Far away in the universe, there are extremely dense
objects possessing insane levels of gravitational force
An object from which,
even light cannot escape !
In absence of any light emanating from these objects,
these are invisible to telescopes
But scientists have developed methods for establishing
their existence
These objects are called “ Black Holes “
Any other object that comes within the SINGULARITY of a
Black Hole, gets sucked in – with no chance to escape for ever !
Closer at home, we are in the process of observing the
birth of a White Hole – otherwise known as :
A few days back , RR tied up with
# Facebook ( 280
million Indian subscribers )
# WhatsApp ( 400
million Indian subscribers ) ,
and launched JioMart
, enabling buyer to place orders on a nearby Kirana
Store, using WhatsApp and get home delivery
Within 2 years RR plans to on-board 3
crore ( 30 million ) Kirana Stores
Besides tie-ups with
kiranas, Reliance has 11,316 stores across Consumer Electronics , Fashion and
lifestyle
At 14
retail shops per 1000 people , India probably has 1.8 crore ( 18 Million ) retail shops in following categories :
Ø Food
& Grocery
Ø Apparel
Ø Consumer
Durables & IT
Ø Jewelry
& Watches
Ø Pharmacy
& Wellness
Ø Furniture
& Furnishings
Ø Footwear
Question :
Will the “ Technology
Platform “ which RR is in the process of developing in collaboration with
WhatsApp / Jio ( 370 million subscribers ), for the 30 million KIRANA
STORES, work equally well for 18 million Retail Stores listed above ?
Have no doubt !
Just as in case of those celestial Black Holes, each
addition of a Store in the RR White Hole Eco-System, increases
its “ Gravitational Pull “ exponentially , enabling it to “ attract “ still
more stores !
What else will RR White Hole Eco System, gobble up ?
Here is that Eco System :
Manufacturers > Stores
> Delivery
Agents
With several million Stores in its fold , there is no
doubt that , on their behalf , RR will negotiate and drive a hard bargain with
thousands of Manufacturer for lowest prices / quick and direct deliveries to specified stores all over
India ( bypassing whole sellers / distributors / warehouses ) / 90 days Credit etc
Which manufacturer can resist if RR commits to “ under-write “ 100 % of its
annual production ?
So, within 2
years, RR will manage to pull-off what took Walmart in USA 20 years to do
That leaves open the third side of RR triangle ,
viz:
Delivery
Agents
Expect the following “ moves “ from Mukeshbhai :
( A ) ….. Offer to
Central Government for a Public-Private Partnership with INDIA POST
Utilizing the DELIVERY SERVICES of 4.3 lakh postmen located at 1.53 lakh
post
offices
Thereby , solve the problem of maintaining “ Social Distancing “ during
extended
lockdown
[ Read : “ India
Post “ morph to “ India Retail “
/ 12 April 2020 ]
He will
make his offer “ irrestible “ ( remember , gravitational pull ? ) by telling
the
government :
“ Instead of suffering an annual loss of Rs 700
crore on India Post operations , how
about making an annual profit of Rs 70,000
crore ? “
(
B ) …. Offer the
government to take over the operations of 3.8 lakh Common Service
Centers ( CSC )
Mukeshbhai will offer :
# Current average monthly earning for 2.7 lakh Village Level entrepreneurs(VLE)
working
from 1.63 lakh Gram Panchayats, is Rs 25,000 . RR will double it within
one year
