Sheng Siong continues to give customers high priority like good customers service staff, convenient shopping, selling good stuff cheaper than other supermarkets, because customers should feel there is nothing to lose to shop in Sheng Siong Employers: They train their employers well to solve the complex issues for customer, Even they used to motivate their staff with their tagline you have to stand in a queue to buy everything these days, But you dont need to queue for shopping in Sheng Siong Suppliers: In every organization suppliers play a prominent role. At first Sheng Siong buys products from wholesalers and then after in 2008 they started to buy products from direct suppliers/manufactures to get more profits and also it is proved. Sheng Siong doesnt get profit only from customers they also get income from manufactures.

Share Holders: Giving a good value for share holders and make their attract to their company is one of the policies Sheng Siong made. They create value for their share holders by planning to adopt several key strategies to increase productivity, growth and profitability.

Media: Advertising is one of key internal factor in the business for that they use media even Sheng Siong also advertised in media about their products and service. They took a next step in 2001 may they started a television show A Sheng Siong show in which there are children competitions, Luck draws prizes to get into more people mind. Competitors: Every company has competitive strategy for them to compete with competitors. The competitive strength of Sheng Siong is the established brand name, Price products, launching house brands, extending operating hours etc. Micro environmental factors: Economic factors: During economic circus in 2008, they produced lot of products that are suitable per all customers. So every company should think of economical factors and provide some products that every customer should buy according to their economical situation. Demographic factors: These are the factors that depend on age, gender, family, occupation, education, race and community religion. So produce all products Sheng Siong have based on their factors to increase their growth. Legal factors: Every company should follow all the lows and regulation acts by the government particular country. In case of Sheng Siong they have to pay taxes as per government rules and they should change the price of the products as per taxes.

Political: The political factors that affect Sheng Siong are trade and economic policies of government. Because every time government introduces a new economic policy they have to change their strategy to maintain stability.

Social: Every company depends upon the social factors like natural hazards etc. The companies should be prepared for social factors that affect the business. Technological: Technology is the main aspect in every organization. In case of sheng Siong they have to use better technology than their competitor to serve the customer and also their employees.

Environmental trends that affects business: So many businesses in the world are changing their attitude towards environment. Green business is increasing in these days in the mind of people due to their interests shift towards environmental consciousness and projection of current trends. In case of Sheng siong they give lot of importance on supporting and keeping our environmental green and for that they introduced conservation measures to maintain the environmental. They encouraged recycling and also use of environmental friendly products.

Marketing information systems: Every business formally gathers the marketing data and they will analyze, and it will be distributed to manager which helps in decision making

Marketing research and forecasting

Customer service and support

In case of sheng siong they should use this marketing information to perform well in future. They should introduce some membership cards from that they can easily know the products sales and also they should provide. Customer feedback slips from that they can know the problems the customer which facing and they can rectify in future and improve the product and expand their stores. In the world of competition every business should introduce a new product that attracts the people than other companies.

Conclusion: In future I suggest sheng siong group have to analyze and understand all these factors in order to make a strategic decision making to innovative more and more customer friendly products at affordable prices in every situation. In future I clearly says that sheng siong will rank higher position in the retail market in Singapore Bibliography:
