The number of convenience stores is expected to continue increasing at a fast pace over the forecast period and this is likely to intensify the competition with hypermarkets as sales become fragmented and more consumers turn to the convenience of smaller stores close to home. While convenience stores are not a direct competitor to hypermarkets traditionally due to their limited product offering and higher product pricing, as household sizes get smaller over the years this is providing opportunities for convenience stores to expand.
Despite the competition, sales through hypermarkets are expected to be largely resilient with these stores still holding strong appeal for some consumers, but especially for larger families and those looking to buy in bulk. Hypermarkets are able to offer a one-stop location for a monthly or weekly shopping trip, while convenience stores mainly cater to those looking for a ready-to-eat meal, snacks, or to top up their supplies in between a trip to a supermarket or hypermarket.
Large format stores including hypermarkets are increasingly focusing on improving the environmental, social and governance aspects of retail. For example, some players are turning to installing solar panels as a renewable form of powering their operations.
