Abstract
This paper maintains that there are four key retail marketing strategies. These are: mass retailing, differentiating, segmenting and positioning. Positioning is considered to be one of the most widespread retailing strategies. At the present time it is only gaining momentum. It is likely to follow the patterns product marketing has been setting. Product marketing strategies have included positioning as one of the key alternatives for a decade or so. It is maintained that retailing follows product marketing strategies with a time lag of 5 to 10 years.
