Reliance Fresh – Here to Stay

There has been a wide outcry against Reliance Fresh outlets surfacing across the country.
The general opinion is that the outlets affect the livelihood of small vendors. That’s true. But why people prefer Reliance Fresh Outlets against the small shops in the neighborhood market.
It’s not the cozy environment…but there is no need for bargaining. But when we approach a small retailer, always he bounds to say an exorbitant price for vegetables or fruits.
Last week at MGR Nagar Market, a small retailer asked three rupees (Rs.3) for a lemon, do you believe this….. People bargain at, and take the same for Re.1.. but no such hassles in Reliance….
so it’s no doubt people swarm a Reliance Outlet…. from lower middle class to the affluent in the society………

Also Reliance’s latest addition DELIGHT is really a delight, offering a range of non-veg items, including fishes, prawns, mutton, chicken…. here again, I found a difference of Rs 20 for a particular variety of fish (Sangara, don’t confuse this with Sangakara) from the near by market.

So there is a need for a change in the attitude of the small-time retailers, then people will comeback to this…
