    The Strategic Retail Genius Behind Zara - Forbes 5/10/16, 7:36 AM http://onforb.es/GR1gdd Lydia Dishman Contributor My beat is fashion, retail and e-commerce. Opinions expressed by Forbes Contributors are their own. LIFESTYLE 3/23/2012 @ 11:41AM 94,660 views The Strategic Retail Genius Behind Zara Pssst, retailers, want to know the secret of boosting sales and profits? Hint: It’s not all about trimming expenses (ahem Home Depot) or focusing on a single pricing strategy (cough jcpenney cough). Take a look at Spain’s Inditex SA, parent company of fast-fashion chain Zara. The world’s largest clothing retailer by sales reported a 12 percent surge in net profits to $2.68 billion and a 10 percent net sales gain to $19.15 billion for the fiscal year ending January 31. Those increases mark the third straight year of gains during a tough economic climate with fiscal 2010′s 13 percent increase in net sales 9 percent in 2009, and 12 percent in 2008. So how are they beating analyst estimates year after year? Here are three reasons. Grabbing the Globe by the Purse Zara stores have been popping up all over, literally. This past year aggressive expansion saw Inditex investing in 49 markets. Five of them were new to the brand and included Australia, Taiwan, Azerbaijan, South Africa and Peru. The company continued to grow its presence in China which had 132 new stores throw open their doors. 30 those were Zara locations http://www.forbes.com/sites/lydiadishman/2012/03/23/the-strategic-retail-genius-behind-zara/print/ Page 1 of 3 The Strategic Retail Genius Behind Zara - Forbes 5/10/16, 7:36 AM and others were Inditex concepts, Oysho and Zara Home bringing the total number of Inditex stores there to 275.

    BLOMINVEST Calling All Shopaholics and Fashionistas: It’s finally Time to BANK Really Help the Lebanese Economy! While talented Lebanese designers were dressing worldwide celebrities and invading haute couture catwalks in the international fashion weeks, Leban on’s apparel industry seemed to be fading over March 14, 2015 the past few years. This is certainly related to the country’s dwindling retail sector, which is one of the biggest contributors to Lebanon’s Contact Information growth, constituting near 13% of total economic activity in 20131. Research Analyst: Mirna Chami [email protected] Mirroring the economy’s path, and following 2 years of bearish activity, the apparel sector in 2014 revealed a stagnating to declining Head of Research: Marwan Mikhael performance that was associated to the country’s ongoing [email protected] instabilities and political stalemates.

Given this relationship, it is safe to say that the more dependent a store is on tourists the more likely they are to have witnessed a drop in sales.
