CD Equisearch's research report on V-Mart Retail
Clothing, dining out and grocery retail industry will take about a year to recover, said top industry associations - Retailers Association of India (RAI), National Restaurant Association of India (NRAI) and Clothing Manufacturers Association of India (CMAI) in StoRAI, the official magazine of RAI, published in June 2020. The three associations jointly anticipates a 25-30% impact on business with multiplier effect on dependent industries and lasting job losses, while emphasizing on an immediate survival plan. Selling piled-up inventory as soon as malls and stores reopen followed by increasing productivity at the factories would be key to recovery for apparel manufacturers in post Covid era.
