In these difficult economic times, many companies are thinking outside the box for ways to improve their bottom line. One company that is trying to do this is Wal-Mart. They are reported to be looking for locations that will be a lot smaller than the typical store we are used to. They are scaling down.
The company is hoping to reach more people by having a number of smaller stores in certain areas. In this way, they can specialize their products more efficiently and reach a broader number of customers. I’m glad they are thinking ahead and wish them luck.
