MNC Group secures 20% of the UK Sat Nav (Car GPS) market in 2006. Managing Director P.W.James says, "UK Shoppers have been frustrated for years of high hiked prices with leading retailers and now are changing shopping habits. Before the World Wide Web shoppers were limited to choice of where to buy. But not now. We can play the bullies at their own game and pass the savings on to the customer."
One could say MNC have helped the consumer. With MNC competing against the monarchy of Britain's retailers (AKA The Bullies) and beating them on price, means the price is always dropping. The effect of this makes desirable products ready available for more people than ever before. People who could not afford a Sat Nav can now afford two with change for an in Car Stereo. Only retailers like Halfords could stock such products and demand extortionate prices. This has now all changed.
MNC Group UK Sales Director Lee J Gomersall: "A typical Sat Nav Garmin StreetPilot III was 1500 in 1999 and only 0.7% of the UK resident owned one." MNC saw a corner in the market and started the SatNav marketing push on the web at the end of the .com boom. Companies followed MNC strategiesand by the year 2002 five major UK Sat Nav online retailers had started a Sat Nav gadget revolution
By the year 2003, Major UK retails including Halfords, Curry's and Dixons started retailing Sat Nav. These retailers had the buying power and started to throw their weight a round, you could say bulling. This caused a price war between manufactures, which brought down the retail price. Managing director P.W.James says, "The last time we saw a price war like this was when PC'S and Laptops crashed in price. Garmin, Navman and TomTom manufactures of Satellite navigations systems are now in a price war trying to compete to get the business off the Major UK retails." As a experienced distributor MNC can always compete on price and always offer a cheaper price than the retail shops in the UK. MNC overheads are lower, but more importantly MNC have a wider knowledge of the products have a more experienced background in Sat Nav and online marketing.
