Bodega Aurrerá has become one of the leading group brands Walmartaccording to Walmex reports.
The index of employees of Bodega Aurrerá based on their gender gives us an antecedent of what is valuable in retail.
employability in Walmart contrasts with announcements like the ones he made at the time Amazonwith massive layoffs.
A high percentage of women predominate in the labor force of Aurrera Winery, which coincides with his trademark mascot being a masked woman. Apart from employment benefits, such as salary and benefits, the figure is a benchmark that helps us size up talent management in retail.
“There is a study that helps us understand how important it is to measure retail based on employability and that is Tugba Sabanoglu, research leader in non-food GC and retail, explains that “in February 2022, the net change in US retail employment was positive, at 395,100 compared to the 12-month period. Compared to the previous month (January 2022), the employment variation was positive by 15.4 thousand”, this by presenting a study of the Bureau of Labor Statistics exclusively for subscribers Statista.
More employees at Bodega Aurrerá
In the 2,300 stores that operate in Bodega Aurrerá, 59 percent of the 89,000 associates are women and the indicator proves the value of talent management based on elements such as parity and a greater inclusion of women .
The figures are part of the announcement that was released this week, with the opening of the 2,300 store, which allows the famous supermarket chain to strengthen the sales segment with self-collection points and home delivery in less than 24 hours in super purchases made online.
The opening event of his new store took place in Cadereyta, Nuevo León, a state where he has invested 16 thousand 800 million pesos since his arrival, which gives us a very important dimension of how much the retail in a market segment to operate your business.
This interesting exercise is a precedent for how important it is today to establish commercial parameters and not only that, actions that help to understand the consumer from strategic guidelines, but related to talent management.
A clear example of this compression can be seen with Amazonwhen the brand announced the layoff of more than 18,000 employees in a move that joined other technology companies in the trend of mass layoffs, which have been experienced in resentment of inflation.
“Amazon It has weathered uncertain and difficult economic times in the past, and we will continue to do so. These changes will help us find our opportunities in the long term, with a more solid cost structure (…) Companies that last a long time go through different phases. They are not in a massive headcount expansion mode every year,” argued the CEO of Amazon, Andy Jassy.
With these challenges at hand, a very valuable resource in consumption is evident and it is the one that has to do with the way in which consumption activities have been defined based on the talent that is at hand. Given this adjustment in human resources, while supermarket stores such as Bodega Aurrerá, due to the volume and market where it operates, require a strong presence of human capital, other stores such as oxxo already test formulas advertised as grab and gowith which they seek to explain digitization as much as possible.
