to expand. Franchising is one of the fastest
growing sectors in the economy. The growing demand for new products and services attest that there is
plenty of room for new players.
Retailers in the Philippines find their market increasingly competitive, with foreign retailers attempting to
move into the market in greater numbers. Competing with global retailers will become increasingly
difficult, unless local Filipino retailers can differentiate themselves in ways meaningful to their
customers.
Importance of systematic Receiving of Incoming Goods
Each delivery should be checked. Verify the consignee's name and address. If you
have more than one location, be sure the goods are for your location. Check the
merchandise, and verify that it is the same as described on the delivery receipt. Check
each labelled carton to ensure that it belongs to you.
All of the items have a sole packing ID number, which match the ID on the packing list and
invoice. All of the goods are packed into cartons with packing list in it. Every carton marked with
carton number.
So when you receive the goods, first thing please check if all of the cartons are well packed, no
damage. If there is any damage please take pictures and send to us at the earliest time, so that if
any item missing or damaged we can claim from shipping company.
Prior to importing your goods into the Philippines, you should ensure the overseas supplier has marked
the goods with the country of origin. For example, goods originating in China should be marked "Made in
China". The marking must be legible and permanent enough for the ultimate purchaser to be made aware
of the goods origin. The ultimate purchaser is the person who will last purchase or receive the article in
the condition in which it was imported. That could be a consumer (one who buys), processor (one who
further processes materials or recipient (receiver of a gift).

Organizations are stuck in a constant cycle that pushes them to improve their business in order to
gain a competitive advantage. They consistently feel the stress to reduce costs, time and inventory.

Specify value: Customer value is identified and added along the supply chain network.
Map out value stream: Identifying all processes along the supply chain network in order to
eliminate the processes that do not create value to the overall product. This mapping helps us
understand how the value is created into the product from the customers perspective.

Create a product flow: Applying the factors outlined in order to make valuable processes to
occur in a smooth system; minimizing interruptions, inventories, downtime.
4.
Establish customer pull: Manufacturing only in response from the customer that more is
needed; implying that demand information is made available across the supply chain.
Each of these four processes seeks perfection to progressively improve every process; minimizing
waste and maximizing value.
