  • What's Next for Ukpound Shops?
    February 3, 2015 February 3, 2015 What’s Next For UK Pound Shops? Major UK pound shop chains have seen revenues surge in the post-recession years. The economic slump and the Woolworths failure paved the way for this segment’s rapid expansion of stores. With further expansion expected, we think the segment is looking increasingly crowded. Some players are now eying international markets in their bid for growth. DEBORAH WEINSWIG Executive Director–Head Global Retail & Technology Fung Business Intelligence Centre [email protected] New york: 646.839.7017 Fung Business Intelligence Centre (FBIC) publication: UK POUND SHOPS 1 Copyright © 2015 The Fung Group, All rights reserved. February 3, 2015 What’s Next For UK Pound Shops? THE POUND SHOP BOOM Variety-store retailers have proliferated rapidly in the UK, mirroring the store-expansion boom of discount grocery chains (notably Aldi and Lidl), as the low-price, no-frills formula has found particular resonance in Britain’s era of sluggish economic growth. This retail segment encompasses chains like Poundland, 99p Stores and Poundworld, which sell all of their products at fixed price points. Similar to the dollar chains Dollar General and Family Dollar in the US, everything in the pound stores sells for £1 (or 99p) and the goods are bought cheaply in bulk. The group also includes chains with more flexible pricing schemes. Those include B&M Bargains, Home Bargains and Poundstretcher. For both types of stores, the offerings are heavy on beauty and personal care, household fast-moving consumer goods (FMCGs) and food and beverages (particularly confectionery). Other categories typically include do-it-yourself (DIY) and automotive accessories, pet products and seasonal goods.

  • Notice of Designation of TJ Morris Limited Under the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009
    Notice of designation of TJ Morris Limited under the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009 3 September 2019 Introduction and background 1. The Competition Commission (CC) investigated the supply of groceries, following a reference from the Office of Fair Trading (OFT) in May 2006. On 30 April 2008 the final report was published and set out the CC’s findings from the investigation (CC Report). The CC found adverse effects on competition arising in several areas including the exercise of buyer power by certain grocery retailers with respect to their suppliers of groceries through the adoption of supply chain practices that transfer excessive risks and unexpected costs to those suppliers, impairing their willingness to invest or innovate. To address these concerns, the CC made the Groceries (Supply Chain Practices) Market Investigation Order 2009 (the Order). The Order imposes a series of obligations on ‘Designated Retailers’, including to comply with the Groceries Supply Code of Practice (GSCOP). 2. The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) actively monitors and enforces the remedies within its remit, including the Order, and works closely with the Groceries Code Adjudicator (GCA).1 As part of this role, the CMA has considered the evidence available to it regarding whether there are additional retailers that should be designated under the Order and responded to requests in this area. 3. In October 2016, the Government launched a formal Call for Evidence to explore the case for extending the remit of the GCA. In February 2018, it published the response to the Call for Evidence, in which it made several changes that affect the sector, but did not extend the scope of the GCA.

  • Representations of Cities in Republican-Era Chinese Literature
    Representations of Cities in Republican-era Chinese Literature Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hao Zhou, B.A. Graduate Program in East Asian Languages and Literatures The Ohio State University 2010 Thesis Committee: Kirk A. Denton, Advisor Heather Inwood Copyright by Hao Zhou 2010 Abstract The present study serves to explore the relationships between cities and literature by addressing the issues of space, time, and modernity in four works of fiction, Lao She’s Luotuo xiangzi (Camel Xiangzi, aka Rickshaw Boy), Mao Dun’s Ziye (Midnight), Ba Jin’s Han ye (Cold nights), and Zhang Ailing’s Qingcheng zhi lian (Love in a fallen city), and the four cities they depict, namely Beijing, Shanghai, Chongqing, and Hong Kong, respectively. In this thesis I analyze the depictions of the cities in the four works, and situate them in their historical and geographical contexts to examine the characteristics of each city as represented in the novels. In studying urban space in the literary texts, I try to address issues of the “imaginablity” of cities to question how physical urban space intertwines with the characters’ perception and imagination about the cities and their own psychological activities. These works are about the characters, the plots, or war in the first half of the twentieth century; they are also about cities, the human experience in urban space, and their understanding or reaction about the urban space. The experience of cities in Republican era fiction is a novel one, one associated with a new modern historical consciousness.
