RETAIL STORE CHANGES-ON CAM

THE RETAIL INDUSTRY IS RAPIDLY CHANGING--

ESPECIALLY OVER THE PAST 5-YEARS.

BUT SO HAS THE WAY WE SHOP.

RETAIL STORE CHANGES-PKG

IT'S ANOTHER DAY AT FASHION VALLEY MALL, BUT WHILE THE PEOPLE HOLDING THE SHOPPING BAGS MAY NOT NOTICE, BEHIND THE SCENES, MALLS LIKE THIS ONE ARE ALWAYS CHANGING.

"The retail industry has probably been changing more in the last five years or so than it did for decades."

MARKETING PROFESSOR GEORGE BLECH SAYS LOOK NO FURTHER THAN YOUR COMPUTER SCREEN FOR THE REASON BEHIND THE CHANGES. PEOPLE SIMPLY DON'T SHOP THE SAME WAY AS THEY USED TO.

"So it's a real challenge for the traditional retailer to figure out how am I going to compete against this new type of consumer behavior that we're seeing."

"It is, kind of ever evolving."

AN EVOLUTION THAT MEANS CHANGING THE WAY OUR MALLS LOOK TODAY. INCORPORATING MORE TECHNOLOGY AT INDIVIDUAL STORES. AND IN SOME CASES IT MEANS CHANGING LOCATIONS.

"The mall business, there's so much that goes on behind the scenes in identifying the proper retail mix to best compliment the center."

AND THAT MIX DOESN'T STAY THE SAME, FOR INSTANCE CRATE & BARREL IS MOVING OUT OF FASHION VALLEY, DIRECTING SHOPPERS TO THEIR MUCH LARGER RETAIL STORE AT ANOTHER MALL.

"Places like best buy, crate and barrel, they're reducing the number of stores. in many cases they're trying to be much more strategic, in terms of their location, in many cases they're downsizing the stores."

"So with all the impact of the internet, stores may come and go, but will the malls ever disappear?"

"I don't think that the mall is going away because as consumers we love to go there. shopping is leisure activity, shopping is recreation." 09:52:23,22-09:52:32,16

AND SHOPPING MEANS SURVIVAL FOR THE HUNDREDS OF STORES THAT MAKE UP THE MALL EXPERIENCE. BUT WHILE YOU MAY BE LOOKING FOR A PURSE OR NEW PAIR OF SHOES. THE MALL IS LOOKING FOR WAYS TO KEEP YOU COMING BACK.

FIRST ALERT FORECAST-WXWALL

THIS WEATHERCAST HAS BEEN PREPARED BY THE NBC2 WEATHER STAFF.

IT IS NOT A VERBATIM OF WHAT IS BEING SAID, BUT IS THE FORECAST FOR OUR AREA.

SUNNY AND WARM DAYS AHEAD

After a few cloudy days across Southwest Florida the sunshine is back, and it is here to stay!

Temperatures overnight will dip down to near 50 here in town with much colder readings deeper inland and across our far northern communities. This is all due to a clear sky and a calm when. That will translate to a lot of sunshine for Friday and afternoon highs are destined to climb into the middle 70s as a result. A light breeze out of the northeast will keep the day feeling pretty nice with comfortable humidity values.

A nice bubble of dry high pressure will continue to settle in from the northwest through the end of the week. This will keep our weather pattern mostly sunny and free of any rain through the majority of next week. We'll also see a gradual warming trend as this cooler airmass begins to moderate. How do the low 80s sound as we head into February?

I'll take that any day!

I suppose they have to measure to get to the people to get the money but all you have to do it take a look and see."

The 86- thousand dollar cost is being paid for by the tourist development council and beach parking fees.

The surveying will take 3 weeks.
