Sears Awakens A Retail Giant From Sleep And Rises
Don Taylor argues Sears Merchandise Group led by Arthur Martinez is reviving the fallen giant. The plan includes cutting catalogs, closing locations, cutting 50 000 jobs, investing billions in store upgrades, and forming dealer stores with local partners. Sears aims for near 35 billion in FY1995 sales and possibly second in U.S. retail by 1996.
