Here in Indiana, Marsh supermarkets have always been very good. The one I like to go to just did a big remodeling job. In just a few weeks, they went from saying they were closing some stores, to now (if they can't find a buyer by July), will close all of them. Unfortunately, quite a few of their stores are in poorer areas where people who have no good transportation will have no other options.
As I go through various grocery stores, I see that they have endless selections of everything. I see huge amounts of produce that gets thrown out. I think some of the problem is that stores think they have to have tons of selections of the same product and every product in the world available.
Unfortunately, if a chain of stores really cut back on what they sold, they probably wouldn't last long.
What's the answer? We as Americans think we have the "right" to have a huge selection of everything.........cars, food, clothing, hardware, etc., etc., etc., but I wonder if that is unsustainable?
How could Marsh have had so many stores and remodel some of them recently, and now they might have to close them all? It's sad, the number of people who will lose their jobs....and all of them will be trying to find work in the same industry. It's sad.
