IRGS Students Visited AUCHAN Retail Russia
When we go to a store, we immediately notice external things: goods on a shelf, their price, variety, advertising, and promotions. The students of the International Relations and Global Studies programme had a unique opportunity to see how all the processes are set up from the inside, and who is responsible for them. AUCHAN retail chain served as an example. Alexander Lebedev teaching Marketing Research in the programme helped students to focus on the specifics of AUCHAN's work from a marketing perspective.
