This experiment turned out to be positive and in 2016 the first ever standalone Zudio store was opened in Bangalore. This was the official start of Zudio as a separate brand, ready to make its own mark in the fashion world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zudio is owned by a company called Trent Limited which is part of the TATA Group and it&#8217;s the same company that runs the popular clothing store, Westside. This connection to Tata and Trent helped Zudio in two ways: first the trust of customers for TATA group and secondly the experience that Trent had already learnt from running Westside for about 20 years, made it an experienced market player. All this helped Zudio in avoiding common mistakes that new companies make, allowing it to grow much faster.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-mission-and-vision\">Mission and Vision<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zudio\u2019s has one simple mission, to make trendy fashion available to everyone at affordable prices. The brand wanted to cater to anyone that wants to look fashionable on an affordable shopping budget, which includes college students with limited pocket money, young professionals starting their careers, and families looking for good value.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-target-audience\">Target Audience<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zudio knew exactly who it wanted to sell to as their main focus is on people between the ages of 18 and 35. Talking about the geographic location of the brand, it is mainly located in Tier-2 and Tier-3 cities where 80% of India\u2019s youth population is residing that does not have direct access to the trendy clothes physically.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read Also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocketful.in\/blog\/zara-case-study\/\">Zara Case Study: Business Model and Pricing Strategies<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-zudio-business-model\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_Zudio_Business_Model\"><\/span>The Zudio Business Model<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-the-aaa-value-proposition\">The &#8216;AAA&#8217; Value Proposition<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zudio has a strategy that can be categorized under the \u201cAAA Formula\u201d meaning Accessibility that is easy to locate stores, affordability which can be seen in its low priced articles and attractive products keeping the trendy clothes available for the masses, The brand offers fast-fashion collections updated every 2\u20133 weeks, inspired by international trends.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-product-and-pricing-strategy\">Product and Pricing Strategy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>In-House Brands Only:<\/strong> Zudio stores do not have other brands, rather they create and sell their own products under the same brand name with Zudio\u2019s private labels. This gives the company full control over the clothes design, quality and mainly the price of the articles.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Attractive Pricing:<\/strong> Every article available in the company\u2019s store is available under Rs.999 making it most attractive amongst the customers. Buyers can find T-shirts as low as Rs.199, with these low prices shopping becomes very easy and customers build trust as all the pricing are clear without any confusing discounts or hidden charges.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Up-to-date Fashion:<\/strong> The company keeps the stock up to date as it follows the fast-fashion model where Zudio continuously changes its collections updated every 2\u20133 weeks by bringing new trendy clothes as per the ongoing fashion allowing the customers to have a variety of choices.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-retail-and-distribution-strategy\">Retail and Distribution Strategy<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The Offline store:<\/strong> In the rapidly increasing digital presence where every brand wants to sell online Zudio sticks to the offline mode with its physical stores and this is the main part of the strategy. This saves the brand from high costs of delivery and even return of the articles, with physical stores the brand brings the customer to the stores where they see and end up buying more than what they have planned for.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Strategized Store Locations:<\/strong> The brand strategically uses the data and looks for areas that have a good population that is residing, working or studying there.\u00a0 You might have witnessed that the stores are located in highly populated Tier 2 markets than in some posh location with low population density. As the company aims at having at least 2,000 target customers in every 3 kilometer radius to reach its target.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>The FOCO Model:<\/strong> Zudio works on an easy franchise model called FOCO, which stands for Franchise-Owned, Company-Operated. In this a person (investor or the franchisee) pays about Rs. 1.5 &#8211; 4 crore in setting up the entire store and the company (Zudio) takes over and does everything from managing, running and even the staff selling the products.\u00a0<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>This model helps in the rapid growth of the brand, as Zudio does not spend its own money in opening the stores which saves the money and investing more in keeping the products priced low. Also the brand word-of-mouth game is very strong resulting in high sales making the stores profitable and this attracts more investors to invest in its franchise model.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-supply-chain-and-revenue-model\">Supply Chain and Revenue Model<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The clothes are designed in house by the brand and made in large quantities by different manufacturers which keeps the manufacturing cost very low. And the continuous updating of collections makes the clothes sell quickly. Zudio also has a very low unsold clothes stock and focuses on generating the whole revenue from selling a large volume of products.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Read also:\u00a0<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pocketful.in\/blog\/nike-case-study\/\">Nike Case Study: Business Model &amp; Marketing Strategy<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-marketing-strategy-of-zudio\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Marketing_Strategy_of_Zudio\"><\/span>Marketing Strategy of Zudio<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The most surprising thing about this brand is that it spends very little on its advertising, you won\u2019t notice their billboards or ads on TV.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-store-advertisement\">Store Advertisement<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Zudio\u2019s main investment is its stores that are minimalistically built in clean large spaces with good lighting. This gives a more fine shopping experience to the customers which overwhelms them and helps in a positive outlay of the store, giving them a positive view about the physical store.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-word-of-mouth\">Word-of-Mouth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Due to the pricing and quality of the article the buyers help in offline marketing using the word-of-mouth technique, this plays a proactive role in the advertisement of the brand. The satisfied customers naturally tell their friends and families about the great deals that they have found in Zudio stores which helps in creating a powerful and trustworthy marketing channel of recurring customers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\" id=\"h-user-generated-content-ugc\">User-Generated Content (UGC)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The brand does not run their own social media campaigns but the customers turns out to be the real marketer of the brand as all the new customers show their new clothes on social media and even platforms like Instagram and Youtube have multiple content creators that post \u201cZudio Haul\u201d videos showing all their new purchases.
