Yesterday I read an article "A whole new opportunity" in Business Standard.It said that the cash and carry business in India is on a growth path,because of high level of expectation around FDI being allowed in multi-brand retail.
Some facts :-
No FDI restriction in cash & carry business.
Cash and Carry in India is worth around $ 140 billion, out of the $ 350 billion retail business.
Typical investment per store is around Rs 40 crore to Rs 60 crore, depending on the size of the market.
Proportion of Indian items on the shelves of foreign cash and carry majors operating in India is anything between 90 and 95 per cent.
How the players stack up :-
| Cash and Carry Company | India launch | Stores in India | Expansion Plans |
| Metro Cash & Carry | 2003 | 8 | 50 stores in 4 to 5 years and 8 to 10 annually |
| Bharti- Walmart | 2009 | 14 | 10 to 12 stores next year and 20 in 2 years |
| Carrefour | 2010 | 1 | Ready with India expansion plan |
| Reliance Retail | 2011 | 1 | Data unavailable |
