Governor Retailing in Canada continues to evolve and change, and growing the business and profits is frustratingly slow in this climate of rapid change. However, success will go to those who are most responsive to the customer and marketplace while respecting the fundamentals of the business. Although we are disappointed with the year’s results, we remain confident and committed to the strategy of an integrated Hbc delivering increasingly better and targeted assortments through distinct yet integrated banners, backed by a solid balance sheet, great real estate and a robust “back-of-house” capability. The consumer continues to be ever more price conscious and selective, for the past decade we have experienced a low level general deflation that is forcing more units at lower prices into the marketplace as retailers look for sales growth. At Hbc, we are accelerating the pace of offering our customers ever better value through consolidating our purchases and finding or engineering great values internationally. Our programs such as Power Buys, Style Outlets and our newest entry, Designer Depot, are meant to ensure we remain in the forefront of delivering value to Canadians.
