Andrew Dalby, CEO of Richard Pieris Distributors Ltd said, “We chose September to launch this campaign because after the school holidays we understand that many families have had to spend a little more . “Share the Bill” promotional campaign was launched in order to share with our valued customers, by helping them in making their rupees stretch a little further.”
This is the first time a retail outlet has gone so far as to initiate a campaign that would conceptually allow the customer to “Share the Bill”, and Arpico Supercentres report that the results were phenomenal right from the first week. Awareness and understanding of the relationship and expectations of customers keeps Arpico Supercentre ahead of the rest in terms of innovation and ideas.
