Retail Watchers

This feels like a bit of a dying product category to me. I am seeing more and more imported products in these items and fewer and fewer options in general. Too many of these products have high fructose corn syrup when they probably should not, yet also have a pretty high price tag. I expect cleaner...

These are about the size of many other supermarkets in New York City. I would estimate that the average NYC supermarket is 15-20,000 square feet, with plenty below 15 or even 10,000. The one they're opening first is a former Food Emporium. Now, Whole Foods actually used this "Daily Shop" ...

Different price range than Sephora or Ulta. The usual places for these are lifestyle centers, the surviving high end malls, urban neighborhoods, or inner ring suburban downtowns. It shouldn't be difficult to find 30 of those locations. Kiehl's (one of the lines they sell) closed a lot of stores dur...

Nothing surprising here, Macy's and Sears departed both of these long ago: Shenango Valley is a dead mall whose owners want to redevelop the property as a multi-use town center. JCP has been in long litigation to prevent this and recently lost. It's the weakest mall in the Warren-Youngstown area and...

I'm not aware of any Giant-MD pharmacy closing without the store itself closing. All of the new and relocated stores Giant-MD has built near me have pharmacies in them. Giant-MD is the only super market chain in the DC area that has ever had much in the way of pharmacy market share. The Safeway and...

The point of the store is to serve people who aren't going to the suburban locations. It's not meant to serve carbound suburbanites and it makes no sense to approach it that way. It's basically an IKEA version of a retail model that's been a round for a long time. Lot's of furniture stores have had ...

Bi-Lo was dire. No other word for that chain. Also someone mentioned up thread somewhere about pharmacies being closed in Stop & Shop Stores in some cases. What is that all about. Does Ahold have a tract record of random pharmacy closures too? Albertsons/Safeway have ZERO tract record of pharma...
