Factors Behind Changes in Business Performance

The Apparel Business reported higher revenue and profit due to shorter merchandising cycles, new product launches, the use of social media marketing and e-commerce data, timely, appropriate-volume ordering, rigorous inventory management, and reduced discounting. The General Merchandise Business reported lower profit because, although the gross profit margin improved through appropriate pricing and lower initial order volumes, sales opportunities were lost, personnel expenses increased, and same-store sales fell below expectations.
