For those employees who want to remain with Radio Shack, (the company) will do its best to transfer them to a higher performing store in the same area. |
In most cases, it was simply a matter that the traffic in the area was no longer sufficient to support that store. |
Our big initiative was to grow more profitable square footage. We want to make more room for faster-growth products. |
The bottom line is traffic in and around the impacted stores didn't justify the investments required to make sure customers had a great experience. |
This is not an event that is happening tomorrow. Business is usual at our stores at least until May. That's when people will begin to see special sales activities. |
Traffic in the area is no longer sufficient to support a store. The hope is that many of the employees ... will transition to other stores in their market. |
