Nike CEO says focus on its own website and stores went too far as it embraces wholesale retailers again
cnbc.com/2024/04/12/nike-ceo-acknowledges-it-went-too-far-in-direct-push.html
Quick Glance: Nike CEO Acknowledges Shift from Direct Sales Focus
- Nike CEO John Donahoe acknowledged that the company deviated too far from wholesale partners like Macy's and DSW in its pursuit of primarily selling products through its own stores and website.
- Over recent years, Nike has actively worked on restructuring its business model. Initially focused on selling sneakers and clothing in department stores and specialty shops, the brand now generates the majority of its revenue through direct-to-consumer sales.
- This transition enabled Nike to significantly increase revenue and enhance customer insights through data analysis. Donahoe stated that Nike has tripled its mobile and digital business in the past four years.
- Some analysts view Nike's avoidance of wholesale partners as a misstep that hindered the company's progress in innovation and product development.

99 Cents Only Stores to close all 371 spots in 'extremely difficult decision,' CEO says
usatoday.com/story/money/retail/2024/04/04/99-cents-only-stores-closing-all-locations/73212030007/
Quick Glance: 99 Cents Only to Close All 371 Stores and Cease Longstanding Business
- After more than four decades, 99 Cents Only will close all 371 of its stores and cease its business operations.
- The decision was made due to various challenges, including the COVID-19 pandemic, shifting consumer demand, inflationary pressures, and increasing levels of shrinkage.
- The closure of 99 Cents Only reflects a broader weakness in the dollar-store category, with other major retailers also announcing store closures.
- Established in 1982 in Los Angeles, 99 Cents Only was a trailblazer in single-price retail and faced pressure from rising wages and competition from larger chains.
