今天,著名药妆连锁Walgreens宣布,将在全美范围内关闭200家门店。线下零售业这是真的要凉凉的节奏?
在美国拥有9600家门店的药妆连锁Walgreens最近宣布,计划在全美关闭200家线下门店,大约占总体业务的3%。
Walgreens说,关店主要是出于“对美国市场的地产调整”。
但主要原因之一也是因为Walgreens的业绩越来越不好看,消费者们都越来越多选择在网上购物。
Walgreen上一季度的销售表现非常糟糕,CEO称这是公司成立以来“最艰难的时刻”。也算是给“关店”的计划压上了最后一根稻草。
不过Walgreens官方目前拒绝透露哪些区域的Walgreens门店会受影响,具体关店名单他们也不会公布。
Walgreens的母公司Walgreens Boots曾经在2014年收购了“英国屈臣氏”--著名药妆连锁店Boots,不过Boots也没有逃过“被关店”的命运,计划今年在全英关闭200家门店。
而Walgreens的主要竞争对手,另一药妆零售巨头CVS到今年为止,也已经关闭了46家门店。
当然,不止是美国药妆巨头,越来越多的线下零售商都在上演“关店大潮”。根据USAtoday的报道,2019年还会有这些商店面临关门:
