With foreign direct investment ( FDI) in retail, India's $450-billion retailing industry is about to undergo a big change. What you buy and how you buy will change too.
Pushing for this change will be an entire brigade of big retailers. The big daddy of retail — Walmart — has already announced that it will be here in 12-18 months. Others like Metro and Tesco too are figuring out their India strategy. They all will do their best to stir up the Indian shopping experience.
In the next five-ten years expect many more global retailers to get into the fray in India. Who will they be? What are they like? And how will they fit into Indians' shopping basket? These are questions with no easy answers. But global pecking order should hold a few clues.
