Retailers and Retailing | Advantage Lifestyle

Interbrands does it for everyone around the world and because we identify lifestyle options as an important backbone for the teens profligacy re-branded as economic growth, We doff that hat to Interbrand, say a sweet bye to all the brands we have passed on our way into your Top 10 and comment on another obvious which we all shouldn’t be wondering about. That’s about our day then.

Here’s the dear Interbrand Retailer list, and we went down to No. 20 for a reason. Which of these would come back another year?

Yes, this Caption is important. Though if you want the Interbrand’s experienced thought leadership, go here and if you want established consultants in the retail space, well get back to us and we’ll lean in on the names, in your ear.

Seriously, MLM is growing, P&G sells lesser to Walmart each year, Amazon keeps growing in double digits, and oooo..h look at the office and home supplies guys. Then remember size is meaningless during the battle of the hypergrowth vs the struggling to manage growth retail. Then remember Ikea, Lego, India, China, White Label and the auction stores like Ebay..This list is one sure cracker way of buying a rollercoaster ride! Cyber Monday may beat Black Friday but Amazon is eons behind Sam and Apple Store, when is that going to add up its numbers! Macy’s may be back too..

You may write out Dell, but Costco isn’t budging from its stand on price. And then there are 200 urban clusters in China and India is that delicious bite away from opening up on the back of a strong currency. This would be the hot button list all retailers have sunk money into for good reason. And if they start using the real estate value, McDonald’s may still be back, Starbucks too..The 3PL ain’t valuing the Retailer well..the metrics have changed. The East and the West, they are all the same. Without Credit Card debt they are half of what they used to be, global retail sales worth $300 billion from $340 billion and then rising because spending goes on..afresh. A global spending class could be defined for a disposable income of around $10000 to $20000 per year..that’s rich.

That Sam is Walmart with $130 billion, everyone else can drop off and move 10 places up overnight!

Auto Zone and Kohl’s are around too, Barnes and Nobles down at #44 much below the billionaire brands at Netflix and Radioshack.
