1 Pa Project Snapshot
1.1Executive Summary
This study aims at determining the Feasibility Study for the establishment of a
Commercial Shopping Center (Mall) in Sangeet Chowk of Itahari. The mall will
provide all the services needed by the customers while shopping, to meet their family
and personal needs in one safe and clean place, and a one that ensures the existence of
car parking away from the overcrowded places within the business area within the
periphery of main city. The mall includes a clothes stores, footwear stores, gifts stores
and accessories stores. In addition, the mall includes banks, jims, restaurants,
recreational area for children and adults, cafes and others. The reason behind
establishing the Mall is due to the current over crowdedness of the business Areas and
the difficulty of finding suitable parking for shoppers, and the lack of a
comprehensive recreational center that is suitable for families in the Area of
Maharjgunj.

3Project Background
3.1Introduction
The global food landscape is rapidly evolving as consumer needs shift with changing
lifestyles. Food habits and tastes are amalgamating in the global melting pot.
Consumers are increasingly becoming aware of internationally established brands and
standards. They are more open to experimenting with processed and convenience food
than their predecessors. With these changes, manufacturers, retailers and suppliers of
food and consumer items are reorienting their businesses strategies to meet these
demands. The globalization and liberalization of Nepal’s economy has also opened

doors of world to natives of Nepal who are scouting career and business opportunities
overseas.
According to the International Labor Organization, 68% of Nepal's population is

employed in the agriculture and forestry sector, accounting for 34% of the GDP. The
agriculture sector contributes around 33% of the GDP of Nepal. Nepal produces wide
varieties of fruits and vegetables and it produced about 37 lakhs MT of vegetables and
10.96 Lakhs MT of fruits in 2015-16. The production of fruits and vegetables, during
2005-06 to 2015-16, has grown at a CAGR of 7% and 5% respectively. Nevertheless,
Nepal struggles to produce an adequate supply of food for its citizens and imports
large food supplies from its neighboring countries such as India and China
A strong and dynamic food supply chain is important for diversification and
commercialization of Nepalese agriculture. However, food supply chain is marred by
various problems viz. lack of post-harvest and marketing infrastructures, seasonality,
high capital investment for setting up captive infrastructure, high cost of packaging
material etc. The situation is further aggravated due to lack of R&D, quality testing
facilities, poor logistics and lack of awareness amongst farmers on Good Agricultural
Practices. As it is evident from the above that the problem plaguing food supply chain
are not limited to one specific area and the gaps are prominent across the sector in
entire value chains right from raw material to storage, production, marketing and
logistics. Hence it is imperative to have a comprehensive and integrated approach
towards development of integrated food supply chain to ensure delivery of high
quality food to end consumers in Nepal and reduce dependence of Nepal on imported
food products especially in grains, fruits and vegetables.
3.2Socio Economic Profile of Nepal
Nepal is a landlocked central Himalayan country in South Asia. Nepal is divided into
7 states and 77 districts and 744 local units including 4 metropolises, 13 sub-
metropolises, 246 municipal councils and 481 villages. Having population of 26.4
million Nepal is the 93rd largest country by area. Bordering China in the north and
India in the south, east, and west, it is the largest sovereign Himalayan state. Nepal
has a diverse geography, including fertile plains subalpine forested hills, and eight of
the world's ten tallest mountains, including Mount Everest, the highest point on Earth.

Kathmandu is the nation's capital and largest city. Nepal is a multi-ethnic nation with
Nepali as the official language.
Rice is the staple diet in Nepal and around three million tons are produced annually.
Other major crops are maize, wheat, millet and barley. Besides food grains, Cash
crops like sugarcane, oil seeds, tobacco, jute and tea are also cultivated in large
quantities. The agriculture sector occupies almost one-third of Gross Domestic
Product (GDP) with about two-third of country’s population are dependent in this
sector. Contribution of this sector to GDP was 32.12% in fiscal year 2014-15, which
dropped down to 31.69 percent in fiscal year 2015-16. In fiscal year 2015/16, the
annual growth rate of agriculture sector was expected to be 1.14% at constant prices
of 2000-01.
As per United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs report 2014,
Nepal was among the top ten fastest urbanizing countries of the world during year
1990-2014 at rate of 3 percent. It is projected that in the coming years during 2014-
2050 Nepal will remain among the top ten fastest urbanizing countries in the world at
the increasing rate of 1.9 %. Bringing food to the doorsteps of ever increasing urban
consumers will be a challenge in terms of creation of efficient food supply chain.

Many of these Non-Residential Nepalese (NRNs) have witnessed retail store boom in
other countries and have experienced the shopping experience in large retail stores.
When they return to Nepal, they look for similar experience. However, due to lack of
many players in organized retail, they visit the local kirana shops or limited
alternatives. This segment also demands safe and healthy food especially pesticide
and chemical free. The proposed project will also cater to the need of large number of
NRNs who are nearly 47.48% of the total population of Nepal.
3.4Economy
Nepal is a developing country with an agricultural economy. In recent years, the

country's efforts to expand into manufacturing industries and other technological

sectors have achieved much progress. Farming is the main economic activity followed
by manufacturing, trade and tourism. The chief sources of foreign currency earnings
are merchandise export, services, tourism and Gurkha remittances. The GDP
(constant price-2015-16) was around NRs. 2,248,690.0 million. The GDP of Nepal is
mainly categorized in Agricultural and Non-agricultural GDP and the agricultural
GDP stood at NRs. 651,469.0 million whereas Non-agricultural GDP was NRs.
1,597,222.0 million.

Kathmandu valley is most important industrial and commercial center in Nepal. The
Nepal Stock Exchange, the head office of the national bank, the chamber of
commerce, as well as head offices of national and international banks,
telecommunication companies, the electricity authority, and various other national
and international organizations are in Kathmandu. The major economic hubs are the
New Road, Durbar Marg, Ason and Putalisadak.
As per the economic survey1 conducted by government of Nepal, the economic output
of the metropolitan area alone is worth more than one third of national GDP around
$6.5billion in terms of nominal GDP NPR 550 billion approximately per year $2200
per capita income approx. three times national average. On the other hand, average
per capita income in Nepal has risen at 9.4% Compounded Annual Growth Rate and
has improved from NPR 51,598 in 2010-11 to NPR 80,921 in 2015-16. It is expected
that per capita income in Nepal will grow at the same CAGR for next four years and
the per capita income will be more than double i.e. NPR 115,985.56 in ten years
ending 2019-20. Hence the projection is shown below in figure 3.

2016)
Though average per capita income in Nepal is approx. $ 800 however, there is great
variation between urban and rural consumption. The averages household consumption
of urban and rural households in 2015-16 was NR 4,31,337 and NR 2,48,893
respectively. This shows urban households consume about 1.7 times higher than the
rural households. Food is the major expenditure item in both urban and rural areas in
2015-16 having a proportion of 59.8% in rural and 44.9% in urban area.
3.5Export Import of Food Products in Nepal
There has been significant effect on export import of food items due to urbanization
and changing patterns of food consumption. Demand for food items has increased in
the recent years. As per import export data shown in table below, the export
percentage of food items has significantly decreased whereas import for food items
such as fruits, vegetables, cereals, grains has increased.

With changing consumer preferences and lifestyle, economic growth and higher
disposable income with lowering of trade barriers, Nepal has emerged as an attractive
destination for international brands and similar trend is also observed in apple. In
Nepal more than 40,000 metric tons (MT) of apples, worth more than US$12 million
are imported from India and China. Annually, only about 10% of the apples from
Jumla make their way out of the district. Despite their higher prices compared to local
varieties, consumers prefer imported apples due to uniformity of size, proper sorting,
grading and post-harvest activities adopted, attractive packaging and better
appearance. The peak season for imported apples is normally January-July, which is
the off season for domestic produce. During last 2-3 years, Chinese apples with
protective sleeves have flooded Nepal markets and giving very tough competition to
Indian apple growers.

o Marketing Infrastructure:
 As per the survey conducted, it was observed that very few organized
markets for grains, fruits and vegetables and other food items exist in
entire Nepal. Most of them are kirana stores or small grocery shops.

 The annual progress report 2014-15 by ABPMD

 D shows only 190 organized markets exist for fruits and vegetables and other
food items and rest exist as un-organized markets like Haat Bazaar and
wholesale markets.
 Lack of market information systems, high marketing costs, non-availability or
high cost of quality packaging materials: The project will assist farmers
through farmers service centers. Farmers will be provided with daily market
prices/ other information and aggregation services to plan harvesting and
adopt post-harvest practices to reduce marketing cost and post-harvest losses,

 Kathmandu, the capital city of the Nepal is the most populated city and is
commercial hub of the Nepal with about 8.0 Million population. As per the
2011 census, the population of Kathmandu valley has grown at a rate of 7.8%
during 2001 to 2011. Kathmandu consumes around 1200 MT of Fruits and
Vegetables per day and more than 90% of this consumption is supplied
through only two wholesale markets i.e. Kalimati Wholesale Market and
Private Fruit Market in the city.
 Besides, there is growing demand for healthy and pesticide residue free grains,
fruits and vegetables in Kathmandu and adjoining urban centers due to
increasing awareness and changing consumption pattern. Besides, the existing
markets don’t have any post-harvest infrastructures like cold stores, ripening
chambers etc.
4 Market of the Proposed Mall

4.1The project targets all investors in the commercial and the services sectors from all
over the Valley to enable the residents to get shopping and entertainment services in
one place (Mall) that meet the needs of all family members.
Major drawback of existing marketing chain is a large number of intermediaries,
resulting in increased margins in the chain and multiple handling. As depicted earlier
in para 1.2.3.4, the producer/ farmer receives only 40-45% of price paid by consumer
and while other actors receive the lions share in supply chain without adding much
value. Following supply chain model is proposed to minimize the intermediary
interventions and increase price realization to farmers or first grade of producers. The
proposed model has been developed in view of the present scenario and international
developments, which are expected to influence similar developments in Nepal.

4.2Expected Services and Products

The expected project services include the provision of areas for rent, at least for the
following:
 The hypermarket.
 Restaurants (franchise or local).
 Clothing, shoes, accessories gifts and perfumes stores (international and local)
similar to malls in Amman and the Gulf States.
 Electronics shops.
 Banking services.
 Services shops, such as a pharmacy, Dry Cleaning, Ironing steam and plated
jewelry…etc.
 Bags and gifts shops of leather products.
 Major Telecommunications Companies such as Telecom, NCell
 Famous and reputable cafes.
 Recreational Center for children and adults.
 Safe and clean environment.
 Car parking for mall shoppers and visitors for more than 358 cars inside the
mall, and about 100 cars in front of the mall.
 Others, such as kiosks, which often used to sell candies, ice cream, chips,
potatoes and mobile phone shops and accessories ... etc.
4.3Expected Prices
Since currently there are no malls in nearby area, the prices found in nearby shops in
Maharjgunj have been reviewed. The prices in the commercial markets scattered in
teaching site have been collected. The prices ranged from 40000 to 100000 NRs. per
month for the shop, which has an area about 400-600 square feet. By taking the
average of the leased space of 500 Sq.Ft., then the price per square feet will range
from 800-2000NRs / month / ft2 .Thus, we have determined the pricing strategy for
the project in order to fit with the prevailing prices in , taking into account the
additional services provided by the mall compared to those provided by the current
markets. The following is the expected average rent prices in the Mall.
Table : Expected Average Rent Prices

Membership in the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC),

knowing that the membership costs is reasonable as it does not exceed US 800
a year, and in return, the mall will get many services either free or at
discounted prices, such as mentioning the mall name in the International
Directory of Shopping Centers, as this will facilitates the possibility of
attracting investors from leading international brands, as well as enhance the
promotion of the Mall. It should also be noted that there is an international
university emanating from this Assembly “University of Shopping Centers”,
which is concerned with the teaching of disciplines needed for Malls and
shopping centers.
 Obtaining local and international quality certificates, which give more
confidence to tenants and mall visitors.
 Respecting the rules of hygiene, cleanliness and public safety.
 Maintenance of equipment on an ongoing basis.
 Attaching great importance on the decent appearance of the employees.
 Attaching great importance on the good and decent treatment of tenants.
 Attaching great importance on providing new and innovative services, and
using the technology to deal with the tenants and visitors.
 Credibility in dealing with tenants.
 Conducting promotional activities occasionally, such as kids’ festivals and
other, in addition to joint activities with the tenants to attract more visitors
and customers to them all.
4.5 Expected Market Share
As previously mentioned, the Mall is one of its kinds in Kathmandu, and thus its
market share is measured by its designed capacity design, or its ability to
accommodate potential tenants of various fields in the commercial and service
sectors. As previously explained, the mall has been designed to have a total area of
37,662 m2, divided into three main floors, in addition to one underground floor for
parking area , as the floor can accommodate more than 458cars and 432 bikes..
4.6Demand Analysis
The demand on the services provided by the mall is affected by:

- The number of population.
- The intensity of commercial activity.
- Crowding of the shopping areas in the main city areas and absence of parking
spaces.
- Rent prices.
- Changes in shopping habits.
Considering the area is one the elite’s residence like Office of President, Residence of
Prime Minister and Chief Justice, US, Indian, Russian ,Japanese , Australian, Shree
Lankan, Bangladeshi, Pakistani, UAE etc. embassies and many more diplomatic
missions are within the periphery of radius 1 km. The people working and living
aboard who have tendency of shopping in departmental stores and hypermarket are

living at Maharajgunj, Lazimpat, Golfutar, Baluwatar which are first circle of the
market of the project.
It is note worthy that the proposed Mall site (JibanKunjMaharajgunj) covers more
than the population of Maharajgunj, in addition to Baluwatar, Lazimpat, Ranibari,
Panipokhari, Basbari, Golfutar, Madikhatar etc, as it covers a circle with radius of a
distance that can be traveled in a quarter of an hour drive, this means about 500,000
people, which is the expected date to launch the Mall. And in case of expanding the
circle to cover the area traveled in half an hour by car, and then it can be said that the
mall services will cover more than 1.2 million people.
By dividing the two figures on the Mall area which is amounted to 37562.5 m2, we
find that the number of people covered by the mall services per square meter of the
mall equals 16.67person / m2 or 1.55 person / ft2 of the people who are 15-minute
away by car. For those who are 30-minutes drive, the coverage rate stands at 40
people / m2 or 3.72 person/ft2. According to international studies, the coverage rate of
up to 4 persons / ft2 is considered appropriate. And by assuming that the average
visits to the Mall is six times a year by the people of no more 15minutes drive, while
those who are between 15-30 -minutes away by car, they will visit the mall twice a
year. With the adoption of these figures, we find that the average number of daily
visitors to the mall will be more than 8,200 people on most days of the year, and will
reach more than 12 thousand visitors during summer and holiday seasons and Back to
School Festival.
To determine the purchasing power of visitors, we will use the results of the
Household .Expenditure Survey in 2013, and reflecting them on the potential
customer numbers, in order to get to the second criterion, which measures how much
a person would spend on a range of goods and services provided by the Mall divided
by the Mall area. The following tables show the average household and per capita
expenditure on a range of goods and services provided by rented stores in the Mall.
4.61Food Consumption Pattern of Nepal
The consumption pattern has been changing due to rapid increase in urbanization in
Nepal. The food items such as fresh fruits, vegetables, pulses etc. are being included
in the regular diet of Nepalese people because of health consciousness. The per capita
consumption is provided in table below:

Source: Annual Household survey Nepal 2015-16, Central Bureau of

statistics & UNDP report
The consumption has increased in various segments of food items such as vegetables,
grains and cereals. Based on the secondary research, household consumption pattern
in the Nepal is described below.
Between 2013-2014 and 2015-2016, Nepal per capita consumption of cereals and
grains increased by 8.44% in value terms while per capita fruits consumption has
declined by 14.68%. On the other hand, there was minute change in per capita
vegetable consumption during the same period.
4.62Emerging Trend in Consumption
Due to awareness on safe food, harmful impacts of pesticide menace and health
consciousness and large disposable incomes, there is growing concern among
urbanites for safe and pesticide free food products especially vegetables. More than
ever, consumers are demanding fresh produce to be available all year round and
demand greater variety and high quality. Convenience food are growing in popularity
with an increase in the range of products available, including snack packs, pre-cut and
pre-packed (trimmed, washed, peeled) vegetables and fruits, ready-to-eat salads and
meals etc.

4.7Overview of Main Competitors
Despite the latent demand, retail in Nepal is dominated by unorganised sector and
organised retail is still at a nascent stage in Nepal. There are very few organised
players such as Bhatbhateni, Big Mart, Gemini Grocers, Sale ways, Namaste etc. Bhat
bhateni has 13 super stores in Nepal and offers a full range of 120,000 products from
750 local and international suppliers, including a wide range of groceries, fresh fruits
and vegetables; a broad range of leading international liquor, toiletries and cosmetics
brands; and an extensive choice of kitchenware, clothing, sports, toys and electrical
items. While there are 19 big mart stores and 3 Sales ways stores. In general, it has
been observed that there is less bargaining power of the customers due to lack of
competition in organised retail and they pay fixed prices.

There are many markets in area, the main and the largest is the main market in the

image available in the website of the Group

business area and prospective markets. As for the Malls, there are no Malls in the
particular Maharajgunj within Ring Road, but there are hypermarket chains such as
Namaste branches, and big mart branches, KK Mart Branch and Bhatbhateni
Supermarket. Thus there are no direct competitors for the proposed Mall. However,
the following tables show an overview of the main Malls, which maybe similar to the
proposed Mall, as well as the famous Malls in valley in order to identify their main
characteristics, advantages and strengths, so they can serve as a guide to the proposed
mall to the extent possible.

These details have been reached based on the field survey results and the analysis of
the market size previously mentioned.
It is noteworthy mentioning the importance of paying attention to the “Tenants Mix”,
so that tenants are carefully selected at each floor, while maintaining the non-
recurrence of the powerful competitors, as the presence of a single tenant from each
category should be enough.
In special cases, two tenants of the same category may be allowed, taking into account
the low possibility of affecting one another, or affecting other secondary competitor
tenants.
In general, it has taken into account the possibility of future expansion through the
construction of new floors on the same building if necessary.
