 | | The supermarkets remain at a cost disadvantage to the discounters and other non-traditional retailers, given their higher cost structures associated with operating a primarily union workforce, Fitch said. | | | Competition from other channels won’t make supermarket growth easy; supercenters, warehouse clubs, dollar stores, and pharmacy chains are taking business by offering convenience or drastically lower prices. | | | In a statement released yesterday, Fitch said it expects the supermarket industry will continue to rationalize its store base and lower the costs it can control such as labor, distribution, and overhead while maintaining financial flexibility. |
