Mass Merchandisers
The sector of mass merchandisers is characterized by high volumes, frequent transactions, an automated supply chain and EDI (electronic data interchange). Very sharp pricing is a must and extreme flexibility in packaging / shipping / invoicing is required from the supplier. This causes extreme pressure on the supplier to reduce supply chain costs.
Trends
The recent economic downturn has increased the market share of mass merchandisers.
