Mini store or convenience mart is definitely a wise choice to invest in and well accepted by the population of the neighbourhood. As statistics show that, even after the COVID-19 pandemic happens in 2019, we see more and more mini markets have surged into this high demand sector. The rationale is quite simple, it brings a very high level of convenience to the people who look for a nearer option, a smaller quantity of necessity purchases at odd timing. A lot of such stores do open long hours and up to the extent, which is 24 hours for 7 days in a week. Compared to hypermarket or well-known brands of a supermarket, the prior has its own market segment to cater to. Undoubtedly, those small retailers, SME or business owners in especially the food and beverage (F&B) sector will still opt for larger chains to get their big volume procurement and their frequency of visiting is offset by their one-off bulk demand. The distance, time, effort, flexibility, transport mode are other ease of constraints are advantages of tiny chains in these markets as well as growing rapidly in both rural and urban areas.
Some mini mart target younger generations would make more specialized concepts, such as the specific country-oriented style in its offering, design as well as other factors. Korean, Japanese or Taiwanese trendy stores are getting their appetites and franchisees in Malaysia will put their new outlets to be opened near colleges, schools or institutes. While the general audience kind of market will definitely be composed of multiple ranges of common products, categories, pricing as well as simplicities in the designs for interior. However, there are perspectives of what will be standardized too, elements such as fast payment features that built on high-speed recognition of e-wallet from a mobile phone, pay wave through credit or debit card, reloadable based member or third-party card can save a lot of time, effort, a queue of the crowds as well as a safety issue. There are also cash-prioritized stores, but if the traditional consumers are where the store is allocated, it can gain market share better than those who offer purely on cashless transactions.
In term of design, the racking, lighting, item arrangement, queuing line space, dining seat (if any), height and width of each categorized shelves, counter location, ceiling height, floor colour, wallpaper (if any advertisement posting is there), door materials or transparency intensity as well as other more aspects to look at are essential for owners to put their energy and time to consider, in addition to the monetary resources. Renovation after built-up is merely a waste of time if initial design, as well as material specified, are not on track with what supposed to be, hence, better to engage with professional upfront with full team discussion which consists of materials supplier, interior designer, specialized installers such as electrical contractor, wet works, tilers, carpenters, fridge provider, ceiling, painting, door, HVAC (Heating, ventilation, and air conditioning), goods racking, display accessories and more. Location is also important, besides traffic count for business growth, it is also a key driver of the ideal spirit of designs to boost more attractiveness for the sake of economic benefits including brand recognition that is so intangible to value which might always be neglected by a lot of entrepreneurs.
