Smart Cents: How J.C. Penney Built An Empire
Penney once said that there were no secrets to his success, but that the principles of business were simple: “In retailing, the formula happens to be a basic liking for human beings, plus integrity, plus industry, plus the ability to see the other fellow’s point of view.” In 1920, the J.C. Penney Company had over 197 stores along the West coast. Just nine years later, that number had grown to more than 1,400 stores across the country; new stores had been opening at a rapid rate of almost one every three days. Today, the company has grown to be one of the nation’s largest retailers. By the time Penney died at the age of 95, sales for the company he had helped grow finally reached the $5 billion mark. How did he do it?

A friend of mine wears only Armani eye glasses. Of course, the glasses aren't actually made by Armani. Or, if you think about it, designed by him. Perhaps they're sold by Armani stores, but I'd guess most of them are sold in stores that are totally unrelated to the company.
Lesson #1: Make a Commitment to Your Brand
Many before him had tried, but Gallo was able to do something that no one else had ever successfully done before: he introduced wine to a country that was only used to drinking liquor and beer. How did he do it? By building a brand that would stick, and by refusing to abandon that brand in the face of market pressure.

Grocery industry at high risk of theft
Shoplifting is very common in the grocery stores, especially now that most stores have expanded to carry much more than just your stable grocery items. The combination of higher end consumer items combined with relatively low levels of security make it an ideal target for shoplifters. With tougher economic times it is projected that theft both internal as well as external is expected to dramatically increase. With small profit margins grocery stores need to seriously consider the prevention of shoplifting as a key component in reducing losses.

My Retail Furniture Business Closed - Now What?
For 17 years I owned a small group of retail furniture specialty stores in Chicago and Southwest Michigan. I sold exotic furniture from all over the world, unusual decorative accessories and art. The retail stores were like mini-museums with price tags, and we had a great following. I got used to working long hours in my stores, so when I was forced to close them I was left with lots of time to figure out what to do next. The solution I found was in a different industry...
Black Friday – Shop at Wal-Mart and Best Buy or Invest?
Consumers are out in full force today, on ‘Black Friday', looking for great deals at retail stores. Stores like Wal-Mart, Target, Best Buy - all opening at the earliest hours of the morning to get accommodate us eager shoppers. The question for me today was - could the money I might spend today on Black Friday be put to a better use for me and my family's future by investing in something of real intrinsic value, instead of just another consumer item?
When The Brewing Business Turns Deadly
If Kenya's historic Alcoholic Drinks Control Bill 2009 receives presidential assent, this will mean that brewers of such liquor will have to face stringent quality standards and inspections. However with the current enforcement agencies so far being unable to cope in preventing loss of life and blindness, it seems that more has to be done to ensure that the vendors lacing the brews with dangerous substances are stopped.
Consumer Packaged Goods Marketing - Retail Freebies
The way companies market their products are typically similar. However freebie marketing varies with every company. For example, many grocery stores implement freebie marketing by offering free samples of foods or other products. However, retail stores have to be a little more creative -- and willing to spend more money on their campaign.
