"50 newsagents closing down each month"
This doesn't mean that he can't have a successful newsagent, he just has to be alot more careful about where he chooses to open.
50 a month is 6000 a year...
50 a month is 6000 a year...methinks there would be few parts of the country where it would be lucrative to open if that is the trend.
I believe Aldi is a pretty complementary business for a Newsagents or even Convenience Store and would say it was indeed more down to being badly run than any competition from a discount food retailer.I suspect 50 a month is a little exagerated. I know of one, close to Aldi, but it was a shabby badly run shop before Aldi arrived.
I think newsagents in middle-upper class suburbs do well.
Where were you thinking of opening Volter?
I think is a good idea to set up a euro-saver shop in recession time.In a recession, how about a euro-saver shop (pound shop) in an urban area with high unemployment?
