Reliance Fresh – scope for improvement

The outlet, particularly at CBD, Belapur (Navi Mumbai) is in a bad shape. The so-called FRESH vegetables are not fresh. Old stocks are kept in the racks for extended time periods giving not a good and appreciable sight. The green vegetables (patta vegetables) are not cleaned at all. So much soil in the vegetables. I do not understand how such a big and quality-conscious organization can do such things?

It is also a fact that the outlet must be doing well inspite of so many problems such as non-availability of second weighing machine, improper deployment of the staff, etc, etc. This is not because of the quality but mere helplessness of the consumers. No competition.

The nearby residents are of the firm opinion that the quality of vegetables and fruits should improve. The not-so-fresh vegetables and fruits should be sold at 50% discount (late in the evening) so that these are not wasted. It is criminal to throw-away so much of the vegetables and fruits when poor people do not get to eat these things. Large quantity of spoiled vegetables and fruits are disposed as garbage daily from the Belapur out-let.
