Pricing strategies
Customary pricing – retailer sets price & seeks to maintain those prices over an extended period. Prices that customers can take for granted & stable.
Variable pricing – when differences in demand & cost necessitate a change, with a view to increase demand, off season discount.
Flexible pricing – offering same products & quantities to different customers at different prices.
Price lining – retailers establish specified number of price points for each merchandise type & retailers purchase goods to fit the price points – makes price comparisons easier
– can help store to upgrade / down grade customer s preference.

Pricing Strategies (contd…)
Multiple unit pricing Price of each unit in a multiple pack is less than the price of each
unit if it were sold individually.
Suitable for products with high consumption rates.
Bundling Retailers combine several elements in one basic price, invariably
closely related items.

Leader pricing
When a high demand item is priced low & is heavily
advertised to attract customers into the store.
Loss leader pricing – Where an item is sold below cost to build traffic & encourage purchase of other items.
EDLP – When a retailer charges the same low price everyday for long periods and seldom offers the item on sale – stable but lower than prevailing prices but not the lowest.

Cost oriented pricing
• Markup pricing….a retailer sets prices by adding per unit merchandise costs, retail operating expenses & desired profit. The difference between the merchandise cost and selling price is the markup.
- Item cost Rs.20 ; it sells for Rs.25- Markup is Rs.5 or 25% of the cost or 20% on selling price- Margin is Rs.5 or 20% of the selling price
