美国15万家零售店将被迫关门
2008-12-01
27日是西洋感恩节，美国家家户户正＿备火鸡大餐时美国零售业却是心惊胆颤！不但美国第二大电子产品零售商Circuit City上＿宣＿破产，预计到今年底恐怕有14万8千家美国零售店将被迫关门，对全美零售商而言，最重要的感恩节过后的耶诞购物季，今年恐怕会是7年来最惨淡的一年。过去每年美国的感恩节不但民众上街大shopping，零售业者更是收钱收到手软，不过今年恐怕景气惨惨惨。民众荷包缩水，零售业者更是苦不堪言，美国第二大电子零售业商Circuit City上＿宣布破产，将关闭全美155家分店裁员17%员工，美国市场更预估到今年年底恐怕将有14万8千家零售商店要关门，将创下7年来最大规模。 过去零售业最期待的就是感恩节，因为感恩节过后就是零售业者最重要的耶诞购物季，但今年9月以来所有经济数据都不利营售业，10月零售业销售只有Wal-Mart增加2.4%营收增加2.2%，其他零售业全下滑，创下35年单月最低的纪录。 而8月开始，CPI消费者物价指数已经连续两个月下跌！10月CPI指数变成负成长1%创下61年最大降幅，美国零售研究单位更预测，到明年为止将有25%-40%的美国零售业被迫关门。 洗衣店业者表示，我们现在必须要先关店一阵子，希望风暴赶快过去。店家关门的关门，因为大家口袋都没钱。而根据美国消费报告数据，高达84%的民众耶诞节计画缩衣节食，另外59%的人要减少耶诞礼物的支出，美国零售业怎麽撑过感恩节后的惨澹耶诞季，许多业者坦承：现在挫着等！ Watch those store money cards and gift cards.. and credit slips!
