One thought on “Store closings may accelerate as retailers face problems far beyond tariffs

  1. Fact of the matter is retailers come and go.
    They always have and they always will.
    The consumer is a fickle bunch and if you don’t deliver you will be out of business. It is survival of the fittest.
    In spite of the closings, retail vacancies are very low and space in the most sought out markets is extremely difficult to find and commanding record prices.
    Just remember retail real estate and retailers are like all other things in that “the only constant is change” and those who adjust to the times will survive who those who do not will be left behind.
