PERSAINGAN HARGA DAN STRATEGI PROMOSI PADA RITEL MODERN: STUDI INDOMARET DAN ALFAMART
Abstract
This study aims to analyze the pricing and promotion strategies employed by Indonesia's two largest modern retailers, Indomaret and Alfamart, in response to corporate competition dynamics. The research method used is qualitative with a literature study approach, involving the collection and analysis of relevant literature on management strategies, pricing, promotion, and consumer behavior in modern retail. The results indicate that Indomaret emphasizes a cost leadership strategy through discount promotions, product bundling, and an extensive outlet network. In contrast, Alfamart focuses more on differentiation through occasion-based promotions, membership programs, and the development of its digital application, Alfagift. These differing strategies reflect a pattern of mutual adjustment in competition, where Indomaret is more effective at attracting price-sensitive consumers, while Alfamart excels in building loyalty through service and digital innovation.
