concept for hardware retailing business in Indonesia AJBS, as the first self-serve
hardware store in Indonesia, has tried to introduce the new self- served concept in

buying behavior, is it possible to apply this new concept in Indonesia? Derived
from this question, the writers came up with two problems definitions: (1) Why is
AJBS Swalayan not the first choice of the industries/ factaries to buy hardware/
technical tools? (2) Why AJBS Swalayan not successful in applying the ideal
retail mix strategy?

hardware industry?s customer buying behavior and the real practices of AJBS?
retail mix strategy in the accordance with the ideal retail mix strategy.
