Burger chain cancels breakfast at hundreds of restaurants (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When you operate a business, it costs you money to not be open. You still pay rent and utilities, even when you're closed. Because of that, back in my days as a toy store general manager, I tried very hard to keep the store open profitably as much as possible. That meant not just opening the doors more, but also finding an audience for those dayparts. On Friday nights, for example, we kept part of the store open for people to play Magic: The Gathering. That meant paying someone to officiate the
CVS division completes Chapter 11 bankruptcy liquidation (opens the original)
Read excerpt
For decades, CVS seemed like the perfect business. It was convenient, sold a mix of products people wanted, and everyone was forced to go there (or to one of its rivals) when they needed to pick up a prescription. Now, however, the company has been fighting a war on many fronts. Consumers can order much of what made the chain convenient for delivery, and various online services, including Amazon, now fill prescriptions.

Kroger wants you to stop buying the brands you grew up with (opens the original)

As a consumer, I'm mixed on private-label brands. I'll buy Costco's Kirkland brand for over-the-counter (OTC) medicine, but I'm wary about using any private label when it comes to food.

Dick's Sporting Goods has been one of the big success stories in the brick-and-mortar retail space. At a time when many rivals have been shrinking their physical store counts, the sporting goods giant has leaned into stores, creating new experiential concepts and generally rethinking its retail strategy. The chain has selectively built House of Sport locations that offer running tracks, batting cages, golf simulators, and other interactive options. "House of Sport locations now seeing 5-6 times
Kroger knows what's wrong with its stores (opens the original)
Read excerpt
While it's a giant player in the grocery space, Kroger lacks the buying power of bigger rivals Amazon and Walmart. You can add Costco to that list as well because its limited product selection magnifies its leverage with retailers. Unlike Kroger, Walmart and Amazon have other businesses, from advertising and memberships to general merchandise, that can benefit when they attract a grocery customer. And unlike Walmart, Amazon, and Costco, Kroger actually needs to make money from selling groceries.
