We're in a brand new retail world where people are focused on saving money, on essentials, and buying only what they really need. Kmart saw positive sales growth during the 08-09 financial crisis. Now is the time for Kmart to be re-opened right across the country. Kmart is a treasured part of America and now is the time for brand new stores offering the best value with a trusted brand. Re-opening brand new, clean stores, with enhanced measures will be a huge success! Kmart can build from scratch and build stores that are set to succeed in a post cover 19 world. These are the moments in history where new companies rise to the top. I still believe Eddie had a strategy and will make Kmart the greatest comeback in retail history. Sometimes things need to be taken small before they go big again. At this point Kmart would be starting from scratch which would be a huge advantage. Bigger chains are hard to pivot, Kmart would be starting from scratch with stores custom built for this new world. Right now Kmart is like Amazon in the 90s: it's all a clean slate! Picture cities that used to have 4 or 5 decrepit Kmarts and Sears with one brand new, 2020 built, clean, modern, Sears/Kmart combo store that makes Target look downmarket!
Stay safe and God bless! We will get through this!
