Nog eentje die er eng uit ziet:
www.cnbc.com/2019/09/30/heres-why-the...So far in 2019, major retailers announced plans to
shutter 8,558 stores in the U.S., while opening 3,446, according to a tracking by Coresight Research.
Last year, there were 5,844 closures and 3,258 openings, Coresight said. The firm is anticipating announced
closures could top 12,000 this year, marking a new high.
Multiple retail real estate analysts who spoke with CNBC agree, however, that Forever 21 store closures could cause mall owners like Simon Property Group and Macerich more trouble than when other apparel retailers shut down.
Representatives from Simon, Brookfield, Macerich, Taubman, CBL, Pennsylvannia REIT, Washington Prime Group and
Unibail-Rodamco-Westfield didn’t immediately respond to CNBC’s request for comment.
