The argument concludes that HobCo should choose southeastern Grilldon as the site for their next HobCo Hobby Shop as it willdraw a steady stream of enthusiastic new HobCo customers. The conclusion is based on the premise that hobby business has increased, there are not many competitors and shops and Grilldon has a large population of retired people; all of these factors will increase the business of new shop and will draw large number of customers. The reasoning in the argument is logically flawed, however, as it relies on a number of assumptions, which appear to be unsupported due to lack of appropriate data and information. First, the author needs to provide information on future plans of people or competitors who are looking to set up hobby shops in the Grilldon area.

In E-Commerce and Operations Research in Airline Planning, Marketing, and Distribution by Barry C. Smith, Dirk P. Günther, B. Venkateshwara Rao and Richard M.

The justification of this study lies on two main reasons: Mauritius' relatively new in the e-commerce sector and the lack of real study in the Mauritian context. The research will also help in understanding the level of adoption of Ecommerce, identifying the different factors which affect or contribute to the success of e-commerce in the retail industry. The study will investigate the prospective of e-commerce in the Mauritian retail industry and determine if this can be a potential reality. Hopefully, the findings of this thesis will help discover where Mauritius stands and what strategies it can employ to enhance the growth of this sector. The paper has been structured as follows: firstly we have a thorough literature review that critically examines the different factors affecting the consumer behaviour as regards to e-commerce in the retail industry.
E-commerce (electronic commerce or EC) is the buying and selling of goods and services, or the transmitting of funds or data, over an electronic network, primarily the internet. The terms e-commerce and e-business are often used interchangeably. The term e-tail is also sometimes used. Or what we know and familiar with as online shopping.
Since the beginning of the 1990’s, e-commerce has radically changed consumer behaviour by introducing new retail channels (Ngai and Gunasekaran, 2007). Serious attempts to trade online started to emerge in the mid-1990s wheninnovative, technically savvy companies responded to the opportunities and challenges posed by the internet, to develop sophisticated web sites to serve customers, in their homes (Rayport and Sviokla, 1994). The present retail environment is characterised by new, store and non- store, retailing formats, a wide range of new products, use of new information and communication technologies and consequently, the changing customer needs. Moreover, the dynamic lifestyle conditions of consumers has resulted a change in their personal environment that contributes to a profound change in customer behaviour (Schröder and Zaharia, 2008). Retailing in the 21st century means doing business with customers on their terms (Mathwicket al., 2002).
Causes According to Amin & Noor (2013), the E-consumers generally refer to the purchaser of goods and services over electronic systems such as Internet and other computer networks. This new group of consumers is increasing in number over the years as on-line shopping become a trend and manifestation of modern life style. Based from the Paynter & Lim (2001), E-commerce would provide consumers with benefits such as interactive communications, fast delivery, and more customization that would only be available for consumers through online shopping. Product information in the Internet is more compact and it ranges from various sites.
E-commerce is growing faster than any other retail sector and is being embraced by more people every day. However, retailers are definitely not obsolete. In truth, statistics have shown that around 90% of sales still take place in retail stores, whereas online sales only make up to 10 % with an expected increase of 15% annually. This essay will focus on the development of e-tail trends and what their benefits and drawbacks are. For coherence, my argumentation will concentrate on 3 factors; starting with a closer look at the convenient aspects of e-tail, followed by the availability of goods and lastly looking at prices/costs.
