Industry Definition The world of business today is changing at a fast pace. Various macro economic factors like the slowing down of the growth prospects of various emerging markets like India and China, the extended gloomy period of slowdown in the European markets triggered by the financial deadlock evolving out of the Eurozone as well as job cuts in the US are changing the business scenarios for small as well as large business organizations. The consumer needs and demands are also evolving every day and every week due to the pressurized situations built up by the play of multiple macro economic factors. The macro economic factors are in fact influencing and bringing in a change of consumer behavior both in the developing as well as the developed countries. In the Asian countries, especially in India, there was an old concept of recycling and repairing goods to save costs. Also, the consumers in the Asian countries, unlike their western counterparts are more interested in the concepts of extracting maximum value for the money invested. An emerging management concept of “Juggaad” which means taking into account the power of substitutes is slowly beginning to get inculcated in the mindsets of the Western consumers as well.
