Pandemic Fills The Supermarket Checkout

0

Supermarkets are the big beneficiaries of the coronavirus pandemic. Although the Filomena snowstorm has left some of their shelves half empty at this start of the year, putting them in even more supply difficulties for a few days than the covid itself, and although it is difficult for them to recognize it, they are the 2020 winners. one of the few businesses that have multiplied their sales since the virus landed in Spain and hit the economy like no other crisis.

Locked up without being able to leave the house, the first thing the citizens did was fill their pantries as if the end had come. “It was sold in a week what in a whole month”, recalls Ignacio García Magarzo, general director of the Spanish Association of Distributors, Self-services and Supermarkets (Asedas).

Stockpiling of toilet paper skyrocketed by up to 25%in the early stages of the state of alarm, almost as much as the sale of hydroalcoholic masks and gels. It is a trend that some supermarkets, such as Consum, consider unusual and are studying from a psychological point of view.

Later, with limited movements and restricted bars and restaurants, citizens continued to buy food and indulge in the whims that were forbidden in restaurants. Beers, wines, snacks and chocolates made a place in the shopping baskets.

So food distribution does not remember a year like 2020. “Its turnover has grown 7%, three times more than a normal year. It is outrageous and is largely due to the transfer from the hospitality industry ”, acknowledges Patricia Daimiel, general director of the consulting firm Nielsen, who expects that sales of mass consumption (food, beverages and perfumery) will exceed 95,000 million euros at year-end.

“The Spanish food distribution has managed to solve 2020 very well and show its muscle. It is a leading sector in Europe and in which there has been no shortage as in other countries, as well as one of the few industries that have maintained their recruitment levels and increased their turnover rates ”, summarizes Florencio García, an expert at the firm of Kantar market analysis, which figures the increase in sales at 14% until November.

“The sector has been praised throughout Europe and, from the point of view of its image, has taken a great step forward as a social agent, with the population empathizing with the figure of supermarket cashiers.”

Of course, this specialist in mass consumption emphasizes that he has also increased his expenses as a result of health and safety measures and the increased recruitment of personnel with which to face the increase in demand and, above all, to meet the unprecedented e-commerce push. With the increase in investments, the margins of the distributors have suffered, supports Daimiel.

It does not matter if they are supermarkets or hypermarkets or traditional grocery stores, markets or Chinese. All have enjoyed a spike in sales during the pandemic. And some, such as specialized shops or markets, for the first time in 15 and 5 years, respectively, indicates the Kantar expert.

But if there are some absolute winners, those are the regional supermarkets, those local establishments, very close to the citizen, with a large assortment and good fresh produce, the one with the greatest sales boom during the pandemic.

Brands such as Consum, AhorraMas, Bonpreu, Gadis, Alimerka, Condis or Covirán are some examples. They have managed to scratch market share from the absolute leader in the sector, Mercadona, and the rest of the national chains.

“Regional supermarkets, by themselves, are up more than one point over the previous year, when the sector as a whole grew at that rate. They have been the ones that have adapted best and fastest to the consumer’s needs, with fresh produce and prepared food, ”says José Luis Nueno, professor at IESE Business School. Of the big five (Mercadona, Carrefour, Dia, Lidl and Eroski),

The eternal struggle between supermarkets (from 400 to 2,500 square meters of surface) and hypermarkets (of more than 2,500 meters), which in Spain long ago ended in favor of the former (among other things, due to legislative restrictions on large surfaces recalls Javier Millán-Astray, general director of the National Association of Large Distribution Companies -ANGED-), it seems that it will remain.

While hyper-depressed have attracted more consumers in recent months due to their larger size, the ability to make a full purchase and the perception of security that buyers have in them.

“Supermarkets have benefited from consumption outside the home, which has become inside. In hypermarkets, the behavior is the opposite, they suffered with the closing of shopping centers during confinement; As of May they had a significant boom and now, with the third wave, they are falling again due to restrictions on mobility ”, says Rosa Carabel, director of Eroski’s commercial network, with more than 1,300 stores, of which 38 are hypermarkets and contribute about 25% of its turnover.

Carabel highlights the changing situation that is being experienced in the large distribution with the covid-19 and the increase in its sales of 18% in 2020. Dia, for example, closed the year with a sales increase of 0.2%, up to the 6,882 million.

The citizens have chosen. And they opt above all for proximity, “with which the future of the hypermarket is complicated,” according to Florencio García, even more so given the entry into the scene of new competition from the hand of brands like Family Cash.

But your habit changes go far beyond that preference. They have reduced their visits to grocery stores (6%) and have raised the average ticket (14%). Three trends that the experts consulted believe are here to stay.

Another new habit stands out among the rest and without the possibility of going back: the digitization of the shopping cart. E-commerce has broken two of its traditional barriers during covid-19: age (those over 50 have signed up to fill the cart virtually) and fresh product (the customer has dared to buy fresh products , even fish), explains Jaime Teixeira, Dia’s Director of Operations, who saw online demand tripled during confinement and made a million home delivery deliveries.

Digital commerce has gained 1.5 million customers, has grown close to 30% year-on-year, and penetration exceeds 3%. “The channel has doubled without companies being prepared for it”, considers Patricia Daimiel.

Now, distribution chains are investing in technology, logistics and storage, and online sales can grow much more, Nueno predicts. According to the director of Asedas, supermarkets have allocated 300 million euros to improve their digital response and to provide security measures to their workers and customers during the pandemic.

On protective equipment alone, Dia has spent € 12 million, and Lidl speaks of € 26 million to keep its spaces safe. “All items of expenses have increased significantly during the covid. None has remained in place, and some, such as the online business, have multiplied by four ”, says Rosa Carabel, who places the average increase in expenses between 10% and 15%. “The invoice is not small and the margins are very narrow,” he says.

Despite this, distribution chains have continued to open stores like crazy in the last months of 2020, emphasizes Professor Nueno, thus taking advantage of the consumption pull. “In November, Mercadona, Lidl and Aldi have opened more establishments than in the rest of the year”, Florencio García highlights.

The industry leader opened nine stores in the last two months of the year. It has to do with the Christmas campaign, justifies José Ramón Fernández de Barrena, CEO of Grupo Uvesco. “December is the strongest month of the year, with 50% more sales than a normal month.”

You had to take advantage of it. In fact, supermarkets and hypermarkets closed the year by growing 9.8%, according to the only closed data from Nielsen, to which should be added those of the rest of food establishments.

Carrefour, the group that intends to buy the Canadian Alimentation Couche-Tard, is probably the one that has added the most stores to its commercial network in 2020, about 90, taking advantage of the Dia closures. Also the one that has starred in the largest acquisition of the year in the sector, by taking over the Supersol chain.

Eroski has made 70 openings between its own and franchised stores, in a very good year in terms of openings and renovations, as the head of its commercial network calls it, which foresees many more in 2021. An estimate that is repeated in Lidl, which has opened 43 supermarkets after an investment of 240 million euros, in addition to two logistics platforms, to which another one currently under construction will be added this year. Its workforce has increased by 2,000 people.

And also in Consum, which has opened more surfaces than budgeted, indicates its director of External Relations, Javier Quiles, with a total of 36. On a smaller scale, Uvesco invested 38 million in seven new supermarkets, a figure that this year will reach 40 million for 10 openings, explains its CEO.

These are some examples of the furor in supermarkets, especially proximity, the format with the greatest expansion. And that allows regional chains such as Consum, very strong in the Mediterranean arc, that their turnover grows by more than 15% to exceed 3,100 million euros in 2020 with 780 stores. Or to Uvesco, with 240 supermarkets mainly in the north of the country, to sell 20% more to bring its income above 900 million.

Distribution companies reshape their networks and convert some of their old establishments into dark stores or blind stores with which to meet the growing demand for home orders. “The pandemic has changed the distribution structure, which will continue to encourage close purchases.

The network of stores will be remodeled and relocated. Many companies are already doing it [such as Mercadona, which is expanding its sales centers]. They convert some properties into blind stores to serve online distribution ”, says Enrique Porta, partner responsible for Consumption and Distribution at KPMG.

They are preparing for an uncertain environment that the extension of vaccines could clear from mid-2021. That is the horizon with which the distribution chains are working in the year in which they anticipate the arrival of the economic crisis in households and a deterioration of your confidence.

“We are facing months of recession and a consumer crisis because citizens will have less money to spend. When the ERTE ends, the moment of truth will come. These are difficult months in which the price will be very relevant for the customer and in which we will continue to fight for the euro sold. We are going to be thrown into a price war to gain market share ”, says Rosa Carabel, who already appreciates movements in this direction.

Hiring Help – 5 Tips To Help You Streamline The Onboarding Process For New Employees

0

After a long and arduous recruitment process, it’s easy to get complacent when you’ve found your ideal new employee. However, the next steps in the hiring procedure are crucial to ensuring a successful transition for the newest member of your team. 

From taking them through your payroll software to introducing them to the team, there are so many elements involved in the onboarding process. This can be overwhelming, both for the new employee and their manager. To ease the transition, here are five tips you can use to streamline the process:

1. Handle all the paperwork before their first day

Ask any new employee and they’ll tell you they’d feel far more comfortable if they could take care of all the payroll and insurance information before their first day of work. This tactic frees them up to focus on their new role while also putting their mind at ease that their first paycheque will arrive on time and their insurance coverage is valid. Your HR department will also be thrilled at this proactive approach to getting them the information they need to do their job efficiently.

2. Provide written a written guide and workflows

In addition to the guided training your new employee will need to learn the systems you use, it’s worth providing a clear set of written instructions that takes them through what’s expected of them. This way, you can cut down drastically on the number of questions they need to throw at you in their first weeks. You’ll also eliminate confusion, empower them to be more self-sufficient, and give them a thorough overview of the unique processes and tools used in your workplace. 

3. Set them up with a buddy

Though new employees tend to turn to their manager when they need assistance, the best person to help is often one of their fellow employees. However, it’s not always easy in those first few weeks to approach someone you don’t know if you get stuck. With this in mind, try teaming your new hire up with a long-standing employee whom you have faith in to provide excellent instruction and advice. Not only will this free up your time, but it will also help the new employee get comfortable with their teammates. 

4. Highlight the company culture

This is another responsibility that can be assigned to the new employee’s buddy. However, as a manager, it’s important that you play your part too. No matter how talented someone is at their job, if they don’t fit well into the team, chances are their performance will suffer. To give your new hire the best shot at fitting harmoniously into the team, be clear on company culture from the start and give them opportunities to get involved. For example, a brunch to welcome them on their first day is a wonderful way to break the ice. 

5. Take advantage of automation

If your current workforce management software doesn’t offer you the ability to automate the more technical aspects of the onboarding process, it may be time to consider an upgrade. The best workforce management software gives your team the tools they need to self-manage in the workplace. Your new hire should be able to view their roster, update relevant details themselves, request leave, set their availability, swap shifts, and review their payslips without having to seek your input.

Say goodbye to any outdated hiring practices that are no longer serving you and streamline the experience with the tips listed above. This way, you can empower your new employee to start kicking goals from day one. 

Make a Living with Forex in 2021

Ways to make money for a living were heavily impacted by the coronavirus pandemic last year. So the online CFD can become even more popular in 2021. In this piece, we will figure out if it’s possible to make money for a living using Forex. 

How Does It Work?

In Forex, people buy currency at an individual rate to increase it at a higher rate and make money on currency differences.

It is essential to understand that there is no chaotic change in prices on the foreign exchange market. Forex quotes vary depending on several factors. An experienced trader will undoubtedly take these factors into account before entering trades. It can be quite tricky for a beginner to figure this out. Forex cannot be classified as a way to make a million in two minutes. It would help if you had a relatively clear idea of ​​how a particular currency pair will move at a price.

First Steps 

To start making money on Forex, first, you need to understand the principles by which the currency exchange generally works. Besides, you will undoubtedly need knowledge about developing countries with the currencies of which you carry out financial transactions, financial markets and how they function, risks, etc. 

It would help if you also learned how to read charts, predict the situation on the foreign exchange market, and calculate changes in the exchange rate in one direction or another. It is worth starting to work in Forex after choosing a reliable broker.

Even if you have worked in Forex before and have exceptional transitional trading experience, always start with demo accounts when changing a broker or another platform. It is necessary to get used to the interface and understand whether the standard conditions for setting up sites are suitable for you.

How to Learn?

To start taking part in trading on the foreign exchange market, you need to install a trading terminal. Newbies are often advised to begin their activities with demo versions and virtual accounts, where they can practice without risking their own real money. After you check the skills acquired during the training on a demo account while working in natural conditions and in real-time, you can switch to total deposits. The only thing is not to get stuck on demo accounts for too long — only real trading will allow you to get to know Forex and trade in full measure finally.

How Much Can I Earn?

Many beginners ask this question. As we have said above, this is not a place to make a fortune quickly. But there is still hope. There are many factors to consider for this hope to come true. It is investing in learning to trade in Forex, tracking news, developing a strategy, and striving for a high percentage of winnings.

It is impossible to predict precisely how much you can earn trading Forex in 2021. In addition to outstanding trading ability, some factors are beyond your control. These are economic and political changes, as well as many other factors. Unfortunately, it’s practically impossible to prepare for these changes and take them into account during the development of your strategy. 

Yes, It’s Still Possible

In 2021, you can still make some money for a living on Forex. However, we are not talking about large amounts, especially if you only started your trading activity. This complicated business requires endurance and deliberate action. It would be best if you did not quit your job immediately on the very first day you discovered Forex. To make a living, you need to learn continually, follow the news, and have a consistent, flexible strategy.

Trading on the China A50

0

Just a few years ago, the Asian stock markets didn’t really interest traders and only a few experienced investors accepted the challenge of speculating on this type of highly controlled market. But times have changed and the Asian markets, due to the emergence of certain countries on the economic level, have rapidly claimed their place in the stock market sector.

This of course concerns share trading of these Asian countries, but also the stock market indices, which you can easily trade on ROInvesting, issued in this part of the world. Here we shall look at the Chinese market, more particularly the China A50 index, one of the China indices group.

However, by trading a CFD on the China A50 index anyone is able to benefit from the movements in the domestic Chinese share market. Not only can traders make a long bet on the market with CFDs, but they can also make a short bet, which makes CFDs a very flexible way to speculate on the China A50.

Presentation and characteristics of the China A50:

Firstly, and particularly before looking closely at the China A50, we should explain that this index is part of a group of Chinese indices, specially created to enable stock market investment. This group is called the ‘FTSE China Index Series’ and comprises a complete range of indices, categorised either according to the number of businesses represented or according to a particular sector of activity. Please note also that the indices of this series include both shares and bonds.

The ‘A’ that appears in the name of this index means that it only takes into account ‘A’ type shares from the 50 largest Chinese companies.

It is important to note that although this group of indices enables an overall evaluation of the Chinese market, only the China A50 and China 25 indices are accessible for trading on an international level as they are the only ones quoted continuously on other exchanges.

The companies quoted on the China A50:

As explained above, the China A50 index is a Chinese index quoted in real time which is traded on the major European stock exchanges. As indicated by its name, it represents the tradable assets of the fifty largest, most influential companies quoted on the stock markets in China. To compose this index, the responsible authorities basically take into account the total stock market capitalisation of each of the companies and their market liquidity. However, the companies are also chosen according to their representation of the Chinese economy.

It should also be noted that the shares included in the China A50 are also quoted on the Shanghai and Shenzhen stock exchanges which are two of the major Chinese stock exchanges where you can easily buy shares online.

Historical rates of the China A50:

The Chinese index, China A50, can be profitable for trading as it is always affected by highly pronounced trends, over the short and long term, which makes it an ideal asset for traders that use technical analysis.

In a general manner, we can observe a net rise of this index from 2007 for several years before dropping in 2010 in a trend that continues even now.

Trading in the China A50 using CFDs:

Although the CFDs enable you to trade easily on the China A50 index, over the short and long term, the elements that will assist you in anticipating the rates are as follows:

  • The historical and technical analyses of the prices are major indicators.
  • The trade balance of China, a major exporter, is also an influential factor.
  • The global economic health plays a primordial role in the Chinese economy.
  • The value of the Yen, which facilitates or complicates Chinese exports.
  • The economic health of the major Chinese activity sectors.

Four reasons why bookmakers should allow their customers to use Bitcoin

0

Thanks to the internet, we can bet on sports and play casino games without having to leave our homes. Needless to say, this had a massive impact on the betting industry, which is why you have an abundance of gambling operators to choose from. 

In order to stand out from the rest and attract more customers, some of these websites have to think outside the box. Besides special bonuses and unique betting features, individual operators focus on something that every bettor has to use – the payment option. 

Nowadays, we can use different things to fund our virtual accounts, but one of the most popular options is Bitcoin. Once it was revealed to the public, this cryptocurrency changed the world because it allowed people to pay for different things without using their bank account. 

Despite its popularity, there aren’t many betting websites that allow their clients to make use of it. Therefore, we’ve decided to list four reasons why bookmakers should include Bitcoin as a payment option.

It is one of the safest ways of adding and withdrawing money

Every betting website has to make sure that its customers are safe while they’re betting. As a result, some operators use all sorts of security features, such as an SSL certificate. Despite that, some customers are still worried that they might get hacked, which is why they prefer land-based betting shops and casinos.

Luckily, if you find the best sportsbook that offers Bitcoin, you won’t have to expose your banking details. Since Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency, hackers shouldn’t be able to steal it (although it might be possible in the future), which means that you can make safe transactions.

Millions of people use Bitcoin

It is safe to say that this cryptocurrency is one of the hottest media topics in the last couple of years. That’s why it doesn’t come as a surprise that many people from all over the world use Bitcoin frequently. 

This means that bookies could potentially attract some of them if they decide to add this currency as a payment option.

Bookmakers could potentially win more money

Due to the fact that Bitcoin’s value is continually changing, the websites that work with it could end up winning even more than they’ve anticipated. Of course, this can also work the other way around because no one can guarantee that Bitcoin’s value will continue to go up.

Most of the e-wallets probably won’t be available in the future

Despite Bitcoin’s popularity, bettors still prefer e-wallets. However, we think that cryptocurrencies will eventually become the norm when it comes down to online transactions.

If that happens, some e-wallets might not be available anymore. This means that bookies will have to rearrange their entire payment section.

Final Thoughts

No one knows whether cryptocurrencies will survive the test of time, but by the looks of it, they are here to stay. If you don’t know anything about them, you should read some information because it will come in handy.

Five things to do prior to depositing funds with cryptocurrencies for online betting

Although there are hundreds of online sportsbooks and casinos, only a handful allow their clients to use something for free. The so-called no deposit bonuses are still rare, which is why you have to fund your account if you want to take advantage of the things that each place has to offer.

Making a deposit has never been easier because there are tons of payment methods that you can use. Besides the debit card (which is still the most popular option), bettors also go for things like e-wallets, bank transfers, and cryptocurrencies. The latter consists of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Tether, Litecoin, Dogecoin, etc. All of these things allow customers to make fast and safe transactions, which is why we think that we will see more of them in the future.

Having said that, there are certain things that you need to do before you make a deposit with one of the cryptocurrencies. We suggest reading this article until the end because we will go over the five essential steps that you go through.

  1. Choose a suitable cryptocurrency

Most of these crypto bookmakers have included all of the options that are currently available. This means that you can choose from all of the cryptocurrencies we’ve mentioned above. All of them are great, but if you haven’t used any of them, you need to do thorough research so you can choose the most suitable one.

The vast majority of bettors prefer Bitcoin. Apart from being the most popular one, some betting websites have special Bitcoin promotions that you can’t make use of if you fund your account with another cryptocurrency. Moreover, there are online casinos where you will find unique Bitcoin slots.

  • Check whether there are any fees

Unfortunately, many betting websites will charge you a small fee if you want to fund your account. If it is present, it will apply to all cryptocurrencies, so be sure to check the payment section before you make a transaction.

  • Make sure that you won’t have to wait long for your deposit

Unlike a few years ago, most betting websites allow their customers to fund their accounts right away. In other words, there shouldn’t be any processing time, regardless of what deposit option you go for.

Keep in mind that this usually doesn’t apply to the withdrawal options. Most people who want to claim their winnings will have to wait between 24 hours and a few days, depending on the bookie.

  • Check the value of your preferred cryptocurrencies before you complete the transaction

The next thing that you should check is the current value of the cryptocurrency you’ve chosen. As you know, these values change all the time, so you need to stay up to date because you might deposit a lot more money than you initially wanted.

  • Look at the minimum requirement

Typically, most bookmakers will require their customers to deposit at least $10. However, this condition rarely applies to most cryptocurrencies, which is why you have to check whether there is a specific minimum requirement that you need to comply with.

Why do most bettors prefer Bitcoin over other cryptocurrencies?

We are fortunate to live in a world where we can pay for most things online. Thanks to the various payment options such as e-wallets, debit cards, and cryptocurrencies, we don’t even have to leave our homes to pay our bills.

Besides using them for their monthly expenses, many people purchase different games or use these options to fund their account on one of the many online betting websites. Even though some of them don’t have as many options, most prominent sportsbooks allow their clients to make a deposit and withdraw their winnings using all sorts of payment methods.

Unless you are a fan of e-wallets, you will probably utilize one of the many cryptocurrencies. There are several “hot ones” right now, but the one that stands out is Bitcoin. That’s why it doesn’t come as a surprise that most bettors prefer to fund their accounts with it rather than using any of the other options.

Here are a few reasons why this is the case.

Bitcoin is the most famous cryptocurrency in the world

Although things change fast, Bitcoin continues to be the most popular cryptocurrency in the world. Ever since it became widespread, people have been trying to “mine” as many Bitcoins as possible. If you are one of the people who’s actively using this currency, check this list with bitcoin bookies, and you will find all various betting websites where you can make safe transactions using your favorite cryptocurrency.

Nowadays, there are many other virtual coins out there, some of which might even have more potential than Bitcoin. Nevertheless, this continues to be the most popular option in the world.

It is really expensive

The next reason why many people choose to fund their account and claim their winnings with Bitcoin is due to its value. At the time of writing this article, this is the most expensive cryptocurrency in the world. 

This should theoretically reduce the number of people who can afford it, but it turns out that the high value attracts more bettors. Since it can go up in value even more, people want to use it because their potential winnings can increase automatically. 

For example, if you make a Bitcoin deposit worth $100 and one month later the value goes up to $150, you will have $50 more (as long as you haven’t lost the money, of course).

There are special rewards for Bitcoin users

Lastly, some bettors like this cryptocurrency because it gives them access to unique rewards. In addition to the bonuses, there are betting websites (mainly online casinos), where people can play Bitcoin slots. These games are not available if you make a deposit using any other option.

Will Bitcoin continue to be the most popular cryptocurrency for online betting?

Unless something drastic happens, we believe that Bitcoin will continue to be the go-to cryptocurrency in the next couple of years. However, we suggest keeping an eye on Ethereum because it has a promising future ahead of it. Although it isn’t as expensive as Bitcoin right now, this might change soon.
