Commenting on the results, Ratih D. Gianda, VP Investor Relations, Corporate Communications and Sustainability of MAP advised, “The final quarter of 2021 demonstrated the power of the MAP branded commerce model. Our multi-channel selling strategies across all avenues of distribution, whether malls, digital channels, or our marketplace partners, captured our diverse consumer base in all the varied channels that they wish to shop.”
Ratih stressed, “No other company demonstrates our multi-channel ‘reach’ to consumers, across such a broad portfolio of categories, brands, and retail touch points. The results of Q4 are witness to the long term strength of the MAP brand.”
During the quarter, while sales were positive across all fascia’s, MAP saw particular buoyancy across sports and leisure products and Digital gadgets. The company also took full advantage of improved consumer sentiment to launch the new brands of Subway, FitFlop, and Etude in many established malls across Jakarta.
Q4 concurrently saw new digital channels become live for Lacoste, Converse, Bershka, and Mango, bringing the total number of MAP online sites to 21 by end of Dec’21. Digital sales for FY21 grew 48% YoY with particular success experienced in sports, fashion, and gadget items.
Investments in its prime MAP CLUB shoppers continued to yield improved productivity as reflected by the overall improvements in sales and net income. Additionally, MAP also took full advantage of its MAP CLUB member analytics to further refine its buying and merchandising strategies. With Q3 sales dampened by mall closures, the company successfully adapted its inventory planning to maximize Q4 sales, while boosting margins, and reducing inventory days to 116 days in Q4, lower than 186 days in Q3.
Ratih said, “By remaining hyper focused on our customers via MAP CLUB analytics, we were able to sharpen our buying and selling strategies, resulting in much improved Q4 revenues and earnings. And with our member metrics continuing to improve, we remain confident of continued upside across all our businesses.”
However, Ratih cautioned, “There continues to be uncertainty related to Covid-19 and the Omicron strain which has potential to impact supply chain and general business momentum leading into Q1’22. We remain cautious of these aspects, and continue to manage accordingly in the best interests of our employees, customers, and shareholders”
Nevertheless, MAP remain firmly committed to its 2-point strategy of delivering consistent long term earnings :
1. Leveraging MAP CLUB Rewards to drive ever increasing customer engagement and higher sales conversions.
2. Continued investments in new businesses, brands, and ASEAN market expansion to expand reach to ever more customers across more territories.
“MAP is Shopping for Everyone, and our best years are still ahead!” Ratih as always concluded.
