They have a passion to be closer to consumers. At this time when the country’s retailing business is going through its phase of consolidation and modernization, there is a compelling need for those involved in retailing and those who intend to be involved to comprehend this phenomenon systematically so that they can practice it perfectly. Retail Management, 5e is an effort in this direction.
