In order to work with this approach, it is necessary to rely on major factors that are summarized in the following points:

  • The existence of an organized administrative structure capable of establishing a network of communication between warehouses and regional offices.
  • Not spending on the front and relying on the design of stores in a modest way to provide products at cheap prices.
  • Stay away from unnecessary expenses that increase the price of products.
  • Ensure the quality of the products despite their cheap prices.
