Editor's note: Dead and Dying retail had this story on their Facebook Page. They said this guy should be running the entire company.

If senior executives in these companies were actually willing to listen to store-level management,
a whole lot more of those companies would still be around.

Kmart tends to do well when there's little or no competition. Otherwise...

what will happen to those few towns where Kmart has none when they all close? I Feel some may be like some Ames towns where they will never have a discount store again or a Smaller Walmart or Target, like The Florida Keys will either get a WAlmart or Small Format Target.

MAdawaska maine dropped to below 4000 ppl and I am sure it will be like what I said of some of those towns that had Ames.

Well, boo-hoo for them. Remember, Kmart is a business, not a service.

yes but it can reach where the service is needed and it thus makes money.
