  • KURT SALMON REVIEW Retail
    KURT SALMON REVIEW Retail. Consumer. Private Equity. Strategy. IN THIS ISSUE Why full- and off-price stores make good neighbors 4 How to pick best-of- the-bunch organic brands 24 Bringing store performance into focus with new KPIs 32 Small fitness studios, big opportunities 42 Issue 05 Retail and Consumer Edition I II From the Editor We all know that the retail and consumer industry has changed significantly—and that the pace of change will only continue to accelerate. But many players in this constantly evolving industry have continued with business as usual or have made only small adjustments. When faced with an industry—and a consumer—in the midst of revolution, the only prop- er response is dramatic transformation, change that will impact the entire organization. In this issue, we explore innovative new ways of doing business across many categories and parts of the organization. In “Close Encounters,” we detail why retailers’ historical fear of letting their outlet doors creep too close to their full-price counterparts is misguided and, using Nordstrom as an example, show why retailers need to totally revamp their off-price real estate strategy. Meanwhile, “Unchained” explores why and how large chain retailers must take a totally new, big-picture approach to their products and customer experience by thinking small. This David vs. Goliath concept carries over into “Sweating Small,” which recounts how boutique fitness studios are shaking up the industry—and how investors can get a piece of this hot market. As always, I hope you find this issue insightful and look forward to hearing from you.
