Serving associates well in a competitive industry
The food retail industry in which most of Ahold's companies operate is
characterized by high labor costs and low profit margins. In recent years,
our industry has become more competitive, due to the entry of low cost
discounters into most of our markets and with more food being purchased
outside of the supermarket. This calls for companies to positively
differentiate themselves in customers' perception while operating as
efficiently as possible. It also means focus on cost control and flexibility
compete with attention to building workforce capabilities and personal
development of our associates.
