How about these stores in dying malls?
Why would belk want a store in a dying or dead mall, when all other retailers have closed?

Using Savvy as a rep is something else. 😂

Same priority loaded twice at a monthly store, stuff gets added after I’ve already made my last visit, and some priorities are buried where the planograms are supposed to be. It’s basically a scavenger hunt just trying to close everything out.

Then you’ve got static clings, local sell-ins that never actually got sold in, and priorities for stores that are closed or burnt down.

Now I’m calling all my liq-or stores asking if they have the display up and if they can send me a picture because I won’t be back before the period ends. Then we’re sitting in my boss’s office uploading pictures trying to hit the number.

But yeah… frontline execution.

Does anyone know the tell-tale sign your store is closing even before it is formally announced?

I read that the Store Operational Excellence Certification officially starts in January! Any pilot stores in here? I have heard it is brutal and almost impossible to pass. Not a pilot store? I’d still love to hear your thoughts. Thankfully, I will be leaving after I get my bonus!

So are they done with stores, if not what’s the final number and time frame?

Those of you that are already RTM. How many stores do you have? Did you gain stores, lose stores are pretty much stay the same?

So tired of cheap a$$ Macy's not replacing compressors

Grocery Outlet announced plans to close 36 underperforming stores by year-end. Nine of these closures will occur in California. The company reported a $225 million net loss for fiscal year 2025. Overexpansion and a lack of "wow" deals contributed to its struggles. Grocery Outlet aims to improve performance by focusing on store clusters.

Can anyone share the NN75 store list for 2026? Want to see which stores are being targeted for improvements this year. Hopefully more will be worked on the the southern stores.

At the full line store in Scottsdale, I have to have permission before I go to the bathroom. Are you kidding!
380 is a dumpster fire.

Will retail locations be closing? Anyone heard of the layoffs affecting retail?

Sanford, St. Mary’s, Cordele, Tulsa, and several other locations will be closing in 2026 permanently. In the meanwhile, the company is describing the new "market stores" as a new concept that'll help Belk just like the outlet talks of a few years back lol.
