Retail
Do you understand the real cash impact of a change in same store sales?
 |
In retail, same store sales are key but margins and cash are still king. Yet, economic conditions and instant access to competitive pricing have empowered the consumer. Frugality is the new consumer watchword and a frugal customer can mean lower margins. It's no wonder, then, that retailers are focusing on improving performance, simplifying complex business processes, and controlling costs. |
