Resurgence of retail stores
Many people fear that the rise of e-commerce will bring an end to traditional stores in the U.S. This might be true for some department stores that have seen closures between 2016 and 2018, others however, experienced a considerable increase in number of stores.
As per retail stores, the trend is quite positive. There have been more openings of new retail stores in the U.S. than closure of existing ones since 2017. So, if these results are anything to go by, the traditional stores are here to stay for the foreseeable future.
